Governor in Message States Thou.
sands Of Dollars Would Be
Lost to People.

RICHMOND, Va, August 21.-In a
special message to the general assem-
bly, Gov. Davis yesterday transmitted
a communication received by him from
the state corporation commission set
ting forth what would be the effect in
Virginia should the Plumb plan of
railroad operation be enacted into
law BY Congress.
Operation of the Plumb plan would
take from the revenues Of the state
approximately $224.000 the first year.
$446,00o the second year and $669, 900
the third year. according to the COM
mission. At the end Of ten years it
was estimated that 1t would cost the
state in taxes $2.500.000 per annum, or
approximately Is per cent of the en-
cost the city Of Richmond alone the
greater part of $154.Sss.73. These hg-
ures include, besides revenues from
steam railways. revenues from tele-
graph and telephone companies also.
but these latter represent only a small
fractional proportion of the total.
Should public ownership become
fact through an act of Congress en-
bodying the proposed amendment, 1t
will be necessary for the general as
sembly Of Virginia to provide other
means Of securing revenue for the
support Of the state government and
the public free schools, to pay the
interest on the public debt, to build
roads and to provide for pensions for

In connection with the announce
