The action has been taken. It cannot be cancelled. But this creates no occasion for turmoil and confusion. The first thing to do is simply to await the result of the count on the petitions. If sufficient qualified voters have signed them, or if supplementary petitions fill out the required number, then the date for the special recall election will be set, and THEN will be the time for a plan of campaign which will end best for the interests of the entire city. To maintain the recall in its purity and greatest useful- ness it should only be evoked at a CRISIS in the affairs of a city. Otherwise its real effectiveness, the real purpose for which it was formed, is dissipated. The enemies of ular government would like to see it in continual use. The big special interests are using all their brains and mo and in- fluence to destroy the recall, the initiative and referendum, direct election of senators and all the other people’s measures for which such a desperate struggle is being waged. And they know that if a great measure like the recall is invoked at every small Od tiyipe the PRINCIPLE IS DOOMED. BUT SEATTLE IS NOT GOING TO PERMIT HER NEW-FOUND LIBERTIES TO BE DRAGGED INTO THE MIRE OF SHAME AND DEFEAT. IF THE RECALL ELECTION IS FORCED, THE PEOPLE WILL |FIND A WAY TO CHANGE THE CHUCKLINGS OF “SPECL PRIVILEGE” INTO ANGER AND DIS- MAY AGAIN. J The true principles of the recall must and will be up- held and protected. All that is needed to pull things through ccessfully is careful handling of a difficult and trying situa- tion, in the best interests of the mass of the people of Seattle.
