FULTON bUSY.
Oklahoma Congretman Intro-
duces Several Measures.
Washington, Dec. 11.—The new
state of Oklahoma through Repreten
tative Fulton endeavored to engraft
the principles of the Initiative. th<*
referendum and the recall upon th<
constitution of the United States. On
of several bills introduced by Mr. Ful
ton provided that "at all general ele
tions for representatives or delegate
in congress the electors sha'l have th<
right to have printed ou the ballot
the right to exercise their own Jud-
ment on political questions." To the
president the bill gives the "sole au-
thority to pass" on any question pray
ed for. Mr. Fulton's proposal took u
form of a joint resolution for an
amendment to the constitution of tin
United States, as follows:
"Eight per cent of the voters of noi
less than fifteen of the states shall
have the power to propose by petition
any legislation, and 10 per cent of no'
less than fifteen of the states shul'
have the power to propose amend
ments to the constitution and 5 per
cent of not less than fifteen of tlx
states shall have the power to exer
else the referendum by mean's of p
tition to the president."
Another measure proposed by Rep
resentatlve Fulton provides for th<
recall of public officials by an elec
tion to be held in obedience to a p
tition signed by one third of the votoi-
of any congressional district; the go\
ernor of the state in which the peti-
tion originates must then call an ela-
tion within five days to determine
whether the officer complained ol
shall relinquish office and to choose
his successor in the event of dismissal
. Mr. Fulton also introduced the fol
lowing bills; Prohibiting the main
taining of any exchange for margin r
other stock watering transactions, and
mal ing it a felony under the Inter
state commece law to utilize the tefe
graph for that purpose; directing th
secretary of the Interior to at once
place on the pension roll the names
of all survivors of the civil war
whether regulars or volunteers whe
served at least sixty days and so in
creasing pensions that no such sur
vlvor shall receive less than $4C
monthly.
