Herrin and the Southern pacific Company, who have debauched, polluted and corrupted our state.” “While I do not by any means believe the initiative, the referendum, and the recall are the panacea for all our political ills, yet they do give to the electorate the power of action when desired, and they do place in the hands of the people the means by which to protect themselves. -- Hiram Johnson
