all have heard that threshed out
since we were boys, and everyone
has his opinion about it; an opinion
that would take considerable evil
dence or strong argument to change.
With many people, probably a ma
jority, the same is true of the state
wide prohibition amendment, al
though you will see later on I'M this
article that we class it among the de
batable questions.
An instance of the clearly wrong
c-easure is No. 346-347, found on pags
1872 of the Voters pamphlet bill
10 create a board to inquire into the
subject of employers liability, and
appropriating $1,000 for the board to
waste. ALI the information that
BOARD could possibly collect Is al
ready available. This measure is
clearly only stalking horse to help
defeat No. 800 (page 81 of the pam
phlet).

Enemies of the initiative and ref
erendum, particularly the Orego-
ian newspaper, are attempting to
.idicule the submission of these
measures to the people. They say
the people are too ignorant and too
careless to vote intelligently on
measures that concern them; that
all such measures should be left to
he legislature.
The Oregonian has made great
whoop-de doodle-do because. 1t as
,erts, that out of 300 Portland vo
ers interviewed only a small pei
cent had made up their minds how
hey would vote. That, what the
Oregonian says, but a score of ju-
stances show that the Oregonia,
will stoop to any baseness In the
bitter war against the peoples rule. :
But admitting the Oregonian's fig
lrAs to be correct, the same fig
res showed that a large per cent
IF the voters supposed to have been
interviewed were studying the meas
ires, and the arguments pro and con
as set forth i'm the Voters pamphlet.
And that's more than the average
legislator does.
Besides the intelligent voters Of
the state are not found in the
itores or on the streets of Port
and, or other towns. The city
business man is too busy trying to
corral some other fellows share OF
his worlds goods. ito pay any
heed to the duties and obligations
1f citizenship. He would rather be
ruled than bothered, and he don't
care a snap whether the ruler is
corrupt, gangster politician, pub
ic service corporation or king
II he has any preference it is for
he latter.
| People in the country, however
AXE not kindly to bosses or rulers
Of any description. They are cap
able OF thinking for themselves, and
lake time to do 1T. We venture the
assertion that 80 per cent of the
\ rural voters of Wallowa county who
have received the pamphlet, are
studying the measures and argu-
ments. II the Oregonian doesna
believe the assertion lit Is welcome
send man up here to investi
gate.
Was there ever a legislature in
my state i'm the Union in the last
100 years. in which 80 per cent O.
he members knew even the title o.
III the bills they vo.ed on?
We guess not. II such miracle
lid happen, they could make for
tune exhibiting themselves as legis
.ative freaks.
And why? The last legislature
considered" over 500 bills. and had
only a few weeks to do all Its con
sidering, with the manifold distrac
lions OF gay Salem ut midnirht to
combat. And the average intelli
gence, honesty and horsesense OF
the Legislators were not whit high
er than that Of the people. The vot
ers have only 32 measures to coa
slider and more months than the leg
islators had weeks, In which to dc
their considering.
The best test of the fitness oi
the people to legislate is the tesI
OF experience. Two years ago thert
were 10 measures on the ballot, and
not even the Oregonian has evel
dared to dispute the fact that the
results showed the people voted IN
telligently, discriminatory and just
ly. They had their little JOKE will

decent and nee1ful measures were
given handsome majori.ies.
The safest, most conservative force
in all Oregon is the great body of
plain people on election day.
