NO CONVENTION.

The decision of the Supreme
Court in the matter Of counting
the votes cast on the question OF
having new Constitutional Con-
vention is likely to raise q good
deal Of bitter discussion in this
State.
The Supreme Court holdss tina
It declines to count the ballots
cast on the grounds that the law
only provides that they shall can
vass the votes cast for Member of
Congress and State Officers.
The Canvasslng Board also
claim that the ballots relative to
the Convention did not read alike;
some were, ..For a New Constitu-
tuition" "For Constitutional
Convention" and "For Revision
Of the Constitution"
Now, il the Court was correct
In its frs. fiadirgs there was no
necessity of looking for other rea-
sons. The Court was in the posi-
ton OF the sea captain. who had
sixty-three reasons for not firing a
salute, and the first was that he
had no gun powder.
II the Court has no right to
canvass the returns on the Con-
stitutional Convention there is no
necessity OF bothering with any
other reasons, but il the Supreme
Court, acting as a Canvassing
Board, had the right to deal with
the proposition, 1t Is quite prob
able that the mixed condition of
the returns and the. variations in
the ballots would have been suf-
ficient to have cut down the vote
specifically in favor Of the meas
ure to q sad minority.
There is no question, however,
that majority Of all the voters
Of this State voted on the ques-
ton under the impression that
they were voting for .Constitu-
tional Convention, and the APPEAL
is Of the opinion that the bill
has been defeated by political
trickery. The variations in the
ballots look more like design than
accident.
The Legislature has right to
provide for a Constitutional Con-
vention and the people have asked
for it.

not strange that even it's thiev es

and began tending bar. It was
not long before the night watch
man came in for drink. To his
horror he was obliged to pay for
the same and when he went out
and g the policeman on the beat
that fonctionary was also shocked
ut finding that coin was demanded
In return for liquid refreshment.
Next morning the owner OF the
saloon was amazed to find that he
had been robbed and still more
amazed when be was arrested for
keeping open after the legal hour.
Such a plan could not be executed
In Nevada; here the saloons never
close.
