DESTRUCTIVE DEMOCRATS.

Word comes from Milwaukee that the
LEGISLATURE Of wisconsin is being held

No excuse rs good can be given

lawmakers are marking time until lh"

lIr Il. Fulton Cuttings suggestion
that the charter for this city, if passed,
should he submitted for acceptance or
rejection by popular vote viii revive
discussion in Albany Of the question
whether or not the Legislature has any
authority 10 order such Il referendum.
The great constitutional lawyers of
the Senate and Assembly were already
debating this subject In connection
with the proposed Buffalo charter.
Some of them, at least. were Of the
opinion that as the constitution does not
provide for the reference Of legislative
acts tO the people, except IN the case
of those involving bond issues, the
Legislature lacks authority 10 abate one
lot of the finality Of It's acts. The con.
stitution says; THE legislative power OF

But this looks like the view of legis.

sire 10 clorfy their office. The power
granted 10 the Legislature would seem
10 be ample to permit it To consult the
wishes Of tho people in matters Of leGlS-

ton Of the constitution TO forbid con

Moreover. this constitutional theory

that referendum was illegal and i'm
proper. or it may be- that lawyers could
find distinction between what was
done in that instance and what l. pro-
rcsed I'm this. But at any rate the prec-

TENDERNESS TOWARD ASSASHNS

The Portuguese National Constituent
Assembly, after decreeinG that the mon
archy should be forever abolished and
the BraganZa dynasty banished and that

be democratic republic, added:
All those who fought heroically to
overthrow the monarchy until victory
was gained are considered benefactors
of their country. and the memory OF
those who died in that glorious enter
prise will for evermore lie held I'm re-

also true, IS Mr. Archer says, that none
"of them was in any way implicated in
