constitutional revision which cuts
into the very roots Of our government,
should not be made at a time when we
are suffering from the violent
lions of a world upheaval, but should
be left until the period or readjustment

upon u own needs and conditions.
What our state constitution needs now
is to be backed up, not hacked up.

years Republican and Democratic leg

constructive legislation Of direct and
far-reaching benefit to the farmers of
this state than has probably the legis-
lature of any other state within the
same period.
"Certain it is that the remedy for the
ills which may beset any of people
of our industries does not lie in the
hands of those whose doctrines would
destroy those industries.
