REED SAYS ACTION BASED ON STATUTES Attorney General Confident He Has Prepared Prohibitory Amend- ment for Ballot Properly. RESTS NOW WITH THE COURT (From a Btaft Correspondent.) # Lincoln, June 19.—(Special.)—Con- tending that the law covering titles to referendum propositions on the ballot may contain only the title, At- torney General Reed takes exception to the stand taken by officlals of the ; dry federation in protesting the form { the petition for a vote on the pro- Ve hibitory amendment goes on the bal- lot. Referring to the same he says: “It was not a referendum petition, but was an initiatory petition, and a part of section 1-D, article 3, consti- tution, being a part of the initiative and referendum act, provides as fol- lows: “That the title only of meas- ures shall be printed on the ballot.” “If the‘entire amendment as pro- posed by the drys were included in and made the title to the act, it would tution, which permits amendments to initiative petition, and I fear it would invalidate . the amendment if carried. “The objget of the title being for identification and to remind the voter only of the entire amendment, I feel that if the title could be so worded as to be in boldface type it migkt assist the voters, many of whom glafce hastily at the amendment to be voted for or against, and the words I used would permit it to be printed in so few words that it was reasonable to suppose most of the voters would read it. There are no intoxicating liquors unless they are also spirituous liquors, and I used the word ‘spirit- uous’ as well as ‘malt and vinous. “The wets desired ihat it be made to appear clearly it was a prohibitory amendment. The drys objected to that. Inasmuch as neither the wets nor the drys agree, the title to the act was prepared by me, and I am con- fident if adopted it will be constitu- tional. The responsibility of fixing the ballot now rests with the court and not with myself, havin; dis- charged -my duty as I saw it.” TRAVELERS COMPLAINING OF DOUBLE TRACK PLATFORMS (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, June 19.4(Special.)—C. W.
