Desires information as

Qualitative and Referendum. -
The Offspring OF the Trades Unions
Regarded by Them as the Com
ing Political Remedy.

To the EditOr.-There appears in the
last issue ol the Copper Journal, an edi
torial concerning the Initiative and
Referendum" as is the law in some States,
and which is receiving careful considera.
tion in Others. While the tendency
would seem to be in the right direction,
il il a question OF just and proper en-
forcement which wil determine whether
or not such law will be of any real ben
eft to the people generally.
In some parts of the country and for
instance in some townships in this coun'
ty, where the machine" has absolute
control, il a man dare sign his name to
such petitions as are mentioned in the
editorial above referred TO, he would be
peremptorially given a chance to travel
in search OF a job before the setting OF
another sun.
Where and how the people will be ben
Gifted under such circumstances is a
point not discussed in the editorial and
which needs further explanation. With
the hope that the editor or some one
equally qualified will give furtberenlight-
ment, | am one in favor OF the enactment
and honest enforcement OF the
REFERENDUM.
The editor OF the News is no labor agi-
tator, neither is he particularly in love
with many of the acts OF the A. F. OF L.,
but he thinks that organization is en-
titled TO the thanks OF the country at
large, for having introduced as he be-
lieyes they did, the Initiative and Refer
endum" idea. which he believes is correct
and will in time prevail.
