lucas on constitutional metterB. Last
Thursday night bb appeared before
tho Stato Bar association and discuss-

Ings -evading up to the trial and soc-
tlo 20 of my propoBltlou will nbsoloto-

based on technicalities. I am in favor
of one fair trial by a Jury of over

posed to Judgments being set aside or
now trials being granted on account
of technical errors unless it shall ap-
pear that the error coqiinlned of has
rcamltert In a mlscarrftigo of justice.
Section 20. above i (farted to roads
as follows:
"No Judgment Bhnll ho sot aside or
now trial granted In any caso civil
or criminal on the gtonnd of misdi-
rection of the jury or tho Improper
admission or rojeotlon of ovldeuco or
for error as to any mattor or pro-
weduro unless In the opinion of tha
court to which application is made
after an examination of the entire
cause. It shall affirmatively appeitr
that the orror has resulted in a mis-
carriage of Justice"
Hvery once in a while on the floor
of the contention you hear the ob-
jection "It infrlngos on the rights ot
the legislature." offered against prop-
ositions. In this convention the peo-
pjo through their representatives
i aro acting In their unlimited soverolgn
oapaoity and every aot performed by
the representatives must be reierreu
to the people and raUfled by them
before it becomes a Igw. 1 believe
this convention should take up all
questions that demand settlement at
this time such as the regulation of
railroads and public service corpora-
tions private corporations trusts
monopolies and combinations in re-
straint of commerce and trade etc.
and sottle them according to the very
best light we have at this Ume. If the
people ratify the work of tho conven-
tion there Is no reason the will of the
people should not prevail Then the
constitution should be easily amended
by a majority vote of the people on
a petition signed by bout 6 peer cent
of the qualified electors of the state
in the same manner laws are initialed
and repealed imdor the initiative and
referendum If the neqjple make a
mistake or find that cfcrtaln provi-
sions of their constitution by reason
of the constitution nlaeetftipon them
