The Present Constitution.

A we'll known Helena lawyer said
yesterday that he sincerely hoped that
when the territory became converted
into statehood 1t would hold to the ex-
listing constitution.
Why?
"Obvious reasons. There was not
half the attention paid to the past
convention by the big corporations as
there would be to q new one. The
convention last held was made up OF q
body Of sober honest men who did
their work well and gave the territory
a constitution which IL excellent In all
Its parts. 1t was not noticed much by
the railroads because IL was then
thought that the body was making AN
organic law for an Insignificant out OF
the way sort Of q place, and a law that
would not be csllod upon much any
way. They didn't think that the law
then made would he the organic stat
ute of the great state Of Montana. 10
would be very different If another
convention would be held. These
corporations would be fully aroused
to the Importance of the work being
done, and the strongest lobbies would
be brought to bear upon the individual
members. A convention il not ike a
Legislature. In the latter body every
mar wants to be reelected and he will
