POPULAR LEGISLA-
TON BY CLOSE VOTES

A majority of twenty in a statewide
election certainly does not indicate any
conclusive public opinion on the ques
ton submitted to a popular referen-
DUN. The vote in Maine on the repeal
of the constitutional provision in ia
vor of revision appears to have been
so close that if ten ballots had been
cast the other way there would have
been a tie. The Maine majority was
.00016 per cent of the total vote. This
is sailing very near to the wind. A
referendum, it is true, is the usual
method whereby state constitutions
are amended; and even the slightest
majority is decisive in law. In the
Ease of proposed amendments, how
ever, there would have been required
in most of the states a discussion and
passage of the same by the legislature,
and in many states by two successive
legislatures. In the adoption of gener-
al laws by referendum, which practice
is now followed in several states and
is extending, there is no safeguarding
whatever against precipitate action. A
majority of one vote in a total poll of
"a million might impose il~l-considered
and unwise legislation ON a populous
state; and against such legislation the
veto power of the governor would be

TWO CENT FARES NEXT.
Equitable Rates on Freight and TX.
press Included In Bill Intro !.
duced In House.

Lansing, Jan. 10.-All but three
members of the upper peninsula dele
CATION in the house are pledged to a
2-cent passenger fare bill. Governor
Osborn's message recommending 81
cent fares gave them quite shock,
but they intend to stand pat and to
have the Forty-sixth legislature for
ever remove that dividing line that has
separated the upper and lower .peninsu-
las since Michigan became territory.
Two-cent fares will be the first move.
Representative Charles D. Symonds of
Menominee put in bill of this charac-
ter Monday night. It is simple pro-
posal. 1t merely provides that the up
per peninsula shall come under the pro-
visions of the state 2-cent fare law.
All upper peninsula roads showing an
earning of more than s.. 200 per mile
then will be obliged to reduce to the
2-cent rate.
There is no reason for holding the
lower peninsula roads to 2 cents as
long as the north country lines are per-
mitted to charge greater rates., said
Mr.. Symonds. Michigan, of all the
states, is the only one that recognizes
dividing line. We of the upper pen
iDsula are Disseminated against in al
most every possible way. In passen-
ger rates, telegraph tolls, telephone
tolls, express and freight charges.
Even the statutes of the state recog-
nize this dividing line. 1t is neither
fair nor right and we intend to fight
for the wiping outof this line that has
stood so long.
WIPE OUT DIVIDING LINE.
'The upper peninsula railways are
not entitled to charge more. It re-
peatedly has been set forth that their
expense in the, winter is so much great
err. 1t is not. Why, our trains almost
always are on time, even when those
from the south are five and six hours
behind. The air is dryer, the snow
lighter and there is much less drifting
The whole trouble lies in the fact that
the upper peninsula roads pay no at
tention to Michigan folk. They are
feeders for big trunk lines and they
forget US.
Take the matter of freight. Why
we have big wholesale house in Me
nominee which makes many shipment
through Michigan. What would yo'
think if + told you this company i
forced to carry its shipments out o
Michigan in order to ship them into tn
state at anything like a reasonable fig
ure? 1t is true. This company cart
J its shipments across the river int
J Marinette, Wis, and then ships int
, Michigan where it can have the benefi
: of the interstate rates. Doesn't spea
very well for conditions in our ow
state, does it? l don't know whethe
the railway commission is altogethe
at fault. I understand the statute pre-
vides for greater charges north of tn
straits. But it is radically wrong an
we are going to correct it.

The McNamaras and their kind
have done an irreparable injury to the

but that is no reason why the move

of a few men no matter who they
