4 STABLE GOVERNMENT

Not long ago one of the lead ing county papers in whose Sen for editor we have a great deal of confidence as to his democra. 1 cy, ability and judgement, yen- tured the oppinion that 1t feared Amendment No 13 would not give us a stable government We believe the editor is this one time mistaken in his view, for our government to be stable must be founded upon the patriotism, devotion and intelligence of it's citizens.
 To secure the best results they must feel that 1t is their gov ernment.
 Nothing is better calculated to inspire these sentiments than good Initiative and Referendum laws. Citizens know that if any, thing goes wrong in the seat of government, be it municipal, state or national, that they can remedy it. Where they have the power to supervise they take a greater interest in the details of its work and many of our best business men who now ne- glect politics wholly because they can not sacrifice the time to hold pnblic office, will be found valiant workers for good legisla- tion when they understand that they can do this through Initia- tive and Referendum laws with out sacrificing their interest in seeking and holding an official position.
 Some have expressed the fear that our laws will be frequently changed under an Initiative and Referendum system, but this will be impossible without the consent of a majority of the people and we have too much confidence in their intelligence to believe that a majority will be mislead into adopting bad laws.
 There is certainly more danger to be feared from legislation en- acted by a small body of men as is done under the present system, as is seen when we consider the tremendous influence brought to bear upon them by predatory in- terests and no power in the hands of the people to prevent this legislation. their only re- course being to secure it's repeal at some uncertain time in the flu ture, and perhaps punish those they think responsible by refus- ing to re. elect them to office. But in a peoples government, as it was intended ours should be, its stability does not depend upon unchangeable laws. but up on the ability of the majority of the people to amend or repeal them as changing conditions re- qnire.
 It is certainly better that the government be placed in the hands of the whole people in preference to those of a few pol iticians, aud to make a thorough peoples government in the State of Arkansas is the aim of Amendment No Is.

operates the boilers OF an apartment
building is called an engineer" al
though the name is entirely a mis-
homer when applied to him. he may
be a good mechanic, but he is not an
engineer. The gray haired man who

Of hundreds Of human beings In his
care belongs to the very highest type
Of mechanic, but he is not an engineer,

men are doing. In our country there
u no word to distinguish them from
the bridge builder, the sanitary expert,

Warships In Battle.

IN the days Of wooden war vessels
two frigates, or ne-of-battle ships,
might be dashed together and IRE shot
into each others interiors for an in

he had not yet begun to fight. At q

be much conversation between hostile
commanders. even by signals, and aft

injured by gunfire and get away, but

they are picked up, for there are no

often been discussed at scientific meet

when seen, is the 80 called green

ment Of the disappearance Of the sun

eye must be fired upon the hin Of the
sun as It disappears In order to catch
the phenomenon. One authority tells
Us that he has seen the green fash,

Theft In Ancient WaiSe,

In some ways which might nowadays
be called Sentimental" the laws Of an
Client Wales were In advance Of those
Of today. ]. E. Lloyd In his His
tory Of Wales" mentions that In some
Of the codes (Which were. as a rule,
very severe on theft a remarkable
provision exempted from punishment
'the starving man who, after begging
for three days and receiving nothing.
helped himself to the food which he
needed In order to keep him alive.
That every man had the right to live
was a principle Of the law, and the
sentiment of the country demanded
that every person Of substance should
keep open house not only for ordinary
travellers, but also for the destitute and
the friendless."
