Governor Everett ]. Lake In his inau.
gural address expresses himself clearly
upsn matters which are bound to eeanA
before the general assembly at the pres-
snt session, ana 80 might Be expected he
puts great stress upon the need Of pfas-
ticing economy ana kssping deWn tho ex-
penditures. There are appropriations
which the state must make beth to take
care Of acActts and to meet requirsmenta
for the future, but there are ether apr
propristions that win be sought, which
thoaght they are verify in themselves
cannot be made at this time without
plunging the state into unWarranted in
dsbtsdneea. VITA the state under q debt
which has been piled up within & cona-
parativeIy Shsrt time because Of eeadi-
tons which have prevailed, it 10 quite
important that the general assembly
should refrain frem nsediessly boosting
it. And while urging retrenehmeHt and
economy the governor makes perth ent
suggestions concerning the Increasing of
the revenue and the ebtaimmg Of great
sr ehiciency. Certainly where institu-
lions are receiving state assistance there
should be some voice by the state both
as to the MANAGEMENT and the best use
OF the money.
That the governor has given study to
the street railway situation 10 shown BY
the sound position which he has takes
relative thereto. There appears to be
Justification fer Bis beiief that much Of
the difheuitiss are temporary, that there
must be state regulation Of the pub
lie motor bus, that such relief as can be
given ths reads should get serious eeA-
siaesation ana that the interests Of the
taxpaying p9blie and these relying up
on such transportation service must be
given full attention.
The governor believes that the nation
al guard should replace the state 6uard
with provision made for the latter uAtii
such = time as the former comes up ID
requirements, while on the matter 81 pro.

Governor Lake in his address make,
recommendations which cannot be wise
ly ignored By the members Of the leg
islature. He points out the situation ana
the duty TO the state. He plainly tell
them that the legislature is not the plAel
where every request for money sheuls
be granted, bat where due censidefaties
must be given to what there 10 to d,
with and to plan accordingly. He shsw,
that he is keenly alive to the best inter
