erendum bill today by a vote of
30 to Z. Save for three amend
ments, which were accepted by the
friends of the bill, it passed as il
came from the house.
While only seven senators vot-
ed against it on final passage, the
roll calls on various proposed
changes indicated that the oppo-
sition was greater than that
shown on the final vote.
The advocates of the initiative
and referendum had a clear ma
jority on all the questions brought
up during the four hours of the
debate, and, had they so desired
could have forced the bills pass
age without changing "a word.
One of the amendments adopted
was proposed by Senator JOSIAH
Collins, and provides that, unless
the vote on the prevailing side OF
a question submitted to the. people
shall be at least 10 per cent OF
all the votes cast at the election
the proposition shall not be deem
ed to have passed.

DR.. Frederick H. Miliener, inven-

Union Pacific railroad for years
and now he has it down fine.
Two wireless stations are soon

lob miles apart. 1t has been dis
covered that the wireless wave
readily follows the path of steel
rails and is stronger than ever
during a storm. DR.. Milliner says
railroad use of wireless telephony
Will result in a reduction in the
number of railroad wrecks and a
big saving to railroads and ship

The automatic block signals
used by the Union Pacific will
work 100000 times without a
failure says the inventor. The
next time, perhaps, some atmos-

to go wrong, when a train is

stationary until another order is
received. With the wireless tele-
phone the conductor will call up"

In the experiments a man on q
