FIRST CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND.
MENT-YES.

%SnELBINA, Mo-, Oct. Goth, 1884.
EDITOR INTELLIGENCER-Dear SIR
You have no doubt carefully exam
ined and fully appreciate the impor-
tance to the people of the proposed
Constitutional Amendment creating a
new Court of Appeals to be held at
Kansas City, and charging the terri
torial jurisdiction of the st. Louis
Court of Appeals. The success OF u
supreme judicial system for years to
come will certainly depend in a great
measure upon its adoption, since, if de-
feated, our Legislature will not soon
submit to the people another PROPOSE
ton bearing upon this subject, and
Jul supreme court will be left in the
future, as in the past, to struggle with
a task which is beyond the possibility
of accomplishment.
Having taken an active interest in
this measure while pending in the leg
islature, and being DESTROYS of secur-
ing the cooperation of its friends
throughout the state III an effort to in
sure its adoption, L take this mean of
soliciting your influence toward bring
ing about that much desired result.
Timely action i'll directing public at
tention to its merits, and the necessity
for its adoption, both through the press
and from the stump, will not only pre-
pare the people for voting intelligently
upon it, but preserve it from that pub
lie apathy which is SO generally the
fate of proposed constitutional amend
ments.
The made quacy of our present judic-
lai system to meet the constantly in
%creasing demands Of litigation, led our
legislature to resort to the temporary
expedient of a Supreme Court
Commission. Such a commission
has never been regarded by res
pectable jurists as a desirable
part OF a we'll devised judicial system,
but rather as an auxiliary, to be resort
ed to only in cases of emergency and
to be tolerated no longer than the
necessities which called it into existence
absolutely demand. This commission
may be relieved from duty at any time
by the Supreme Court, or abolished by
act of the Legislature. 1t will hardly
be contended by W its strongest ad-
vocates, that its continued existence is
desirable in the face of a measure
which, if adopted, must prove infini-
tcly superior and no more expensive.
The necessity which gave rise to the
commission clearly demonstrates the
fact that our Supreme Court cannot
perform the work assigned to it under
our constitution as it now stands, and
hence we must look to this proposed
amendment for its permanent relief.
L desire, therefore, to call your at.
tention to the following brief summary
of what may be regarded as its most
prominent and meritorious features,
and also to some of the facts which
render its adoption absolutely neces-
sary:
First-as to the necessity of it's adop-
ton:
AT the first term of our supreme
court after its consolidation, which
was the October term, 1876, the mum.
Der of cases upon it's docket undispos-
ed of was s91. OF this number, 156
bad been transferred from the st.
