THE DAY OF ALL DAYS
 IN THE CONVENTION
(Continued From Page One.)

should not be confined in the same section of jails and prisons with adult offenders but that suitable quarters should be provided for them in such jails and prisons The committee now entered upon a period of oratory that occupied all the rest of the morning session. It was explained on-the part of the judiciary committee which had rec commended the indefinite postpone ment of the proposition that it was purely legislative matter and that the thing desired by it was already af forded by statute
 MT. Ingraham and Mir Crutchfield in long discourses presented req sons, which for a generation have been universally accepted, why chil- dren should not be mixed with adult offenders. Every member of the convention was as familiar with those reasons as the speakers them selves and so is every jailor in every civilized country. But no reason was offered why the proposition should be in the Arizona constitution.
 Both MT. Cunningham, the chair man of the judiciary committee and MT. EllinwoOd of the committee full ly endorsed the principle of the sep aration of children from mature pris oners but they insisted that it was foolish to cucumber the constitution with this matter. There was no jail where children were so confined. At least said MT Cunningham, it was not the practice to so confine them in any of the jails in which he and he hastened to add that he had never been incarcerated in any jail.
 Mir. Franklin said that the proposi- tion was worse than foolish as 1t then stood. In his opinion it would prevent the commitment of children to the reform school. For that req son he had joined in the recommen- dation for it's indefinite postpone ment.
 Mir. Crutchfield took MT. Franklin to task for not having amended the proposition to meet this objection. MT. Franklin in reply said that so able a gentleman as MT Crutchfield should have had a perfect bill ready. He said that with the aid of so ex- 6cillclHdli MI Crutchfield he believed that he him self could prepare a passable propo- sition.
 The proposition was amended so as to avoid the destruction of the re- form school by striking out that ar rangement for confining them in sections of jails and prisons apart from adult prisoners. This was now the amended minority report and the motion that it be submitted for the majority report was carried by a vote of 34 to F.
 Another measure relating to the judiciary was thrown overheard and on the motion of Mir Winsor the committee rose in order that the standing committees might have some time for the transaction of business.
 A Short Afternoon.
 Tn a very brief afternoon session, the committee on public debt. reve- mo and taxation reported a substi- tute for proposition 1O6, which pro- vided a general scheme of taxation. A half dozen other measures con- taining fragmentary projects were recommended for indefinite post pOnement but it was finally agreed that all of them should be taken up with the substitute in the committee of the whole.
 The committee on education also reported a group of measures for in definite postponement but on sort ing them out it was found that one of them related to the improvement of sanitary conditions in towns and cities. That was sent back to an other committee.
 This practically cleaned up all the business on the secretary's desk and an early adjournment was taken un- til 9:30 this morning. There was a general calling together of the stand ing committees to get out more partly manufactured material for the convention.
