Growing Sentiment for Con-
ptitutional Convention.


There now seems to be no doubt
that . well organized movement Is
under way for a constitutional con-
veation In Mississippi. There Is evil
dence to show that unusually strong
influences are at work on a plan to
marshal all the advocates OF consti-
tutional changes and to unite them
in one concentrated and well directed
effort to control the sentiment of the
state and necessarily the legislature
TIE necessity of a reapportionmenr
-,eknpuuty representation has already
1t a majority of the southern
cbunties into line. and 1t is known
that the prohibitonists will not con-
sieer their victory complete and se-
cube until prohibition clause can
be inserted in the constitution. The
late Bishop Galloway is quoted as ia
voring constitutional prohibition as
the only thing worth fighting for, SO
far as the states are concerned, and
that it would be short step from
state constitutional prohibition to ma
tional constitutional prohibition. An
other strong influence to be brought
into line Is the elective judiciary con
tingent. Governor Noel, when mem
Der OF the legislature. made stronl
nght for an elective judiciary. ant
succeeded in getting an amendmen
adopted and voted on. but the su
preme court held that the amend
ment did not receive the necessar.
constitutional vote. He also made 9th
er efforts in the same direction. ant
is understood to favor constitution
al convention for this purpose.
