The Sunday Star has hecomc an ardent
advocate Of the referendum as a feature
Of the legislative elements OF popular gov
ernmont.
In this policy, however, the Sunday
Star is advocating a return to the days Of
primitive man, when personal OF tribal
governments were the rule. The days
when no man trusted any other man, and
when al took their part in establishing
the details Of government, were the days
OF the real referendum.
But the government Of today, generally
throughout the world and especially in
this country, is representative govern
ment. The people, by popular election,
delegate to their representatives the duty
Of making laws, and invest them with full
duty and responsibility.
It is true that the referendum has not
been entirely abandoned, even in this
country, and it is not necessary TO refer tc

have adopted it as a part Of their legisla.

rhn rern aar.enhorn.,. 2.

The term 'greenhorn" originated In
this way: The pioneers Of the west
were much given to hunting deer. II
was a fact known to early settlers that
when the horn Of a fawn began to
grow there was a ring Of green hair
around the spot II was considered a
disgraceful thing for a hunter TO kill q
fawn, a cruel act, and the killing time
was regulated BY the growth Of the
horn. There was a sort Of unwritten
law that no one should kill a male
fawn before It's horn could be seen. A
person who was so unthoughtful as to
kill a deer under the proper age was
called a "greenhorn." He was so
named because the young horn Of the
deer and the hair around II were still
green. The use Of the appellation
gradually spread until II was applied
70 all raw OF inexperienced youths OF
persons easily Imposed upon.

BrloI( or Cement.

The authority Of the Directors Of the
Street and Sewer Department 70 enact an
ordinance prohibiting the laying of brick
sidewalks hereafter and providing that
they shall be laid in cement would seem
TO be established by the language of the
law creating the department, which gives
it "sole and exclusive jurisdiction" over
the city streets, "irom building line TO
building line" If this does not include
the determination Of how and Of what
materials sidewalks shall be laid, then
language loses It's meaning.
But propriety should find place even
in the exercise OF arbitrary power, and it
is 10 be presumed that the Directors Of the
Street and Sewer Department will act
prudently in this matter. For instance,
il they decide that cement shall supplant
brick in the construction Of sidewalks
they win doubtless make the innovation
apply TO new sidewalks only, and viii not
insist that all brick sidewalks be torn up
and cement walks laid in their place. Il
might be better in the end to leave the
subject TO tho judgment Of the property
owners, who have to pay for the sidewalks
whether they are Of brick or cement, but
certainly no harsh measures should be en-
ployed.

Il is not surprising that open charges
should be made against President Roose-
welt as q result Of his fight with ex-Gov.
Odell for the control Of the Republican
party Of New York State.
A rather serious one wns voiced by an
Odell adherent on Saturday. II was to
the effect that during the last campaign
the Republican National Committee was
short Of funds, the big corporations being
reluctant 10 contribute money towards the
election Of a man who has shown himself
TO be 80 distinctlvely hostile 70 them.
Therefore, a conference was called at
Oyster Bay, the participants in which
were President Roosevelt, Chairman Cor

National Committees use was promised

agreeing to take care Of that good friend
Of the corporations, Senator Chauncey M.

Since then Mr. Mccormick has been

- - - Year.

Today is the initial day of the year 1906
the sixth year Of The Twentieth Century.
Practically there is 20 difference be-
tween today and yesterday. The days
succeed each other regularly, regardless OF
the divisions of time But the divisions
of time seconds. minutes, hours, days,
weeks months, years enable us to keep
tab on It's progress and to record its epochs
in history
The beginning Of q New Year is looked
upon as an important occasion. It is a
period for the opening Of new accounts and
the closing of old ones accounts that
affect the personal, as well as the business,
life Of the country. More than ever is it q
period Of good resolves, too many Of them,
unfortunately, made only to be soon
forgotten.
The New Year Is the season for intro
spect and retrospect. People look into
themselves, in order TO ascertain their
moral status and benefit by opportunities
Of Improvement They also look back
upon their doings Of the past year in all
the relations Of life, and mentally resolve
to make more Of the young year than they
did Of the old In business life the retro
spect is confined to material channels anc
is directed towards such changes and i'm
provements as may tend to greater hnan
cial profit
In the line Of business, retrospect at
tests the encouraging fact that the yea
1905 was one Of great prosperity and thl
opening indications are that the year Il
come viii be equally noteworthy. Then
is no shadow Of disturbance to cloud tn
roseate view Of the future
But it is not given to the human mint
to pierce the mists Of futurity and clearl.
discern what is to come The only thin
to do is to hope for the best. And Wit
this spirit abroad in the land there
no reason to doubt that the year 100
