FLAYS INITIATIVE
Ai REFERENDUM
Judge Charles H. Carey Fears
It Will Destroy Represen
tative Government.
ADDRESSES OREGON BAR
Jurist Delivers Warning of Grave
Danger That Lies in Wholesale
Enactment of Law Without
Proper Deliberation.
In an address on "New Responsibilities
f CHixnhip." delivered before the Ore
rn Kar Association yesterday. Jude
harle H. I'arey attacked the Initiative
and referendum as tin destroyer of repre
sentative irovernnwnt. He warned .iis
Auditors of tne great danger whlrh lies
in tlie wholesale adoption of ill-advised
and hadly-prepared hills whlrh Is made
possMM- hv the unlimited application of
t:e initiative and rpr.Tonmirii amenu
ments to the state constitution in the en
'tment of legislation. The address was
favorably discussed by many members
t th Bar Assoc atinn.
Judg; Carey charted that the initiative
find referendum amendments to the Ore-
srn constitution are subversive of the
representative system or a republic, wun
the result that the restraints ana nmii
tlons of the constitution are no longer
respected. Without these restraints, he
said. Iws may become uncertain, unjusi
and unreasonable. The power to amend
constitutions at wnl. he dxlarnl. will re
sult In that nrivilesr- Nlnr made the in
strument of public pHssinn and prejudice.
Judge arey pointed out that the Con
stitution of the t nited States was amend
-d only five times In 12 years, while at
the state election last June. amend
ments to the reon constitution were
proposed and voted upon. Amonjr those
proposed, he said, were some mat went
to the very heart of representative pov
ernment. such as proportional representa
tlon. which was denounced as utterly vls-
ion.trv and Impracticable, and the recall
of public ofrieers. which was held to be
diseoura!nr to Independence or tnotight
and action by public officers, and danger
ous if rapttoui-ly exercised.
Amemlnirnt Shoiilil Ho Limited.
It was Insisted by Judze Carey that a
VmitTtlon should be placed to the num
ber of constituilonnl amendments and of
the Initlntlve measures that may b sub
mitted at any one election. The Initia
tive, he shM. should be confined to hills
that have failed to pass the IjCRislaturt
and those vetoed by the (Governor. As to
the referendum, he argued that a larger
percentage of signatures should be re
quired before the referendum could be in
vnared on any bill passed by the legisla
ture. If the Initiative was to be upheld.
Judre Carey Insisted that it should so be
limited as to Insure against worse evils
than it was designed to correct.
After reviewing tiie development of the
representative system, and charging that
the present-day evils are not greater
than those with which preceding genera
tions were confronted. Judge Carey spoke
In part as follows:
We have approached the subject of our
thesis Irrilrerily. My aim i to show that
with the recent modifications of the Ore
gon constitution, the people have taken a
step that has brought new and serious re
sponsibilities of citizenship. Whether I
have suoceort In demonstrating that the
stp aa not forced hjr new conditions nf
political, commercial or social life Is an
experiment ventured upon against the teach
ing of history, is of no moment. Hut the
grave question l. how will the people mt
the new demands made upon them ? In
view of the fad that the representative
syfftem In the Republic has been on trial
but a century and a quarter, and that the
principles now rnx rafted upn the Oregon
Constitution, if applied to the ultimate, is
utterly subversive of this essential fea
ture cf the American plan.s the subject Is
one of dep concern.
Such modi Heat Ions. because thy are
gradual, are nt harmful, but If It comes to
prts that the ln.trument may be amended
st will. or. mre serious still, that laws
a lopted by popular vote need not conform
to the Constitution, the danger in times
cf public pisun or prejudice Is easy to
understand.
Easy Now to Change Conwtitntino.
In Oregon, we now permit the constitu
tion to be amended at will. Formerly. It
required not only the majority of all of
the elector (meaning the majority of the
greatest number participating In the ejec
tion to change the constitution, but the
proposed amendment must be agreed to by
a majority of all of the roembf as elected
to each houe. In two aucoessive L-trisla-tlve
Assemblies; now. a bare majority of
