eoR A CONSTITUTIONAL coNveN.
T1ON

The Chicago Eagle calls on oil good
citizens to fight for new State Con.
stitution. The Citizens Association
voices our sentiments when It says:
1T is universally admitted that the
present Constitution Of Illinois, adopt.
ed forty.three years ago has long
been "utgrown; and that the slow and
difficult process required to amend Il
has for many years seriously retarded
the progress OF the people Of the State
by depriving them Of the power to
properly meet new governmental
needs arising from the changed condi.
tons. The accumulated evils arising
from this situation have now become
30 numerous and acute that adequate
relief can be obtained only by revising
the Constitution In such way that It
will cease to be o hindrance to good
government. Such necessary reforms
a. the abolition Of the system Of mi.
nority representation In the Legisla-
ture; revision Of the texation system;
consolidation Of local governing and
taxing bodies; and reduction In the
number of elective oficers can only be
secured without intolerable delay by
modernizing the State Constitution.
Adequate powers Of home rule for
Chicago can also best be secured by
this Statewide method.
For forty years proposed amend.
ments have killed each other of. One.
third Of the membership Of either
house has been able effectually TO
block any desired change In the Con.
stitution. The irksome restrictions
imposed by the present Constitution
bear down upon Chicago with almost
crushing force. Because Of them Chi.
cago Is compelled to maintain, at q
vast unnecessary expense. three sep.
arate and distinct governmental
bodies covering practically the same
territory; viz: the City, County and
Sanitary District. In our opinion the
time 10 ripe now for holding . Con-
stitutionai Convention In illinois %
the best means Of affordlne adequate
relief to the people Of the City and
state. Al the next session Of the Leg.
islature we will do everything In our
power to bring about the calling Of
such . Convention, which this Asso'
citation has favored for many ysars"

TEMPERANCE LETTER
COMMISSIONERS OF INDIAN AT
FAIRS ADDRESSES LETTER
TO INDIAN SERVICE
EMPLOYEES

Washington. March 2S.-Cato Sells,
commissioner of Indian affairs has
addressed a letter to 5000 employees
of the Indian service, as follows:
Il believe that the greatest present
menace TO the American Indian is
whiskey. 1t does more to destroy his
constitution and invite the Iavages of
disease than anything else. 1t does
more to demoralIze him as a man and
frequently as a woman 1t does more
to make him an easy prey to the IN
scrupulous than everything else com
lined. If / say nothing more to you
tonight that leaves an impression, let
it be this one thought. Let us a v
the American Indian from the curse of
whiskey.
"We have a force of men engaged in
the suppression of the liquor traffic.
That is their special business. But
it is my business. and it ia your bust
ness, to do everything W. a with.
out injecting ourselves Extensively in
to the work OF others OF assuming a
duty that is not properly ours. to
create an atmosphere. and suggest
conditions that will be helpful in
this respect, and above all to be a
personal object-lesson inviting the In
dian 10 Danish liquor. rather than to
be guilty of anything that may cause
him to look upon one of Us as a jus
LITIGATION for doing that which leads
him to the destruction caused by the
use of whiskey.
There is nothing that could induce
ne, since | have taken the oath of
Office as commissioner of Indian af-
fairs, to touch a single drop of any
sort of Intoxicating liquor, and this
regardless of my attitude on the pro
hibition question.
"As a matter of good faith to our
treaty relationships. TO Legislative en-
actments. to the congress which ap-
piopriates 800, 900 Il year for the sup
preston OF the liquor traffic among the
Indians, we should do everything
reasonably within our power to justi-
fly this appropriation and insure the
best results obtainable. This accom-
plished, we have laid a substantial
foundation for all Of our work in solv-
ing the Indian problem. and made a
long step forward looking toward
their equipment for the responsible
ties of citizenship.
lit is my great desire that every
employe in the Indian service shall
realize the tremendous Importance of
the liquor suppression work. and exert
his best efforts and influence for the
protection of the indians from this,
his worst enemy.
Il desire this letter to be regarded
as a personal communication to every
employee in the Indian service, and
that it be seriously treated as such.
and | especially request that on the
sixth day of April, nineteen fourteen,
the same be read to the student body
OF every Indian school, including
those under government. mission or
private supervision.
