Those Of all parties Who desire sound
canservaiive legislation, will be very well
satisfied with the politi al complexion
Of the Legislature. 1t is Just
such Legislature as should be
chosen to make and put before
the people q new Constitution or at least
such reforms as would be equivalent to a

can the Legislature In the face Of the vote
taken upon the prophecy of calling a

The feeling is so strong fol- Constitu.
