his own death warrant smilingly, and
think he was doing wise thing, if
some smiling petition peddler would
present him a nicely prepared petition
done up with a few blue ribbons and
abundantly "whereased."
The evil is protuberently evident
but the remedy is not yet found. U'Ren
proposes remedy, which, for won
der, the Oregonian endorses. Here it
is;
Before beginning to solicit sigma
lures on any initiative or referendum
petition for constitutional amend.
ment or a general law, or for any local
law for county or district composed
of more than one county, the person,
committee or organization proposing
the same shall file ten printed copies
thereof with the secretary of state, and
also the name and postoffice address of
the person, the members of the commit.
tee and of the organization, and the
amount contributed or promised by ev.
cry person contributing or promising to
to contribute towards paying the ex-
penses Of such initiative or referendum
petition and campaign for the meas
ure. "
With due Difference to the opinions
of so good authorities, we cannot quite
agree with them. It seems to us that
the true remedy lies in making the pc.
tition signer act voluntarily Make him
aggressive instead of pathic. If the
voter has to go to a little trouble to
siga a petition, he will do a little think.
ing before doing it. He will sign any
old thing presented him, but he will not
go far out of his way to do it. This
suggests a remedy Provide for leaving
the petitions at certain places, at the
county clerk s office, at the offices of
the justice of the peace in the country
precincts, or such other places as may
seem best adapted for the purpose, and
make the would be signer go there to
sign.
In addition to this make it a penal
Offense to either pay for securing
names to petition, or to receive pay
or any promise of pay or reward in any
shape for securing such names. We
believe this would put stop to the
work of the disgruntled or the mercen.
ary class that would, and do use the
referendum for ulterior purposes In
other words, make the signing of pc.
tition a voluntary act on the part of
the signer. If a measure is bad enough
that the people want to invoke the ref
endum on it, they will go voluntarily to
the places where the petition is and sign
it, If they do not want the referendum
bad enough to do this, then the law
doesn' need referring. If they do, the
remedy is at their service

SOME LARGE QUESTIONS FOR
SMALL FOLKS.

~ R. FRANK CRANE, of Chicago,
has proposed five questions for
submission to the pupils of the
~ public schools who are IA years
Of age or more. They are:
What is your philosophy of life7
What will you do with the sex prob.
lemf
What about your religion?
What about educationl
What part Of the worlds work are
you going to dot
We submit that is a pretty hefty
bunch of questions to submit, even to
grown folks. It is freely conceded that
our youngsters, who have reached the
ripe age of Ii study-laden years are
abundantly able to write dissertation
on the philosophy of life, and to point
out the path that humanity should fol-
low. Their experience in the school
room under the wise teachings we pro.
vide to the coming generation certain,
ly equips them for a little task like
that. Do we teach girls of ten the art
of caring for babies, and wise them up
about things that their grandmothers
knew nothing about until they were
marriedR Do we teach them about tho
duties Of motherhood while they should
still be playing with their dolls'
Have we not grabbed the poor little
unresisting babies and stripped, meas.
ured, weighed and exploited them, and
gone plumb daffy ourselves over eugen.
les and similar fol.de.rol'
Why not, then, let the world hear
from the lips of the experienced youths
of IA, the true theory of the philosophy
of lifeH
And then just imagine the profound
thought that these wiseacres of IA
would be prepared to dish up for us on
short notice on the sex problem, From
the remotest times the wise ones of the
earth have wrestled with this problem,
and have found no solution, and yet
this is to be passed up to tho young.
sters Of ID years to answer for us. They
are to answer the problems arising from
the relations Of the sexes, before thoy
are fully cognizant Of what sex means
"What About ReligionHn Is another
little question for the primer class. In.
agine the deep insight into this pro
found question that children of that
age would have. Then too, this Chica
20 doctor would have the youngster.
toll MS about education before they
have learned how to learn, As to what
part If the worlds work they are going
to do, every one knows that they ar,
just at that age, when IA, when they
think they arc going to pry up the olt
glohe and put a chunk under II.
II is necessary to teach these thing
and to begin this instruction early, but
with all Difference to the Chicago doc
tor and the Oregonian, which agreel
with him, we cannot but think that tn,
elementary things should occupy tn,
child's attention to later period than
the age Of a. We have in the late
days reversed the old idea about giyin,
milk to babes and meat to the stront
mon, and are providing the pabuluu
for our little ones from the butche
shop.
When this older generation solves ev
en- partially tho sex problem, IL will b,
timo enough to pass the balance Of IN,
question over to the children.
