Just where Kennedys interest on one

appear, but he was very bitter in his
denunciation of it yesterday and very
emphatic in his demands it be vetoed.

OREGON LEADS THE WAY.
lMedford Trhune.l


Oregon people are determined tc
try popular government. Every elee-
ton In the past fye years proves
this. Every time the ballots are
counted the majority for popular
government grows greater. The old
days, the days of partisan appeal, OF
stacked conventions and OF systo-
matte corruption OF legislatures, has
passed away, and there is little llko-
hood of their return.
Direct primaries, popular election
OF senator's, initiative and referen-
dun have come to stay Each cleo
tion the people increase their au-
thority. This year they force a Re-
publican legislature to eject DEM
ocrat as senator, and adopt the re.
call to runish officials who betray
public trust. They pass law by o
tremendous majority declaring Il
the will of the people that every
legislator be forced to vote for the
popular choice for senator, AID
though II is only for moral effec..
II indicates public opinion. They al
so pass a law limiting campaign ex-
pepses, to curtall corporation dlcta-
tlon.
Is popular government failure?
Not where II has been thoroughly
tried. II is not failure In Swltzer-
land, where the initiative, referen-
dun and recall are used to govern
nearly 100000 people. where Of
ficials are simply figureheads to car
ry out the will OF the people. Il Is
not failure In New Zealand, not
fallare In Australia.
In any Of these countries even iE
the monarchies OF Europe. the 'com-
mon people" have more rights than
they have under representative gov.
ernment In America, where municl.
pal state and federal government has
been prostituted for the benefit OF
big business interests and the rights
OF man bartered away for the pecun-
larry advantage OF corporations. who
fatten upon Illicit earnings through
the tariff. through stealing the pub
lie domain, through thousand
channels that divert the earnings
and property OF the many TO create
a few multl-millionaires.
oregon Is the pioneer OF the states
In popular government She "fIes
with her own wings and leads the
war TO the overthrow OF corporate
control that through representative
government has seized possession OF
the resources OF the nation.
