The tone OF newspaper comment on the fail
ure Of the Connecticut legislature to pass the
ballOt-reform bill over the governors veto, is
dolorous to degree quite unwarranted by the
facts. The lower house proposed 70 amend
the measure by limiting itsapplication to presi-
Dental and state elections, emitting the
municipal elections, in which the pro-
cedure threatened to be cumbersome, and
then to pass it over the veto; but the
senate declined to follow this course, on
the ground that it would be irregular to
pass lover veto" a bill which, in the shape in
which it is to be passed, never was vetoed.
The logic OF the case certainly favors this view.
All the friends of ballot reform have to do. IL
they are really in earnest, is to frame a new
bill which shall be free from the Objectionable
feature Of the one Just lost, and pass ii without
delay. Then the governor would be powerless
to resist the popular will if he wanted to.
The restriction OF the law to state and national
elections would not prevent a valuable test of
the proposed electoral reform in the very
cases in which it is most needed There NAV

the governors objection to the application OF
this involved method to municipal elections

planned that his article on Samoa in The
