Defects of the Constitution.

As per announcement, Hon. w.
A. Burleigh and ex-Chief Justice p.
c. Shannon met large audience
at LaBelle's Hall last night, notwith-
standing the bad weather. G. j. B.
Harris, Of Yankton, and one of the
delegates to the Sioux Falls Conven-
ton, was also present, and was called
Oh first, who gave clear statement
Of the manner that the Objectionable
section on taxation was injected into
tho constitution. DR.. Burleigh then
took the floor and in his usual em-
phatic and convincing manner, pro-
ceeded to show the evil effects of the
constitution if it should be adopted
in its present form. Our time and
space forbids giving a complete
rssume Of his speech this week.
Judge Shannon was next introduced
who held his hearers with intense
interest for nearly two hours, by an
eloquent and mastery argument up
on the legal and other phases Of the
document put forth by the Sioux
Falls convention. The Judge is one
Of the most fluent and polished
speakers in the territory, besides bs-
ing, we can say without fear Of con-
tra.liction, the abless lawyer ever up
on our supreme bench. He COM
pletely annihilated the taxation sec
ton under discussion aud showed
conclusively that it was the intent
Of the moneyed corporations u

| their rights. The meeting was high
~ satisfactory, and the people are
awakening to their interests in this
matter.
