EUREKA, New, Oct. 26, 1894.
EDITOR SENTINEL: II is proposed to
make several amendments TO the consti.
tuition Of this State. These are TO be
voted on on the 9Th proximo, and u
seems TO me that voters should be made
aware Of the important matters they are
called on 70 decide by their vote. A
verylares majority Of the voters. I an
surs,s have never read the constitution.
and u js . pity that . copy thereof wa
NOS s~sppsnded to the printed proposed
smspdmenss, or 1t least . copy Of the
articles and sections il is proposed to
amend. Ia ths absence Of such informa-.
tion. how can voters who are not fsmil-
lar With tbs constitution Of the State
vote ipssIligsntly on said proposed
amendments!
wosld not you. or some q qualified
TO do IL. kindly enlighten voters right
away. 80 that they may be prepared how
to votef A SUBSCRIBER.
The SENTINEL would like TO comply
with tho wish Of its correspondent. but
II would take up too much space TO make
the necessary comments 10 each Of the
proposed constitutional amendments.
Some time ago che Secretary Of State
forwarded to the several County Clerks
Of the State . number Of copies Of the
smsndpents printed in foil in pamphlet
form for distribution among the voters.
This was done. We believe. Our County
Clerk. NO doubt. has . supply Of the
pamphlets on hand that can be had on
application. II copies Of them cannot
be had before election for voters to read
and use their 1--WE judgment in voting
on them. We would advise them TO vote
mo" on each Of the amendments.

an Anarchist tragedy growing out Of the
efforts Of the police to discover the ac-

Of President SadiCarnot.
Cette and Montpelier both in the
same Department, have been mentioned
as places Where the murderer stopped
previous to making his way to Lyons.
Consequently both these towns have
been secured by detectives since Monday
morning.
The officers who have been at work in
Montpelier decided last night to sur
round and search the house uf q man
named Granier, supposed to be an An
archlst and a possible accomplish Of
