The idea of popular legislation is reflect
ed in the constitution of the new state of
Oklahoma, which provides that eight per
cent of the voters may propose new leg-
isirtion thru the initiative. The trend' of
times is to get as close to the masses of
voter a possible."

state the word Socialism throw them in
to a itat of mind quite similar to a red
cloth wave before an untamed bull.
While not in the present century is It
expected that Socialism in a majority of
it teaching it' will become effective thru
tatutory enactment, no thinking man
who heart throb with a defr for the
betterment 'of ma nkind can dismiss Social
m from hi mind with the conclusion that
it contain no element of virtue Populim
by not 'a few of thi same clas was
frowned upon and ricieuled a unworthy
of consideration in any of it premie.
Yet today a a rult of ' thi populistic
teaching which fof a number of year's
wag preached from a number of school
houses, Oregon today stands out in the
limelight as an example worthy of em
ulation of every state in our union.
Populism a thing of the past, but the
Australian ballot, the initiativeand refer-
dumand the direct primary law is a
monument that few parties can point to
with more pride.
Socialism like the Populist party may
within a few years be a thing of the past
in this state yet who knows but it too
may leave behind it a legacy for the com
ing generation.
It 1 impossible to keep a good man
down very long. When senator La Fol
lette. of Wisconsin first entered the sen
ate, not a few of the "Fourhundred" of
that body noised it about that they would
keep his light smothered for many months
but they did not correctly measure the
ability of their new colleague. Hi exper
ience as governor and legislator in his own
state gave him the neccessary experience
m parlimentary rules to protect his right J will receipt sama for m.
Here it a clincher. It it reported that
Union ha started the report in the Cove
with a view of securing signatures to the
county division petition that tha county
court had ordered a rock crushing plant
and steam road roller and the court has
issued orders that neither can be used
only within a radius of two miles from
La Grande. Such an untruthful atate
need no denial whatever, but does show
wwnat desperate straits the movers of
county division are reduced to secure
signers to their petition.

tha question among themselves. Tha pro
vision of tha proposed bill aa sUted In
the'Oreifonian are that any portion" of fa
county desiring to be cut off must first
eec'ure a petition of .not a than aeventy
five per cent of the . voter , within tha
territory to be set apart and fifteen per
cent of the voter of tha balance of tha
county.
. Thi petition to be filed with the county
court who must provide for the submission
of the question of division to the voter
at tha first general election after the films
of aueh petition and if a majority of the
voter of the county so vote for division,
the county is divided.
If the above statement is a correct inter
pretation of the bill there is little question
but what it will and should pass. Ve r
often a county is divided by the legisla
ture without very much reference to the
merits at issue. This is brot about or
made possible thru a fight on organiza
tion or thru eontroling factions. Tni law
leave it to the people interested and if, a
majority, vote for or against division, the
wishe. of the majortiy should bs respected.
