REFERENDUM
PETITION ON CODE
LAW PRESENTED
Point Made Against Its Legal
ity; Prohibition Petition
Filed Also Sim
taneously. Lincoln, JJuly 14. (Specials
Petitions under the referendum
holding up the administrative code
law passed by the last legislature
were filed in the office of the sec
retary of state this morning.
The petitions contain 26,420
names, notwithstanding the propa
ganda sent out by the promotion
committee during the time these pe
titions have been in circulation led
people to believe that the petitions
were being numerously signed. In
order to make the petitions legal
10 per cent of the total vote cast
at the last election would be re
quired. This would call for 22.218
signatures on the petitions, which
shows that with all the hard work,
but 4,202 names more than the legal
number could be secured.
There are 81 counties represented
in the petitions, hut 25 of these
failed to have sufficient names to
make the petitions legal, so that but
56 counties came across with the
required number. Douglas, county
furnished almost one-half of the
total number of names, 11,974, while
Lancaster county, the home of the
propaganda committee, only fur
nished 1.451 names.
The petitions were brought to the
state house and presented to the
secretary of state by Fred Aves,
chief of the promotion committee;
his assistants, A. D. Scott. J. M.
Foster of Lincoln, Dexter T. Bar
rett and E. if. Burnett.
Governor Makes Objection.
The matter of whether the peti
tions filed are within the law will
be decided by the attorney general
before the petitions are accepted by
the secretary of state. Governor
McKelvie appeared tfiis afternoon
when the matter came up for open
ing and examining the petitions, and
objected because the petitions did
not have copies of the code bill at
tached. The petitions merely give
the title. The matter will be further
taken up Wednesday, after the attor
ney general has passed upon the
question.
Never in the history of the state.
P. A. Barrows, Correspondent
since the referendum law was put
in force, has there been such an
organized effort, to secure names to
a referendum.
The committee finally joined
forces with the anti-prohibition com
mittee circulating referendum peti
tions, with headquarters in Omaha,
and by the united efforts of both
committees, working jointly, suffi
cient names were obtained.
That these two committees repre
sented two souls with but a single
thought, two hearts that beat as
one," is indicated by the fact that
the referendum petition on the code
and the referendum petition on the
ratification of the prohibition
amendment knocking out the act of
the last legislature favorable to na
tional prohibition were both filed
within an hour of each other and
that about the same number of
names were secured on each propo
sition in Douglas county, where the
committees were working jointly
11,974 on the code and 12.873 on the
referendum on prohibition.
Involves Heavy Cost.
Had the new code law been al
lowed to go into effect July 19, the
people could have seen the law
working out and then if they were
satisfied that it was not what they
needed the next legislature could
have repealed it or have made such
changes as would make it satisfac
titry. Now the petitions are filed
the taxpayers of the state can
thank the democratic propaganda
committee for having to go down
and pay an additional $150,000 in
taxes for the privilege of voting on
a law they will know nothing about
because the referendum on the bill
has taken from them the only in
telligent method of finding out the
merits or demerits of the bill, that
of seeing it work.

CODE BILL TO BE
OMITTED FROM
SESSION CALL
Governor McKelvie Gives Ten
Reasons for Not Incorpor
ating Measure in
Summons.
Made Milwaukee Famous
By Stuff Correspondent.
Lincoln, July 14. (Special.)
Governor McKelvie will not include
iuhis call for a special session of
the legislature about July 28, any
thing in connection with the code
bill. He gives several reasons for
so doing and calls attention to what
the people of the state will be put
up against in the way of expense,
stating that it will cost atf least
$150,000 for printing .and circulating
the code proposition. The governor
charges that the "wets" are at the
bottom of the whole thing. He says:
"It has been urged upon me to
include in the call for the special
session, the enactment of the civil
administrative code with the emer
gency theory that a referendum
would probably be obtained against
the code. Among those who have
so advised, have been several mem
bers of the legislature, some of
whom voted against the code when
it was up for consideration in the
last regular session.
"After having considered this mat
ter very carefully, I have decided
that I shall not include this subject
in the call for the special session.
I do not want it to appear even
though thet could be no basis for
the charge in fact that I desire to
deprive the people of any rights
that are reserved to them through
the referendum.
"However, I wish to present to
the people, for their information,
some very important facts bearing
upon this subject.
Would Violate Purpose.
"First, the exercise of the refer
endum in this instance would be
a distinct violation of the purpose
of the people in writing the initia
tive and referendum provisions into
the constitution. The civil adminis
trative code bill reflected the ma
jority sentiment of the people, as
Was indicated by their vote at the
last general election, when they ap
proved the republican platform, in
which was contained a declaration
for this legislation.
"Second, the referendum petition
against the code has received the
substantial support of the old, wet
machine that has repeatedly thwart
ed th will of the people in the past,
and the petition, in many instances,
was circulated in connection with
the referendum petition against the
ratification of the prohibitory
amendment to the federal constitu
tion. "Third, the exercise of the refer
endum in this instance will cost the
state $150,000 for the printing and
circulation of the code among the
voters, prior to the next general
election. This is two and a half
times the total amount of the sal
aries to be paid all of the heads of
departments under the code.
Other States Adopt Principle.
"Fourth, the principle of admin
istration involved in the code has ;
bee;i adopted by at least three other j
states, and several more states have
made provision for its enactment
at an early date.
"Fifth, the code represented an
expression of the majority of the ;
people and it had a riglit to De given
a trial before it was held up. Had
this been done, it could have then
been easily made an issue in the
next campaign and the legislature
could have been instructed to repeal
it if the people so desired, or the
repeal of the law could have been.
initiated.
' Sixth, it was upon my request
to the legislature that the code was
not passed with the emergency be
cause I wanted the three months
succeeding as a period in which to
organize the departments under the
code. Nor did it ever occur to me
that any poltical party or machine
would have the temerity to use the
referendum as a means of enabling
a very small minority, headed by a
clique of political reactionaries and
obstructionists, to defeat a majority
expression of the people.
Will Hamper Legislation.
"Seventh, I want the people to
know that a referendum against the
code will suspend the operation of
legislation bearing upon a business
organization of the state's admin
istrative machinery. Much legisla
tion, that w-as passed, intended for
administration under the code, will
have been seriously hampered and
in some instances defeated entirely,
and legislation which would have
enabled the state administration to
investigate and control profiteering
will have been suspended.
"Eighth, I think this referendum
petition, in connection with the one
against the ratification of the prohib
itory amendment to the federal con
stitution, amply indicates to the peo
ple of the state that the old, wet ma
chine, which they thought they put
out of business at the last general
election, is still very much alive, and
is exerting a very dangerous influ
ence in the state. I realize, of course,
that many good citizens of Nebraska
signed the referendum petition
against the code, not appreciating
the pernicious influences that were
back of it.
"Ninth, if a referendum is filed
against the code, I shall feel that
my hands were tied in giving the
state an efficient business adminis
tration, but my lips are not sealed
against telling the people that if they
want such an administration of the
state's business, they must first be
awake to the pernicious activities of
the machine that has repeatedly
thwarted the will of the people in
the past; that has attempted on
every hand to embarrass public of
and several professional petition cir
culators have been traveling
throughout the state, who is putting
up the money? Does it seem prob
able that Nebraska's old, wet po
litical machine would take such an
altruistic interest in the public wel
fare, or does it have some ulterior
purpose, to justify the compaign it
now wages?" ,
