certain curate was of painfully nervous
temperament, and in consequence was constantly
making awkward remarks-intended as compi-
ments-to the bishop and others.
Having distinguished himself in an unusual
degree during a gathering of clergy at after
noon tea, he was taken to task for his failings by
a senior curate, who was one of his companions
on the way home.
Look here said Simms, the senior, decided
ly, you are a donkey. Why can't you keep quiet
instead of speaking your asinine remarks? am
speaking to you now as brother"

Mrs. Benton tasted the savory morsel she had
carefully compounded in the chafng dish, and
looked at her husband somewhat apprehensively.
Then she said
Somehow, it don't taste just as Mrs. Mink's

something OUT
Mr. Benton tasted refectively.
Il don't think so,' he remarked
Mrs. Bentons fact frightened visibly. Then
her husband continued

said that could make it taste like this. It's
something you've put in"

IOKERs in AMENDMENT NO. /
Read the Various Misleading State
ments, Reflect and Then Vote
Against No. I.

IN Argument for Popular Government
Prepared by Missouri Popular Govern
ment League.
First Joker: Lines 20 and % of
the amendment say: Initiative pe;.-
tons shall be filed with the county
clerks of the respective counties not
less than four months before the cleo
ton"
Lines "a to 2S are as follows
within 80 days after said petitions
are filed with the respective county
clerks of the respective counties said
initiative petitions shall be, by said
respective county clerks, laid before
the county courts"
Lines 80 to "a: cat least three
months before the election at which
they are to be voted upon, they shall
be certified by the respective county
courts"
Suppose a few county clerks decide
to kill an initiative petition. Or sup
pose only one county clerk decides 70
do so. All he has to do is to hold the
petitions till the end of his 80 days
and the judge has no opportunity to
examine themi
Second Joker: Lines 30-31: "Tf
the signatures thereto are found to
be genuine signatures of voters they
shall be certified"
All that will be necessary to kill
any good petition under this law will
be for the enemies of good govern.
ment to slip in a few false signatures
on the petition, when the people are
not watching. Fair play, isn't it?
Third Joker: Lines 80 and % to
1903: THE powers reserved or con
tanned in this section as aforesaid
shall not be used to authorize
or confer local option or other local
powers in matters of taxation in or
upon any of the counties, municipal
ties or political subdivisions of the
state or to repeal, amend or modify
these provisions"
Never! World without end! For
ever! E~ternally! If we want to
make any change in five years or in
10 years, or if our great-grandchildren
want a change rs years hence, the
door is closed. No change can be
made. The edict is perpetual.
This one provision alone ought to
defeat Amendment No. 1. 1t is the
work of shrewd and calculating men
who want to put something over
while the people are asleep and tie
our hands for the next century.
Vote against Amendment No. /. 1t
is fatty against the interests of pop
ular government.

w. J. BRYAN.

"The principle Of the initiative and
referendum is Democratic. 1t will
not be opposed by any Democrat who
endorses the declaration of Jefferson
that the people are capable of self.
government, nor will it be opposed
by any Republican who holds to Lin
coins idea that this should be a gov
eminent of the people, by the people
and for the people,"
Amendment No. l. is an attempt to
hobble the initiative and referendum
and should be vigorously opposed by
all good citizens. Do not be misled
by those who claim it will "do no
harm to the initiative" Read it and
you will be convinced that you ought
to vote against it.

BIG INTERESTS STRUGGLING
Amendment to Initiative Law Forbids
its being Applied TO Any
Taxation Subject.

