A FEW months since the supreme
court of Ohio declared special legisla-
tlon, secured by reference to classif-
cation of cities, unconstitutional.
The opinion was so sweeping that a
crisis threatened the Multitude of
bonded cities, towns and counties of
the state. In another case just decid-
ed by the sureme court the learned
Judges practically reverse themselves
and accept the constitutionality OF
classification laws. This relieves the
situation, but-shows how loosely con-
stucted are the assembly laws and
the organic law of the state. The
present constitution was adopted in
1851 and In many particulars needs
revision to conform to advanced con-
dit;ons. The constitution itself pro
vides that the question of revision
must be submitted to the people once
in twenty years. But once since
1851 have the people decided to hold
constitutional convention in 1871
The labors of that convention were
protracted and in the main the new
work was we'll done. The convention
was presided over by the late Morri
son R. Waite and was conducted up.
on nom partisan grounds. But the
people failed to ratify the new con-
stituron, and the old document o.
1851 is the supposable guiding stal
of the state. But it is not. Legisla
lures stretch and twist and distor
and break it almost at will, ana su-
preme courts are found that readil y
sustain the attractions. In 1901 the
people will have another opportunity
to vote upon tie question of revision
