INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.

The progress Of the initiative and
referendum is most encouraging to the
friends OF direct government by the
people. The states of Maine, Michigan
Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas. s9nth
Dakota, Montana, Nevada, Colorado
and Oregon have adopted the system.
IN Kansas, Nebraska. California, North
Dakota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Massa-
chusetts both parties have ndorsed the
reform and will put It into law. in
Wyoming, Arizola, Iowa, Minnesota
Utah, Washington, Idaho and Ohio one
OF the other OF the parties has indorsed
the plan. A modified form Of the sys-
TEN Is in operation in Texas. Thus IN
more than half the states the initiative
and referendum is already either IN
operation or is promised.
This progress has been made IN
dozen years, and most Of 1t in the last
halfdozen years. And right now there
is more interest than ever before in the
subject for the states having the direc.

ing public lands has just been taken
out of the Governors hands; in fact
out of the hands of the entire Terri
tory, when In excess of forty acres,
yet a thousand times forty acres, und
err the McCrosson bill, can by the say
so of one man, the Governor for the
time being, be turned over to priv
ate corporation. Really McCrosson
must be a hypnotiser, and no mistake.
The underdog in this Territory has
rejoiced at the restrictions put by
Congress upon the disposition of the
public lands. He has always held up
both hands to support the limitation
of fifteen years for leases of agricul-
tural lands, the doing away with the
power of exchange and the comforting
of the right upon twenty-five men to
call the hand of the executive and
force the prompt homesteading of val
liable lands in the Territory. 1t is
understood certain sugar corporations
are interested in the McCrosson bill
and want water for Kau, and perhaps
still more for other places unnamed,
and yet II is not sixty days ago that
every sugar corporation in the coun-
try was appealing to every voter, how

was effective and many men swal-
lowed their animus against planta-
tons, forgot grievances, and walked
hand in hand with the sugar magnate
to the polls and showed McCandless
under. And within thirty days there
after the reward for so doing is an
attempt, through indirection, to throw
down practically every safeguard es-
tablished by Congress in behalf of the
people at large for the protection OF
the public lands and waters.
How many men would vote for the
McCrosson bill ut the polls, whether
as o. KID. by the Governor or as now
amended by him.
How many men would dare advo-
cate its passage?

]. 7. M'CROSSON and HIS
CONGRESSIONAL BILLS.

II seems time for the people of Ha-
wall to wake up to the fact that things
are doing In Congress that are prac-
tically revolutionary so far as the
land and water rights of this Terri
tory are concerned
II appears that j. T. McCrosson has
been allowed to go to Washington
with the Governors o. X. to bill
popularity considered as authorizing
the organization of water company
to carry water from Hio to Kau
which is in fact bill permitting the
Governor and any Tom, Dick and
Harry of corporation which is au-
thorized to handle water for irriga-
ton purposes, to scoop up the lands
and water rights of the Territory with
practically no restriction other than
what the contracting parties see fit to
put into the contract.
That the Governor hardly knew
what he was about is manifest from
the fact that he had sent series of
vital amendments chasing after his o.
X. now being carried around in Nc
Crosson's vest pocket.
Under McCrosson's bill the sole
check against the spoliation of the
lands and waters belonging to the
Territory is the intelligence and in
tegrity of whoever happens to be Gov
ernor for the time being. The Gov
ernor himself has receded from that
position, and now the check is to be
the Governor and two-thirds of the
Land Board. II seems to be forgot
ten that Congress has emphatically
declared, through legislation, that
there are number of things that
neither the Governor, his whole Off
cial family nor the people of the Ter
ritory themselves can do In reference
to public lands. The hundred and
ninety-odd thousand people in this
Territory combined together cannot
lease the agricultural lands of the
Territory for more than fifteen years;
neither can they lawfully convey
more than thousand acres to any
corporation; neither can they accom-
plish an exchange of public lands in
excess of forty acres; nor can the
Governor and the entire population of
this Territory, excepting twenty-five
citizens, prevent those twenty-five cit
liens from forcing the homesteading
of any public lands not under lease.
Practically every one of these
checks and safeguards can be swept
away according to the McCrosson bill
even as amended by the Governor, by
a private contract between the Gov
ernor for the time being and any cor
poration organized for irrigation pur-
poses.
II Is also to be borne in mind that
these checks and safeguards imposed
by Congress are not the result of an
cient and mossgrown legislation, but
some of them are not seven months
old from the hands OF Congress and
all OF them are up-to-date legislation,
recognized and confirmed repeatedly
by Congress. The power of exchang-

How good chance would McCand-
less have to carry his black flag prop
osition against the plantations and
win out II another plebiscite could be
taken today?
II is said in justification for the bill
that private capital is needed to de-
velop our public lands and waters so
that they may be made fit for the
homesteader, but an inspection of the
McCrosson bill, even as amended by
the Governor, shows that the home
steader must compete for water with
the world, including sugar corpora
tons that unquestionably can afford
to bid five dollars to the homestead
er's one dollar for water. If there is
n section of the people of the Terri
tory that are in favor OF turning over
the public lands and waters of the
people Of the Territory to be devel-
oped by private corporations for
homestead purposes, that should have
btth dh lNSut vi lht ldSl
paign. Let these people come out in
the open and say so. We believe that
they would be overwhelmingly defeat
ed and that the bulk of the voters feel
that even If 1t takes longer, that the
development of the public lands
should be kept directly in the hands
of the Territory: and that the public
loan funds should be utilized by the
Government tor this work. We do
not honestly believe there are a dozen
disinterested men in the Territory
who understand the McCrosson bill
that would vote for It, even as amend
ed by the Governor II private cor
porations wish to develop the public
lands and the people decided to allow
them to do so, the bill providing for
any such program should be exhaus-
lively considered before the elections,
ut the elections and by the local leg
islature and then scrutinized by Con-
gress before being allowed to go into
operation.
In justice to many sugar men II
should be stated that they are opposed
to the McCrosson bill and feel that to
support II would not be keeping faith
with the people at large who so loyal
ly put their grievances behind them
and supported them during the trying
times last election. and the sugar men
who are backing this bushwhacking,
gum-shoeing legislation should quit
and get back into straightforward
business. Meanwhile. nothing has oc-
Cured to justify the notification Of
the express will of Congress-that we
ourselves cannot make away with
these public assets which belong, in
its widest sense. to all the citizens of
the United States and are designed to
promote the welfare not merely of
those now here but those that are to
come. Evidently the hackers of the
McCrosson bill believe their best
chance Is to work by candlelight, with
n dying and discredited Congress dnr-
ing its last throes which, as history
has proven, Is the ideal time for | ills
to be run through without proper in
vestigation.
