ON SOUTH ABERDEEN LAST
NIGHT. MYLES AND CRiVYEA
RESIST IN VAIN. CONTRACT is
LET FOR BUILDING NORTH AB-

The city council slipped one over on

granted a renewal of the saloon license
in that suburb. The Improvement

The Referendum
HAS COME TO STAY
ORIGINATING IN SWITZERLAND, IT
IS FAST SPREADING
OBJECTION THAT PEOPLE ARE
NOT COMPETENT TO USE REF
ERENDUM WOULD PROVE TOO
MUCH-HAD TARIFF LAW BEEN
SUBMITTED RELIEF WOULD
HAVE RESULTED

Says Jean JACQUES Rousseau: Soy
ereignity can not be represented, even
as it can not be alienated; il con
ssts essentially in the general will,
and the will is now ascertainable by
representation. The English people
believes itself free, but it greatly de-
ceives itself; it is not so except dur
ing the election of members of par
lament AS soon as they are elect
ed. it is enslaved, it is nothing"
That was said towards the end of
the 18th century, but it is as true to-
day.
The referendum was established
in Switzerland in the year 1880, but
in recent years its scope has been
greatly extended and it is now resort
ed to if a petition be presented by
10000 citizens or by eight cantons
for the alteration or revocation of a
measure passed by the federal legis-
lature. Any $4,000 citizens may also
demand a direct popular vote on any
constitutional question. On the whole
the use of the referendum in Switz-
erland has generally resulted in the
legislation submitted being negativ-
ed.
1t is urged against the referendum

vote for Cotterill was cast by Sena-
tor White. Democratic Senators Jen-
sen. Chappell and Troy said they kept,
their promises to vote fo rthe choice
of the people and voted for PoindeX-
ter.
In placing the name of Mr.. Pon-
dexter before the senate Senator Hut
Crimson said:
'Mr. President and gentlemen of
the senate: The name | am going
to nominate for the United States
senate needs no eulogy at my hands,
for voice mightier than mine has
proclaimed his fitness for the position,
the voice of the people of the state
of Washington And in accordance
with the will of the people as eX-
pressed at the primaries last Septem-
ber, l nominate for United States
senator Hon. Miles PoindeXter of
Spokane to succeed Senator Piles"
The Vote in the house was cast
on strictly party lines, all but two
of the IL democrats in the house cast
ing their ballots for Cotterill. These
two were pledged to vote for the peo-
pies choice for senator, irrespective
of party.
Bitter Pill for Many.
Voting for Congressman Poindexter
was a bitter pill for many of the re-
publicans to swallow and they did
not conceal their dislike for the duty
which they had been called upon to
<rT% Txr-; to1 II Df
Wray of King announced that they
only voted for Mr.. PondeXter because
they were forced to do so by the
pledge which they had taken. f. l..
Minard of Chehalis likewise express
ed his dissatisfaction and in a brief
burst of oratory said, when the rec
ord of Mr.. Poindexter is read in
the small things will be written in
large and the great things in small
letters"
Harve II. Phipps of Spokane placed
Mr.. PoindeXter's name before the
house when it was called to order
by Speaker Taylor yesterday morn
ing.
Il will not mention the commenda
bic characteristics of Mr.. PoindeXter"
said Mr.. Phipps in his brief nominal
ing speech, except to say that the
people love brave man and that they
have found man of superb moral
courage in Mr.. Poindexter. The de-
mand of the people of the state last
fall was for a man combining the
qualities of diplomat and statesman
with the power of insight into gov
ernmental affairs and into the de-
mands of the day and the future. In
the name of the grandest state of
the Union | take great pleasure in
forwarding the infinite plans of the
Supreme Ruler in presenting the
name of Miles Poindexter for election
to the United States senate"
