Governor Holcomb lived up TO cX-
pcctations when he decided to with
hold approval Of the liberal Sunday
bill, his action being a declaration
that he is more representative Of the
people than the Senate and House,
which passed the measure by large
majorites.
Heretofore it had been supposed
that the members OF the Lcgisla turc
were competent to enact laws which
they believed were for the benefit Of
the people. The ordinary man UNI
skilled in the art Of legislation must
revise his views in this respect The
Governor sets himself up as superior
legislature, deaf to the voice of the
public. Perhaps Governor Holcomb
