THE NEW CONSTITUTION.
The newly elected delegated to tho
Constitutional Convention have a. gol
den opportunity given to , few men
for performing real service In behalf
of tho people.
Ah everyone known, tho constitu
tion, which Is now in forco In Illi
nois, Is obsolete unci now lows nntl
statutes are needed to keep In touch
with the present age we aro living
In.
What the peoplo want aro good,
snno laws, but not too many, as Is
tho trouble today.
Peoples' rights should bo respected
and the delegates have an opportu
nity of giving tho state dedent tax
laws, good Jury laws, clean election
laws, and nlso giving to tho differ
ent municipalities In tho state what
thoy deservo and demand home-rulo

CARELESS AUTOMOBILE DRIVING
Tho careless driving of automobiles
In Chicago bus got to bo a menaco.
Concerned for tho public welfuro
over tho largo number of deaths from
careless automobllo driving, tho Oc
tober grand Jury, In Its final report,
urged legislation to control those
who own and drive cars.
"Wo aro lmprossed," tho report
states, "with the largo number of
cases coming before tho grand Jury
In which automobiles figure eithor
ns an Instrument of death or as
stolen property, and wo recommend:
"First That u law bo enacted re
quiring every porson who drives a
power propelled car of any kind to
hold a llcenso to so drlvo and that li
censes be Issued only nftor tho ap
plicant has successfully passed a
rigid examination as to his or hor
tltness to possess such llcenso and
providing for sovero punishment for
nny ono who nttetnpts to drlvo n car
without a llconso.
"Second That tho limit of punish
ment bo ndmlnlstored In overy case
whon tho theft of an automobllo Is
proven, whether tho car Is recovered
or not, as It is only by making it n
dangerous thing to do that this
growing crime will bo lessened or
htopped.
"Wo furthor recommend that spe
cial legislation bo enacted making
the punishment for stealing automo
biles much moro severe."
