Public opinion Is often wrong in the
beginning; 1t is always right in the
end. And the reason is that, at first,
1t is formed by the passions Of the un-
thinking many, ignorant of mankind,

lightened by experience. to whom alone
the past is an object of interest, and

Vox Populi, Vox Del

The change from an appointive to
an elective judiciary is the most
far-reaching of any made in the con-
stitution of 1890, except the amend
ment providing for the initiative
and referendum.
Under the initiative. an amend
ment may be made to the state
constitution by vote of the people
wholly independent of legislative
submission or incorporation in less
than six months time; and laws
may be enacted by a vote of the
people at the same time and in the
same way. just as if governors and
legislators did not exist
Under the referendum. bills pass
ed by the legislature and approved
by the governor may be challenged,
and if majority of the people vote
to kill such laws, they are as dead
as Hector.
For Instance: If the legislature
shall repeal some law that the peo-
pie do not want repealed, or enact
some law they do not want enacted,
the people may undo the legislative
work. Notwithstanding it has the
approval of the governor. at a refer
endum election.
Again, the people may vote down
any law passed by the legislature
fixing state tax levy at rate they
regard as too high, and fix the tax
rate to suit themselves; or the peo-
pie can vote down appropriation
bills they regard as excessive or un-
and fix the amounts to
suit themselves. And there is no
appeal.
In short, The Voice of the Peo-
pie is the Voice of God. "-Hinds

RESOLUTION INTRODUCED
BY HON. W. B. WATKINS

A letter from Hon. w. b. Wat
kins is both optimistic and pessi-
mistic as to the outlook for reduc-
ton of the state tax levy. Mr.. Wat
kins thinks much depends upon the
attitude of the appropriations COM
mittee, as fixing the state tax levy
is usually among the last legisla-
! tion of the session and must be suf-
/ ficient To meet all appropriations
that committee may make. How
ever. to show that Mr.. Watkins
heart ia in the right place. he
enclosed the following resolution.
which, if it should be adopted.
would operate as a check upon the
appropriations committee and make
it possible to have the state levy
fall within the limits OF the resolu-
ton.
Following is the resolutions:
A resolution defining the power to
tax and laying down certain prin-
ciples to guide tax-imposing bod
les of the state in the exercise of
that power:
Whereas, according to Chief JUS
tice Marshall. the power to tax is
the power to Destroy" and,
Whereas. the prosperity of the
country depends more upon the wise
exercise of this power than is gen.
orally appreciated; and,
Whereas, an incentive for effort
and a reward tor accomplishment
are common birthrights of every
American; and,
Whereas. it is obviously unwise
to kill the goose that lays the gold
en- egg; and.
Whereas. the ruthless exercise of
the taxing power in Europe, more
than any other one thing. brought
on the European war, and has en-
quilted its civilization in all kinds of
governmental heresies OF Bolsheyism
and other isms. and has resulted in
economic chaos and anarchy oyer
a large part of the world; and,
Whereas. the total taxes paid by
the citizens of the state for 1920
nearly amounted to the value of the
cotton crop of the state for that
year, as will the taxes for 1921 |
amount to over so per cent of the
value of the cotton crop of 1921;
and.
Whereas. the survival of the states
workers or wealth producing citi-
zens is an economic necessity:
Therefore, be it resolved by the
house of representatives. the senate
therein, that it is the
sense of this legislature that the im-
position of taxes has reached the
limit in the state of Mississippi and
should be curtailed.
Be it further resolved. that this
legislature does here and now put |
itself on record as fayoring for all /
time a more close inquiry into the
merits of all claims for appropria-
tions at its hands; that it look
closely to the real benefits to the
masses of the people of the state
before making any appropriations;
hat it give more close attention to
he economic phase of the tax prob
EN-; that it hereby directs the ap-
committee of this house
% reduce the total appropriations
t recommends for passage to an
not requiring more than 71a
mill tax levy for the years 1922 and
1923.
