Opposed to Referendum and Recall.

II is proposed that the acts Of our Legis
lature. before they have the force Of law,
should be submitted TO the suffrage Of the
people who would have the right 20 vote.
II L. proposed TO recall or remove an IN
popular judge before the expiration of his
term of office

The election of Senators by the votes Of
the people involves the destruction OF q
strong bulwark against dangerous popular
enCrOaChments. The reason given for the
contemplated change is that many of our
state legislatures are charged with belig
venal and that 10 IS easier 20 corrupt the
Legislature than the whole people. In re-