thrae votmg on the measure at any general
election Is sufficient to carry the propo
sition, though but a minority vote on It.
Formerly, two years and a half In time, at
the least, and the deliberations of cur
legislative groups, besides the vote of the
majority of the people, was the requisite;
row. In three months time, an amendment,
perhaps prepared m a secret manner by a
single Individual. submitted practically
witnout opportunity for debate, certainly
i tli. nit opportunity for pruning, polishing,
or enlargina. and generally not even read
by the voter, may he adopted by a mere
minority of the electors!
I say that thi condition Imposes new
and grave responsibilities upon our citi
zens Let thein beware lest In seeking
greater flexibility In the fundamental law
cf tHe state, they throw away the precious
herttas of thetr liberties. Let them re--member
that It t by the restrictions of
l!e time-worn instrument that disaster has
more than once been averted; and that the
stability of our institutions Is the safe
guard of not property alone, but of liberty,
and of hfe itself.
Aside from the ten amendment, in the
rat re of a bill of r'uhis adopted at the
cutset, the I'nlted States Constitution has
been amended but five times in 1JO years.
yit at the slate election, held last June,
ten different amendments to the Oregon
constitution were proposed, and voted upon.
"There is no limit, and It might ell have
been 40 Instead of ten. Among the amend
ments abEte.i were some that go to the
very heart of representative government,
such as proportional representation and the
recall of public officers; the former being
Utterly rtmonary and impracticable, sine
it cannot be put into practice, and the
latter being so discouraalng to Independence
f thought and action by public officers, and
dangerous tf captiously exercised upon
the Judges f the courts, or the principal
esecutu e officers of the state, that the
iery fa-t that thee amendments are
adopted at the flrt opportunity under the
jew scheme, is nr.e of the most dtcourag
Irig 'gns for the future of this experiment. .
Example at June Election.
At the re .e nt state election, beside the
ten constitutional questions submitted to
tote. nine ether subjects of legislation were
voted upon These measures mith the ac
cmpantng printed arguments, when pub
lished by the Secretary of State In pamphlet
form prior to the election, in pursuance of
the legal retirement therefor. tcomprised
some 124 pages of close! y printed matter.
It wou'.d require an intelligent atudy of this
jamphlet to qualify for vote on these prop-
o!tions. many of which were of such char- ;
acter as to totally change fundamental and 1
existing principles of state government. 1 '
stiall not attempt, at this time, to review 1
these measures and to point out their de
fects But a moment's time may be given
by way of tliustratfng my theme.
One Is law changing the time of hold
tr f general elections In the state, but no
provision u made for the change of num
erous co-re'ated statutes bearing upon the
time when terms of office beam, or the time
hen duties under the nominating laws
aall be performed
Another is known as the "Corrupt Prac
t'es Act." This law consists of sections
and over 90W words; its title la such as to
readily secure the vote of any right-minded
citizen, and Its sponsors undoubtedly had
no other purpose m proposing the messure
than to promote the public welfare. But it
goea without saying that very few voters
could or would read and digest the pro
visions of a proposed law mf such length
and complexity, and it need surprise no one
who vnteI in favor of Its adoption If it s
afterward discovered to contain claues that
were nnt nerallv known. and that
are more or less lost to sight in its long
pages.
I call attention to these examples, not
for the narnose of protesting against direct
legislation In general, but to emphasize the
fact that under the Oregon const"""""
ft exists. new and arave responsibility has
been imposed upon the citizens. As I have
already said, this responsibility calls for the
exercise of a very high degree oi iniem
srenne rwrnn I atudv of measures pro
posed for consideration. That the new duty
has not been well performed In the case of
the salmon legislation Is apparent, but -the
failure in this Instance is not more glaring
