ORIGINAL BOOSTER OF
|. & R. AMENDMENT
FavOrs Proposal For Greater
Stability Of Constitution.

1t is immaterial to us whether 1t is
the Liberty league, Stability league,
or Deviltry league, that has initiated
the proposed constitutional amend
ment to shut off voting every year on
fool propositions, we are for the pro.
posal. The statewide prohibition
amendment has been decisively de.
feated in one form or another for sew
eral years, and would be a failure if
enacted, under the federal supreme
courts shipping permit; the womans
suffrage plan has been defeated twice
or three times; it is now time to give
that rest; non.taxation on lands has
been up every year to help the bond
holder; let's forget 1t; every year Rev.
Herbert Bigelow, who is not "rever.
enced" very much, trys to inject par.
agraph intn the constitution making
the farmers pay all the tax, with his
single tax ideas, and the people sit
down on him.
Now, is 1T not time, dear people,
that we give this BigelowisIh a smash
er in Ohio? He says it will hurt the
initiative and referendum! The editor
of this trail of the lonesome pine was
one of the original l. and r. boosters
twenty-five years ago, and as dele.
gate to the Ohio Democratic conven.
tion in 1896 proposed tnen and there,
in our most resonant voice and com.
manding aspect, that Ohio's Demo.
cratic platform should contain but one
plank, I'VE favor the initiative and
referendum" Since that time Herby
Bigelow has taken nearly all the l.
and r. seguEn out of our nerve cen
ters, and convinced us that the sweet
thing is working badly. even If the
shattered principle still has a rusty
resting place in our manly bosom. A
pineapple rolled around in the mud
becomes less desirable.
the Stability league, or Agility
league, working night and day, could
not injure the principle of the l. and
X. more than Bigelowism has the past
three years. To curb it will save it,
otherwise the people will rise and
wipe it off the state map. Give us
something permanent, for six years
sure, and for ten years If possible.
This state under Bigelowism will be
reduced to the level of a barrel of
wriggling maggots; no aim, no objec.
tive point, no hope-just a bowling

Columbus, O.-CSpecial.) "A day in
advance of the time set for filing, the
Constitutional Stability League placed
on deposit with Secretary or State
Charles Q. Hildebrandt its petition for
submission to the voters of a constitu-
onal amendment limiting elections
IN proposals twice defeated by the
voters to three in seven years.
The Stability Leagues strength
shows the smashing of all records in
petitions. In two weeks and two days
there were secured and made ready
for filing l75,86l signatures, or 62,939
more than are required
The petitions were generally circu-
lated and signed throughout the state,
practically every county exceeding 3
per cent of the vote cast for governor

and petitions show that they were

the success of it will please or dis
please any particular organizations.
you will probably carry the amend
ment by a very decisive majority.
You must appeal to the common
sense of the people of Ohio by show
ing that it is their duty and to their
interest to vote for this amendment,
even though it may for a few years
interfere with the submission to the
people of some particular principle Of
government, which they may sincere
ly advocate If their own proposition
is sound. it will gain in strength by
that most efficacious and only real
method of winning, namely, education
of the people on the particular issue.
The proposed amendment does not
in any way interfere with the advC-
cacy by public discussion at any and
all times OF any proposal. 1t simply
prevents voting on it by the people
for a short number of years, and that
only after the measure has been twice
before voted on and twice defeated.
Yours very truly,

tion measures that do not really COM
mand the degree of favor emitting
them to such adoption. A proposal
may be rejected ten times and then
be carried by margin barely suffi-
cient for its adoption, through over
confidence of its opponents or some
accidental factor. Once written into
the constitution, a provision COM
mands certain degree of advantage.
especially when a two-tnirds vote is
necessary for its repeal. Under the
Ohio constitution a majority vote is
sufficient for the adoption or elimina-
tion Of any constitutional measure.
Should the annual attempts to obtain
constitutional prohibition succeed it is
to be expected that the opponents of
prohibition would then take up the
fight and press their cause until re.
verse vote were obtained, possibly the
year after the supporters of prohibit
tiOn had triumphed. The suffrage and
anti,suffrage adherents might involve
the state in a similarly continuous
struggle.
'Wouldbe tinkers with the consti
tuition should be debarred from these
annual engagements. After a propose!

ever, is to return to that recognition
