VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
MUST BE HEARD TODAY

There is to-day throughout the
United States a greater interest in
public affairs and a louder demand for
a square deal in legislation than ever
before. The people are waking up; in
most of the states they have walked
up to the fact that their government
does not represent them, and they are
determined that they shall be repre-.
sented in their own government.
Not only the voters in mass, but the
individual voter is awake to the fact
that he has duty to himself and to
his fellow voters. He sees that he
can not be represented in his govern
ment unless his fellow voters are
equally represented.
Some big Republicans and some big
Democrats are fighting direct legisla,
tion by the initiative and referendum.
See what happened in California.
Three years ago the Republican con
vention of California, controlled by
the Southern Pacific railroad political
machine, denounced the initiative and
referendum, and then the corporation
legislature threw the initiative and
referendum bill into the waste-paper
basket.
One year ago the plain people CON
trolled in California, and they elected
their governor and their legislature to
do what they wanted done. Their gov.
ernor insisted on good initiative and

non representative government
may be a democratic republic, a
representative republic, or a
monarchy; and it was to guard
against establishment of mon
archy that the provision in the
old Ordinance of 1887 was made
Another consideration is that
the Initiative and Referendum
do not necessarily substitute di-
rect democracy for representa-
tion; they may be limited to pre-
venting representatives from
becoming bosses; and in fact
this is all they try to do wher-
ever they have been adopted,
and all they would do wherever
they are proposed-including
Ohio.
Still another thing is the fact
that a case is now pending in
the Supreme Court Of the United
States to determine whether the
Oregon Initiative and Referen'
dun violates that provision Of
the Constitution of the United
States which requires the United
States to guarantee to every
State in this Union a republican
form of government. "
If that court decides that the
Initiative and Referendum are
inconsistent with this cause, the
Northwest Ordinance won't cut
any more figure in Ohio than
anywhere else; and if the Su-
preme Court Of the United States
decides that the Initiative and
Referendum is not contrary to
the REPUBLICAN clause Of the
Federal Constitution, it is very
that any court will re-
gard it as contrary to the RE
PUBLICAN clause of the Ordi-
nance Of 1887.

THE PROGRESSIVE
LEAGUE OF OHIO
SIGNIFICANT MOVEMENT OF GOOD
CITIZENS OF ALL POLITICAL
PARTIES.
FOR PROGRESSIVE CONSTITUTION
Independent Movement Backed With
Religious Zeal and True Patriot
ism Will Make Ohio Best
State in Union.

No more significant movement of
good citizens Of all parties ever took
place in Ohio than the movement for
a progressive constitution. County
leagues have sprung up all over the
state. The disinterested public spirit
of this movement has been so manifest
that. men are forgetting party differ
ences and are uniting with the relig-
ious zeal of true patriotism to make
Ohio, under her new constitution, the
freest and best state in the union.
The President of the State League,
Brand Whitlock, is an Independent in
politics. The Secretary Herbert S.
Bigelow, is known as a Democrat. Yet
so completely are party lines ignored
that the Columbus Dispatch, in lead
ing editorial of this Republican organ
has this TO say about the Franklin
County Progressive League:
Interest in the Constitution.

citizens in the selec-
tion of delegates to the coming Con
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1911-09-15

At the coming election in Ari-
zona the voters are going to be
coerced by wholesale to vote
against the recall of judges. The
penalty of their failure to vote
as President Taft wishes is that
they will be kept out of the
Union. Just what moral differ
ence there may be between this
particular form of coercion and
the kind forbidden by the cleo
tion laws, is very hard to see.
1t is equally hard to see that
the President has not placed
himself on about the same moral
plane as the ordinary political
worker, who offers to individual
voters some valuable considera-
tion for votes cast in a certain
way. Mr.. Taft once denounced
Boss Cox of Cincinnati and his
methods. He owes Cox an apol-
ogy. He never tried to coerce
voters like that.

