 A report comes from Prescott that the vets are preparing petition to the legislature praying that the opera tion of the prohibition measure be held up until 1916, to allow all in the busi- ness time to get out without loss. This is reasonable, but it is thought that the law will be held up by the courts, on account of the varience of the enacting clause of the measure with the con- stitution of the State. The constitution says that an amendment to the con stitution shall become law on the proc lamation of the governor and not other wise, while the amendment says that "This amendment shall take effect on, and be in force on and after the first day of January, 19l5." The amend ment cannot change the constitution that makes possible the amendment. But on the other hand such an attempt to have this amendment become ef- fective at later date than contem- plated by the governors proclamation, must be incorporated in the body of the amendment itself, and not otherwise. This is indicated in Article ", sec. 5, of the Constitution of the State of Ari- zona.
