FRIDAY, NOVEMBER£4, 191 | | SELFISH INTERESTSTRYING | TOGET CONTROLOf CON- | ‘ | STITUTIONAL CONVENTION £ X (Marion Star,) *{* W * & W uW * * * * W * 4 ‘*4*-‘H * * * .; .t Each passing day seems ti make inpro certain that when the new con­ stitution is finally submitted to the electors for ratification the people Will decide that It is better to "hear those Ills we have than fly to others that We know not of," In these days of unrest and vague dissatisfaction with conditions as they are, so many quack doctors and remedies for the ills of the body politic have been ad­ vanced that there is little hope that • the' patient will bo permited to get Well naturapy. In more reasoning times, it would bp,possible to entrust our best men with the task' of taking ah the suggestions made, winnowing out the ideas and reforms that are, practicable and needed and-putting them into enforceable terms. But all over the state small bodies of men with selfish purpose or im­ practical dreamers.have been resolv­ ing themselves into little constitu­ tional conventions, presenting their fads for one-sided discussion? ‘ com* promising on matters in which they have no interest, and nominating can­ didates for the real constitutional con­ vention tied hand and foot to certain preconceived ideas. But the danger of electing these ihen does not lie entirely in the pos­ sibility of-their engrafting upon our organic law certain experiments, their devotion to which is the basis of their candidacy. The added danger is in the idea' closest to their hearts which they are not bold enough to proclaim hut which they hope t o ‘ac­ complish by indirection after laying the groundwork in the constitution. As an illustration, the Rev. Her­ bert Bigelow is making a statewide campaign for the election of dele gates to the convention. Although a minister of the gospel,, he advocates the election of “wet” delegates in Cincinnati, not because he believes in the saloon, but solely because ne holds tha t the.teal important change in the constitution needed is the adoption of the initiative and referendum and recall. And yet his purpose is be­ yond this. To him the initial'vfe and- referendum moan a step iir the direc­ tion of “single tax1' or “land tax" and the abolition of private ownership of the soil.' This Is his real political’ conviction, all others being merely subordinate to that. The Socialist goes a step further, and waists th# initiative and referendum .with a view to ultimately. abolish a[l fjroperty rights .except community rights. The saioOnlst is willing to accept license' as an- alternative to prohibRon, but the maiorty of his class is opposed to any form of regulation; the antl- saloon worker wants the initiative and referendum to bring about state wide prohibition., It would seem that It would he well for the pobple who want a pt actlcal constitution, free from radicalism, a working plan under which the people can, in orderly course, provide a gov­ ernment which will profoot life, health and property, promote peace and education, safeguard the morals and insure a reign of law anil order, to draft men for this duty, whose ideas are not Warped or fixed, whoso hands are not tied, who are wise, honest, patriotic, and able'to'reason clearly and practically and act Intel­ ligently and With a view to the inter­ est of all classes, That a candidate seeks to go to the convention because of views- he holds, or has already ex­ pressed, is a good reason for sending some other to the work. TRYING TOTRICK FARMERS Newspapers all over the state are being offered a free newspaper plate service by the Progressive Cdiistitu- ticnftl League, managed by Herbert Bigelow of Cincinnati, to further the Initiative and referendum principle in the coming constitution, Anv news­ paper accepting the same is helping an organized and financed movement by special interests of the very worst type. This special interest Is a class of rich men who want to escape all taxation by forcing the fax on land. Ashtabula county farmers and home owners *;‘re wise to their game and will look askance at any local news­ paper which accepts the service. Herbert Bigelow is In the employ of Joseph Eels and id paid v b in or by an organization founded by him to further the single tax theories through the cloak of the initiative an’d when the city and non-land owning voters will outnumber the land own- log farmers and the homes owners and it is tin ough this direct vote eeherao that the tricksters of the single tax hope to gain a victory, ‘if they can - get this I. & H. into the constitution they know the legislature cannot re­ move the obstruction it will place Upon a free people/ The I, & R., When applied to stato-wide proposi­ tions, Is a movement.,- backward, ft movement toward abject submission jo the monetary power, .such as had never been dreamed of—and yet the people who favor the proposition do 80 cither ignorantly or through de­ sign Id make themselves and their henchmen supreme and free of. all taxation in Ohio,- - Jefferson Gazette, ............ rattshW(clvWMxi-Co 15* C lU C A oa, • j >| J Suits forMen&YoungMen $25, $20, $ 1 5 and $10 B o y s ’ S u i t s , $12.00, SIO.OO, $8.00 and $ 5.00 You’ll Find It at Kingsbury’s If It Is Right— If It’s Right " East Main Street, It’s Time To Got That Over coa t Off your Mind and on your Back.
