amendment of the Constitution, leading
feature of which is a submission of proposed
amendments to a final vote of the freemen,
occasioned protracted and warm discussion.
But it was fated from the outset, though its
friends refused to see it. The people Oliver
mont have long had enough of Councils of Cen
sors and of expensive Conventions, meeting
to reject unnecessary and uncalled for pro
positions of amendment of the Constitution
anu they have not neglected to use the first
opportunity ever given them by Council Of
Censors, to destroy 20 awkward, expensive
and undemocratic portion of our State
machinery. This amendment was adopted
by vote of l24 to s.. In this action also
the Convention has faithfully obeyed the
Will of the majority OF the voters, and for this,
as for most of it's action, it deserves, and has
won, the praise and earnest thanks Of the
peOple.

The Constitutional Convention.
FRIDAY, June 10,
EVENING.
In committee of the whole, the third article Of
amendment, as proposed by the Council of Cen
sors, was taken up as follows
ARTICLE 3.
/ Whenever the Office Of senator or town representa-
tves shall become vacant from any cause the lesl
lature may provide by law for filing such vacancy
Mr. Phelps Of Burlington moved to recon-
mend o the CT .on that it is not expeden'
to adopt the amendment.
Mr. Bingham If Stowe thought we ought 10
recommend the adoption of the amendment, IN
asruch as there il now no provision Tor ming
such vacancies.
Mr. Phelps opposed the amendment on the
ground That It was not sufficiently dehnlte as 10
the method in which vacancies should be niied'
lie thought the amendment defective.
Mr. Field of Brsttleboro briefly favored the
amendment, and cited instances where great In
justice had been done for the want Of such pro-
vision.
Mr.. Marsh Of Woodstock, thought it not diff
cult to harmlniza the amendment with the exist
ing provisions Of the constitution. 1t merely
allowed the legislature to regulate tine manner IN
which the vacancies should allied.
Mr. Lang!on of New Haven briefly opposed
the amendment
Mr.. kellogg. Of Benson said that it had been
decided thst senators ami representatives. we're
not officers il the sense that gave the Governor
the power to ill vacancies. As 90 Senator'S lie
constitution already provided for hlling the
vacancies. and he read the article which
made provision for filling vacancies in case
Of Senators. He believed also that any pro-
per construction Of the constitution would give
the same right in relation 10 representatives, anu
he citel cases where representatives, had Deen
elected to ill vacancies, and that provision had
been made therefor by the legislature. lie
thought there was no imperative demand Tor the
proposed amendment, but he would adopt the
amendment that there might be no doubt 10 It.
gard to the matter
Mr.. Walton Of Montpelier thought thit W-th
the prospect before Us 81 Biennial sessions OF the
legislature, sui tina; the ~ork OF two Yelts must
be done under ore election, there should ue some
i-lr.s.ou .1r filing vacancies thar might occur
But be jhc4eht the Council Of tcnsors had been
particularly unfortunate in the phrseJlogy OF
;ae amendment
Mr. Patterson Of Newbury said be was in-
-tructed 10 vote against the amendment, and be
should cLeerfuly do so.
MIR. Phelps Of Burlington sail be had no i0ub,
ms 10 what was the intention of the Council of
eu-ors in framing this amendment, which VS.
20 allow Of the -u.c;neut Of a general law pro-
wiling fer filling the vacancies Bat they bad
faded to 90 s., and had only allowed the i@ss,a-
ture 90 mskeprc for tue filling of my yacau-

The Last Of the Council of Cens8rs.

The Last Of the Council OF CensSrs.
We congratulate the citizens of Vermont
on having seen the last of the Councils of
Censors. Fifteen years ago the FREE PREss
stood alone, we believe, among the Vermont
press, in maintenance of the position that
the Council of Censors was a cumbrous, ex-
pensiye and useless feature of cur State gov
eminent. Seven years later we renewed the
opposition to it, on substantially the same
grounds that We have urged from first to last,
and with the concurrence and aid Of others
Of the Vermont papers and of many inielli-
gent citizens We believed Their, that if
submitted squarcly to the popular vote the
verdict would have been against a continu-
ance Of the Council. But it was one Of the
its constant tendency was to perpetuate itself.
| |: was but human nature that Censor should
be inclined TO magnify his ctice, and having
reached the honor of holding It, should think
that the Council of Censors was really one

The last Council, though majority oil It's
members did not approve OF the change was
induced TO submit the amendment aboIishIns

suit in ways Of which they were unconscious.
They, not baiided w but pulled down.