than the failure of the Legislatures to do
their dutv In other Instances.
It Is fair to credit the voter with a sin
cere desire to vote right upon the questions
submitted, and It is evident that In cases
where the question is one of general policy
or principle, on which he can express -himself
by a yes or no vote, the best Judg
ment and will of the majority of the peopie
may be secured. In cases, however, where
the proposed measure consists of many in
tricate and Involved provisions, the fact
that there can be no opportunity of amend
ment, or any guarantee that the measure
w'lll be read or fully comprehended In all
Its bearings, points to a danger In this mode
of securing legislation. The danger Is not
so apparent In esses where the vote Is upon
the referendum, for there It is to be pre
sumed that the measure voted upon has had
the benefit of revision In the Legislative
Assembly, and examination by the Gover
nor. Question of Restricting I e of Law.
These reflections suggest the inquiry
whether, where the Initiative system is to
be used. It should not be confined to cases
In which the law voted on shall be expres
sive of a single principle or remedy.
The American people have Jong been
accustomed to vote upon constitutional
amendments; sometimes other measures
ha e been submit t to popular vote for
ratification or adoption. It iil be found
that usually In these Instances the duty
required did not Involve more than an af
firmative or negative vote upon a slngie
question. It Is when the duly Involves more
than this that Its chief danger of the whole
sale adoption of Ill-advised and badly pre
pared bills will be encountered.
I am of the opinion that the power of
the referendum is not open to the criti
cism I have mentioned, but that l ought
not to be made the means of holding back,
and perhaps by the delay making Ineffect
ive, measures adopted by the Legislature;
unless a mu'h larger percentage of voters
sign the petition than is now required.
And I suggest the question whether, since
the real object nf the Initiative is to en
able the people to make laws where their
servants in the legislative Assmbly are
recreant to duty. It would not be advis
able to confine its use to cases where the
Assembly has refused to rass a bill Intro
duced, and where the executive veto has
defeated a bill voted by the Legislature.
But my purpose is served by showing that
In this new field there !s room for tne
highest order of statesmanship and patriot
ism. Timid men. believing that It Is not
popular to question the all-sufficiency of
this new scheme that has been adopted by j
such substantial majority In Oregon, will
hesitate to undertake the duty of formu
lating and urging modifications and restric
tions. But tf the initiative Is to he upheld
as a part of our plan of government, U
should be so limited as to insure against
worse evils than those it was designed to
correct
Objections to Us Summarized.
I will not pursue the subject further, but
will summarize what I have said, in these
propositions:
First There Is a marked tendency In the
I'nlted States and In other countries to
ward enacting sweeping legislation on novel
principles.
Second The evils that apparently give a
reason for these changes are not more se
rious than have been experienced and dealt
with before.
Third The plan of vesting the lawmaking
power In the people at large Is not new In
history, and was expressly rejected In favor
of the representative plan by the founders
of the United states Constitution.
Fourth The recent changes in the Ore
gon constitution, and the facility with which
It may now be amended, puts new and seri
ous responsibilities upon the electorate.
Fifth The initiative system of lawmak
ing. In the form now under experiment In
Oregon, requires the exercise of an extra
ordinary degree of Intelligence. Impartial
ity and devotion on the part of those hav
ing the right of suffrage, and is open to
certain criticisms that suggest limitations
upon the exercise of the power.
Mxth These suggestions embody the fol
lowing changes In the present plan:
al Limitation of the number or .sub
stitutional amendments, and of Initiative
measures that may be sdbmitted to vote
at any one election.
(b) Limitation of the subiect matter rt
any such measure to single propositions. In
concrete form.

