legislature would only consider bills which concerned all parts of th" state Lach city and town would set tie its own business legislation would place the grant ing of all franchises in the hands' of

as he now is is a ofound difference ltwsen an agent and a ruler Direct legislation does not propose to do away with representative government but to correct these defects which are mak ing representative governm de'picible The principle is simple It is that the peo ple themselves retain power to legislvte when they desire to do so' We now dele gate this pinr to others entirely Direct is
