the case may he or may have been
elsewhere, Ohio has furnlshd no such
example, even before the executive
was given a voice lu the making of
her laws.
"I do not mean that we have bad
no bad legislation and no unworthy
representatives; but these have been
too rare to discredit the magnificent
history of more than a hundred
years. Our citizens have never en
forced higher standards lu the pub
lic service than they are doing now.
So some other reason must be found
to Justify a change in our system
which would throw off the checks
and precautions u gain. -it hasty and
unwise legislation, which have been
so carefully provided and make the
iturup the seat of government.

"However, 1 believe that. In act

fully Justify either thu fears of Its
opponents or the hope of its advo

nicipalities. So, to add to dlscuft--lon
of It, the argument of a test by
our own citizens. I approved a bill

to them, though I am told It has not
been resorted to anywhere.
"For myself. I think we should
await the result of a fair trial In
our cities and villages before mak
ing state-wide tho operation of so
radical a change In our methods.
Hut if the convention should de
cide to submit the question to the
people, as 1 understand many mem
bers wish to do, it should be done
separately. The provision should
be guarded so us to prevent its be

expense of social (flections should
be avoided, except in cases of un
usually wide-spread and general de
mand. And, in view of its exeri
nieiital character, resubmission to
the people should he provided for at
the end of a reasonable period, with
out formalities and delay generally
required for amendments of the constitution."
