Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1917-05-28

A constitutional amendment, sub
mitted by the legislature, third on
the ballot entitled Limiting Number
of Bills Introduced and Increasing
Pay of Legislators.
This measure proposed to amend
sections Is and 29 of article " of
the constitution. At the present time
a senator or representative is not
limited as to the number of bills he
may introduce.
Members of both houses are paid
SO per day, with the limitation that
the per diem shall not exceed $12O
for any regular session, which has
the effect of practically limiting the
regular sessions to 40 days.
The proposed amendment would
limit each member to the introduc-
tion of four bills at a session, while
senate committees are limited to the

A constitutional amendment, sub
mitted by the legislature, fourth on
the ballot, entitled Declaration
Against Implied Repeal of Constitu-
tional Provisions by Amendment
Thereto"
This proposes to amend section
of article I of the constitution. It
provides, in brief, that any constitu-
tional amendment adopted by the
people which repeals any existing
part or parts Of the constitution with
out specifically stating the fact of
such repeal shall be void. The effect
of the amendment, II adopted, would
be to take from the voters the right
now given by the constitution to alter
or amend 1t, whenever In the opinion
of the supreme court a newly adopted
amendment repealed an existing pro-
vision without definitely saying so.
1t would give the court the power to
set aside duly adopted constitutions
al amendment, no matter what af-
firmative majority II might have re-
ceived at the polls.
Those voters who believe they
should place such a limitation upon
their present right Of constitutional
amendment should vote 1906 x
YES; those who do not so believe
should vote 1907 x No."

Unite Southern Oregon.

BY the nature of its location Marsh
field should be regarded as the sister
city of the Rogue valley towns and
should be the port Of entry for much
of the freight into this valley The
big men of southern Oregon are be-
ginning to realize that closer tie of
friendship should be built up between
the various southern Oregon COM
munities and the recently opened up
Coos Bay country, and look forward
to a visit from the Marshfield people
as the first step in establishing an
everlasting friendship which will be
of mutual benefit.
Special Doings.
An especial effort will be made to
royalty entertain the Coos Bay con-
tingent and send them home regard
ing the Rogue River valley people as
friends worth having.
A number of Ashland men are be-
coming financially interested in Coos
Bay enterprises and are aiding in
building up the cooperative feeling
which will go long way in uniting
southern Oregon with its port.
