a Amendments . la Constitution.

Quatre amendments d la Constitution
de Ia Louisiana seront proposes aux vo-
tans, i 16lection de Novembre proclaim.
L'un dit:
''Aucune personnc qui, quelque epo-
Que Que ce soft, aura etc collecteur de
taxes, soft d'Etat, de Paroisse ou de mu-
nicipalite, ou qui autrement aura pu a.
voir en- maniement des deniers publics,
ne sera eligible 4 la Legislature ou au-
Gun emploi de confiance ou de profit, sill
ma prealablement obtenu une decharge
du montant par lui collect6 GU lui confie.
lie deuxieme article propose a Ia rati
fication des votans, dit:
"Aucune personne DC pourra occuper
I'm emploi public, nj voter, nj agir CONNIE
jure, qui aura etc convaincue de trahl-
son, de parjure, de faux, dc corruption.
ou de tout autre crime punishable par un
emprisonnement al Peuicentier, ou qui
sera interdit."
LIE troisieme article que la Legislature
propose (non pas d'amender, celui-ci,
mais de rayer entierement de la Consti-
tution) est Particle so, qui lit ainsi:
lie Gouverneur sera ineligible pen
dant les quatre annees qui suivront lie
terme pour lequel il etc elu."
En- adoptant Particle deuxiemement
mentionne, Particle 80 de la Constitution
sc trouye abroge, ct nous ne doutons pas
que la grande majorite des votans Sc pro-
noncera en- favour de son abrogation ct
en- favour de Particle que Pom propose de
lui substituer.
Scion nous, Particle prcmierement emu
mere est excellcnten principe, ct devrait
6tre adopte.
II men est pas dc meme de Particle re-
latif au Gouverneur, que ION propose
d'abroger. Nous voudrions lc voir main
tenu, parce que c'est un des rares prin-
cipes democratiques que contieune notre
pr&sente Constitution. A l'epoque on
nous vivons; menac6s de voir sc perpe-
tuer la politique radicale ruinense Ia
quelle nous auAnles en- proie, il faudrait
surtout empfcller N. Warmoth de Sc gref-
fer sur lie siege quill occupe aujourd'hui,
ct il faut bien Sc convaincre que Get arti-
Gle tend supplement a ce but.
lie quatrieme article propose l'appro-
baton des votaps lit ainsi:
LA dette de rEtat ne pourra etre aug
ment6e jusqn'au montant de vingt-cinq
millions de piastres avant le premier jan :
vier mil huit cent quatreyingt-dIx."
Inutile de dire que les democrates 70
teront en- faveur de Get article, tandis que
les radicaux ailneront mieux avoir carte
blanche ct puiser a deux mains dams lie
tresor de lEtat.
