In recently expressed opinion on
the ballots to be used at the forthcom-
my election Attorney General Wilson
saws:
Il think It safe to hold that at this election
there can he but two forms Of ballots As expressed
in section gone in favor Of all the proposed
amendments aud the other against all Of them -
aud, a If to more fully express his
meaning be, i'll another place, SAYS
Each voter must vote for all OF the proposed
amendments as one proposition or against all OF
them, and any ballot which fails to carry out this
ieten.- sh-"id DO lieco'r'ioi by tI., inrpcctUis
With all due regard for the opinion
of the first law officer of the state The
HERALD would suggest that in the
above opinions Mr.. Wilson has assumed
an untenablc position, basing his argu-
ment on a wrong premise. The state
constitution, article II. section /, after
defining the mode of procedure in case
of amendments to the constitution,
adds:
submitted they shall be submitted in such a
manner that the people may vote for or against
such amendments separately.
Mr. Wilson, ignoring or overlooking
this explicit language of the constitution
predicatcs his opinion on the premise
that the legislature is the sole arbitrator
in questions of tins kind; or, in other
words that the legislature can alter and
amend the constitution at will. which
the yeriest tyro in the school of consti-
tutional law knows to b. absurd. 1t is.
therefore, more charitable 70 suppose
that the Attorney General overlooked
rather than ignored the lines above
quoted. II was plainly the intent of the
Trainers of the state constitution TO give
to the people perfect control over all
questions submitted to them and not al
low any "riderS' on constitutional
amendments such As would obtain were
he above opinions correct The first
Ihrcc amendments submitted to the peo-
pie this fall; namely. those to section 4.
article 4 section >, article and
section /, article 1, are SO inseparably
connected and interviewer, bearing, as
they do, on the election of members and
meeting of the legislature, that one can
not be rejected without vtiating the
VIII lie But in the case of the fourth
amendment. that to section 2l. article
{, this does not hold good. This section
deals solely with the compensation Of
members, aud is in no way connected
with or inseparable from those preceding
it, and can stand or fall ON its own mer-
its. II is. in fact separate amend
mcnt and A. such both by the spirit
and letter III the constitution csn be
voted down or up IS distinct PROPOSE
ton. For the Attorney General to hold
otherwise as he does in his recent opin-
ion. shows either willful desire to mis-
understand facts or criminal ignor-
ance of the constitution

candidates on either ticket from the
head to the foot cannot but rebound to
the advantage of the Republican side.
Gen. Jerry Rusk. who leads the Republi-
can ticket is no new man in the political
field; he has served the people of west
Wisconsin often and well in the legisla-
ture and in Congress; whether holding
official position or living his simple
home life among his neighbors of YER
non county not one breath of scandal
or an intimation that he has not served
his constituents to the best of his ability
has ever cast the least shadow of suspi-
cion upon his reputation. To the many
boys in blue of Grant county Jerry Rusk
is endeared by other and stronger ties;
by those born of the battle field ard the
forced march, the camp fire and the
bivouac. Many brave soldier boy had
reason to remember with gratitude the
big, broad shouldered Colonel of the
Twenty-fifth. And now, when he comes
before them for their suffrages, the rep
resentative of the grandest party that
this republic has produced in its Gen.
tury's growth, it is not probable that
they will turn their backs on him. As
a man, as soldier, as statesman,
General Jerry Rusk is entitled to THEN
votes and he will get them.
The companions of General Rusk on
the state ticket are no less entitled to
the suffrages of every Republican than
he. Able, talented, representative men
of their sections, the ticket presents in
It's entity as good list of names as has
ever been offered for the consideration
of the people
As regards the county ticket there |:
little to be said, as the different candi.
its SO thoroughly appreciated that com.
ment is superfluous. The able record
of Senator Ryland is already known,
he has had the experience of two
years term in the upper house and the
knowledge of men and things born o
these years of novitiate will prove of in
estimable benefit to his constituents.
Mr.. Stevens, the candidate for the as
sembly from this district. is no new
man. For many years he has proven
to the inhabitants of western Grant the
stuff of which he is made. A consistent
temperance man, Mr.. Stevene comedies
with other prominent men of that party
in the belief that temperance and poll
tics have nothing in common and tina
the former should be entirely separated
from the other. A business man of un,
