CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.

On the matter of Constitutional |
amendment, the Legislature of 1890 |
expressed itself in favor of several |
changes. Of these, some are radi-
cal and few of small Importance.
The duty of the Legislature pro-
posing amendments is to put them
in form merely for submission to
the people who elect a new set of
representatives, presumably with
reference to final action on the
proposed amendments. Conse-
quently, it is not to be assumed
that a vote for an amendment
in one session indicates the
final decision of the member on the
question involved. On the con-
trary, as no other way of amending
the Constitution exists, a member
OF the Legislature who opposes the
principle may in the first instance
vote for the amendment in order to
get it before the people. That
there may be public discussion
upon proposed amendments, the
Constitution provides that they
shall be published for three months
previous to the next election of
Representatives and Mobiles. It is
not prescribed who shall make
such publication, but in past years,
certainly on most occasions, the
clerk of the Legislature has at
tended to it. Who shall do it is q
very grave question just now, for it
looks as if somebody is in default,
and 1T looks. as though every
amendment proposed in 1890 must
fail for want of publication. 1t has
been frequently decided that publ
cation for any specified time means
repeated publication at stated in
tervals during the whole of the
time, so that the one publication
hitherto made of the proposed
amendment hardly complies with
the law. Precedents in this matter
show repeated publications dur
ing the whole three months.
As the daily paper is a recent
innovation, the custom, supported
in some cases by law and in gen.
eral by the ruling of our courts,
seems to be that publication once
a week during the whole of the
prescribed time is necessary in
order to fulfil the legal require
ment. Certainly such has been
the publication made in past years
under an exactly similar constitu-
tional provision. If the view here
taken is correct, it will be unfor-
tunate, for part of the proposed
amendments were of nature re-
quiring early decision. Such for
instance as that known as the
''class legislation amendment"
But there is another question
which arises regarding these pro-
posed amendments. Why were
they "bunched," so to speak? They

pins. The next ball sent down all but
one, and the game was lost by sixteen
pins. The game was the first of the

frame, when the Oritanis put on a squirt

the sixth the Tennys moved up and were
only II to the bad. The seventh frame
