 Americans are not qualified to judge Canadians unless they have lived for a number Of years In Canada We should not judge them by the Can adians We meet on the American side. for there Is saying that "The good Canadians remain at home" which many believe contains a world Of truth
 Should the people of Canada decide that they do not want reciprocity with the United States. that Is their busl- ness: but it will take many years Of penitence on the part of the Canadians to prove they are entitled to any cOn- sideration on the part or the United States in matters Of treaties

IF the initiative and referendum are

For these reasons. I think that the

SAYS CLAUSE IS 4
SHAM and 4 FRAUO
Edwin G. Jones Declares In
itiative Fails to Pro
tect People.

Tucson, Ariz., Feb. AFTER assert
ing that the recall provision of Ari-
zona's proposed constitution is vicious,
Edwin F. Jones. a Democratic attor-
ney, declares the form of initiative
in the constitution is a sham and fraud
and fails TO protect the people. Of the
initiative and referendum clauses he
said:
Ineffective.
"The initiative is limited to the right
to propose legislation to be voted on
at the next regular election, and con-
-sequently it is ineffective most of the
time. 1 think that in endeavoring to
avoid the force of the criticism that
this feature would cause numerous and
expension elections, the constitution
makers have produced a provision
which is powerless to correct the very
situation it was supposed to meet, and
which justifies and requires the exer-
else of such power.
Sham and Fraud.
If the situation justifies the re-
sort to direct legislation because of
the failure Of the representatives elect
ed to enact the needed legislation. why
should the people have their hands tied
for nearly two years? Why should
they not have the right to remedy the
situation, and right the wrong done
at once. l think they clearly ought
to have it, and that the form of initia-
tive proposed in the constitution is a
sham and fraud, and does not pre-
serve the right of the people to COM
pei such legislation as they desire, and
as it now stands is simply a measure
TO create strife, uncertainty and agita-
ton.
Sees Disaster In Referendum.
The same objection is present in
the provisions OF the referendum. with
the added one that as written it may
be used at the behest of small minor
ity to absolutely veto all legislation
by the majority for nearly two years.
Do the people of the state sanction
such course, or did they intend that
a minority Of 5 percent may deny the
other 80 percent the right to legislate
effectively on any subject for one min
ute, much less for two years? I do
not think so. and to my mind the pro-
posed provision is barren of power for
good and pregnant with evil and dis
aster.

THE PRES IDENCY.

In regard to leadership at this time
the Democratic party is very fortunate.
Clark, Folk, Gore, Harmon, Under
wood, Williams, Wilson, and others, are
leading Alright, promoting the public
welfare and endearing the party to the
hearts Of the people. But the real
leader Of the leaders, and of the people,
is Woodrow Wilson. Sound, learned,
and practical, he is man for the times.
The people who have looked to him to
lead are having their hopes fulfilled.
The people have made the issue upon
which the next campaign should be
fought out, and great independent news
papers like the Milwaukee Journal ably
expound it. 1t is, equal rights and pub
lie benefits, against special privileges
trust domination. The Liberals are
forming on the one side and the Tories
on the other. In Liberal victory in
1912 lies the hope of the country.
Wilson is the man to lead.

Mr.. Funk made good on his asser-

told in long distance telephone con.
