the attempt to misreprosent its mean

much pleased to have SO provided
the United states constitution which
reads as follows:
THE senate Of the United States
shall be composed of two senators
from each state, chosen by the Ieeis-
lature thereof
Second-A secret ballot. direct pri-
maries and a corrupt practices act.
The Constitution Article Z, section
1.-THE legislature shall enact such
laws as will secure the secrecy of the
ballot, the purity Of elections and
guard against the abuse of the elective
franchise"
The constitution of no state of the
union goes farther than this. Each of
those provisions requires a whole code
Of regulative and penal provisions TO
make them effective. Not even Fer
gusson proposed to put them in the
constitution. They conceededly have
no place there. and would have
doubled the size Of the document.
Third-The Initiative. A major
ity of the convention were elected as
opposed to any initiative. Mr.. Fergus
son and a small minority OF the dem
ocrats who followed him would con-
worse. They filled newspaper col
umn with abuse of any measure pro-
posed except their own. Their course
made any initiative hopeless from the
beginning. and such was their appar-
ent purpose.
Fourth-The Recall. No one, not
even FERGUSON. SO much as suggested
or proposed the recall, either in con-
vention, committee or elsewhere.

yidunls and corporations. Sections 2
and 8 were written in against the OPP
position Of the so-called Interests, SO
as to be sure our legislature would
have the same power. II is one of the
best clauses in the constitution to pro-
tect the small taxpayer.

Constitution Itself the Best
Reply to Those Who SANDER 1t
By Delegate Francis E. Wood

ond Legislature and the legislatures
elected each eight years thereafter
can propose amendments and the peo-
pie can ratify them at the first election
thereafter. At all other times two
thirds of any legislature can propose
amendments.
Only three states in the union have
constitutions more easily amended
and two OF these are commonly said
to have no constitution at all.
Mr.. FERGUSON:
Some of the most inveterate
bosses wanted it that way Gall Off
GERS to be electlve), knowing their
power.
Comment:
A fair sample of how easy It was
for the convention to please Mr.. Fer
gusson. He was supposed to favor
elective everything.
Mr.. Fergusson:
The school land joker. Any
school lands may be sold If located
contiguous to other lands.
The Constitution:
Article q, section Q adopts all con-
ditions of the enabling act, and makes
them part of the constitution.
Section 10 of enabling act which
gives the lands prescribes:
Lands east of line between ranges
is ana IS shall not be sole for less
than So per acre and lands west of
said line shall not be sold for less than
SO per acre and land ~irrigable under
any project for reclamation OF lands
shall not be sold for less than $25 per
acre The section further requires
that such lands shall not be sold ex-
cept at public auction TO the highest
bidder, after due advertisement.
As better lands than any we viii
get and IN private hands, are now GO
ing begging at SO per acre, u chief
trouble Will be to get congress to re-
move some of these restrictions so that
we can sell enough school land to
create q badly needed fund for the
support of our schools.
