Only Way Out

It IS difficult to contemplate the results which would have fol-
lowed the failure Of the legislature to have inserted the peace,
health and safety clause in the general appropriation bill. This
bill provides for the maintenance of the state government for the
ensuing two years. Without the appropriations contained in it,
the operations Of the state government would necessarily be sus.
pended. This might mean the sdlscOntinnance of the insane ASYLUM.
reform school, penitentiary, feeble minded asylum, and the closing
of the state courts and Of al. state executive and administrative
offices. The state government is primarily mainland for the
peace, health and safety Of the people and nothing could be more
destructive than to suspend the state government. Certainly, the
peace, health and safety clause is applicable to the general appro,
praton bill for this reason, and it probably will be conceded that
the legislature had the power to- take this bill entirely out Of the
referendum power #
If the legislature had not done 50, It would have been within
the power of 1928 electors to annul the general appropriation bill.
Our government is a representative democracy and the Socialists
do not believe in that kind Of a government. Here alone are. 6Ol9
voters qualified to sign a petition, and it would be entirely in ac-
cord with their purpose to have a peaceful suspension Of the state
government as a means Of introducing their peculiar notions and,
without doubt, there are a suffci ent number Of other persons who
were aggreved by the appropriation bill or Indifferent enough to
would have suspended the state government. Had the legislature
omitted the peace, health and safety clause, and such a petition
had been filed against the appropriation bill, what would have
happened? s"
It has been suggested that the situation described would pre-
sent an extraordinary occasion such as would authorize the gov
ernor, under Section Is Of the constitution, to call a special session.
Of the legislature to make provision for special election on the APP
preparation bill. A session Of the legislature without funds to pay
mileage and per diem is almost unthnkabe, but probably to save
the state the members might be willing to serve without compen-
sation. A statewide election, without funds to pay printing and
other necessary election expenses, also has it's drawbacks. If a
special election were provided and the people approved the appro-
priation bill, it would go into effect; it. on the other hand, they
disapproved it, we would be where We started, that is without
funds for the maintenance Of the state government.
We would still have an extraordinary situation which would
justify the governor in calling a second session Of the legislature
without mileage and per diem as before, and this second session
ty clause in it and nail it down by a two-thirds' vote on a separate
roll call. This would be one way of reviving a state government
which would have been peaceably dissolved by a failure to insert
the peace, health and safety clause. Does anyone know of another
way? %#.."t #t

elevator ISSUE
IS KILLED OFF
Senate Passes Lathrop Bill Re.
pealing Special Levy for
This Purpose.

After fillibustering for the greater
part of yesterday afternoon Senator
Bronson failed In his efforts to retain
the one-eighth of one mill levy for ter.
minal elevators. The matter was
fought through the conference com.
mittee, amended and re.amended.
Two lines Of attack were made by
the friends Of the terminal elevator.
One was to kill the Lathrop bill thus
continuing the mill levy and the 9th,
er to amend it SO that it carried an
appropriation equal to what the levy
would be In 1915 and 1916.
When the house refused to concur
in the amendments passed in the sen.
ate Thursday. :he doom Of the bill
was sealed. Seyera. roll calls were
taken. and lllibuster methods resort
ed to in order to kill the bill and'pre.
serve the levy. ohl
The final vote to pass the bill which
iepeals the levy stood Is. ayeyen1S
nays and absent and not voting six.
The clincher was added.
This bill now provides in addition
to the repeal that $1,000 be usel by
the railroad commissioners to investi.
gate the feasibility Of establishing ter.

the creation of the ranks Of admir-

American navy the position to which
