down a decision TO the effect that the
amendments to the constitution voted
for at the last election were defeated.
This is due TO the fact that while ma
jority of those who voted on the amend
ments voted for them, yet not enough
voted for them to constitute a majority
of all the votes in the state. Nearly
one half of the voters did not vote on
the amendments at all. The one
amendment provided for an increase in
the number of judges of the supreme
court to eleven. The other amendment
provided that in order to be admitted
to the bar, young men should possess
certain qualifications.
