THE PEOPLE GOVERN.

But few people appreciate the adj
yantases Of the referendum provision
ct the new charter. This really places
the right of government in the hands
of the people and prevents any legis-
lation which they may consider det-
rimental to their interests. II an or
dinaace is passed by the commission
that the tax payers think is not war
ranted. a petition signed by 80 per
cent. of the voters at the last cleo
ton will result in having the matter
placed before the people at q special
election and legislatiQnt maybe de-
fehted If sufficient number Of the
voters think 1t objectiohal.
This is clearly illustrated by the
action of the people of Duluth, MINI
The commission form of government
was adopted in that city last spring
The commission recently passed a
stringent ordinance regulating bus!
mess which would throw some thirty
cigar dealers out Of business. There
was strong opposition to it but the
commissioners were stubborn and as
u result a petition was circulated, a
special election was ordered, and mex:
Tuesday the people will say whether
they approve of the ordinance or not
This in reality is government "by the
people and for the people"

HYDRo.ELECTR1C POWER.
(Fayette Tribune,)

The Fairmont West Virginian con-
tributes to the discussion concerning
the power dams a very able editorial,
in which it raises an issue that has
been lying under the surface Of the
opposition, for some time.
The West Virginian asks If 1t Is
not the rival power companies that
are exciting the public about the pos
sibilities OF danger in the big dams?
and the closer the subject is search
ed for meaning, the more apparent
this accusation seems.
There need be no fear that the
Public Service Commission will per-
init the construction of a dam that
will prove a menace to the public. 1t
will be its business to know that the
dams that are proposed not only have
the appearance Of safety, but actual
" are safe and that the peace OF the
public mind shall not be disturbed
It will likewise be the business Of
the Public Service Commission to
know that the lands Of the people are
not confiscated to afford pooling
basins for the power companies and II
the commission by any lack Of per.
ception or of duty should fail in this
function Of its office. the courts are
always open for the redress o.
wrongs. The new plan of furnishing
and distributing power by means oil
hydro-electric plants Is not coming
revolution. 1t is here. 1t Is part Of
the great national plan of conserva'
ton about which great attention has
been paid in the, congress and in all
of the political conventions in late
years.
The puny efforts of the blockaders
will be OF no avail and Of but short
duration. ..
Let the state protect against the
danger Of inadequate construction OF
improper materials; let the conven'
fence of the people be compelled by
an adequate distribution Of the
power; then let the power compa'
MES proceed undisturbed in the prog
ress of their great undertaking.

There is much complaint about
the fact that there is no registra-
ton in the city elections. The rea-
son is that the old charter is as ST.
lent as a clam on the subject Of reg
istration. The new charter provides
for registration and says the COM
missioners SHALL provide for suit
able registration Of voters. II you
want fair elections vote for the char
ter which provides for registration.
If you do not want to have regis
tration, vote for the continuance Of
the old system. 1t is up to the vot-
ers of Fairmont to decide.
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1913-09-13

We lose our patience, almost with
some people who "cuss" the present
council and still say they are going
to vote against the new charter,
when they could by voting for it
put every one of them out of the city
hall January 1, with long unexpired
terms, to serve and many months Of
salary money in sight. If You mean
it when you talk about the council,
vote for the charter and get a
change. If you are only joking, vote
against the charter and let them
continue in office.

The owners of much of this prop"
erty are willing to come in and share
the benefits offered by the corpora
ton and pay their proportion of the
tax. There are some others who are
not willing to be so liberal but who
are getting without paying for them
the advantages offered byAthe city in
the way Of water and other improve
ments. There are still others who do
not want to come in because the plan
of government does not meet with
their approval. Would it not be show
ing good business judgment to en-
large the city now while the oppor-
tunity is given and then settle any
difference that might arise over the
plan OF government later? This is a
matter that is susceptible Of amend
ment or change at every session OF the
legislature but it isdoubtful If there
will in years be another Greater Fair
