Governor Alexander vetoed the
act seeking to give force and eff
feet to the initiative, referendum
and recall provisions adopted and
made a part OF the state cOnsti-
tuition. The proposed act is in
cluded in house bill No. 95, by
Representative Peter G.. Johnston
of Bingham county. The amend
ment to the constitution was
adopted four years ago. The
Twelfth legislature failed to en-
act the necessary legislation to
put it into effect The present
legislature passed the bill named
above, which the governor vetos
and in message addressed to
the speaker and members of the
house Of representatives declares
it is not effective and if put into
the statute books in its present
form would bring the initiative,
referendum and recall principles
into disrepute. 1t would be
better to have no law than to have
the one passed by the present
legislature, he says.
The fact that Governor Alex
ander has always been known to
be one of the warmest friends and
advocates of these principles,
gives his veto of the bill not a
little prominence. 1t is taken
by friends of direct legislation to
be friendly act, It is said, for
they did not favor the Johnston
bill, holding the same views in
regard to it that the governor eX-
presses in his message.

Declaring that Governor Alex
ander and the legislature we're
elected in pledges Of economy in
state affairs, the Lewiston Tri-
bune says:
Governor Alexander is much
berated and abused for his pre-
election promises and for his
post-election performances in
carrying out those promises.
Generally speaking, however, he
has only done what he agreed to
do. Lewiston has suffered at
his hands, and so has the state,
in the same connection, but we
can take our medicine without
crying over it, because that was
the fate of the day and because
the same policy is supposed to go
all the way around. We speak
only Of the record as now made,
and we are making no estimate
yet as to the further record, or as
to whether Governor Alexander is
destined to prove a good invest
ment or a poor Investment to the
state. The legislatures record,
however, is already written and
it is one that can not stand test
or examination. It is the same
sort of record that has already
cost the state so heavily in cred
it, in money, in investment, in
opportunity and in confidence.

Aviator Lincoln Beachey
PLunges to Death in Bay

San Francisco spectacular ca
reer of Lincoln Beachey, one of the
most daring of American aviators, was
ended Sunday when he fell to his
death at the Panama Pacific exposition
in plain sight Of thousands Of specta-
tors.
Beachey, was attempting his second
flight Of the day at 3:45 p. m. when
the fatal accident occurred. Having
previously electrified the crowd with a
series Of aerial somersaults, the in
trepid airman sought to add an addi-
tional thrill by making one of the sem
sational perpendicular drops which
featured his flights. The accident was
attributed to the fact that Beachey
entrusted his life for the first time to
a new monoplane and an exceptionally
large crowd was attracted to see
whether he would attempt the same
breath taking stunts in the new ma.
chine that had made him and his trim
little biplane famous.
On the first flight of the day every
thing worked properly and all the
familiar evolutions were INDUCED in
with the exception of the perpendicu-
lar drop. This Beachey had saved for
the final climax and this, too, proved
too much for the fabric of the mono
plane.
The machine was at an altitude of
about 5000 feet when Beachey shut off
his power. For several hundred feet
the machine dropped head on for the
earth and then the aviator grasped his
control levers to adjust the planes for
the graceful descent which character
lied his previous flights.
At this instant the wings crumpled
like collapsed umbrella and the aero
plane, turning over and over in its
fall, plunged into San Francisco bay,
narrowly missing vessel lying at the
government transport docks.
