FIGHT IS BEGUN
IN sup RENE COURT
Seeks to Put End to Initiative
and Referendum Legislation
in United States.

Washington. d. C. October i.-The
task of trying TO put an end to an
initiative and referendum legislation in
this country was begun in the
Supreme Court Of the United states.
Counsel for the Pacific States Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company filed a
brief with the court. attacking n tax
Ing law of Oregon because II was en-
acted by virtue Of the initiative amend
ment to the State Constitution. which
is alleged to be in violation of the
Federal Constitution
1t is urged hrst that the failure of
the company to have hearing before
the raising of its taxes by the initia-
tive method placed the telephone com
pany at a disadvantage with others
taxed after being heard by the State
Legislature. In this way it was
claimed equal protection of the laws
was denied IL.
The initiative amendment and the
Oregon tax were denounced in the brief
as violative OF the right of a repub-.
lican form OF government. which was
guaranteed by the Federal Constitu-
lion.
Reference was made to the claim
that the initiative method of legisla-
tion is a check against corruption of
legislators.

pany contendef, that the struggle
against abuse and corruption should

and founded on error or injustice"
neplying to the contention that the
initiative is a reserve power for rare
use. the attacking brief quotes from
the election records of Oregon to show
that in 1904 two measures were on the
ballot in 1906, IL in 1905 10. and in
1910. 80 1t was asserted that no despot
or monarch would be permitted to rule
any Commonwealth of the nation, and
yet the "despotlsm Of the multitude
is as arbitrary and complete as the
absolutism of a despot
In this connection President Taft's
views regarding the rights of the mi
nority as expressed in his recent veto
OF the Arizona statehood resolution
were quoted.

The official order of Secretary Will
son. issued to-day, transferred 10 the
Food and Drug Board many OF the
powers that have been exercised by
Solicitor McCabe since July !, 1910, the
chief cause OF the antagonism. It gives
the board authority to determine what
cases shall be pushed to prosecution,
but Secretary Wilson, of course. will
exercise the right of approval or dis
approval
The secretary's order says: Here
after all question relating to citations
for hearings will be considered by the
Board of Food and Drug Inspection.
and the determination made by a ma
jority of that board as to whe Their or
not the citation shall issue.
This directly affects the power OF So
licitor McCabe, who during the last
year has determined whether citations
should issue, after the Bureau of Chem
istry had recommended case for pros
ecution. The new order further pro-
vides that after a hearing has been
held the Board of Food and Drug In
spection shall determine whether there
will be prosecution. The power of
the solicitor is apparently restricted to
the "prepara ton and transmittal to the
Department. of Justice" of such cases of
prosecution.

HOME CURE FOR

Do not waste time nor take chances
of becoming cripple or helpless
sufferer from Rheumatism by trying
to cure the disease with external ap-
plications alone. Such treatment
sometimes gives relief from the
severe pain, or may reduce the
Inflammation of a swollen joint or
muscle, but the effect cannot be more
than temporary. Each day the cause
is allowed to remain in the system
Rheumatism gets a firner hold on
its victim. Purify your blood of the
inhammatory uric acid and then you
will cure the disease permanently.
The system will respond more quickly
and surely to S. S. S. than any other
treatment. This great blood purifier
possesses the penetrating qualities
necessary to drive out every trace of
uratc matter from the circulation and
build the blood up to nourishing
and healthful condition. Only pure
blood can overcome Rheumatism. and
S. S. S. surely creates pure blood:
Thousands have cured themselves of
Rheumatism by using S. S. S., a
medicine made entirely of roots,
herbs and barks; no harmful mineral
enters into its composition, and
S. S. S. is therefore safe for any one
TO use. Write for our book on Rheu.
