that should govern the state, unmind-

danger and menace they might prove
to the people. Fortunately for all

minority. The sensible, reasonable,
intelligent men of that city would
not hesitate to align themselves with
those of the other portions of the
state in voting against ~anarchistic or
socialistic measures and prevent their
passage. Hence the danger from that

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.

of Yellowstone county haye commit
ted themselves to the principle of the

idence of their sincerity have pledged

ervation obtained, with this differ
ence:
To themselves the people reserve
the right of proposing laws and amend
ments to the constitution and to enact
o. reject the same at the polls, indie
pendent of the legislature, and to
approve or reject any law that the
legislature may have adopted. This
Is the initiative and referendum.
That a proposed law originating
with the people may come before
the electorate for final action it must
receive the sanction of five per cent of
the legal voters of the state, who
shall join in a petition asking for it's
submission. This petition must give
the full text Of the lew asked and
must be filed with the secretary of
state a period of not less than four
months before the election at which
1t is to be voted upon. This consti-
tutes the initiative and provides for
the enactment of legislation independ-
emit of the legislature. Any law so
adopted shall have the same force
and effect as laws now passed in the

are made with very full skirts, not
unfrequently quite plain, or with two
tucks, or fully trimmed. The new
Paquin skirt which of course excites
much comment, is cut in four cores of
the same size, the center laid on a
straight line Of the cloth, which makes
the edge little on the bias. The lower
edge of the skirt is finished by a
wide hem, and as it is very full, a
lily hair cloth founce on the drop
skirt is indispensable in order to pre-
vent the folds from falling around the
feet of the wearer.
Illustration.
This stylish street suit, supplied by
The Modes Fashion and Pattern Co.,
Of this city, is of marine blue zibeline.
finished with small gun metal buttons.
The jacket is closely fitted with mar.
row back and side back cores, the
seams extending to the shoulders and
producing long-waisted effect that is
very becoming. The skirt is shaped
with nine cores which are fitted
smoothly around the waist and hips
without darts.
Fall and Winter Millinery
Is of the most pronounced character,
and the high crowned or Directoire
hat has potent rivals in the long
haired beaver, and the poke hat as
well. The fluffy beaver is both plain
or in shaded color tones, and delight
full contrasts or harmonies are the
usual result. Plumes are the preferred
garniture or mammoth flowers and
leaves, one, or more together, or as a
circlet. Colored leaves may be com
bined with roses or dahlias, or com
pose an entire hat-a small size of
course. Peaches and grapes add their
charm, placed in clusters on black
tulle, or pendant from beneath a brim.
Poke Hats
Intended for street or carriage wear
are quite large, either of velvet or
beaver, with many ostrich tips at the
front, and handsome face trimming,
shirred silk in three tints being espe-
cially attractive. For evening, they
are smaller and of light hued velvet
or white, smooth.fnished beaver, elab.
orately trimmed with shaded ribbon,
flowers and chiffon. The independent
crown flourishes- coming also of chen
lille in the Tam O'Shanter shape, of
fur, or of velvet folds finished by a
buckle, and where silk crown is
used the height may be increased by
an accordion plated silk ruffie placed
around the top of the crown.
