THE REFERENDUM.


Instead of representation we shall have
in the Cooperative Commonwealth what
is technically called the referendum
BY the referendum is meant the sub
hitting all bills of general nature to the
people they are intended to affect, before
they have the validity of laws, as already
exemplied for some years past by Swift
zerland to some extent, both in national
and cantonal affairs.
We claim that this feature represents
exactly the function which the people are
fitted to perform and which it is every
way eXpedient they should perform.
They are peculiarly fitted to perform
this function of ratifying, or rather, of
retoing measures with which our presi-
dent and governors are at present and
Us we contended in the previous chapter
Improperly entrusted while they are
peculiarly untitled for the function with
which they are now constitutionally in
V
qualifications they can know nothing for
offices of the duties of which they are
ignorant,
The people should leave the framing of
laws to the wisest and most competent.
But because | should not attempt to make
my own shoes, since am no shoemaker,
that is no reason why should not de-
cline to buy certain pair of shoes which
the shoemaker has made. | need not be
a shoemaker to know whether the shoes
pinch me or not. Exactly so with laws
| and Institutions The people are amply
qualified to say that they do not maht
| certain laws.
John S. Mill says in regard to repre-
sentative bodies, that their proper office
is mot to make law but to see them
made by the right persons, and to give CT
withhold its ratification of them"
Good sense" and good Intentions" the
only requisites for that function, we

we must, indeed, despair of the Nation
BY the way, it was Robespierre-fo
whom, however, neither the writer of
this nor Socialists generally have any
great admiration--who first proposed
the referendum, by advising the king to
say: MY people, here are the laws |
have made for YOU; will you accept
them"
The referendum is expedient, because
the stability and goodness of all laws and
institutions depend ON their sutabeness S.
We have compared political institutions
to coats that may or may not fit the
backs. The referendum will insure that
1.-THE coat will fit the back in other
words, that the measures adopted are
commensurate with the development of
the people. If the coat does not fit, if a
given measure does not suit them, they
will simply reject it.
1t is eXpedient, because it and it alone
will arouse and keep alive in the people
the interest in public affairs.

STOCKS again Extremely Dull-AdVance
in Sterling Exchange Rates.
NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-The stock market
to-day was again extremely dull. There
was nothing except the advance in sterling
exchange rates which had any influence on
values. Stocks were generally firm early
in the day, but yielded before noon, and the
course Of prices was generally downward
until toward the close. There was no im-
portant movement except In Manhattan,
which dropped l per cent, part Of which
was later recovered. The market was con-
fined entirely to the operations of the room
traders, and the final changes possess little
or no significance. Prices at the opening
were generally to per cent. below the
closing figures OF Saturday.
There were slight advances In the early
trading, In which Lackawanna and Texas
Pacific were most conspicuous, but the en-
tire list soon yielded and the early ad-
vances were generally lost Over one.half
the days business was done In the first
hour, after which the market settled down
to the usual dull and listless condition,
with no apparent movement In prices until
the last hour, when there was sharp ad.
vance Of per cent. in Hooking Valley, the
market closing steady close to opening fig
ures.
Money on can is easy, ranging from 5
to z, last loan at 5, and closing at
asked. Sterling exchange is quiet
and steady; actual business at Ash
to 4Sl1 for sixty-day bills and 4S4 to
4S4i for demand, posted rates 4s2 TO 4s5.
Government bonds have been dull, with
quotations shade higher. State bonds
have been very dull and steady. Railroad
bonds have been very dull and about steady.
