of justice. The judge upon the bench should be governed by the law in reaching his conclusions and enunciating his decisions. Under the recall as put into the Arizona constitution he may be recalled for a decision that would be good law but in opposition to powerful interest or popular clamOr.
 As framed the bill of rights, in its provision with regard to libels will prove in time an effective muzzle upon freedom of speech and liberty of the press. In nearly all the states their constitutions provide that upon trial of indict- ments for libel the accused may plead the truth of the alleged libel, and the jury are made judges of the law and the fact. Those two important safeguards are now thrown around the press of Ari- zona by the organic act of the ter ritory. The proposed constitution will wipe them out completely.
 The provision for corporation commission is too sweeping and drastic with regard to some cors porations, and not sufficiently wide in its scope with regard to others. It holds club over the transportation and other public service companies and hedges them about with all sorts of restrictions, while the great mining corporations, alien in ownership, absorbing as rapidly as possible the resources of the state and operating mercantile monopolies, are given scant atten- tion. Those great corporations should be given close regulation.

a duly enacted law before it shall fail in a referendum.
 If a majority is to rule it should raise it's voice in cancelling a law regularly enacted as we'll as in electing legislature to enact such law.
 The same argument holds with regard to the initiative: to be of any real use to the people when a recalcitrant legislature will not enact a law demanded by public sentiment the initiative for enact ment of such a measure should operate in the shortest possible time, and an election should be called within sixty or ninety days so the will of the people may be spread upon the statute at once, instead of having to wait until November of another year. The petition should have a larger per centage than eight, and fitty.one per cent of the total vote at the last election should be cast in favor of the proposed law else it should not become effective.
 As framed in the proposed con- stitution the recall will operate to the dismissal of alleged offending officials without a hearing, without trial and with no opportunity for adequate defence. Will there be justice in that? The people are the fountain of justice. Will they pollute the fountain by precipitat- ing into their fundamental law Sc glaring an injustice? Probably they will; but they should not.
 Again in deciding cases the recall subjects the judiciary to influences which should not obtain in courts

THE LAST WORD.

Next Thursday, the ninth day of February, the people of Arizona will approve the constitution that has been submitted for adoption or rejection. That assertion is fore gone conclusion. This then is the last say THE OASIS will have in opposition to its adoption, and the last word of protest it can present.
 Passing the improbability of the proposed fundamental law receiv- ing the approval of the President and Congress, which failure will deprive the territory of the most suspicious opportunity it has ever had for statehood (except the op- portunity for iointure which THE OASIS will believe always should have been embraced), the constitu- ton is open to many grave oblec- tions, and should be rejected. This assertion is made with all due ap- preciation of many excellent features in the instrument as drawn. But in the eyes of THE OASIS the defects that have been pointed out in former articles, and others included in this, far over balance the promised good in the unobjectionable provisions. For which reason the people of Arizona should reject the present instru- ment, and let the convention frame another which will be a workable fundamental law for government of the state.
 The defects to which THE OASIS objects are many, and will he found serious should the constitution be- come effective. Some of those are defects of omission, which may prove in the future of grave im- port.
 One of the most serious omissions is limitation of taxation. There iS not a word in the instrument upon that subject, and there should be in the fundamental law such 8 limitation. The visionary schemes of the boomers who are a necessary
The oasis., 1911-02-04

adjunct to the growth ot all new states and communities will be found pressing for improvements and betterments on all sides that would be continual drains upon the public purse, meaning constant ly increasing taxation.
 The people should turn down this constitution, and insist upon the limitation cited being included in the new instrument the conven- ton would have to frame should this one be rejected at the polls.
 Another omission is the usual exemption of taxes to the poor man. Nearly all state constitu- tions exempt from taxation $20O or $500 worth of property to the head of every family.
 Under the referendum as framed in the new instrument now pre- sented five per cent of the voters can tie up and render ineffective until the next general election any law passed by the legislature (with certain specified exceptions) no matter how meritorious or how necessary.
 The provision establishing the referendum says that "any meas ure, item or section, or part of any measure enacted by the legislature except laws immediately necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health or safety shall be referred to the people for their ap- proval or disapproval, at the next general election upon petition by five per cent of the voters. In order to give opportunity for such petitions all such laws are not to go into effect until ninety days after enactment". So, if at any time within ninety days five per cent of the voters can be induced to sign a petition against enact ment of any law passed by the l legislature that enactment is sus- pended until the next general elec- tion-November of the following year, which will be at least eighteen months, and in some cases more.
 To be effective and really useful the power to call a referendum upon any law should operate i'm mediately, the petition should bt filed and the election held within ninety days of adjournment of tht legislature enacting it.
 And the idea of giving to five pc cent of the voters the power to sus pend any enactment by legisla ture.
 That would be rule of a minor ity with vengeance.
 Not only should a referendum election be called quickly, but tn percentage of voters upon the peti tion should be higher.
 And provisions should be mad that at least ffty-one per cent o

SIMPLICITY appeals especially to the wom-
~ an. Fear of mechanical trouble is a bug
bear. She often lacks the strength to crank
big and the agility to steer it and shift
levers in crowded traffic. She can handle the
Brush with ease. She never worrie bout its
mechanism. She can control it readily. She
can give herself up to the delights of the road.
What better proof could be offered than the
famous Alternately boys trip, from New York
to Oklahoma after meeting Roosevelt. 9-year-
old Louie drove the car after only three lessons,
and 6-year-old Temple often cranked it. They
never had bit of trouble.
Your boys-or your wife-can drive it as easily.
1t would mean health and pleasure for them.
And it's s1nart~looking little car. too.
