There was no discussion on this meas
ure. Mr. Potts explained that the state
needed moro money with which to carry
on tho government and tho bill wouli,
It It becomes a law, raise the money.
Tho bill Is patterned after the Ohio law
and Mr. Potts quoted a compilation of
figures to show what it would do In
Nebraska.

the present bill as follows: j

Houso Roll 742 which provides the ma
chinery to put Into effect the constitu

tive and referendum, brought out serious
objection's from .McAllister. The gentle
man from Dakota objected to the au
thority given to the secretary of state,
and to the court to pass on the suffi
ciency of the petition filed.
Set'tloti Coiiiplnlneil Of.
The section complained of Is as follows- j
Section C, If the secretary of stato shall
refuse to accept and flic any petition foi I
tho Initiative presented not less than foui
14) mouths preceding the date of tin
election at which 3 the proposed stntutr
or constitutional amendment Is to bf

after the legislature enacting the law to

sine dl or for a jierlod longer than ninety
(90) days 6 any citizen may apply, within
ten days after suclr" refusal, to the dis
trict coutt for a writ ot mandumiis to
compel him to do so. If It shall be de
cided by the court that such petition Is
8 legally sufficient, the secretary ol
state shall file It, with a eertlfed copy of
tho Judgment n attached thereto, us of
the date on which It was oiiglnally of
fered for filing In his office. 10 On a
showing thnt any petition filed Is not
legally sufficient, the court may enjoin
the sccroturv 11 of state and all othet
officers froiii ceitlfylng or printing ot;

court of Luncnster county shall have
Jurisdiction In all cases uf law, parts of

tors of the 17 state at large.
To Protect People.
Richardson explained that tho section
was to protect tho people from a pcie. .
tary of state, who might be opposed to ,
the law and thus hold up a petition and
prevent proposed legislation from being
sub<ted. The houso sided with him and
McAllister's motion to send tho bill back
to the committee was lost.
The bill provides that persons for or
agnlnst any proposed legislation may
place at tho top of tho ballot an argu.
inent for and against the measure. When
the proposed legislation is filed It Is
the dutyp of tho attorney general to
write the gist of the legislation In not
more than 100 words which will be placed
on the ballot. No person shall sign a
petition more than once and with no
name other than his own.

Spring elections which nro hold In

Interest this year owing to tho fact that
In July tho city councils and town aa
thorltles will be called upon to perrorm
the delicate task of weeding out saloons
Jn each community to conform with tho
new one-to-GOO law. In the Illack Hills
there will not bo any tremendous cut In
