The Referendum.
South Dakota's adoption o( the refer
endam will attract n.uch public atten
tion. This method has long been prac.
ticed in Switzerland.
The adoption of this proctss. ot law
making by Sooth Dakota was effected
by a majority of the citizens voting in
favor of an amendment to the constltu,
tion ot the atate embodying each pro
cess, ii provides that whenever as
many as 5 per cent of the registered
voters ot the state demand any special
legislative act, the Legislation must at
the ensuing election submit the proposi
tion to the people. '.Should the roejori
ty of the voters approve it at the polls,
the act becomes a law.
a second provision is that if 5 per
cent of the voters formally object to a
bill which has been passed by the leg'
ielature, the bill must be submitted to
the people at the following election, and
muet stand or fail according to the pop
ular voice expressed in the ballot box
One ot the evils calling tor such a de
parture in lawmaking is the passage ot
so many class and franchise graboing
acts by legislature. The people have
been robbed of many valuable franchises
through the instrumentalities of legists
tares corrupted by lobbies working in
pay of corporations. The referendum
instituted by the citixens ot South Da'
aota is one ot the means invented to cut
off, if possible, this scandalous evil.

perimeot in that young commonwealth

Lieutenant Richmond P Hobeon baa re
cently related an offer ot $50,000 (rom
New York lecture bureau tor a series ot
lectures during the season. Explaining
the reason for tbis refusal to a friend
white on his way from Anapolis to
Washington, Lieutenant Hobeon said
"It would be idle for me to say I did
not consider the proposition carefully
I did. My people aie all in moderate
circumstances, but my reflections led
me to tbis conclusion : Before the sink
ing of the Merrimac my lectures would
bave been worth probably .not more
tbaa 50 cents ; the sinking ot Uie Merri-
mac seems to bave made them worth
950,000. The work which Bu suddenly
raised my stork la literary trade was
done in Dimple execution ot my duty as
n officer in the American navy . I did
not feel that I bad the right to use the
performance ot ihat duty for my fiaan
cial betterment. I therefore declined
offer ol the $53,000. I bave, however,
agreed to contribute some articlee to one
of tbe magasinee, but this is different,
and, I might add, carries no icdepeud
nt fortune with it."
Another offer was made to Lieutenant
Hobson Saturday at Anapolis of $200 tor
a 20 minutes talk at Norfolk, and in re
fusing this offer be spoke as above quot
ed touching the (30,000 New York offer
It may be remarked that Lieutenant
Hobeon is all right.
