Now that the senate has approved the governor's code there remains only the supreme court to determine a few of the important questions and objections to it. Altho the official record of the senate will show only three votes against the code, it should be borne in mind that 13 senators voted against the emergency clause, and that at all times the strange situation existed in which no senator was enthusiastic for the measure.

Why not start something, at once? the | an intelligent by political maneuvering and not by the merits of the code. | In a final drive for the code, the highly intelligent argument was used by the republican press that it was a document} presented to a republican legislature by a republican gov- ernor. . . If the supreme.court holds that the code is within the letter of the law, tho plainly violating the spirit of the con- stitution, there remains nothing except to hope that, despite all, it will work out successfully. It is a gigantic hope, to be sure. But it is Gov. Hart's code | Perhaps the pride of authorship, however limited in ex- tent, will give him the zeal to make it a success from the standpoint of the people at large. Woe to his political future if he dees not. For the record stands clear, He has thrust the code upon the people of this state despite the following objections 1. The code is an evasion of the state constitution and directly opposed to the mandate of the people in the elec-| tion of November 2 with relation to the salaries fixed for elective officers. 2. Tho proclaimed to be modeled upon the Lowden plan | jin Illinois, the Hart code is essentially something else.| The Lowden code consolidated offices to cut expenses of government. The Hart code principally changes the policy jot government, and q en its sponsors cannot demonstrate jany reduction in cost®of government. ti | 8 The emegency clause in the code is fraudulent in, |intent and in fact. There is no emergency which demands} a revolution in the organization of our state offices so that {the people must be denied a right to pass on it by a) referendum vote. 4. It is unfair to labor because it does not provide for! labor representation on industrial boards, violating the lessential idea that labor matters are best solved when jeraployers and employes both can sit at the conferenee | }table. In this respect the code is provocative of industrial | | warfare rather | 5. It places both executive and legislative powers in the} | hands of one man—something that is contrary to the spirit) of the federal and the state constitutions. 6. It gives the governor control not only over the usual |appointive officers, but also over the elective offic ot| the state by permitting him to add to their salaries: 7. state government that the queen lies in «and writes fairy befor her b better before she eats THE STRANG BY EDMUND VANC I was rained in dear old Said the st As he stroked the wintr Hie perambulating be anger, ol “L wan rained in old Chic And his brows were Whe And I also played my than industrial peace. |*1 waghtained in old St Bald the Stranger, wit Ere I sailed the seas wi Fre my cup of life ra I was raised in old Se rs Where the warring wav tle 7.

Altho created in secret, it is but a human document, and the demand that it be passed without any amendment, j without the dotting of an “i” or the crossing of a “t” is lindicative of the arbitrary attitude the very construction }of the code created for its framers. In the administration of state affairs Gov. Hart must} overcome these objections—and he must make good on the promise to reduce the expenses of state government.

The tragedy of their great metropolis means at most that they must find other markets} for their porduce, but a hungry world will buy their produce and ap idle Vienna will be left to starve. Vienna’s fate is an example of the artificial life of all) \large cities. They are not self-sustaining. They exist jonly upon the excess products from a great hinterland! given in return for service or taken as tribute. The funda-, mental population of any nation is that part which dwells | upon the land. Those who live in cities come after, in the} |fmal count.
