complete the work in hand--if pay

The delegates must settle the ques-
ton OF the liability OF officers and

OF a fund by the banks. or some other
plan, as q protection TO deposltors;
decide on what a legislator Is worth.
as regards remuneration; squarely

whether they may vote; again try out
the issue OF uniformity In public &C

corporations granted by municipal

contract system for convicts; decide
on creating "A state public utilities
commission; on establishing new
board OF equalization OF assessments
with power to nullify the acts of all
other assessing officers without furth-
er appeal. or on letting thei present
law stand; on changing the section
relative to circuit judges. SO an addi-
tional Judge may be elected in any

Besides all these momentous ques-
lions. the fellow-servant and contribu-

be sprung at any moment, and there
are still AZ proposals pending, In ad-

II is said that not until all the pro-
posals have been put through second
reading, or killed, should the conven-
ton take recess, SO the committees
can prepare for the third and final
reading.

GEO. e. GUN TO PERSIST IN PUSH.
ING THE FELLoW-sERvANT
| PROPOSAL.
(From a Special corrsspondent)


LANSING, Mich. Jan. 27-Defeat Of
the initiative for constitutional amend
ments destroys nearly every hope OF
securing any further reform measures
from the present convention, as its
burial clearly demonstrates that cor
porate interests elected q majority Of
the delegates. Nevertheless. George
E. Gun. OF the Brotherhood of Train
men, says that he will persist In the
fight for the fellow-servant proposal
to the end Of the session. As. under
the rules, a majority vote can do any
thing on third reading. this question
could be brought up then, even II not
touched until the second reading order
had been finally completed. which
means that there Is chance for the
trainmen to secure another hearing
before the full neutrality-suspicious.
they can get 40 delegates. This would
open the way any time. until the final
completion OF every section Of the
new constitution on third reading.
Therefore, Ii may be inferred. there is
hope till the convention actually ad.
journs sine die.
The Cranor proposal on this subject
Is still hung up In the standing com
mittee, but the week Just past was too
strenuous for any attempt to be made
to force II out. This may be tried
within the next few days, unless the
committee yields to reason and sends

vention

DANGER ARISING FROM GENERAL
DISGUST OVER DEFEAT or
INITIATIVE.

LANSING, Mich, Jan. 27.-(Spe-
c:al.) -Since the defeat of the initia.
tive proposal, number OF convention
delegates, even some who voted
against II, have expressed grave
doubts of the wisdom OF throttling Il.
as there is now danger OF the people
refusing to ratify the entire work of
the convention, because the delegates
refused to give them this measure.
The fair conclusion to draw from
this Is that the 40 delegates who
ignored the peoples wishes, feared the
corporations more than they did their
constituency. This forces a vital ques-
tion to the front-namely, that OF the
voters responsibility. The electorate
sends these corporation lawyers to
their lhw-making bodies, permitting
