STRONG ALLIANC WIT JAPAN ELECTION FOR REFERENDUM IN NOVEMBER Supreme Court Reverses Galloway, Upholding Constitutionality of Day Bill Providing Special Election for Consideration of Referendums. Legislature Held to Be Empowered to Do Anything Which the Constitu tion Does not Prohibit. L SAI.KM. Or., July 22. A. C. Lll- boy, respondent, versus lien W. Ol cott, secretary of state, appellant. This Is tho tltlo of tho caso In which tho constitutionality oi tho Day bill Is tested and which tho supremo court this morning held constitution al, reversing tho decision of Judge Galloway. Tho opinion Is written by Juxtlco Hurnctt, who holds that tho legisla ture can do anything which tho con stltutlon docs not prohibit. Tho opinion is based upon tho prlnclplo laid down In tho opinion, that "tho legislature Itself, acting directly, could havo referred to tho people any or all tho laws enacted, and It Is not perceived why It could not with equal propriety annex a law fut condition to n referendum of tho snino bills ordered by petition. It is held that tho act sufficiently states tho measures upon which a veto will be so tnken, that there was llien nctual mnrvri.-J k- eisvence ruU- jeet to the referendum, and that it was competent for the legislature to provide for the referendum of its own measures only. It is nlso competent for tho legisla ture to aiiticiate n condition likely to arise in the future, and consequently to provide legal rules applicable ti such a contingency. The opinion disposes of tho con tention thnt the law takes effect ujHin the happening of a contingency briefly, holding the law does not so depend, its going into effect nt once, but the election may depend upon a contingency. The opinion is exhaus tive covering all points of the cuse and sustains the constitutionality of the law throughout. Tho result of which is that there will be nu election held next November.
