Goddard Spedks
On Constitution

In commemoration of the
fiftieth anniversary of the
signing of the Montana state
constitution, Judge o. F. God
dard, one of the three surviv-
ing signers of the document,
was one guest speaker at the
regular noon meeting of the
KiWanis club here Wednesday.
Judge Goddard briefly out
Lined the history of the consti-
tutional convention, which con-
vened on July 4, 1889, was in
session until August II, 1889,
and submitted the results of its
laborS to the voters for ratifi-
cation on October l, 1889.
The convention met at Hell
ena with rs members. The dele
gates were men of prominence
in Montana affairs. The presi-
dent was w. A. Clark, famous
mining man.
There had been two previous
convention meetings, Goddard
said, one in 1866 and another
in 1884, but nothing came OF
their work and deliberations.
The speaker was a member OF
the first Montana senate in
1891-1S93, and there were l6
Montana counties at that time,
he states.
The other two signers of the
constitution who still survive are
Mr. Fields of Cleveland, Ohio,
and MIR. Durfee of Phillipsburg,
Mont.
Judge Goddard's closing re-
marks were, mo higher aim
can be mentioned at this time
than to support the constitution
of the United States and on,
own state constitution, when
we stop and consider the i'm
portance of world affairs here
and abroad"
