to the people and in bringing about
the passage Of . larger number of pro-
gressive measures than had ever been
put through a single session OF any
legislature in the east. 1t is doubtful
that the record has ever been surpass-
ed by any state.
We are not detracting one iota from
the credit due to this extraordinary
man when we say that the achieve
ment set by him would have been i'm.
possible at any other time in the
country's history.
Governor Wilson came into the poll
tical situation after the progressive
movement had passed far beyond the
experimental stage. In his own state
the progressives under the leadership
of Colby and Record had educated the
people to an understanding of what
the movement which was stirring the
west meant to them. Governor Will
son found it possible to do what he
did because La Toilette, in Wisconsin,
and Bourne, in Oregon, and leaders in
many other states had given him the
advantage of their experience created
out OF new necessities.
He had for his working models the
primary and election laws, the utili-
ties acts and the workmen's compen-
sation laws that had been tried in
more progressive states.
And he had had the advantage of
striking examples Of the power OF
honest and courageous executives by
an appeal to enlightened public opin-
ion to force refractory legislatures to
fulfill the instructions of the people.
Let us enumerate few of the more
important measures which New Jer-
sey owes to Governor Wilson:
Corrupt practices act, with teeth in
It," to safeguard the purity Of elec-
lions.
Public utilities bill, with drastic pro-
visions, fixing the responsibility on
officers OF corporations for violations
of the law by corporations, and vest
ing power in a commission to make
rates and physical valuation of the
property of public service companies.
Direct primaries for all elective state
and municipal offices.
Direct primaries for United States
senator and delegates to national con-
ventions, with popular expression of
choice for president and vice presi-
dent.
Personal registration.
Civil service for election officers.
Non-partisan ballot in primaries and
general elections.
Commission government for cities,
including modified initiative, referen-
dunn and recall.
Regulation of cold storage.
Purchase of the right of way for a
ship canal across the state.
Reorganization of the state school
system.
Reforms in railroad taxation.
Workmen's compensation law, pro-
viding for the automatic payment for
injuries or loss of life in industries.
Probably the most powerful COM
ment that can be made on this won
derful program of legislation is that
