THE VETO SECURES \ THIRD
VOTE.


When the Governor vetoed the
bill to allow ;he people of Missis-
sippi the simple privilege OF vot-
ing oil tlo qds ,iol vhathor
not they should have a constitu
tional convention, it was known
at once that he could secure tho
necessary third vote in the Senate
to prevent his veto from being
over-ridden.
While the measure passed tho
Senate by a vote Of % to l, of the
sixteen Senators who were absent
only two were opposed to tho
measure, and one of this two, Sen
ator Seal, is probably in his last
illness. Though one other Of the
absent Senators, Ross, voted against
the veto, resenting its arrogance
and the fact that both the Judges
and Chancellors Of noarly all the
districts in the State were here IA.
voring the convention.
THIS left the veto thirteen men
which added to Senator Guice. the
one original opponent, made four
teen and with Nelson and love
who changed from their former
votes in favor of the bill over to
the veto, gave the opponents of
the measure sixteen to nineteen,
which left the measure without the
necessary two-thirds.
The Governor of course would
not have vetoed the measure, un-
til he had it fixed that it would be
sustained, as was strongly indicat-
ed by the Senator from Adams who
said when he arose, "Your measure
is dead"
But il required even then hercu-
lean efforts of a hundred appoin-
tees and men who expecting ap-
pointments, to prevent the veto
from being over-ridden.
The telegraph wires were heavy
with appeals for aid from those
having or expected to have ap-
pointments under our centralizing
constitution, to help them in their
effort to prevent the voice Of the
people from being heard at the
ballot box.
And the bill was defeated, but it
is not dead. The demand for a
constitutional convention has
grown steadily during the past
years.
1t grew until at last in 1886 il
had a majority in both branches
of the Legislature, though its ma
iority in the House was beaten by
shrewd tactics of the opposition.
But this year it had such an
overwhelming majority in both
houses that tactics could not avail
and it triumphantly passed both
houses, and the Governors veto
had to be resorted to, to toll its
triumph for awhile.-New Miskis-
sippian.

Another bin to allow the people
t9votc on the question Of holding
constitutional convention viii be
introduced in the house in few
days. It will meet the principal
objections of the Governors veto,
and force him, ifhe vetoes it, to

changes it will provide that the
election be held next year instead
Of thls.-New Mississippian.
We are glad to know that their
win be another bill introduced.
but the one the New Mississippian
speaks of we don't think will be
satisfactory to the people. The
masses want constitutional con-
vention, this and nothing more,
and we would suggest to our solons
TO prepare and introduce a bill
calling said convention, and at the
Presidential election TO vote Tor
delegates and calling the conven-
ton to meet on the lst Monday

uency will say "well done &C."

in a recent interview with a rep
resentative OF the Chicago Journal,
Bishop Mcknight Of the Mormon
church has this to say about the
great temple and the manner in
which church property is held
"The temple is sstiIl in process of
construction. The great towers
are now going up and we hope to
complete it all inside of five years.
1t was commenced in 1858 and will
cost about sl0,OO0,000. Under the
Edmunds law no church in Utah
can hold property above the value
Of $50, 600. This provision is, of
course, aimed at our church, and
the motion to appoint a receiver
to take charge Of our property is
bitterly fought in the United States
courts. The best legal talent pro.
curable, headed by Broadhead of
st. Louis, for two weeks defended
the rights ofthe Mormons but the
judges decided to appoint a receiv:
er. He will find himself consider
ably hampered however, by the
fact that the bulk Of the church
property has been decided right
and left into the hands Of the apos-
ties and bishops for safe keeping.

stands and the work is going right
