What the "Fourth" Costs.

The fitting celebration of Inde
pendence day Is a question In which
patriotic Americans are separated in
to two widely divergent parties, one
claiming that II ought to be OBJ
eerved as nolsly as possible, the
other that our national birthday Is
too glorious an occasion 10 be
marred by dim disorder. or
course. we know that even among
those who favor bolsterous OBJ
servance there are many who cannot
tolerate IL themselves, and escape
10 the country In order TO avoid the
tortures of the lawful Fourth; just
as we know that a large proportion
OF the noise-makers, including the
small boy and the big one, too, is
needless, If not ignorant, of all that
our holiday stands for. and thinks
of ii only at a time when clamor
may reign unrestrained.
The figures which indicate the
price that we pay for each of our
yearly celebrations are so appalling
that one would suppose knowle lge
of them would be the most powerful
deterrent to our annual massacre.
This. unfortunately, is not the case.
For the past five years the Journal
of the American Medical Assocla-
ton has endeavored to collect statis-
tics setting forth what the celebra-
tion of the Fourth costs in life and
human usefulness; and although
these are admittedly incomplete
compiled as they are, almost entire
y from newspaper reports, instead
of from records of hospitals, dispen-
saries and physleians-they form
the gravest possible arraignment of
the reeklessness which is willing to
nay such a price for a 'jolly day"
They show that during the celebra-
tion OF five national birthdays. from
1893 to 1907, inclusive, 1853 per-
sons were killed and 22,52O were
injured. OF the injured so suffered
total and $50 partial blindness, $50
persons lost arms, legs or hands, and
1870 lost one or more fingers. But
these dgures, startling as they are,
convey only faint idea of the suf,
fering, both physical and mental,
which went to swell the total cost of
these five holidays; in this we must
also include the weeks and often
months of anguish OF the injured.

a TEST OF THE REFERENDUM.

Herbert s. Blgelow in the Cleve.
land Press has this discussion of di.
rect legislation in Oregon:
Last winter the initiative and
referendum was urged before many
legislatures. In Ohio the fight was
especially bitter.
Danger, dynamite and disaster, .
was the answer of politicians to the
arguments for the new plan.
Oregon has Just held a general
election at which the initiative and
referendum was given a thorough
trial. The people OF other states say
what men shall make their laws.
The people of oregon say what laws
shall or shall not be made.
The politicians urged that the peo-
pie would vote blindly and without
understanding on laws submitted to
them, but the oregon election dis
proved this and showed that the peo-
pie of that state have outstripped
.us all In the actual realization OF
government of and by and for the
people.
At the election Oregon voted upon
10 different measures. The Ohio
and other politicians have been busy
all winter explaining what a mess
the Oregon people would be sure TO
make of this. Let us see.
or these 10 measures nine were
rejected. SO much for their pre-
diction that the people could not
discriminate but would vote every
thing up or everything down at the
behest OF political machine or a
party press.
-'But." said the politicians, "the
people are chan. They will take
mp with every new craze" And thev
never failed to remind the Ohio
farmer that In oregon the initiative
had been used to bring the single
tax to a vote.
But the people voted the single
tax down, Just as they voted woman
suffrage down. WITH THE INITIA-
TIVE AND REFERENDUM YOU
CANNOT GET AHEAD OF PUBLIC
OPINION.
"But the people of oregon are al
ready tired of their experiment. 4"
DO you believe that? Then how
about this? There were four meas
ures submitted which provided for
a still futher extension of popular
control ovW government, and ev-
eryone of these was carried.
The recall was adopted. This Is
the power of the people to dismiss
a public servant in the middle of his
term. proportional representation"
was adopted under which the old
rule of everything or nothing will be
abandoned and minority parties will
be given due representation in the
state legislatures. An act was
adopted which aims to give the poor
man an equal chance with the rich