bills that have been introduced and failed
to pass In the Legislature, and those that
have been vetoed by the Governor

Our proposed constitutional amend
ment, providing that no citizen who is

vote on account of sex. is meeting

ness men. and all fadr-mlnded, patriotic

Our determination. adopted two

political parties to mir ranks as suf
fragists, but holding the suffrage
movement absolutely non-partisan, is
rapidly allaying the cpposition encoun
tered in former campaigns. And our
efforts to secure the enfranchisement
of tax-paying women is heralded as a
safe and conservative departure from
the revolutionary tactics of former
suffrage agitation.
It is the hope a.nd ambition of th
Suffrage Association to see Oregon

world in extending the right of suf
frage to the law-abiding, tax-paying
mothers of the state, who have been
patiently striving for this right. "In

only can her sons and husbands prove
themselves worthy of the faithful
motherhood which all true manhood

ELOPERS DELAYED BY LOVERS'
QUARREL CAUGHT BY POLICE
Miss Harriet Chapin and Jacob Phillips Detained in City Jail, as Result of
Telegram From Victoria, B. C.
BfcAL6.fe, of having paused to en
gage in a lovers' quarrel when they
should have ' been utilizing every
econd In finding a preacher. Miss Har
riet Chapin And Jacob Phillips, who
eloped from Vancouver. B. C, are now
in uie vuy jail. The quarrel occurred
after they had actually secured a mar
riage license and were on their way to
be married. The trouble was occasioned
by the woman's belated confession that
she had bven married before.
After having succeeded in a spectacular
elopement, evading irate relatives ot the
woman in Vancouver and dodging the
police at Seattle, the elopers were within
easy reach of the goal when the diffi
culty arose. Then Miss Chapin told Phil
lips or her previous marriiure. He took
the thing very much to heart, said he
should have been told in the first Dlace.
and then asserted that he wouldn't marry
her at all.
This delay enabled Police Sergeant
Baty. on telegraphic instructions from
Vancouver and Seattle, to locate the cou
ple and Interrupt the match. It is said
that the woman left Vancouver with'
articles belonging to a member of her
household and the local police were urged
to hold- her pending further advices.
Miss Chapin. who Is said to be well
connected at Vancouver, was an incon
gruous figure among the derelicts of the
Municipal Court yesterday forenoon. She
U a young woman of tine appearance and
refinement. She was in striking contrast
with the several women held for drunken
ness and seemed to feel the humiliation
keenly. In order that the couple might
be held, a technical charge was lodged
against them of registering as man and
wife when they were not really married.
They explained that they did this to
throw pursuing relatives off the trail
until they could have the ceremony per
formed. They did not secure an attorney or
make an effort to fight the charge against
them. Miss Chapin seemed too much in
distress at the unhappy turn the elope
ment had taken to bother about the de
tails of defense, and Phlilips, too, seemed
plunged in dejection.
"I was warned against Phillips, and so
I suppose 1 oughtn't to complain." she
said.
Miss Chapin said Phillips asked her to
marry him at Vancouver, but that there
was so much objection on account of his
position as a salesman that they finally
decided to elope. Phillips went to Seattle
and she Joined him there, she said. They
left Seattle at once, fearing trouble might
be made if they appeared at the County
Clerk's office for a marriage license.
"We would have been married, but she
told me about the former marriage and
said she believed her husband was dead,
but wasn't sure. Since she hadn't a di
vorce, and couldn't prove that the former
husband was dead. I didn t reel like en
tering unto a marriage contract until
being more certain about the where
abouts of the other one." That was Phil
lips' statement of the case Mies Chapin
denied that there Is any possibility her
first, husband is living. She' has been
living under her maiden pama for a
number of years, she said.
Ordinarily the couple would have been
permitted to leave and thresh out their
own differences. But the police urged
that they be held as per wire Instruc
tions. Judge Van Zante. taking advan
tage of the technical charge against
them, complied with the request and sen
tenced them to serve ten days apiece In
the City Jail.
Miss (Tiapin was taken to a cell on the
third floor. She was on the verge of
hysterics.
"This is the first time I ever saw a
Jail, and to think of having to be locked
up in sucb a dirty place as this," she
sobbed.

Is to be convinced of our statements. We claim and the
location of this addition conclusively convinces the shrewdest
buyer that property in this addition will triple and quadruple
in value in the next few years.
History Repeats Itself
And the experience of Chicago, Kansas City, Fort Worth and
other towns which have become distributing points for the
large packing-house interests shows that real estate in the
vicinity of the plants has increased in value from opening
prices of a few hundred dollars to thousands today.
Portland Will Do Likewise
It is no longer a question of "maybe." The packing-house in

these big plants, which will employ thousands of hands, is
bound to prove a big investment for the early buyer the man

ALBANY, Or., Nov. 18. (Special.) An
Oregon county cannot levy an assess
ment on the right of a corporation to
do business when no specific franchise
has been given, according to- the decision
of Judge Galloway, In the State Circuit
Court, here this afternoon, in the case
of Wells, Fargo & Company vs. Linn
County.
. The express company's right to trans
act business in Linn County was as
sessed on the 1907 roll and the company
brought suit to enjoin the county from
the collection of the tax. A temporary
injunction was granted when the case
Was filed and this injunction was made
.permanent on the hearing of the case
today, it being shown that the company
had never secured a franchise and hence
had no taxable right. The decision will
affect other counties besides Linn, whero
the express company's right was assessed.
