There should be two days of vot ing every year, one in spring and one in fall (and in exceptional cases an extra one). The initiative bills should bo considered first and if enough to well occupy tho voters’ attention, should in no way bo in- cumbered by any but urgent meas ures. Now as to the advantage and disadvantage of tho Initiative and ltefei'endura: The Initiative ought to be of tho widest practicable form, for tho enacting and amend ing of constitutional laws as well as of by-laws. The Initiative should never be a petition to legislature (or congress), but a direct demand to the entire citizenship, else it might become a fading flower. Now thanking the editors of the OUR NEW CLUBBING OFFERS I H erald for the space iu their col umns granted me to express my opinion as how to unite all tho re form forces on a common platform, and thus, by united effort, achieve a speedy and healthy reform that must infallibly emancipate the pro ducing mnsses from the slave-trad ers, I hope the voters of this state and nation will well study the plank of direct legislation and grant it the long-deserved place in our plat forms. I ulso recommend to every true reformer to read a little book en titled: “ Direct Legislation By the Citizenship Through the Initiative aud Referendum”, by J. W. Sullivan, and push the work of a real reform with all his ndght. C. S. Bandon, Feb. 23, 1890. N O .F 3 0 . Special Inducements to Subscri bers— Best and Cheapest. GOOD FOR EVERYBODY Almost everybody takes some laxative medicine to cleanse the system and keep the blood pure. Those who take SIMMONS L iv e r REGULATOR (liquid or powder) get all the benefits of a mild and pleasant laxative and tonic that purifies the blood and strengthens the whole system. And more than this: SIMMONS LIVER REGU LATOR regulates the Liver, keeps it active and healthy, and when the Liver is in good condition you find yourself free from Malaria, Biliousness, Indigestion, Slck- Headache and Constipation, and rid of that worn out and debilitated feeling. These are all caused by a sluggish Liver. Good digestion and freedom from stomach troubles will only be had when the liver is properly at work.
