much zeal for many years in the Diocese
of Mobile, where he was Vicar General
of his Right Rev. oompatriot, Dr.. Por-

try upon the duties uf their respective offices
shall extend and apply to all other Offices elect
ed under the stale Constitution, who have no,
already taken The oath Of Office, and commcnc'
ed the performance o, their official duties.
This section, ,s il exists ut present in the
Constitution, reads IA follows:
SEo. l. The ium " each Of the Executive
officers named IN tbs article, shall commence
upon taking the cath of Office, after the State
shall be admitted by Congress iuto the Union,
aud continue unit the first Monday IN January
lsGO, except the Auditor, who shalt continue IN
office until the first Monday Ia January, lsdi
and until their successors shall have been duly

The effect ol the adoption NJ this amend

Of the Constitution, as il now stands, our
State govcrnnen, cauuot be fully organiznd

We hope the vote in favor Of the amend.
mcnt, will not only BE- unanimous, but large
enough To show that The people oi MinncSo
In are in earnest in rscn,ing the ndigui,cs

ment. II the trainers Of the Constitution
had, for an instant, entertained the opinion
that our admission would have been delayed
even TO this time, provision would have
been adopted authorizing the Inauguration
Of the State officers months ago.
Congress, in delaying our admission in
order 10 secure the endorsement OF gross
outrage upon the rights of the people OF
Kansas and the principles of popular sover-
eighty, has shamelessly and criminally viola
ted the guarantees Of the enabling act and
the people Of Minnesota owe II not only to
themselves but TO the welfare and prosperity
Of the State, to resent the iDdignity. We
hope to scc the proposed amendment adopted
by the unanimous vote Of the people.
