election day for his consideration?
We believe it far better that q legis-
lature Of representative men men sit
in deliberation upon proposed legis-
lation during sixty days than that a
mass of propositions be- put before
the voters to be considered and pass
ed upon in few brief minutes.
The legislature exercised its right
to dispose of these matters as SEEM
ed best to the members, and it Is not
fair to assume that the members
were not acting entirely honestly
and within their proper sphere when
they chose to pass none of the laws
in question. We believe that the
more attention the people of this
state pay to the development of their
state, to improved methods of agri-
culture, to the investment of money
in new enterprises and the enlist
ment of new capital, and the less
they devote to highly experimental
legislation, the more sound and ma
terial will be the growth of the state
in the next decade.
