What the People Want for Legislative Reform in Plain Talk
The piece lists ten public agenda items: a new election law, a six percent interest law with penalties, four months of free schooling for both races, effective trust laws with enforced judges and solicitors, a state reformatory for youth, a major county government reform, repeal or elimination of the homestead law and related credit methods, repeal or enforcement of the state income tax, a code commission to simplify the code, and reduced expenses with lower fees. It argues legislators should focus on these issues and avoid local distractions, warning officials who ignore popular wishes to stay off the grass.
