So many objections have been reg
istered against the initiative and
referendum that it is not generally
accepted as a beneficial or work
able political doctrine and it will
not be until it proves to do better
than it appears to be doing in a few
of the western states, where it is be-
ing tested.
Among the reprehensible things
that have thus far arisen from this
freak. scheme IS what is known as
the signature industry namely,
the procuring of signatures to petit
tons needed. Under the initiative
and referendum at stipulated
price per name. This nefarious
business is now fourIshing in the
state Of Colorado, whittier it has
been transpla1ted from the Pacific
coast. The business is conducted by
regular signature brokers"
These signature brokers' operate
as the beueacient go-between for all