An Argument for Popular Government.
Prepared by Missouri Popular Govern
ment League.
The proposed amendment to IL
initiative law forbids it to be applied
to any taxation subject. THIS OPENS
AN EASY PATH TO ANNUL THE
PEOPLES POWER ON ALL 9TH
Err SUBJECTS.
Joseph W. Folk is right when he
says that if the enemies of popular
government succeed in hobbling the
initiative and referendum in regard
to the subject of taxation the next
step will be to hobble it in another
subject, and then another. 1t is only
a question of time until all our I'M
portant and vital rights will be taken
away. Today it is taxation. Tomor-
row it will be something else, prohi-
bition or woman suffrage, or control
of corporations, until the people, in
stead of deciding everything, can de-
eide nothing.
The initiative should be applied to
ALL subjects.
The "big interests" are struggling
for the throne in Missouri. The COM
mon people have become too impu-
dent; they must be punished. They
favor the initiative principle, and, as
the entire law cannot be taken away
from them all at once, it IS to be am
putated on the installment plan.
Is it reasonable to suppose that the
authors of a bill that has been care
lessly, Or perhaps Intentionally, made
defective have any honest designs
whatever in regard to the peoples
rights? This is the situation as re-
CARDS Amendment No. 1 today. 1t Is
the duty Of all good citizens to join
in the fight against Amendment No.
1 until the %iniquity that is being at
tempted is thoroughly exposed to
every voter in the state.

REASONS FOR RETENTION
DO Not Tamper With Initiative
Amendment, as II Seeks to,
Abridge Rights.

An Argument for Popular Government.
Prepared by Missouri Popular Govern
ment League.
1. Our present Initiative and Ref.
erendum Law is a check against all
special interests.
2. 1t is favored by all parties and
by an overwhelming majority Of the
people.
8. The people have a constitutions
al right to it.
4. The fight against special inter-
ests proves its value to the people.
5. It is the peoples weapon--the
key to Our House,
Our initiative and referendum law,
which is n Of the best In the world,
should be left unchanged. The pro
posed Amendment No. / is an at
tempt to entirely destroy the real
power of the law through inserting
"1okers' that make 1t easy to prevent
petitions from being filed. This dis
honest amendment should be defeat
ed by an overwhelming vote.

Amendment No. I Seeks to Have Us
Lose the Benefit Depend
ent on Possession.

An Argument for Popular Government
Prepared by Missouri Popular Govern
ment League.
1. As it stands, our Initiative Law
is a check against all special inter
ests.
The fact that the people have the
right to initiate laws makes it unnec-
essary for them to do so. No laws
have as yet been enacted in Missouri
directly by the people, but dozens of
good laws have been enacted by the
legislature that would otherwise have
been defeated. This is true of all Of
the ii states where the initiative and
referendum are nov in force.
A news item in the st. Louis Re
public recently gave the name of a
policeman who had carried a pistol
for 80 years and had never been
called upon to use it. The very exist
enee of the pistol prevented the ne
c~essity for its use; it promoted law
and order. The very existence of the
peoples power through the initiative
has the same effect.
2. It is favored by all parties and
by an overwhelming majority of the
people.
1t has been voted for by the people
of 19 states, but prevented from ope-
ration by the legislature in two Of
them and defeated by means of
jokers in three others, which is what
Amendment No. / is trying to do in
Missouri.
In Utah and Michigan the "details
of its operation" were left to the leg
islature. They have never supplied
the details.
In Wyoming, where it carried six
to one; in Mississippi, where it car
ried three to one, and in New Mex
leo, where it carried two and a half
to one, it was killed by different
kinds of jokers, all different from the
one proposed for Missouri.
In Is of the 10 states where it has
carried the vote stood 1,576,312 for to
712,505 against-oyer two to one. In
one state, Nebraska, the vote stood
1885, 200 for to 1876 against-nearly
IL to one. The percentages were uni
formly larger in the western agrt-
cultural states.
Attacks are being made upon it by
enemies on all sides. 1t is being COM
PEELED to fight for every inch of the
way, but its friends have never de-
serted it, and its enemies are being
driven to the most desperate ex-
tremes Of trickery and fraud to in
duce the people to abandon it.
No real believer in the rule of the
people can take any other view than
that embodied in the fundamental
principle of the initiative and refer.
endum. AS William Jennings Bryan
has so happily phrased it:
