Committee Tells Why Stability
League Amendment
Should BE Spat Upon by People
of Ohio This FaII-SpeCiaI
Interests Back of IL.

Governor Willis appointed Mayor
Newton D. Baker, of Cleveland, Per-
CIV Tetlow, organizer for the miners
union, and L. ]. Taber, master OF
the Ohio State grange, committee
to prepare the argument against the
Constitutional Stability e g e
amendment, which provides that con-
stitutional amendments shall not be
submitted oftener than once in six
years if they contain even any part of
any measure twice rejected since Sep
tember, 1912. This is the proposal
which the wets of the state are ba, -
ing. The committee prepared and
filed this succinct argument against
the Stability league amendment
"Vote against the so-called Con
stitutional Stability amendment
ut provides that amendments
shall not be submitted oftener than
once in six years, If they contain even
any part of any measure twice re-
jected since September, 1912.
at would make the amending sec
tions of the Ohio constitution the
most inhexible of any constitution in
the Union.
ut would not only hamper the peo-
pie in submitting amendments, but
it would also "hobble" the legisla-
ture.
'It would be increasingly difficult
as time passes, to draft an amend
ment which could not be taken into
court, on the contention that some
phrase of 1t had been incorporated in
other amendments.
Attorneys of powerful interests
would thus entangle the people in
court proceedings and make joke
of the initiative and referendum.
"The constitution now prevents
submission of state questions except
at regular elections. The voters are
put to no extra trouble and 1t costs
the state practically nothing.
This amendment is supported by
the privilege-seeking interests
''If any such interests can not ex-
ist with the initiative and referen-
dun, it is better that they, rather
than the initiative and referendum,
should be sacrificed.
"There is no present justification
for this attempt to weaken the power
which the people now have over their
governmnt.
This amndment is designed not to
correct the abuse of the initiative and
referendum, but to prevent its pro-
per use.
"Spcial interests could incorporate
a good measure in two bad amend
ments, submitting them at one elect
ion, insuring their defeat This |
would prevent resubmission In good |
faith. Repetition of this trick every
six years would make amending the
constitution impossible, cit her
through the popular initiative or the
legislature"

[DelphOs Herald ]

VIM Mooney, AZ years old, now
serving a 20 year term in the Ohio
state penitentiary for shooting man
in 1906 at a Sunday school picnic at
Montezuma, Mercer county, has ask
ed C. E. Marsh, Delphos attorney
who sent the man to the pen to aid
him in gaining his liberty. Mr..
Marsh is now debating with himself
as to whether he should recommend
to the board of pardons that Mooney
be released. Mooney says he is
broken in health having served ten
years of his sentence
Mr.. Marsh is inclined to the Opin-
ion that if this is true, Mooney has
paid dearly for his deed, and is en-
titled to his liberty.
The mans application for commu-
tation of sentence comes up in Octo-
Der. He says in his letter:
I was convicted in the court of
Mercer county at the April term, of
1906, for shooting to kill and 1 still

The Producers are now at home
to finish the season which closes on
August 30, Every club in the league
win be seer in action except the
oklahoma city club which has
ready made its last trip to Tulsa,
The general impression in baseball
is that this league will be a higher
class league next year, and in order
TO bring Tulsa to the front il will be
necessary to give the local association
better support and larger attendance
the balance Of the season.
In every city in the league the local
merchants, bankers and business men
rave not only been requested, but
nave donated ash to the club in
order to have them finish the season,
owing TO the fact that baseball has
been a losing venture this year, and
1t is the first time in the history OF
organized baseball in Tulsa hat the
anne procedure has not been adopted.
AS a consequence every one inter
ested in Tulsa should lend their sup
port from this data to the close Of
the season, and in order TO give
everyone a chance the local associ-
alton here placed in all the cigar
stands, drug stores, etc, tickets and
will also make a thorough canvass
among the business houses, with a
view of selling tickets sufficient to
boost. the attendance, so hat Tulsa
can be recognized as a baseball town
in higher class baseball.
The tickets for this occasion con-
sist of a numbered ticket with five
coupons, four of which bear a 25c
valuation and are good for four ad-
missions in the bleachers or two
games for general admission and
grandstand while the fifth coupon is
to be placed in a box provided for
hat purpose at the gate and on
August 20, the last day of the season,
Mayor Wooden will draw the ticket,
the holder of which will be presented
with a season pass for season of 1916.
'rhere is a place provided on the
coupon for name and address, and
everyone buying a ticket has an even
chance for the season pass.
The tickets will be sold for 81
