Editors viii soos. Their Bill.

Denver.-The executive and cam
paign committees Of the Colorado
State Editorial Association have out
lined a vigorous campaign for the pur
pose Of securing the adoption OF the
proposed law to reduce the cost OF
printing constitutional amendments
and initiated and referred bills. This
proposed law will appear on the ballot
in position seven in the list Of bills
submitted for adoption or rejection
It reduces the number Of publications
from, in one newspaper for four con
secutiye weeks in each county, to one
publication in two papers of opposite
political faith in each county.
The campaign committee intends to
secure the cooperation OF country
publishers in a campaign Of education
among the readers Of the various pa
pers in the state, through advertise
ments and news stories in their pa
pers and through personal work be-
fore election day.
When the direct legislation prin
ciple was before the people for adop
ton or rejection two years ago the ex
treme cost Of publishing the proposed
measures was one Of the principal ar
guments against the enactment OF
that principle into law. Under the
old plan wherein only constitutional
amendments submitted by the Legisla
ture were advertised the cost was com
paratively slight. Under the new plan
where oil submitted measures must be
advertised the cost was considerably
increased. but the editors. realizing
that this increase would act as detri
ment to the submission Of proposed
bills, have initiated a proposed amend
ment which they claim reduces the
cost to q figure that cannot be reduced
through any other method Of advertis
ing.
