amined and considered the provisions
of the proposed amendment to the
constitution submitted by the Leg
islature of 1899 to the people for rat
ificatiOn, give it as my opinion that
the said amendment is not in conflict
with either the Federal Constitution
or anything in the State Constitution
in regard to amending the same.
| further give it as my opinion
that the 4th and 9Th sections OF
said amendment are so connected III

toned and dependent upon the other
that both must stand or fall together
and that it is too clear to admit of q
doubt that the 4th section cannot
stand if the 9Th section should be
declared unconstitutional.
1t is clear that this amendment. if
ratified. will not disfranchise either
now or hereafter. any person who
