Manitoba Initiative Law.

The Canadian province of Manitoba
has recently adopted an initiative
and referendum law that is worthy
Of study by the law makers Of this
state. Such laws were demanded in
the state of Washington because of
the total failure Of it's representatives,
in legislature to give heed to the
public will, and appear to still be
needed measures.
But, like many other good laws,
they are capable of being abused.
Their object was to hold sort Of
club over the legislature with which
to insure the enactment of such meas
ures as the majority demanded, but
they seem to have been seized upon
by sort Of self constituted, irrespon-
sible law making body, yclept the
Farmers Grange, Direct Legislation
League and the State Federation -
Labor, procedure scarcely contem-
plated by the advocates of those pro-
pressive measures, with the result
that at each election these organiza-
tons bring forth batch of statutes
to be voted upon for many of which
there has been little demand aside
from the coterie which frames them
all of which entails a large expense
upon the taxpayers.
The Manitoba law requires that the
initiative petition must first go to the
legislature when signed by eight per
cent of the registered voters.
The legislature may pass the law
and make changes that do not alter
the meaning of the law. The author
ity that rules upon the character of
amendments made by the legislature
is the speaker. If he certifies that
the law has been passed with amend
ments that do not alter it's meaning
it Is not submitted to the electorate.
If the legislature does not pass it in
such form the bill goes to a vote of
the people at the next regular cleo
ton unless special election is petit
toned for.
But before the law is finally sub
mitted to the people the attorney
general must pass upon what we call
its constitutionality. If he rules that
the legislature has not the power to
pass the bill, then 1t is not submitted
to the people.
This plan seems to the Herald to
be restrictive me- asure that might
prove beneficial to this state.

ANOTHER CHILD
BROWNS IN RIVER
Ten-Year Old Boy Slips Into
Chehalis River From Log
Boom. Body Recovered

Henry Walkema, the 10-year-old
child of Frank Wakema, an express
man, was drowned in the Wishkah
river Tuesday afternoon near the Slade
boom.
He had been playing with other
boys about the boom. While walking
about the edge OF foat on which
a shack stands he slipped into the
water from the moss-covered log. A
companion rushed to his assistance
and gave him a hand, but was I'M
able to hold ON and the boy was car
ried away. He was fully clad and
besides this he could not swim. A
strong inset of the tide carried the
boy up stream Another boy jumped
into a boat and rowed as quickly as
possible to the scene of the accident,
but the body could not be located.
The fire and police departments
were notified and a physician and pull
motor apparatus were brought in
stantly to the scene. The body was
finally recovered about 100 feet up
river three-quarters of an hour af-
ter the alarm had been turned in.
The pulmotor was put in service but
all efforts at resuscitation failed.

Socialist Turns to Wilson.

DR.. E. S. Brown, the we'll known
Socialist leader of Seattle, has de-
clared for Wilson, and has published
the following statement:
81 have joined the King County
Democratic Club and will work for
and support Woodrow Wilson for
President. He and his party have
given us a monetary law that makes
honorable banks secure against the
Wall Street bank burglars. He and
his party have kept this nation out
Of war.
HE and his party are now striv-
Ing for child labor law, and while
/ have belonged to the Socialist party
for fifteen years and advocated the
principle that every man should have
the right to labor and enjoy the full
fruit of his labor, I now take this
principle into the Democratic party
with me.
"The Socialist party of this state
has degenerated into a party of de-
struction; it has bartered it's prin-
ciples and lost its integrity. Principle
and self-respect force me from it,"

FIFTH GRADE.

We are trying to build up great
civilization on the basis of fifth
grade efficiency.
We have heard much of compul-
sorry military service, and it is use
less to deny the fact that conscrip-
ton is at our very door. There is
one kind of CONSUMPTION to which l
wish here and now to subscribe-an
educational conscription-insisting
that every section of the country
shall be equipped with suitable
schooling facilities and insisting
that every parent or guardian shall
see to it that every child is forced
to make use of those facilities. If
we really want to prepare as a ma
ton LET Us ABOLISH CHILD
LABOR, BLOT OUT POVERTY
AND EQUIP A REAL EDUCA-
TIONAL SYSTEM IN EVERY
STATE IN THE UNION.

LOGGING VALUATIONS
FALL OFF THIS YEAR
Scant Stocks Of Logs and Manufac.
tured Lumber on Hand March I,
Reduces Assessed valu.
atoms.

Valuation of logging outfits and log
stocks of the county for assessment
purposes will decrease, it is stated,
more than 1914 per cent, as compared
with the valuations last year. A de-
crease in actual stock on hand will
account much for the decline. There
are three fewer firms in the loggers'
table than last year. The total so
per cent. valuation of the 80 firms
outfits and logs last year was $685.
1855. This year the total for the 90
firms is s746,435.
This slump in valuation is traceable
directly to log stocks. Last year March
l most of the loggers had big stocks
on hand. This year some of them had
none and none of them had large
stocks. Expressed in thousands the
total stock on hand last year March l
was 10000 This year the total is
2S,S21. The valuation last year was
s195,41O and this year it is s96,930.

The Cheerful Optimist

All the world loves the optimist, and
rs a part of the planet, the Herald
doffs its hat in admiration to the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer as the most
splendid specimen it has yet had the
pleasure to meet. We are tagging the
blue ribbon onto the P.-I. for the fol-
lowing, opening paragraph OF its lead
ing editorial of last Tuesday:
Contrary TO the claims set up
by the Democratic press, there
is no indication that the Demo-
cratic party is to receive any i'm
portant accessions of strength
from former members OF the Pro-
gressive party. On the con-
trary, all the signs point to the
reunion of the Republican forces
as they existed prior to the dis
affection of 1912"
It will be conceded that the ribbon
is rightly bestowed when one looks
over the list of (present, not former)
leading members of the Progressive
party in this state who have notified
the National Democratic headquarters
that they were supporting the Presi-
dent in this campaign. Among them
Is found, Ole Hanson, Progressive
candidate for United States senator
in 1914; Edgar C. Snyder, former
Progressive chairman; H. c. Piggott,
editor of the Seattle Saturday Night,
q Progressive weekly; Geo. w. Bright,
W. ]. Bowling and j. H. Fletcher,
who were all on the Progressive local
tickets in 1914; Henry Albert Nc
Lean, Progressive candidate for Con-
gress; c. ]. France, chairman Pro-
gressive state convention; DR.. Carl
Ewald, Progressive member Seattle
port commission; T. H. Bolton, Pro-
gressive councilman, Seattle; ]. G.
Gregory, progressive editor; NJ. c. Nc
Cable, lawyer; j. T. Gilberts, former
Socialist editor of Seattle Herald;
Glen Hoover, Socialist candidate for
Congress; Mrs. Helen NJ. Stevens,
Seattle Suffrage Club; Mrs. w. S.
Griswold, Mrs. F. l.. w. Clark, all
leading Progressive women; William
H. Gorham, former president Seattle
Bar Association and prominent Re-
publican before he became a Bull
Moose; w. X. Sheldon, noted Chris.
tian Science healer, formerly a Re-
publican and then leading Progress
sive; Austin E. Griffiths, former
councilman at large Of Seattle and
Progressive candidate for Congress;
Geo. w. Dilling, former member of
Washington legislature and mayor of
Seattle, announces he will vote for
President Wilson, but for the Repub.
lican state ticket. Byron Phelps, for
