 The people of Arizona are called to frame a government of restricted powers. Their constitution is to be one restricting and limiting the powers of their legislature, execu. tive and judiciary. It must be republican in form, must conform to the Constitution of the United States and must meet the approval of the President and Congress. Surely that should not be a diff. cult task. But more than all it should fit conditions in Arizona. There's the rnh.

OGALES, ARIZONA, U. s. A.


 this connection THE OASIS has ob served that some of the ''safe and sane" advocates have ideas about constitutions that are somewhat hay. Several of the Arizona newspapers have declared "the constitution of the United States Is good enough for them," and have expressed hope that the conven' tion will adopt constitution like the fundamental law of the repub- lie. One day this week one of our most respected citizens made the same assertion to THE OASIS editor. Those with such views have missed entirely the wide difference between the scope and intention of the con- stitution of the United States and the scope and intention of a state constitution. The latter is an in- strument by which the people re- strict the powers of their state government. By that instrument they repose in that government all the powers they possess themselves. with the restrictions and excep tions embodied therein. In con. struing any power sought to be exercised by state government the question alway Is: ID Ies the constitution prohibit or restrict the exercise of this power?" Ii 1t does not restrict or prohibit, the power my be exercised. Upon the o' her hind the Constitution of the Unit ed States is an instrument of dele gated powers. The people of the United States delegated to the fed eral government certain powers, reserving 10 the states or the people all the powers not included in that instrument. In construction of a

DELEGATED POWERS AND RESTRICTED
 POWERS.

While beneath free in stitutiOns people live under and are governed by the provisions of written consti- tution.. yet the general run of men know very little about such instru- ments and give them very little heed or attention. It is only when they are brought face to face with the question of the adoption of constitution as have been the people of Arizona today, that they give such instruments much atten- ton. Sometimes state will go fifty or sixty years and even longer under the same fundamental law, with very few amendments. About forty years ago, in the 'I0's, anum- Der of the states, including Penn sylvania, Illinois, Minnesota and California, called conventions which framed new constitutions that were adopted by the people and have continued in operation ever since. Most of them have been subjected to slight amend ment: California has amended in many particulars the constitution adopted in 1877, which instrument supplanted the fundamental law adopted at the time of admission in 1850. The people of Wisconsin are living yet under the constitu' ton their grandiathers adopted at the time of admission in 1848, to which from time to time there have been added a few amendments.
 The cases cited in-the preceding paragraph go to show that in the ordinary course of human events the average citizen has little occasion to give attention to constitutional questions of any kind; and in the great work of framing and adoption of con- stitution men can live long lives and pass from the field of endeavoT without having ever enjoyed such an experience. Yet men have found it necessary to frame and
The oasis., 1910-07-09

adopt fundamental laws for their various states. It is upon the re- strictions thrown around govern ments (and around power of any kind) in such instruments that free institutions are based. Many of the simplest provisions in exist ling constitutions, which are taken by the people living under them as matters of course, were wrested from those who held arbitrary power only by the force of arms Others were the result of protracted struggles in the forum and at the hustings. And there is hardly provision embodied in constitution al law as it stands today that was not opposed by the advocates of "safe and sane" constitutions of their time. Even the constitution of the United States, which beca me afterward a..fetich for worship, was opposed bitterly by many, while some of its most consistent advo cates supported it's adoption with grave doubts and fears as a choice between evils, and they took the less.
 When the people of sovereign state sit themselves down soberly to frame and adopt a constitution they embark upon one of the most educational processes that could be devised. They pass in review the constitutions that have been ad- opted by the people of other states, and cull therefrom provisions that are suited best to their own conditions. And if they are of high and exalted intelligence, un- trammeled and free. they evolve original provisions to suit their own conditions.
 During he anti slavery agitation of ante bellum days, new states seeking admission had their con stitutions submitted to severe an alysis and scrutiny by Congress, and in one case (Nehraska) the constitution the people had ad- opted was returned for acceptance of an amendment framed and pro- posed in the United States senate.
 In Congress-the senate particu. larly-there was battle royal over the admission of California with g. fundamental law prohibiting slavery. IntellectuaI giants strug- gled in the forum of dehate ovei that issue. In the enabling act fol Arizona Congress has returned to
 the ante-bellum practice of review. ing the proposed constitutions fol Lew states. And there has been g deal of twaddle about that. Also there has been emitted a lot of stuff about "a safe and sane constitu- tion." Those who shout mos violently against Congress for re taining the power of review would f go farthest to frame a "safe anC

KANSAS CITY STOCK
MARKET.
0 o o 900 100000 90 Q

Kansas City Stock Yards, Oct. "a
Receipts of quarantine cattle here last
week were 147 car loads, lightest since
the summer run commenced. The run
included some corn fed steers of good
quality, the first this fall, and they sold
at $3.50 for tops, others down to $6.25.
The heavy steers declined 10 to Is
cents during the week. Grass steers
sold strong, and closed 10 higher, cows
and heifers Is to 25 higher for the
week, heavy calves lower, light veals
quarter higher. The run today is so
cars of quarantines here, market
steady on steers, strong to 10 higher
on cows and heifers. Some more corn
fed steers from vicinity of Welch are
here today, 1880 lbs, at $3.50. Grass
steers range from $4.00 to $500 today,
grass cows and heifers $3.50 to $410.
A string of the Atkins heifers from
Hominy at the latter figure, COWS in
the shipment at $500 Run of pasture
cattle from Kansas will be about end
ed this week, and although the range
country will ship freely few weeks
more, total receipts will decrease each
week from now on. Top fed steers
sold at $3.50 today in the native divi-
sion. A feature in the cattle market
today is the shipment of four cars of
pure bred bulls and cows today to
Honolulu, which have been assembled
here in the last two weeks.
Hogs advanced rapidly the first half
of last week, but the market went
down just as fast the last half, and the
finish was no better than close of
previous week. There was a better
feeling Saturday, which has ripened
into a positive advance today, on the
meagre supply of $500 head. Re
ceipts increased perceptibly last week
under the influence of the advance,
but from the size of the supply today
it looks like more bait will have to
be laid out this week to draw in any
considerable run. Packers suddenly
remembered today that they needed

Sheep and lambs are still coming
freely, and the market changes very
little. Run is $4,000 today, market
strong to 10 higher, top lambs $3.50,
wethers $40O to $3.50, ewes $3.50 to
.$425, to killers. Packers only take
the tops, and are not getting enough
to be burdensome, and country buy
ers clean up the balance readily, at
steady prices, lambs at $5.75 to $500,
wethers around S4.00, breeding ewes
$3.50 to $3.50.
