Pullman, Wash., Friday, October n, 1912 Constitutional Amendments One of the Important duties of the voters at the' coming elect'oo will be to decide upon the adoption or re jection of tour constitutional amend ments. 'Ph.- Spokane Chronicle sum marizes the amendments and the ar guments for and against them us fol lows: Pour constitutional amendments will be on the official ballots in No vember for adoption or rejection in the state at large. Two of these af led a single measure. The first proposed amendment would remove the present constitu tional prohibition against county of ficers holding lice- more than two terms In succession, except ill respect to the county treasurer. li is to be stated on the ballot as follows: "For lor against) the proposed amendment to section 7, of article 1 I of the constitution, removing the pro hibition against county officers ex cept county treasurer, holding office for more than 'wo terms." The last session of the legislature proposed this amendment largely in response to the urgings of various or ganizations of county officials. It was urged that efficiency in office would result from returning the same man and that the' fact that a man had held an office for four years (two terms) should not be' an argu ment against his re-election, provid ed his record was good. The only person who thus far has led any fight against this amend ment has been W. If. Dunphy of Walla Walla, recently a candidate for the democratic gubernatorial nomi nation. Dunphy's argument was that a change in-administration of an of fice would be a frequent check, as the accounts of the retiring offi cial would be BCrupuoUSly investigat ed by the new man. The Walla Walla candidate urged that such a check would at once lessen the dan ger of defalcations and the necessity of examinations by the state board of accountancy. Second on the list to be voted upon In November is the recall amend ment. It will appear on the ballots in this form: "For (or against the proposed amendment to article 1 of the consti tution by adding thereto at the end of said article I two new sections to be- numbered sections 111, and 34 of said article 1. authorizing and pro viding for the recall and discharge of any elective public officer and election of his successor." The recall amendment provides that any elective public officer ex cept a Judge of the superior or su preme court may be made to stand for re-election by the filing against him of petition and statement setting forth that the officer complained of has been guilty of malfeasance or misfeasance or has violated his oath of office, ami setting forth the al leged facts. In the case of a state officer or a county official of a county of the first, second or third class, a peti tion signed by 2: per cent of the vot ers participating in the election at which the official originally was elected, is necessary to bring about the election, In the case of a state senator or representative, a precinct, school district or city official or an official of a county lower than the third class, a '■',:, per cenl petition is necessary. The' amendment does not go farther in the' line- of legislation, but provides that law-; carrying cut these provisions in detail shall be passed by the legislature if the amendment is adopted. In favor of this amendment it has been urged that it will keep public officials at all times within reach of the people, that an unworthy officer may be removed from his position without wailing for the next regular election and that for these reasons officials will be more likely to follow the wishes of their constituents, Against the hill it has been urged that it would tend to make' officials less self-reliant; that all would keep their "ears to. the ground"; that it V.ould discourage able men from seeking office. As the recall amendment, was or iginally introduced by its friends, Judges were not excepted iron its provisions, this change being made in the legislature against the wishes of. the more radical opponents of direct legislation. However, the men who originally introduced the amend ment an' Urging its adoption, taking the ground that another amendment. Including judges, may be passed later. Tin- initiative and referendum amendments are two in number,, It being necessary to amend two sepa rate sections. The questions will ap pear on the ballot in the following form: "For (or against the proposed amendment of section l of article 2 of the constitution of the state of Washington, relating to legislative powers and providing for the initia tive and referendum." "For (or against) the proposed amendment of article 2 of the con stitution of tie- state of Washington, by striking section 31 therefrom, which relates to the times when laws take effect." The adoption of both these amend ments is necessary to make- the In itiative and referendum workable; therefore any voter favoring the In itiative and referendum should vote tor both amendments and. on the re verse, a voter opposed to the pro posed change should vote against both. The initiative- and referendum amendments. in brief, provide that 10 per cent of the number who voted for governor at the last state election may initiate legislation and that 6 per cent may, upon petition, prevent an act of the legislature from going into effect until It has been passed upon at a general election. .In regard to the Initiative, It la provided that to enable a vote t.i be taken, the 10 per cent petition muse he submitted at least four month? trior to a general election If the petition 19 presented 10 d.i/s prior to the session of the legislature, the' proposed measure is to come first before the legislators and. If enacted by them without amendment, the ne canity for presentation to the vot ers at large Is eliminated If the measure Is amended, both the orig inal and amended bills are to be sub mitted to the people. In regard to the referendum it is provided that. if a 6 per cent petition is filed with the secretary of state within 90 days following the ad journment of the legislature, an act may be referred to the- people at large. Appropriation bills for the maintenance of existing public insti tutions and measures for the public peace, health and safety ar" specifi rally excluded from the provisions ol the referendum. The constitutional amendments will appear at the top of the ballot, directly tinder the Instructions to vot ers. Following them will appear the candidates for supieme and superior court judges and next the partisan candidates tor presidential elector*, congressmen, state office, legislature and county offices, In the- order named.
