PRESSING THE LIMIT

DR.. Wiley's talk here wns breezy
one, and he delivered many striking
aphorisms; he set the mark Of official
protection TO the citizens very high;
but most men would rather escape 30
much surveillance and interference. IT
is all right and desirable for the Gov
ernment to see that all preparations put
up either for foods or medicines must
be pure, and must honestly say what
they are made Of; but when, in the
present somewhat uncertnin develop
ment Of hygienic science and SANTA
ton, any one says that ga community
that permits single citizen to die OF
preventable disease is a murderer,
that Is not pressing. tho button, it is
pressing the limit; surveillance, guld'
ance, and distinction which that i'm
plies, exercised by the community upon
tho individual. might make death wei
come relief TO him.

A CASE OF REFERENDUM,

There IS from time TO time curious
example Of the application OF the
referendum which is so much advocated
An instance Of this we find detailed IN
the st. Louis Times, where it appears
that certain mills in ST. Louis desire
TO erect a 100000 addition to their
plant, but IN order to make that addi-
ton serviceable it is necessary that
there shall be a short railroad switch
put in. The construction OF such q
switch, however, it appears, must neces-
sarily be submitted to q vote of the
people before it can be allowed. Just
why the people OF the whole city OF
st. Louis should be compelled to vote
on a small local improvement like
that, does not appear; yet such is the
case, as we gather from the editorial in
the Times. It's setting forth Of the
matter is concise and clear, and we can
not do better than to copy it as follows;
The Purina Mills at Eighth and Gratiot
streets arc seeking to enlarge this i'm
portant business by tho erection of n
5000. 900 addition. A short railroad switch
is necessary to connect the two divisions
OF the plant.
Under the new initiative and referen-
dunn law, It Is necessary to submit to all
the voters of ST. Louis the question
OF whether this switch can be laid. The
cost OF an election is Approximately
$50, 900. or course II will be impossible
for all the voters to visit the Purlna
Mills and personally examine the plans
for the proposed switch II they dId,
they would hardly understand It, not be-
ing as body. civil engineers and con-
tractors.
Meanwhile. the Purina Mill enlarge
ment plans must rest until the question
is digested, We hope that the courts
will act promptly and In very definite
language when this particular test case
Is put UP to them.
At the same time. It would be inter
estine to know whether there was any
responsibility back Of the ridiculous ini-
tiatlve law which now threatens the city
in vital way. We think that there was
not.

HEADING OFF A PERIL.

After three days debate and wrang-
ling. the Senate yesterday passed the
resolution introduced by Senator John
D. Works Of California, proposing an
amendment TO the Federal Constitution
with regard TO the Presidential term.
The resolution as adopted by the
Senate provides for a single six-year
Presidential term, with no reelection
for anybody who has been President. A
great many amendments were offered,
including one, which would, in fact,
have entirely changed tho foundation
principle Of our governmental struc-
ture. by allowing Of the election Of the
President by direct popular vote This,
fortunately. was voted down Many
other amendments were proposed, but
all were defeated; and on the final
vote the Works resolution passed by a
vote of forty-seven Go twenty-three. be-
ing one more than the necessary two
thirds.
The resolution now goes to the House,
where it will probably be concurred in
hANhpuL bluJh ODHNEibipus
Tho resolution ought to DC adopted
by the States, the concurrence of three
fourths Of which is necessary in order
to make the proposed amendment a part
OF the Constitution.
We consider that we have had IN
the past an ideal freedom in this re-
spect. There has been up to last year
a complete concurrence in respect TO the
tradition that forbade the reelection
of President after he had served two
full terms or term nnd part Of n
term. Col Roosevelt himself gave In
his adherence to this tradition, but
afterwards withdrew it and became an
active candidate in spite of it.
It Is the ideal situation whom the
people can elect whom they choose for
President; but In these strenuous times
the people are not allowed TO do their
own thinking or propose their own can
didates, but ambitious men come to tho
front. regardless of tradition, Of pre-
cedent, of custom, and take advantage
OF the lack OF restriction on possible
Presidential terms. So that to leave
the matter open, ms it has been, might
invite dictatorship. This idea was
scoffed in the Senate, but so, as was
very justly said, it has always been
scoffed at by every free people until
they got the dictator, and then it was
too late.
The necessity for this restriction
having been clearly proved by the oc-
currences OF the past year, the proper
thing for the House of Representatives
to do Is to promptly concur In the pass
age Of this resolution and then for the
States as promptly to ratify 1t.
