Lets see. The late governor re,
tired under a charge of incom
potency and inattention to busi.
ness. The investigation shows
that the state has been robbed Of
thousands Of dollars through the
failure OF the secretary of state to
properly look after the contracts
TOR state printing. The land com.
missioner is under investigation
with threats of impeachment if he
does not resign. Well it is graft
fylng to note that the two stalwart
officials in the capitol, the audito,
and treasurer, appear to ha like

The atrocious murder of Madero
and Suarez in Mexico City last
Sunday plainly shows that the
government of Mexico is not yet in
hands that are likely to bring har-
mony and good government. The
brother of President Maderos was
wantonly murderd in the street on
the day following the deposipg Of
the president. 1t was explained
that IBIS was done without know
ledge or authority from the new
rulers. ; This report sounded very
fshy, and now the explanation
given of the last outrage shows
that the story has been very poor
ly concocted. Civilized govern.
ments will do we'll not to recognize
the new government. until these
crimes are expiated, and assurance
given that the new government is
not being run by murderers and
assassins.

The legal heads are now con
sidering the question as to whether
the legislature has right to amend
a law passed by direct vote of
the people. We shall not attempt
to pass judgment on the question,
but would suggest that if it does
not have such authority we shall
soon be up against it good and
proper. # the legislature cannot
amend such law it can not pass
any law that will conflict with
such a law, and the greatest work
done by legislature is amending
and revising old laws. If our list
of initiated laws continues to grow
as it has during the past few years
there will be nothing left for the
Legislature to do except submit
laws to the people. This could

The Sioux City Tribune says the

The Sioux City Tribune says the
Richards primary law of this state
is "full of discrepancies, direct
contradictions and provisions i'm
possible of compliance" and that
sit seems inevitable that the law
will be declared void by the courts
because it is impossible to comply
with it in the present FORM"
The Tribune is one of the papers
that has talked loud and long
about the justice of the initiative
and referendum ; about the inalien-
able rights of the people to rule,
and has even gone so far as to pro-
claim that when the people have
regularly enacted law that the
courts should not have authority
to declare such law void or uncon-
stitutional. Has upheld the doc
trine that the people by direct vote
should have the right to overrule
the decision of a court and declare
a law constitutional whether it is
or not. The Richards law was en-
acted by direct vote of the people,
and therefore comes within the list
of laws the Tribune has claimed
should be invulnerable from any
attack by the courts. Yet now it
claims that it is the inevitable
duty of the courts to set it aside.
There are doubtless some incon-
sistencies in the Richards law, but
its imperfections are being greatly
magniGed by its opponents. The
discrepancies will characterize all
laws passed under the initiative
plan, as the voter has no opportu-
nifty to offer any amendment but
must either accept or reject the
law as a whole. Hem may favor the
general provisions of the law but
ne has no opportunity to correct
any minor defect that it may con.
tain. The referendum, when pro-
perly safeguarded, may be valuable
but the initiative policy of enact.
ing laws will always meet with un.
surmountable difficulties.

better be done by commission
and we might better abolish the
legislature altogether.

Initiative petitions are being
circulated for a new primary law
which it is hoped to have submitted
to the voters at the next election
to take the place of the Richards
law just adopted. II is noticeable
that the ones who are pushing this
petition are the ones who persist
emily fought the Richards law.
Before inaugurating this fight il
will be we'll to give the Richards
law a trial of at least one cam
paign. Then if it fails to meet the
demand there will be some positive
grounds to work on. Now the op-
position is all based on predictions.

be done by holding special CON.
vention. An exchange says that
If such call is made it will be q.
confession of the wrong com
mitted at the republican national
convention last year, when the
"steam roller" vindictiyely ran
down Colonel Roosevelt and the
progressives." Nothing could be.
farther from the truth. The rules
governing the call of the last con
vention were the same that had
governed every call since 1880.
There has been feeling for some.
time that the southern states are.
given too much voice in the con-
ventions, but no convention has
seen fit to make any change. COL.
Roosevelt controlled the convention
Of 1904 but he suggested no change
He was also the leading spirit IN
the convention of 1908 but be sug-
gested no change. In fact he did
not discover that any thing was
wrong with the rules governing
conventions until after the dele
gates in the 1912 convention had
been elected and he discovered
that he would not control the
southern delegates. Then he dis
covered that the south had too
many delegates. The time to
change the rules had passed long
before he discovered that a change
was needed. The convention Of
1912 was not responsible for the
nature of the call under which it
was held. but it could do nothing
else than organize under the call.

Secretary Fisher has decided not
to move the land Office from Greg
ory to Carter. This is heralded by
the friends OF Senator Crawford as
a great victory for him, but the
grounds for such a claim are very
frail. The request for the change
was made on the grounds that the
Northwestern railroad was soon to
extend its line to Carter, and If SO
the Office at Carter would be more
conveniently located to accommo-
date new settlers. The secretary
conferred with the officials of the
Northwestern road and was inform.
ed that the extension of the road
was very indefinite, hence he very
wisely left the Office where it is.
