HE ARGUS Of last week comes out
squarely against the proposed Constitu-
tional Amendments, and gives four reasons
why they should not be adopted as q ci'-
Zen and taxpayer we are sOTrY to sec our
contemporary so declare, but that being it's
position, We are pleased to sec il pronounce
one way or the other. i Journal.
The above courteous notice of our
1t raj on the subject OF the pro-
proposed amendments to our State Cons,i-
tuition affords us real pieaau.e because II
indicates that we are TO have from our es-
teemed contemporary calm, fair and hon
est discussion of ,his very important nleas.
IRE, while the ARGUS In this, as In all other
matters of public interest, will take decid-
ed grounds /; yet we deem it our first duty.
by fair and impartial discussion of this
measure to ascertain whether it's defeat
would be cause for regret TO apy "citjzcn
or taxpayer" Should we upon such dig
cussion, or the discussion oY diners, reach
such conclusion, we should uuhesitatiDg-
ly Change our course anI support the
Amendments, for our only purpose is TO
arrive 1t ~ intelligent conclusion and 10
enable our readers 30 the same. There are
beyond doubt soma good things ia the
Amendments, but so far as we have been
eble 70 sec the evil prepondegatos. Bat
In whatever discussion we indulge weshal
bring out the evil and the good, and let the
people decide; for in their judgment We
repose every confidence, and should they
conclude that, upon tho whole, the good
prepondtrates, then we shall feel :ha, we
have done our duty in presenting to them
the meesure az il 80.

WE learn through superintendent Bay
.es that the publication in the ARGUS OF
the Communications from Corners school
house, signed "Mossback," Was regarded
by some of our Portland friends as oppos-
ing the Normal Seminary at that place
We do not see how such construction
could be placed upon n. M; certainly moth
ing of the kind was intended. We have
a very high appreciation OF the efforts of
our friends at Portland 10 build up the
Normal Seminary, ard we shall always
take great pleasure in doing what we can
to assist them ; the purpose OF the ARGUS
is to build up Preston county, and the
way TO do so is TO support her institutions.
This We have done and shall continue
to do. We have even supposed that the
county could have furnished g person well
qualified to superintend our schools.
Yet we regard the communications in
question as legitimate criticisms of the
public acts of Il public officer, and as long
as our correspondents conflne themselves
to Legitimate field we shall allow them
space to discuss public measures and the
acts of public mCn.
