: that the senate did not want.
Crane remhHlell the senator from Lancaster
f that as yet not one hnll ( sug/ested that any

hall delberated for more than n week over
Its 11rollosell amenlments ali the result was
contained on a slnglo sheet of paller. I was

, hail not been harmonious. I was hardly fair
to ask the senate to comprehend In ten
minutes what It took tIm committee n week

Algchl's message was delivered to the 1111-
10is legislature toda ) ' . I Is n lengthy and
careruly prepared documenl , In which n
timely warning Is given against the encroachment - '
croachment of power by the United States I
coimrts
In beginning the governor devotes much
space to the review or time condition of the
various state Insttutons and makes nurnor-
ous reeonmmmiemmdatiomms. Among other things
ho takes UII the queston or capital 111-
Ishment and asks whether time death sen-
( once docs nny Practical good ; I wo are nny
better off lmn these In states which long ago
abolished I : whether I Is not barbarous and
degrading In Its effects amid whether It would
not ba better to hal'o a more ratonl system
of mnnagement or our prisons and abolish
capital punlRhlent emmtiroiy.
On the questIon of civil service the governor -
ernor says there Is urgent mmecd of 1pllsla-
lon that will releve executive ohilcars , both
state and munlcilal , of the constant and overwhelmIng -
whelmIng Ilportunly of office seelers. lie
doubts time wisdom or n system that forever
keeps ! the sle men on the lay rolls , for I
Is not calculated to pro uc ! the highest degree -
gee of proficiency. A mean should bo struck
between the retention of the competent and
the distribution or spoils.
Time governor , ppeaklng or the administra-
ton of justice In large cites , says the con-
diton In business or courts of Chicago ahnoit
amounts to n denial of jus lce. The whole
s 'stem should bo revised alul simplIfied at
once. The governor also calls alenton to
the conditons surroundlnl police and justce
courts In Chicago , which he declares a dls-
grace. The revenue sstem In this state 15
declared In Its practical workimmgs to bo a
Is praclcal workhlls
giant of injustice . The governor speaks at
length or the manner In which the rich es-
cape proper taxaton and urges legislaton
especially looldng to the 11rol1er assessment
of corporations . lie calls atenton to the oct
IJrovhln ( that cOlpanles formed for the
publIcation or neWSlapers shal ha assessed
as the property of private Illvhluals Is as-
sessed. When carefully examined It Is found
that only tIm tangible property can bo assessed -
sessed and many newspaper corporatons
which have not much ' tangible property . but
do n large business in goods that would sell
for cash In time markol and which make
enormous profits . practically escape taxation .
DANGER OF DESPOTISM.
ComIng down to the selement or labor
troubles time governor says the question of
dealing with them Is a difcul one. No
practIcal method of enforcing a decree of
compulsory arbitration has been fotmimd but
there Is .o difficulty In the way of malchll
n compulsor . investigation In every case anti
this alone would be I great preventative ns
vel as correclve , 1romlt ) ' ascertaIning anll
making publc time actual conditions In each
case arouses a moral sentiment that often
forces a settlenment. The governor strongly
urges legislation on thIs subject and also to
prevent laborers being broulht Into the state
by squads , as they generally have to b t
displace an equal number , who being sud-
dcnly thrown out , become n public charge.
Governor Algold speaks In terms or highest -
est conlncndaton or the work of the Illinois
National Guard during tim troubles fof the
past ) 'ear. TakIng up the question or the
great strIkes , he reviews the many reports
wblch hnvo been made and says the placing
of the United States troops on duty In Chicago -
cage under time conditions existing pr sents
a question 'or ' the Ifar-reachlng .mpor-
queston
tance The old doctrine of state rights Is In
no way Involve Nobody for I moment
qu ltons the supremacy or time union. The
great civil war settled thnt we should not
have anarchy. I romalna to be' settled
whether we shall lo destroyed by despotismim.

creasIng central power controle all domInated -
bated by class and corporate Interests. "It
Is n mater or special regret to many or our
patriotic citizens . " says th governor , "that
this blow It free Institutions should have
been struck by a president who was place
In power by a party that had niade local self
government a , cardinal principle for more
than a century. "
"OOVERNMENT lY INJUNCTINS , "
"Oovernment by Injunctons' Is dealt wiLls
severely by the governor , who says the
usurpation or power on the part or the federal
Judiciary has acsumed a form where IL Is
destroying the very foundations of republican
" "vlnm nL These immiumictions. he says are
- . - . . - - - - - - - ' - .

a very imii convenience to corporations when
they can be had for the asking \ corpora-
tiomi lawyers , and thcso were Limo processes
ton to enforce which the president sent
federal troops to Chicago. , Governor Alt-
geld speaks of the nUlerous arrests for
"contempt of courl" made under these In-
junmctions atid of time fact that the federal
junclons goverment , ' In slie of having at hand In I
Chicago time complete machinery of justice ,
found It necessary to retain another attorney ,
and he an employe of one or the railroads
Involved In the strike , and adds : "Never
before were the United States government
' and the corporations or the country so completely -
pletely blended and never before was time
goddess of justice made n mere banlmald
for ono of the combatants I Is evident
that Ir the attorney general or the United
States did not outne all alViSe the policy
pursued ) , It receive his approval and was
carried out through his assistance , "
When the interstate commerce law was
turned out on the courts a few years ago
these same federal judges proceeded to hold
section after secton to be unconsttutonal
until they had male ( time law as harmless as .
a dead rabbit. Then after annulng an oct

the people they turned arounl amI mal a I
a cub to break the backs of the men who

tiomm and our past experience are to be disregarded -

be equally proper for the state courts to dose
so , and we shall son have a goverment by
Injunction from head to toe All affairs
will bo regulated , not by law , but by the personal -
sonal pleasure , prejudice or caprice of time
muliude of judges ,
"Tho marlced featro or the age , " says the
governor , "has been consolldatiosm. As they
grow more rO\'erful these trusts get beyond
the control of the government. Prompted by
