inally at the 1911 session of the Leg

lobbies joined forces to work for the
Initiative, referendum and recall, which
both desired, while the farmers' lobbies
also supported the workmen's compen

for grange measures. A few months
later the "Joint Legislative committee'
was organized formally with two mem

Merger Most Successful.
The combination had remarkable suc
cess with its measures at the 1811. Leg

organized the Joint Legislative com

blouse and senate to submit a consti
tutional amendment to allow future
constitutional amendments to be made
by initiative instead of passing through
the Legislature. A few legislators
broke their pledges and the proposed
amendment Tailed to secure the neces
eary two-thirds majority. The com
blnation suffered other reverses at the

campaign the breweries, in addition to
fighting the prohibition law. worked
hard against the eight-hour bill,
which had been indorsed by organized

W, W. Conner, of Skagit County: E.

Halsey is now invading Western
