THE WATER QUESTION AGAIN.

Now that the water question is again
before this public it should have calm
and Unconditional consideration. 1t
should not again be treated from the
standpoint of prejudice for or against
any system. Nor should the miserable
evasive argument of the satisfaction Of
OLD timers with the old system be any
more advanced.
Sacramento is to be a modern city,
abreast with the times, the discoveries
OF science and the development of scien-
-tific knowledge. It must be what a
modern city should be, or retrograde
and decay. There is no city in the
State of equal importance that is in
greater need of a correct water sys-
tenn for domestic uses and for the ex-
tiDguishing of conflagrations. But, as
matters now stand our eggs are all in
one basket. We depend upon the life
and hap of single piece of machin-
cry for sufficient water supply. We
need first a better system. and sec
oEdly one SO arranged that the city
will not be in constant peril Of break
down of one set of machinery.
To the end in view therefore, wher
a new system is set I'D it should he

DOES THE REFERENDUM FAIL;

LII l1llS COQnly IICIc NC1C Cast cll l1lC
late election 9,4S6 ballots. The highest
vote on any one of the propositions
, submitted regarding the constitutional
amendments was 4.345. considerably
less than half of the total vote.
This would indicate the failure of
the referendum in one direction. Here
we have less than half of the voters
taking concern in the matter. Yet the
people of this county are representative
of as good an order of intelligence as
in any county in the State.
Under the law, of which the people
must be assumed to be well informed,
only those votes cast upon referred
proposition are counted in determining 6
is concerned, if it's votes determined
the fate of questions submitted, a ma
jority of less than one-half of the
voters could amend the organic law,
upset the State system and reform it.
The question arises, then, is the ref
erendum as we have it either a safe
or a practicable system Of legis-
lating? We think not. If, on
the other hand, a majority of all
the voters registered, or even a ma-
jority of those voting, were to be
counted in ascertaining the outcome of
a submitted proposition, then 4,124
votes would have been required in this
county instead of 2.173 to amend the
Constitution, or to call a constitutional
convention, or to approve or disapprove
of a submitted statute
When the returns are all in it is prob
able that about the same showing will
be made in all the counties. and in
gross for the whole State, namely, that
less than half the voters of the State
acted upon the submitted propositions
concerning the patching up of the Con-
stitution.
In 1896 the highest total vote upon
any one Of the submitted constitutional
amendments was 274, 4,454, being the
yes and mo" vote upon proposition
No. 6 submitted in that year. In that
case 123, 728 votes would have amend
ed or have refused to amend. But for
Presidential Electors in 1896, 299, 1SS
votes were cast in California, and a
majority Of that figure would be 49,
S95. Here, then, there was more nearly
an expression by all the voters voting
at the election than in 1898. This would
indicate that in 1896 in at least one
instance the referendum was nearly
an expression of all the voters. But
at that same election in 1896 for and
against one of the amendments only
ia 794 votes were cast, so that a ma
jority in that case would have been
S7,39S, instead of 149, ,S95.
This fairly presents the operation OF
the referendum in two election years
upon constitutional amendments. The
showing is not favorable to the present
system of ascertaining the desires OF
the people upon legislative questions
1t shows that upon some exceedingly
agitated question very nearly the full
vote can be drawn out, but as a rule
not half Of the voters express them
selves upon submitted propositions
concerning legislation, whereas the
theory upon which the referendum pro.
ceeds is that it will secure the full ex.
preston Of all the voters of a com
munity.
