Governor's Address and Legislative Reform Plan
Governor Samuel M. Radiston delivered the annual message urging constitutional convention delegates to be nonpartisan and to create a state board of control to oversee penal and charitable institutions.

The address followed a tense partisan start to Indiana's General Assembly session as leaders prepared for key votes on governance and spending.