Talking of our idiotic system
of personal taxation, by which a
one man making an honest re-
turn pays taxes that a dozen
of his neighbors ought to help
pay but lie about in self defense
because another dozen lie to the
assessor, John u. White makes
side remark that should start
people to thinking that have
brains enough to think, He says
what is the sense of taxing one
man ten dollars because he is
intoxicated, and taxing another
man ten dollars-NOT ONCE, BUT
EVERY YEAR-because he builds
a barn" Think a little.

stitutional Convention and the enun-
citation Of principles for which it is
expected they will stand is a most
hopeful sign. That the first confer
ence was attended by $50 delegates
representing more than a hundred or
ganizations of various kinds is signiti-
cant and the character of the rules
to be followed in the nomination Of
delegates promises a square deal Any
organization that desires representa-
tion may have it; questions are to be
openly discussed and principles adopt
ed; it is the purpose to give com
merce, labor and agriculture each a
delegate, but within the limitations,
anybody may be nominated before the
conference and anybody elected by 1t
who will subscribe to that which the
conference approves. That arrange
ment seems to be about as fair as it
could be made, and it would seem to
be well worth while for all who feel
concern as to the character Of the or
ganic law to participate in the pro
ceedings.
IF the constitution is to be made
over, it should be made over right and
that can not be unless delegates OF
broad knowledge high purpose and
proper sympathies are chosen. As the
delegates for Franklin county are go
ing to act for the whole people Of the
county, it is proper that all the people
should directly or indirectly have
part in the nomination, as well as the
election Of delegates The good OF
this movement, as it now appears, is
that it is showing and developing the
interest of the people in their own gov
ment "

The people of the United
States complain Of monopoly.
Now, just what does monopoly
do to iniure the people? Monop.
oily increases prices of goods or
services that is, it taxes the
people.
Why, then, is not the natural
remedy to tax monopoly?
We have permitted monopoly
to absorb nearly everything;

referendum measure, and their legis.
lature submitted it to the voters. The
voters will approve it because that is
what they want.
The initiative and referendum have
come to stay because the people want
to control their own public affairs. If
they don't want that control, the cor.
porations are wiling to do the con.
trolling. But corporation control in
politics does not mean representative
government.

CONSTITUTIONAL
CAMPAIGN IN OHIO
The Ordinance of 1857 and the
Initiative and Referendum,
as Seen from Outside.
LThe Public, Sept. s. !

The lnitiave and Referendum
mares next has been discov.
cred in Ohio, probably by one OF
the Columbus experts of this
species of discovery In conse-
quence of some decision or other
Of the Ohio Supreme Court, the
inference is made that the Initia-
tive and Referendum cannot be
adopted by any State carved
out of the old Northwest Terri
tory, As Ohio is one of those
States, the people thereof are
enthusiastically advised, by
those mares nest" discover
les, that a Constitution Of that
State providing for the Initia-
tive and Referendum would to
that extent be null and void.
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1911-09-15

What this wonderful decision
may be we do not quite under
stand, nor is it necessary that it
should be understood. Nothing
more is nessary than that it be
known that the decision rests
upon the Ordinance of 17S1
which preceded the Constitution
of the United States. The Court
seems to have held that the Or
dinance restrains State legisla-
tion in some particular coming
before it for decision. Hence
the mares nest" Inasmuch
as the Ordinance provides that
the Constitution of any State
formed in the old Northwest
Territory shall be republican, i"
and inasmuch as representative
government might be abolished
in favor of direct democracy
without representatives, it is
therefore assumed in long col
umns of print that the Supreme
Court of Ohio has knocked out
the Initiative and Referendum,
wherefore there is really no use
whatever, don't you see, in elect
ing delegates to the Constitu-
tional convention of Ohio who
will vote for Initiative and Ref
clauses. In other
words, don't waste your ener-
gies, O prudent Ohioans! but
leave the whole matter to the
Ohio State Board of Commerce,
with power.
