to take the 100000 acres of internal i'm
provement lands, with their proceeds.
Or say what they will take. If they are
not willing to make proposition. say
to the people Ego slow ;" and keep your
powd dry, Governor Pillsbury uses
the following language in regard to this
bond question ;-"Can there remain a
possible plea for the nonpayment of a
debt thus honestly contracted"
Now sir wish to state a few facts in
regard to this matter. The Legislature
Of 1857 and 1858 had no power to grant
aid to railroad companies without an
amendment to our constitution. An
amendment was provided. A special
election was called to vote on the amend.
ment, providing for the state to aid rail-
road companies. The legislature adj
journed. Public meetings were called.
Public speakers were on hand to advO-
cate the amendment, heard one of the
speaker say 'svote for this amendment j;
our railroads will be built and we will
never be called upon to pay a cent of
principal or interest on the bonds
Who planned this scheme? Was it
not the railroad men? / do not think
they intended to build the railroads at
that time, for they graded t'w miles
ofroad here and there and got our bonds.
BY looking at the constitutional amend
ment find the following Each COM
pany shall make provision for the pune
tual payment and redemption Of all
bonds issued and delivered as aforesaid
to said company and for the punctual
payment of the interest which shall ac-
crue thereon in such manner as to exon
crate the treasury OF this state from any
advances of money for that purpose.
II think the amendment was carefully
drawn by the railroad companies to de-
ceive the people The railroad COM
panies got our bonds and in few years
they got the road beds and lands and |
have no doubt but they laughed in their
hearts and said to themselves, chow we
have fooled the people!"
''Oh what tangled web we weave,
When first we practice to deceive
Some make great hue and cry about
the credit of our state. | am not alarmed
about it. When the state wanted mon
ev to build our pubic buildings think
we had no trouble in getting it; and |
think the interest has been paid prompt
ly. And il this was debt honestly con-
tracted | think the people would cheer
fully pay it. do not think the bonds
cost the bondholders on an average %
cents on the dollar think the whole
scheme was conceived in fraud aud
brought forth in rascality. | did not
vote for the amendment and l do not
believe in paj ing a premium for wrong
doing

and then only with the entire acquies-

Mitchell leaves that same afternoon for

CORRESPONDENCE.
Amendments to the Constitution CT. the
State.-How they should be Made.

The recent discussions in the Legisla
ture, and elsewhere, as to whether tn
amendments to the constitution, submit
ted at the time OF the last general cleo
ton. were legally ratified. adnonlsh US
not only OF the necessity OF setting the
question at rest, as to all future amend
ments, but of the danger to be appre-
hended from permitting the fundamental
law to be changed at any time by less
than Il majority OF All the votes Of the
State.
Our constitution, you will remember,
was the result Of Il compromise between
rival conventions. each assuming to have
the entire matter in charge, but neither
having fully completed its l.bors The
committee of conference, appointed by
the separate conventions, agreed upon Il
constitution. which each convention hur-
riedly adopted, III the iull belief that
otherwise either two separate constitu-
tons would be submitted. or one or both
OF the conventions would break up with
out having accomplished anything; and
in such event the State would be delayed
admission into the Union. Every ob-
lection 10 the instrument was ,ilenced by
the assertion that all defects could be
cured under the liberal provision in re-
gard to amendments. Without doubt
the article on that subject was framed
with direct reference to this end. II is
seriously 10 be regretted. however, that
its precise meaning will admit oi any
doubt. Now whatever may he the de-
cHion q. the courts. in regard to the
validity at amendments heretofore sub
mitted. it is time now to make 1t 4 little
more formal and difficult TO effect u
change i'll the fundamental law OF the
State.
shall not now discuss the PROPOSE
ton. hu. will merely suggest that the
Legislature be urged immediately TO
propose and submit to the people for
their approval or rejection an amend
mcnt 10 the effect that no amendment
hereafter submitted at the annual cleo.
ton for State and county officers shall
be valid rs IL II part OF the constitution,
unless y majority of the voters present
and voting 1T said general election.
shall have voted therefor And that no
amendment submitted 1t any. other cleo
ton or time shall be considered ratified
unless it shall have received votes in its
favor equal to q majority OF all the votes
east al the time y such submission.
Such an amendment, especially if de-
clared not TO affect the question OF the
validity OF those heretofore submitted,
would. think. be heartily endorsed oy
the people and would put an end tothis
annual tinkering NJ the constitution.
