Yet that is exactly what the supreme court of this state did when it de- clared that the preambles to two initiative bills contain argumentative matter and therefore the bills cannot be considered in that form by the voters or law-making body of the state. If the court can dictate what may not go into a preamble before the people may cast their votes on a measure, it is not hard for the judges to also every remaining section of the proposed TO CALL A HALT. stretch their decision to cover IT IS HIGH TIME Undiluted Americanism ITH the time drawing near for a nation-wide strike of the four great railroad brotherhoods, by which they hoped to compel the roads to adjust differences of many years’ standing, the trainmen have announced that in event of war with Mexico they propose to indefinitely abandon their plans and continue to operate tr Mexico if desired by the United States government. Moreover, the decision of the chiefs of the four orders was enthusiastically, received by the mem- bers. This is patriotism of the right brand. Had the trainmen been purely selfish, there could be no better time for a strike than now, for tying up the lines would mean a tremendous blow to the railroads because of the loss of the government business. The trainmen might, in fact, have pretty nearly dictated the terms of settlement. ate but it could not force an individual to work. The trainmen are unselfishly passing up their opportunity.
