Five-Year Democratic Ad-
ministration Ended in
Massachusetts
URGES REVISION
OF CONSTITUTION
In His Inaugural Address
He Would Do Away with
Many State Commissions

Boston, Jan. Give years of Demo
cratic administration in Massachusetts
ended with the Inauguration to-day OF
the successful Republican candidates at
the last election-Goyernor Samuel W.
Mccall and Lieutenant Governor Calvin
Coolidge.
In his inaugural address, Governor Nc
Call directed particular attention TO the
need of convention to revise the state
constitution. "No constitutional conven-
tion," he said, "has been held in Alassa-
chusetts since 1853, and | believe the
time has come when the constitutional
system should receive connected and care
full revision" After saving that the cost
of government in the state has been in
creasing far out OF proportion TO its in
crease in population or in wealth, he
urged that the cost of administration be
reduced by doing away with many state
commissions. Referring to the railroad
situation, he said: "The railroads should
be governed by just laws framed broadly
in their own and the public interest.
The public is entitled to Just, reasonable
and equal rates and efficient service, and
the railroads are entitled to charge rates
which, under good management, will en-
able them to render proper service and
secure a fair return on their invest
ment"

BOAT TURNED OVER
IN OHIO RIVER
The Kanawha Carried SO Passengers and
a Crew of as When Struck Pier and
Then Drifted Down Stream.

Parkersburg, W. Va, Jan. 6.-The
steamer Kanawha, owned by the Kan
awha Packet company, struck a pier at
dam No 10 about. nine miles south Of
here in the Ohio river last night and
sank in 80 feet of water. The steamer
carried 80 passengers and crew of 40
but Captain Brady Berry, who landed
at MeldahPs station near which point
the accident occurred, expressed the
opinion that all had been saved. Since
some of the rescued were taken to the
Ohio side and others landed on this
side of the river, it was impossible to
check up the list Of passengers and crew.
According to a telephone message re-
ceived here, r. n. Beaver, one of the res
cued passengers, said that a life boat
from the packet before she sank and
was rowed to the Ohio side of the river.
He is quoted as saying that when the
Kanawha settled dozen persons were
standing on the roof in three feet OF
water Whether any of these succeeded
in reaching the shore has not been as
certained here.
Captain Berry said that after the col
lision, the boat continued down the river
for some distance before it sank. 1t
then turned over on its side he said, and
foated as far as Lamps Landing, which
is five miles below the dam. He said
there was much excitement among the
passengers. The crew, after the collis-
ion, launched the lifeboats and the res
cue of passengers continued all the way
from the dam to the point where the
boat finally turned over.
The Kanawha left Pittsburg for
w. Va, Tuesday afternoon
with 40 passengers, eight head of horses
and mules and about 45 tons of miscel
laneous freight A number of passen-
gers landed here.

Avoid Hostile Craft

New York, Jan. 6--The Italian liner
Giuseppe Verdi arrived to-day from Cen

in charge of the Verdi's guns, according
to the captain. After the vessel left
Palermo the captain said daily practice
with guns was held, barrels being thrown
overheard for targets. He says he was
instructed to use guns only for defensive
purposes.
