VOTERS ENACT LAWS.

The voting of Montana citizens on
the various initiative and referendum
measuees before them At the recent
election indicates that these reform
laws are working satisfactorily In this
state. No matter whether one may
agree with the conclusion OF these
voters or not, he must agree that the
result of the bslloting was clearly
carrying out what a majority OF the
people desire. Take the primary
measures as an example. The people
OF Montana have unquestionably de.
sired such laws for q considerable
period, and they we're defeated In their
wishes by the machin ations of the
political bosses who feared lessening
OF political power as q result OF their
adoption. The political differences
that have existed between the two
branches OF the Legislature have
enabled them to defeat primary meas
ures, and to considerable extent TO
cover up their tracks. As q result,
through the initiative possibilities,
the question was taken out OF the
hands of the legislature and the bosses
who control it and passed upon by
the people themselves. For this the
PEOPLES Power league of Montana
deserves large measure OF credit.
This result plainly points a course
of action for the future when the legis-
latlve powers are recalcitrant-and, J,
further, it will prove means OF max
ing the legislature more amenable to
public opinion and the pledges OF pl at
forms. 1t Ia to be hoped that the
Power league will continue in exist
ence; and after the coming session OF
the legislature, should that body fail
to carry out the democratic platform
pledges In any way, through that
league the questions should be passed
up to the people for action two years
from now.
In fact, one Of the measures promised
in that platform Is likely to force the
submission of many propositions te
the people il it Is put In force. One
plank of that platform calls for legis
lation which would enable the gov
ernor to institute legislation and pas
1t to the people If the legislature doe
not approve of the proposed law
had such law been in force In tn
past Montana would have had thes
primary laws long ago, for Governor
Norris, and before him Governo
Toole urged them upon the legisl ativ
body. The same plank calls for tn
submission to the people Of bills pass
ed by the legislature and vetoed by th
governor. There is no objection tt
that, but in the past history of th
state there has been less necessity o
this as the governors have nearl.
always been more progressive thar
the legislative bodies.
There is ever lessening oppOsitio.
to the initiative and referendum as 1t
operations are seen ia the variou
states; and the experience OF Montan
although the law here is not idea
but somewhat difficult Of operation
should lead to the broadening OF 1t
scope and to the simplifying OF 1t
