DRINKING
FOUNTAIN CUT OFF

Something has been missing at Ninth
and Main streets the last two days.
That something is a good cold drink Of
water. the best and coolest obtainable
in the city. some say.
The popular watering trough near
the Light, Heat and Power Company's
Office was painted a dark green in
keeping with the trimmings of the
company's building. The water has
been turned off and drained out as 1t
was feared the green paint the rain
washed off the side into the bottom OF
the basin would poison the horses
which are driven there to drink.
The hydrant at Ninth and Main Is
the most popular public drinking place
in the city Hundreds passing the
corner on hot days lean over the short
pipe to partake of the bubbling water
which flows in a cold stream. Twenty
five per cent of the horses watered on
the streets are driven to this trough.
Horse troughs have proved popular
for public drinking in all parts of the
city since the officials removed most
of the long curved inlet pipes and
substituted short pipes which permit
the water to bubble up like sanitary
drinking fountains.
Even dogs have learend to jump up
on most fountains to drink, but small
er dogs can only stand and watch
longingly as no lower basin has been
provided for them to drink from as
in some cities. Richmond has one
drinking fountain for dogs at Sixth and
North A street in the library grounds.
AS soon as the paint has been re-
moved from the bottom of the fountain
at Ninth and Main streets the splash
of it's cool water will again be heard
and it's popularity restored. This will
be some time tomorrow.

chimes say that the initiative and re-
ferendum works well in Switzerland
because the Swiss people are all alike;
but that in Indiana the people are very
much mixed and therefore the init
alive and referendum will not work
well in Indiana. Yet the truth is
that part of the Swiss people are Ger
man and speak the German language;
part are French and speak the French
language; part are Italian and speak
the Italian language. But these Ger
man, French and Italian people-who
are the Swiss people-fnd it the best
thing in the world to pass on laws
which affect them all.
The recall means this: If the people
employ a man to do the peoples work,
thinking that man is sensible and hon.
est, and that he will do the peoples
work we'll and hOnestly-if the people
then find out that the man does not
do the peoples work we'll and honest
ly, then the people can call him to
account and discharge him, and en-
ploy another man to do the work.
This is just what a farmer or a
banker, a merchant or manufacturer
does, when he employs man to do
his work. If the merchant, the farmer,
the manufacturer, or the banker can
call his employee to account for work
which he has done badly or dishon-
estly, if he can discharge that employe
and hire better man, why should not
the people do the same thing with
their employees?

the initiative to their national con-
stitutiOn.
Just what, then, do the initiative
and referendum mean?
The initiative means that if the leg
islature will not pass law which the
people want and need, then the people
themselves can go to the polls and
pass that law. If specified part of
the people think that a law should be
passed which the peoples legislature
refuses to pass, that part of the peo-
pie may petition to have all the people
vote on this proposed law; and if a
majority of the people vote for the
law, then it becomes law.
The referendum means that if the
legislature passes bad law which
hurts the people, and if the legislature
will not repeal that law, then the
people themselves can go to the polls
and repeal that law. If a part of the
people think that a law which the
legislature has passed and will not
repeal is bad and harmful law-that
part of the people can petition to have
that law voted on by all the people;
and if a majority of all the people vote
against that law then it is no longer
law.
For forty years this plan has worked
so well in Switzerland that now the
Swiss people would go to war before
they would give up the initiative and
referendum.
We hear that conservative people in
our country are afraid of the initiative
and referendum; yet after forty years
trial, it is the conservative, among the
Swiss people, who are most earnest
for the initiative and referendum.

have talked personally to hundreds
OF Swiss business men, property own
ers, bankers, manufacturers, merch-
ants, laboring men and others of the
Swiss conservative class, and every
one OF them told me that the initiative
and referendum time and again had
saved Switzerland from foolish and I'M
wise laws passed by the Swiss parli-
ment AS matter of course the Swiss
wage-earners are for the initiative and
referendum to a man.
The old party politicians say that
the initiative and referendum, in some
mysterious way, will hurt business.
Yet there is no country in the old
world where business is so steady and
prosperous as in Switzerland; Swiss
business men have less trouble than
the business men of any other country
! In the world.

SALTILLO, Mex, July 16-General
Carranza is willing to meet represent

government, but at the first intima-
tion that efforts are being made to
delay the final triumph of the revolu-

The position of the first chief of the

his supporters today when they learn

ties. had left the capital, supposedly
to bring to Carranza proposals for the
peaceful entry of the Constitutional

him from Mexico City drafts on Paris

Preparing for a vacation is science
as highly developed as that of sitting

an outing is to study the place to

you can take, eliminating the larger
more bulky articles of household and
kitchen supplies, such as the piano.

who has just returned what he didn't

Critics Are Near Sighted.
The most general complaint Is
against the condition of the gravel
and macadam streets. and much un-
Just blame has been placed on the
present administration for their pres
emit condition. These careless critics
have failed to consider the fact that
when the administration came into Of
flee last January the majority Of these
streets were quagmires, the result of
the foolish policy pursued by former
administrations of putting down such
streets in a slipshod fashion and new
er keeping them In proper repair.
For the first three months of this
year it was impossible for the Robbins
street department to give any atten-
ton to these streets, but for several
weeks they have received much at
tention and will receive considerable
more before winter sets in. although
1t is realized that 1t is impossible to
repair the most travelled macadam
streets so as to keep them in salts

Storm Sewers Inadequate.
AS to the storm sewers the hard
rains of this week have firmly con-
WINGED everyone whose basement was
flooded, and they number hundreds,
and who saw the streets in front of
their homes and places of business
transformed into rivers, that there is
something radically wrong with this
system.
And they are not mistaken. In the
first place there are not enough storm
sewer trunk lines, in the second
place these sewers were constructed
in the usual haphazard manner which
characterized former city administra-
lions, and, in the third place, there are
not half enough inlets to what storm
sewers there are to satisfactorily
drain streets when there is abnormal
precipitation.

Removal of old trees, dangerous to

many trees that were rotten at the
