Adv, 'THE PUBLIO - T11M initiative ami rofoiviuhun was . adopted to cub tho "publif-be-daimiod" policy of the legislature by enabling the people to pass upon legislation enacted as well as initiate needed legislation. The joker in the law was the "emergvin-y clause" provision,' deemed nocos sary to secure immediate action in case of real emergency. Advantage of this clause has been taken in many in stances to deprive the people, of their rights to "pass upon legislation, where there was 'not' even the shadow of an emergency. ' Abuse ot the emeigencv clause has been gradually growing with every session iwmilar defiance with the Chamberlain and 'West vetoed the emergencv clause was needlesslv attached constitut ing an encroachment upon the rights of the people. . They went even further and vetoed legislative bills which nul lified the Avishes of the people as . expressed at the polls, It is high tunc. that Governor AVithvcombe acted similarly and by executive action restored the people their usurped rights. . The legislature is full of demagogues who loudly declare their devotion to the pub lie interests ana blatantly iirato tneir love tor tne -deer pepul," their deadlv opposition to "corporation coriuov ants" and "slimy monsters,"' and of professed purifiers of politics who, when the time for action arrives, vote with the "gang to soak the public and deny the erstwhile object of their oratorical solicitude their constitutional right of a day in court. . , . There never was a more glaring instance of the "pub-lic-be-damncd" nolk-y than the road legislation enacted at this session legislation, that is truly taxation without representation or recourse. The entire Jmrden of1. road construction has been thrown upon the" automobile and motor vehicle owner, who is made the ''goat" and de nied the right of protest. Millions of dollars are to be squeezed from the autoist for the development of Oregon by a system of extortion without precedent in this or any other state and the autoist is denied a voice in his rob bery and deprived of his right of protest. The legislature has voted a lxmd issue of ten million dollars, following the issue of the previous six 'million dollars, authorized two years ago and still unspent, 'for liighwav construction, interest and bond to be paid bv the autoist. This ten millions ever made in the history of the state. No emergency ex ists, for the money cannot be spent before June, when the special election will be-held, yet the legislature declared an emergency existed by the following clause: . It Is "nereby adjudged and declared that existing conditions are such tbat this act is necessaryfor the immediate preservation ot tho public peace, health and safety; and an emmergency is hereby declared to exist and this act shall take effect and be In full force and effect from and after its approval by the governor. ; . Here is legislation based so based, 'can be just legislation or honest legislation. But the legislature has the money from the autoist, bills have boon. passed im posing a tax of one cent a gallon upon gasoline and a half a cent a gallon irpon distillate, doubled the cost of auto licenses, inequitably based upon horsepower, so that a man owning an old high powered ear is forced to pay more for a license than the value of the ear.' To both of these; .'measures' the same emergency clause was attached, to deny those affected the right of appeal to the people, though exists. ' . people, though no emergency The. automobile owners their share and so indicated united ettort secured a popular endorsement ot the six million dollar road bill which doubled their licenses. But the legislature is riding a free horse to death, by forcing all the cost of the road building upon the autoist, leaving the users of other vehicles untaxed and denying them the right or referendum. - The autoist is a public do his share and more in road that had these million dollar mulcting measures been made contingent upon a vote cheertully worked and voted being deprived of a voice in his rights as a citizen. ' , ; . ' There is no excuse for such legislation. ' It is wrong in theory and 'vicious in principle, utterly uncalled for and destructive of popular government. The legislators should be compelled to answer their constituents for their de fiance of the spirit of the constitution and greater care be exercised hereafter to select men who will live up to their professions and have some regard for the inherent,rights of their constituents.

I had bean bothered with my stomach and. kidneys for twenty years and was never able to find any thing to do me any good. The pains In tho small of my back and shoul ders nnd In my left hip and knee were awful. Sometimes I wus In so much misery that 1 couldn't get around at all and would havo to lay off from my work for a week nt a time, or more. When the weather began to get warm last summer I got in such a bad fix that I could hnrdly stand It, nnd had to give up my work entirely and was unable to turn my hands to a thing all summer. I mov ed out of town, right out Into the woods thinking If. I lived out In the open It might help me, but I con tinued to surfer Just the same. My stomach was all out of whack and 1 suffered agony from indigestion. The gas which formed on my stomach would get up into my chest and al most cut off my breath. I had to stop drinking coffee, quit eating many things I like best on account of the trouble they caused me.
