REVENUE BILL MAY
NOT BE REFERRED

Little Rock, July 5.-No matter
what construction is placed upon the
contention of some that the Turner
jacobson revenue bill cannot be re-
ferred to the people because the en-
abling act of the initiative and refer
endum did not become a law until af-
ter the revenue bill had been passed,
this measure will hardly be referred
to the people. Governor Donaghey is
against the reference, because it will
cost the people over 5000 900 to have
the measure printed in each county
and an election held. In addition to
this, he favors the bill, and points out
that it will not increase the rate of
taxation in the state, but ultimately
lower it. In addition to this Governor
Donaghey does not believe the oppO-
sition oothe bill will ever amount 10
much, for should petitions calling for
a reference to the people become gen
era, it would only be necessary to
come before the people with an explain
alton that it is the corporation which
wants the matter referred, and this
would put an end to the signing Of
the petitions.

IN ARGUMENT
AT KEANSBURG
Association Would Cless
Things Up on Sunday.
Snscin1 to tie EKHN1NG NEWS.

K~eansburg, July 15-Lengthy ar
guments for and against the closing
of business places and the shutting
up Of amusement places on Sundays
were heard at the meeting Of Keans-
burg Cooperative Association last
night. Mr.. Hunter, owner of keans-
burg Heights, an exclusive residen-
tial section, said in substance he was
In favor of closing up games of
chance and the sale of liquor If there
are any, but as to shutting down
amusements such as merry-go-rounds
and the closing of stores on Sunday
would only bring ruin to the place.
w. A. Gelhaus, president of the
New Point Comfort Beach Company,
protested against the stand taken by
the association. He claimed that in
his judgment the association we're di-
recting the Sunday closing fight
against people on his property. Mr..
Gerhaus stated that he was in favor
Of anything hat was for the better
ment and advancement of K~eansburg,
but could not see how by enforcing
the blue laws would be any benefit
but would work the utter ruin of
the place.
The stand the association takes is
that the way things are run wide
open at present is demoralizing to
the morals of the people and should
be stopped. Edward Morris sent a
donation of SO to the association
that was accepted with a vote OF
thanks. Justice of the Peace Ed
ward Compton handed in his resigna-
ton as a member of the association,
stating as his reason that he was a
public official and could not take
| sides In this matter.
The entertainment committee re-
ported that they hade secured talent
for an entertainment for the benefit
Rof the association to be held some
time in August.
Lawyer Henry Ackerson, of Key
port, has been engaged as counsel
for the association in prosecuting the
cases against the places they viii
wage war on. The question of by
laws will be settled at the next meet
ing July 81.

Jersey City, \. J., July 15.-Governor
Wilson made his third speech in Hud-

sion plan of government, addressing
over 1000 people at the High school
building in Jersey City and urging
them to vote for the adoption of the
Walsh act at next Tuesdays special
election. He previously spoke for the
cause in Bayonne and Hoboken and
both cities rejected the proposition.
"Thls is no personal fad Of mine"
said the governor. 1T is something
that has been tried all over the ciyiliz-
ed world. All the best governed cities
are governed IN a plan that is practi-
eally the commission plan.

governor knows how good govern
ments are conducted elsewhere. 1t is

people can manage their affairs
If they choose. If they don't choose
that's none of my business. If they do
want to control their own affairs this
thing will work.
The governor referred to the recall
as "a ~serviceable reminder Of response
bility" and said the people can stand
with watch in hand and call time on
their officials If they do not perform
their duties satisfactorily.
-Niank God I'm in pretty good
health said the governor, land intend
to stay in this thing until the finish.
We should give the majority, the men
who can't be protected by anything

voice in the government itself. The
