REFERRING MEASURES.

Denver.-By the insertion of an
emergency clause in any bill which
it so pleases to treat, the Legislature
may find way to prevent the refer
ring of measures passed by it to the
people and in that regard thwart the
initiative and referendum.
First action of this kind was taken
in the House of Representatives when
the good roads commissioner bill was
passed in that body on third and final
reading including the following clause,
which, is section 13:
"It is hereby declared that this act
is necessary for the immediate pres
ervation of public safety"
Speaker o. C. Skinner contends that
the clause will prevent referendum
on the bill that might be sought by enA
emies of the measure. The clause is
not the ordinary emergency" clause
attached to emergency bills hitherto
but is one that has been used in Ore
gon bills with special intention to pre-
vent referendums. The Oregon SUI
preme Court has hello that bill con-
tanning the clause cannot be referred.
