teen years later our county officers were ordered
to be elected by the people instead Of by the
Legislature These were recOgnitions Of the I'M
proved intelligence Of the people; and can We say
there has been no improvement since those
periods, and that the people are not now lit 70
be trusted with this proposed change? But,
says one, they do not desire it they satisfied
as it is. And why is it so The reason is obyi-
Gus. 1t has thus far been so remote from them,
having no direct action in the matter, they have
concerned themselves but little about It, and, So
far as they are concerned, have let u 20 by de-
fault. And now | repeat, is it not desirable to
educate the people to know their Constitution, to
take an interest IN its revision, and have a final
action in this revision? Other States do IL.
Even in the South. where there Is not supposed
to be a moety Of the intelligence and education
there is in Vermont, the Government require %
submission of their constitutions TO vote Of the
people. And shall II be sad that here m en-
Hghtentd Vermont, a Council OF Ocusors OF IL

To the Honorable Council Of Ceasors:
Your Committee who were instructed by
resolution of this body to inquire whether the
provisions Of the 9th Chapter of the General
Statutes, relating to the traffic in intoxicating
drinks, have been duly enforced, and if it
be lound that said provisions have not been SO
enforced, to report to the causes of said fail
ure, report that they have attended to the duty
assigned them and find that the law is not and
has not been enforced. As to the cause your
Committee find that this law. like many others
on our statutes, is one whose execution the public
does not demand. and officers whose duty it is
to enforce the law very willing to be relieved
Of that duty if the public do not demand its
enforcement. n. W. FRENCH,
for Committee.
On motion Of Mr.. French, adjourned.
