The school song rendered in the Norwegian tongue was best appreciated by the school, who have come to know this song as it should be known. The duett and the solo by the young Misses Tessie Hoch- no, Mildred GrifTithed and Elsie An drews were well rendered. The piano solo Of MT. Leonard Griffin-The wish was expressed that this young man might have another opportunity to prove himself, for he was deserving of a fuller house. and 1t is the hope that this organization may be. the privileged or the fortunate ones to do so. His eff forts certainly added to the success of the entertainment, The recitation of Miss Martha Thiess and the duett by Miss Bertha Kolar and Miss Carrie Hochna was just what was anticipated and looked for, and their efforis add one more obligation to the officers of this grand work to these little misses. The solo by Miss Marian Wait exceeded all her previous efforts, and when we say this there is much said. The social class rendering of their song Why Will You Wonder and the plano solo of Miss Bertha Kohlar served to prove that the organizing Of this branch will serve to increase the interest Of the girls in the carrying out oe the intentions of the society. The solo of Mrs. Lillian Grif- fin-Mrs. Griffin has been so long before the New Haven public that she needs no introduction by us, save to say that Mrs. Griffin did not disappoint us this time, or has she ever failed to meet the expectations of critical people. Her rendering of the Holy City surpassed anything it has been our privilege to enjoy, and we are looking forward to many more privileges from her. The programme was rather long, for gen. tleman said that the people got their moneys worth long before the end was reached. So closes another effort to do all the good that can be dime toward helping others to help themselves by the Sunlight Sewing school.

in some of the republican counties
it was as high as IL to l. Very little
campaigning was done on the ques-
ton.
In Missouri, the fifth state to vote
upon the adoption Of majority rule,
the senate submitted the question by
unanimous vote, while in the house
the only opposition was by the re-
publicans who declared that the
amendment proposed makes it too
difficult for the people to use the veto
and direct initiative. The Missouri
leaders, however, will accept the
amendment, and use the improved
system for striking out the excessive
requirements. Without doubt the
vote Of the people on the adoption
of the system as submitted will be
practically unanimous. The history
above quoted shows thai there is a
rapidly growing sentiment for major

MAJORITY RULE A WINNER
Missouri Legislature Submits Constitu-
tioaal Amendment

Washington, D. c., March %, 1908,
Especial to The Independent, from
the National Federation for Majority
Rule THE Missouri legislature, as
the result of long and hard fight by
organized labor, the Missouri direct
legislation league, and other forces
for popular government, has consented
to give the people of the state an op-
portunity to vote upon the question
of taking to themselves an increase of
power through % the extension OF
the peoples veto. by means of the
optional referendum, and (2) direct
initiative. This initiative applies to
the state constitution, statutory law
and municipal regulations, while the
peoples veto applies to all bills passed
by the legislature, except urgency
measures, the usual appropriation acts,
and bills where there is a tWo-thirds
vote; also to ordinances passed by
common councils and other municipal
bodies.
Missouri is the fifth state to vote
on the adoption of this system. The
vote will be taken at the next gen.
era1 election-November 1904.
The first state in this country to
adopt the system was South Dakota
in 1898, the popular vote being some
3 to 2 in favor of the system.
Two years later the people of Utah
adopted the system by larger ma
jority, nearly 2 to l.
The third state was Oregon. The
vote, taken last June, was II to 1.
The fourth state, Illinois. In No
vember Of last year the question was
voted upon under statute which en-
powers the people to vote upon any
question of public policy where a suf
ficient number petition for it. The

partment. The government is fur
nishing them this great sum without
interest. 1t has been taken out of
the pockets of the people, in large
part by duties on imports. The
amount collected has been greater
than required by at least this amount,
and has enabled the secretary OF the
treasury to rapidly increase the de-
posit loans to national banks since
1896 These deposits now amount to
forced loan. The secretary dare not
materially decrease it. II he should
do so, it would cause a most disas-
trous financial panic.
A reduction of the duties on inn
ports would not only stop the increase
of deposit loans, but it would take
from these banks what they have. It
is absurd to talk about the tariff
question as an issue until the power of
this financial combination is broken.
There will be no reduction Of duties
on imports until the financial question
is settled.
These Indiana editors ought to know
another thing. Bimetallism is cor
rect economic policy, but it is not the
financial question. 1t is an incident
ito a principle that must continue to
exist even if silver and gold were to
cease to exist. The financial question
involves the policy of delegating the
prerogatiVes Of government to indi-
yiduals and corporations.
/ shall not dispute as to what the
tariff laws foster. | recognize the in
justice of the laws now on the statute
books. But l do insist that the effort
to make leading issue out OF the
question is the same old deception.
Who are they that are trying to sub
stitute it for the financial question?
Every one of those who thought the
financial question Of SO much import
ance and every other declaration Of
the Chicago and the Kansas City plat
forms of so little importance, that they
preferred to have the republican party
succeed. The tariff did not trouble
them much then. Why are they so
anxious about it now? 1t is not be-
cause they are so much interested in
getting the tariff question up, but be-
cause they are more interested in get
ting the financial question down and
out. 1t is insincere and dishonest when
they pretend to believe that the tariff
question, the trust question, or any
other possible question in our politics
is more important than the question
that involves the surrender of the
prerogative of government to issue
money to the control of banks.
