THE INITIATIVE

Unless the voters will inform them
selves upon the various initiative meas
ures, the law is failure and will IN
short time be a detr,ment TO the state.
A movement has been started in Hood
River TO discuss the bills 70 be voted
upon under the initiative at the gen
era, election, but it is not bringing cut
much of a crowd. In TACT. nearly all
Of the attendance at these meetings is
made up Of the warm advocates Of the
initiative measures, while these who
are opposed and those indifferent to 1t
are conpsieuous by .heir absence.
It is this result that makes the initi-
ative menace to public policy. The
theory of the initiative is good. The
fact that the people have the law-mak-
ing power meets with popular ap-
proyal. In the enthusiasm displayed
by the ardent advocates Of the initia-
tive, the possibility that every voter
will net take time to study the various
measures proposed does not occur to
them. The charge is made by some OF
the opponents of the initiative that the
people are not competent to judge as
to the merits of the bill. The menace
is not from any lack of intelligence on
the part of the great mass Of voters,
but from the fact that the great mass
will not take the time to inform them
selves upon the various measures and
cannot, therefore, act intelligently.
The meagre attendance at the public
forum meetings is onesproof Of this.
An inquiry among the votersswill also
prove that very few have read the
pamphlet sent out by the state, and
of those who have read it, fewer still
have taken time to study the different
laws proposed.
While it is the theory Of the initia-
tive that only such measures will be /
as are honest and needed {
measures, which corrupt legislature
will not pass, yet it is a fact that every :
year we are confronted with initiative $
bills that are prepared by selfish inter- i
ssts. If it is a fact that but small
proportion of the voters go to. the polls
With clear understanding of the laws 81
which they are expected to place upon u
