THE INITIATIVE

REFERENDUM-If the legisla-

is not liked. a petition may be filed
and the operation of the law is sus-

the people at general election.
Then, unless a majority vote for it,

holes. 1t is a good poker for use on
lax law makers.

PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT
TOLD IN HUMAN LIFE

This department in Human Life
for December is filled with ~incident,
anecdote and episode of the most in
teresting men and women of the
day. Among those mentioned are:
John C. Stubs, vice-president and
director of traffic for half a dozen
big railroads, with a skyscraper sal
ary,-one of the greatest freight
getters the world has ever known.
This dynamo of human energy
sprang from a little farm in Ohio.
His story is a good one.
A prophet of simpler and saner
living, who breaches his faith in a
unique and practical way, is Gustav
Stickley. Through his writings and
his handcraft he seeks to teach men
to distinguish between the essentials
of life and the things that merely
burden.
If genius is the ability to make
friends with your work." then the
man who not only does this but in
duces every one of his thousands of
employees to make friends with his
work, must be a peg above a genius.
The story of w. H. Brown, head of
one of the great industries of this
country, shows how he accomplishes
this difficult feat.
Berton Braley is young poet
whose verse has such genuine wes-
terny flavor that it makes natives of
the wild and woolly" want to go
home to their hills. The sketch of
his varied career from miner to poet
is replete with interest.
Mayor Porter of Kansas City was
a policeman at one stage of his ca
reer, and his climb up the ladder,
round after round, from cop to the
mayors chair, shows that he has
those sterling qualities which make
for success.

Prophetic Words OF Lincoln.
81 heard President Lincoln tell
General Grant and General Meade
toward the end of the war that the
initiative and referendum was bound
to become universal in the United
States" says A. H. Mccormick, Kan
sas legislator and Union army vete-
ran.
"In General Meades tent, while
waiting during a thunder shower,
and after | had delivered a message
to the General, President Lincoln,
evidently continuing a conversation
interrupted by my arrival, turned to
General Grant and said:
General, the day will come, but
it will not be in your day or mine,
when every State in the Union will
have the initiative and referendum.
When that day comes, the people
will rule-the people will rule!" AS
he said this he brought his fist down
on the table with such vehemence
that he overturned the ink bottle. !"
A sprained ankle will usually dis
able the injured person for three or
four weeks. This is due to lack of
proper treatment. When Chamber
lain's Liniment is applied cure may
be effected in three or four days.

The Republic of Mexico was de-
clared Independent February "a,
1921; established as an empire, un-
der Iturbide, in 1922, and proclaim
ed a republic by Santa Ana, Decem-
Der 2, 1922. Iturbide abdicated
March 20, 1923. The Mexican flag
green, white and red-was adopted.
The first constitution was formulat-
ed in 1923 and 1924, and was pro-
claimed October 4, 1924. Guada-
lupe Victoria was elected the first
President.
The Texas revolution of 1886 was
successful, and the Mexican War es-
tablished the annexation of Texas to
the United States.
The Observation-Disclosures in
terventien in 1861, during the Pres
idency of Juarez, brought about the
Second Empire. The war brought
out PoriTiO. Diaz as a Republican
leader. The army of intervention
captured the City of Mexico in May,
1853, Juarez and Diaz retiring TO
San Luis Potosi and establishing the
republican capital. In April, 1864,
Archduke Macmillan was proclaim
ed Emperor of Mexico, and reigned
two years.
In 1863 the French withdrew
from Mexico. Juarez and Diaz reor-
ganized the army of the republic and
advanced on the City of Mexico. The
city was captured on May Is, 1867,
and Macmillan surrendered. He was
court-martialed, sentenced to death
and executed on June 10, 1867. Jua-
rez was elected President in August
and reelected in 1871. He died
July IS, 1872, and Teiada, President
of the Supreme Court, completed the
term.
The constitutional amendments of
September, 1878, led to a revolution
headed by Iglesias. Diaz was made
Commander in Chief of the army,
and defeated the revolutionists. Was
proclaimed Provisional President at
the elections in April, 1877, to hold
Office until November, 1880. He de-
clined reelection, and in 1880 Con
zales was elected President. Diaz
was again elected in 1884, and was
reelected in 1888, 1892, 1896, 1900,
1904 and 1908.
The Republic of Mexico consists
of 26 states, one territory and one
Federal district. The national cap
ital is the City of Mexico. The state
governments like those of the FEEDER
al Government, are divided into
three parts-the executive orGovern-
or, the Legislature and the judiciary.
The Governor and Legislature are
elected by the people and the judic-
larry are appointed.
Mexico abounds in mineral re-
sources. In 1907 Mexico led the
world in the production of silver,
producing nearly $4O,OO0,O00. In
the same year gold to the value Of
$18, 100000 was produced, giving
the country sixth rank among the
gold-producing nations of the world.
Iron, copper, lead, quicksilver, zinc.
tin, cobalt and nickel also are mined
extensively. The value of exports
last year amounted to nearly $685.
OOO, 900. The aggregate capital of
Mexican banks is about 100000
900. The building of railroads is
progressing rapidly. In 1876 Mexico
had 367 miles of railroad, and this
had increased by 1908 to nearly 15,-
