Excerpt from The Referendum Ballot There will be some amendments for the purpose of improving the working of the Ontario Temperance Act.

This proposal. Is not new to Hon curable 'members of the House.' The Government made a public announcement of its intention in this connection some time ago.

The intent is simply to bring the essential points to the at tention of citizens, that they may have a full com prehension of the nature and tendencies of the system which they are asked to substitute for the system established by the founders of the Republic. Incompleteness must of necessity characterize such a work as this covering a movement in pro gross and changing in aspects, here and there, as it bounds on. The data are brought up to the spring of 1912, when measures for the introduc tion of the devices in whole or in part are pend ing in various States. Accordingly a supplement ary edition may later be brought out revising the present issue, and bringing the text to date.

Excerpt from Reclaiming the Ballot Considering the Vital importance of the ballot, it would naturally be expected that every safeguard would be thrown around the process of voting. Quite the contrary Seems to be the case. NO American com munity of which we are aware is willing to spend any considerable amount of money in giving the voter a proper polling place or in any sane effort to assure a correct counting of the ballots after they are cast.

Excerpt from Ballot Landed proprietors imagine they have a right to the votes of their tenants; and instances, in every election, are numerous where tenants have been dis missed for voting contrary to the wishes of their landlords. In the same manner strong combinations are made against tradesmen who have chosen to think, and act for themselves in political matters, rather than yield their opinions to the solicitations of their customers. There is a great deal of tyranny and injustice in all this. I should no more think of asking what the political opinions of a shopkeeper were, than of asking whether he was tall or short, or large or small: for a difference of 2-15 per cent. I would desert the most aristocratic butcher that ever. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from On the Ballot: From the Westminster Review Besides the class, of whom we have hitherto spoken, who think that only the farce of voting should exist, - there is another class of our public men, who say, that they to whom the suffrage is given ostensibly, in England, exercise it substantially. These men, of course, hold, that such a portion of the people as, in England, have the show, should have the reality, of voting; otherwise they would belong to the class of whom we have already treated, and of whom it is not at present necessary to say any thing more. It is implied in the supposed existence of such a class, that they believe the true, not the pretended, exercise of the power of choosing by the people who vote, to be necessary to good government. The good arising from the freedom of suffrage being upon this supposition the greatest possible, the evil from corrupted suffrage, corrupted either by hope of reward or dread of punishment, the greatest possible - what would men do, who were in earnest about the attainment of this good, escape from this evil 2' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Operation of the Initiative, Referendum, and Recall in Oregon J. N. Teal, Practical Workings of the Initiative and Referendum in Oregon, Cin cinnati Conference for Good City Government, 1909, pp. 309, 310. Cf. Oregonian, Nov. 28, 1902, p. 6, col. 1 H. W. Scott, ibid., Oct. 16, 1907, p. 11, col. 3. Although it was adopted by a majority of eleven to one, a great many people did not know what they were voting for. The friends of the measure had been working judiciously for it for years, had secured the endorsement of the newspapers, many of the leading men of the state, and had by shrewd management got possession of the political parties, to the extent, at least, that all candidates printed 'vote for Initiative and Referendum' on all their election cards and bill posters and were all lined up to advocate the measure during election: Many did not know what they were voting for, simply following the rest. H. Denlinger, Arena, vol. 38, pp. 83 - 4 Such statements are repeated by Oregonians again and again, both in regard to the members of the legislature and the people, and are widely believed to be true.

In February 1959, Switzerland held a referendum on women’s suffrage. The men voted ‘no’. In this powerful novella, Clare O’Dea explores that day through the eyes of four very different Swiss women. Vreni is a busy farmer’s wife, longing for a break from family life. Her grown-up daughter Margrit is carving out an independent life in Bern, but finds herself trapped in an alarming situation. Esther, a cleaner, is desperate to recover her son who has been taken into care. Beatrice, a hospital administrator, has been throwing herself into the ‘yes’ campaign. The four women’s paths intersect on a day that will leave its mark on all their lives.
