HUMANITY'S FRIEND.

There passed from life in Swift

name few remembered having
heard, but whose work for human
ity was Of character and magni-
tude 10 entitle him to universal
respect. He was a Swiss. Jean
Henri Dunant, father of the Red
Cross"
Such is the worlds carelessness
that one who alleviates the suffering
of millions may 90 to his grave
unsung while another who scourges
the earth with murderous war fills
pages in the history of the race.
In the case of Dunant the mans
work was so much greater than
the man that he had been all but
forgotten in the contemplation of
his splendid accomplishment.
For no mortal could asked a
more natterlng monument thOn the
international Red Cross society.
which through it's various national
branches has reached out helpful
hand to the suffering of mankind
In all quarters of the earth. This
organization is the fulfillment of
Dunant's dream Of fifty years ago.
Toward its upbuiIding he devoted
his life and talents. and if the
world paid little attention TO his
efforts it, not he. was the loser.
Humanity loses a friend in Jean
Henri Dunant. The red cross on
a white background represents his
life work, as it represents civiliza-
tons effort to minimize the
horrors OF warfare.

TAX ASSESSMENTS.

Warren cOunty's new real estate
figures make a very poor showing,
as filed at the office of the Auditor
of Public accounts. The increase
over the old assessments Is only
A per cent. For 1909 the total
was 81 ,4O6.952, and for 1911 it
will be 81, Ass. $40, gain of only
S61,693.
Clarke neighbOring county,
makes a better display. For 1909
its realty values were S2,22S. $50,
while for 1911 they will be
81, ,2S7, an increase Of SILL. 4O1.
or 11.3 per cent.
Both of these counties make a
showing which Is regarded rs dis
tinctly unsatisfactory.
The above, from news article
in the Richmond Time-Dispatch,
is of interest as casting light upon
theassessments, especially fClsrke
county, under the latest assess
ment.
The assessments in Clarke county
are in no way different from those
of other counties of the State-in
that they are not properly proper
toned.
Understand. we are casting no
reflection upon the assessors.
But we are aiming at the entire
tax assessment system in this State.
1t is a joke. or would be one. If it
were not so serious.
We hope some time to see the
establishment of n tax commission
which will,equalize and adjust the
present faulty assessments.
Until that is done there will be
no Improvement. and the people
generally should realize it, in order
that they many urge their repre-
sentatives in the Legislature to do
what is necessary TO secure an in
telligent assessment system.

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.

Soon after the Hon. William j.
Bryan returned from his "trip
around the world he delivered an
address in which he made the state
ment that the Democratic party
should stand for the incorporation
of an initiative and referendum
plank in the next Democratic plat
form, and that, unless the party
leaders endorsed this idea, they
would be lashed from the party.
At that time the initiative and
referendum was little understood,
and many learned editors found it
necessary to turn the leaves of
their encyclopedias to ascertain
the meaning of the phrase. Mr..
Bryan had just returned from those
countries in which the initiative
and referendum was Incorporated
as constitutional measure. and
was most enthusiastic concerning
1t. As it was not clearly under
stood In this country, the Demo-
cratic party leaders resented the
threat of Mr.. Bryan that they be
dashed from the party unless they
advocated it, and it had much to
do with his political undoing.
But the seed sown took root in
some Of the Western States.
Those cities and States which have
adopted it are most enthusiastic
and could not be induced to part
with it.
Briefly, the meaning of the initia-
tive Is, that upon petition of a GER
tain number of qualified voters, the
legislative body would have to con-
slider, or call an election for deter
mining whether or not a measure
favored by the petitioners should
or should not become law. Here
is case in point: At the session
of the General Assembly a monster
petition was presented to that body
asking the legislature to pass a bill
authorizing a vote upon question
of Statewide prohibition. The
body refused to consider the petit
ton, putting it aside upon one
preteXt or another. Had the initi-
alive been in force in Virginia, the
legislature could not have refused
to consider the petition.
The referendum is secondary.
The meaning of this is, granting
privilege to the people to accept
or reject by vote. any measure
which has received consideration
at the hands of the Legislative body.
There are various notifications of
the term, but this is sufficient to

NOnNCl OuN lNSV-
The initiative and referendum is
the purest form of democracy. Ii
confers upon the people the right
of initiating legislation, and of ac-
cepting or rejecting it after enact
ment. 1t is a positive check upon
the legislature which. under the
purely representative principle,
has all power vested in it.
The time will come when Nir-
ginia will adopt at least the initia-
tive, and the time should be
FASTENED, for it is progressive
democracy. In this respect some
of the countries of continental
Europe are ahead of as. Ii IS a
fundamental in the Swiss govern
ment. Not alone should il be APP
piled in State government. but In
municipal or county government
as well. If the mass of the people
are capable of self government.
they should have the right TO
initiate desired legislation. Rep
reSentative government Is not self
government except In theory.
The mass of the people are begin
ming to clearly understand this.
They are capable of seeing where

bat of the few individuals who are
elected as their representatives.
There IS nothing radical, new.
or experimental in the initiative
and referendum. 1t Is as old as
the hills. Get down your encyclo-
psedia and turn t. the term and
observe how ancient. The initia-
tive in Virginia would crcat.' new
interest in things political. for
when the people take unto them
selves the business Of governing.
they would promptly acknowle ge
the responsibility, and would be
less infunced by special interests
and demagogic preachments. -
