Whether the Governor prorogues tbe present assembly or it adjourns sine die of its own motion next Tuesday, it is centrally believed by the Republican leaders lose to the Governor that he will call another special session at cine to consider teveral matters of a "progressive" nulure. It is held by some that the Governor could a bill to provide for an advisory vote ou presidential candidates, the same as is now provided in the case of candidates tor the United States Senate. In Hue with this proposition.

"The Illinois constitution of 1 7 I provides for a referendum on all banking laws. Thereby tbe passage of corrupt or unnlse laws affecting the banking interests have been rrevenled.

"Honed business in Illinois ha? been harassed by threats of passing inimlral legislation. The people must protect general business, as they have "he banking business, by giving the people the rlcht by petition of referendum on laws Id general, so that the people may veto at the ballot box such laws as ihey may see fit. Honest business enterprise must be protected against reprisals by dishonest legislators. "The referendum, the people's veto power. Is the remedy adopted already in twelve states In the Union.

"To protect the people against the corrupt defeat, by dishonest business enterprise, of laws the people want, the people must have the initiative the people's lawmaking power. If the Legislature refuses to act. the people should have the power of acting themselves. And that is the Initiative." Sutherland Denounces Referesdsm, At the Marquette club laet night Alderman Charles M. Thomson, representing the Insurgents, and Douglas Sutherland, representing the Civic federation, debated the proposed initlstive.

referendum and recall, Mr. Thomson contending for It and Mr. Sutherland denouncing it as a socialistic proposition that would upset the whole sys-H tern of representative as well as good government. In contending that the proposed Initiative and referendum would strike a blow at home rule and local In Chicago. Mr.

Sutherland said: "The Initiative strikes at tbe principle of heme rule and makes equitable compromise in legislation Impossible. The first federal lcltlatlve in Swltierland in 1S3 raised an lsue of race prejudice and deprived the people of two cantons of religious rights. Id 190S. by the so-called absinthe Initiative, the people of the French cantons were deprived of a large Industry by the vote of the rest of the federation, where the use of absinthe was unknown. "In Oregon 100 farmer fishermen along the Rogue river were deprived of part of their livelihood at the Instigation of sports men seeking recreation, and by a minority cte rolled up In other parts of the state.

In Oregon also people of one section desiring to establish normal schools or desiring to change county boundary lines have been outvoted, by tbe rest of the state. Initiative iHlriaest of Wealthy- "Since the Initiative petition represents nothing except tbe financial or organisation strength behind It, and since money can always command or create an organisation, the initiative will ultimately be an instrument in the hands of the wealthy rather than In the hands of the. people. This is borne out by the testimony of Dr. Emil O.

Hirsch. who spent a great portion of last summer In Swltierland. and who says that the initiative there is now thoroughly under control of the wealthy and the politicians, and is not an instrument for. popular legislation at alL "Dr. Hirsch was told repeatedly while in Swltierland that the people are becoming weary of tbe vast number of questions presented to them and the frequency Of elections: that they pay less and less attention to these questions, and would gladly be rid of the Initiative If they only knew how." Alderman Thomson, In depleting bar he -vn- -n-: 1 i I V- i v.

"For proof that this result will be achieved, note the lac. ihHt every crook and grafter at every iear-crook and near-grafter is bitterly opposed to these policies. Everj one opposed to tLc initiative and. referendum is not a crook or a grafter but every one of that stripe Is to be found among those who are opposed to them.

"As another result, the electorate will be developed and elevated. It has deteriorated through lack of exercise, owing to tbe delegated system of government. Give the people the chance to engage in some of the functions of government directly, when occasion rt quires, and the possibility of achieving results will awaken tbtm to a healthy activity. Would Elevate Lrrllalnre. "The Legislature Itself will be elevated, which is desirable, tven though it be due to realization of the fart that the people hold a big stick.

If the people have these remedies they may use them but seldom. This is no argument against tbem. It is a remedy of, the hight st value, the bare possesion of which is an insurance against the nee sslty of itf use. "Ten states already adepted the initiative and referendum. Bight Legislatures this year have passed constitutional amendments submitting this question to the people of their states.

"Practical experience shows that thi power I soterly and Intelligently uted where placed In the hands of the pf ople. The Judgment and conscience of the people are the greatest conservative fcrcts in any state the foundation upon which all government rests." POINTSTOSUCCESSOF EUROPEAN CATHOLICS The Rev. Frederick Seidenburg of Loyola University Tells Irish Fel work in Europe and compared it with that of America. "Catholic social work In Europe." he declared. "Is carried on much more thoroughly than In the United States.
