CONSTITtinON OP NEVADA. " COHBTITUTIONiOF KEVADA. ' The following is a complete and correct abstract of the Constitution of the State of Nevada, adopted on the aevenfh day of Sep tember. It is greatly condensed, occupying but a fraction of the room required for the publication of the whole document, but will be found equally useful and far more con venient for reference : Preceding the Constitution proper is a resolu tion adopting the Constitution of the United States and an ordinance forever prohibiting sla very, securing perfect religious toleration, dis claiming forever all right and title to unappropri ated public lands, which are left to the sole dis position of the United States ; exempting from taxation all lands and other property of the Uni ted State*, and declaring that land* of. non-resi dents shall not be taxed higher than lands of citi zens of the proposed State. TheBe enactments are mado in compliance with the terms of the Ena | bling Act, and are declared irrevocable without the consent of the United States and of the people of the State of Nevada. [ The preamble to the Constitution is the same as that of the old Constitution. It reads thus: " We, the people of the State of Nevada, grate ful to Almighty God for our freedom, in order to secure its blessings, insure domestic tranquility uud form a more perfect Government, do estab j listi thin Constitution." AttttCLK I? PECLAKATIUW Uf munis. Section 1 declare* all nien by uuuu^ me and ii/iuiil possessing certain inalienable rights, etc., rtefangttage of the section being merely imam-. nUficatlon of the Declaration of Independence. . Section 3 usserts that the doctrine of the Inhe rent political power of the people, and their right toestabiish or change their form of Government, and coutlnnes: "But the paramount alleguuice of every citizen is due to the iederal Govern ment?^ the exercise of all it. constitution^ pow ers as the saint' have been or may be defined by the Supreme Court of the United State" ; and no nower exists in the people of till J or irny other Sato of the Federal Union to dissolve their con nection therewith, or perform uny act tending to Impair, subvert or resist the supreme authority of tho Government of the United States, rhe Constitution of the United States content fnll nower on tho Federal Government to maintain and perpetuate its existence, and whensoever any portion of tho Stales, or people thereof, attempt o secede from the Federal Union, or forcibly re sist the execution of its laws the Federal Gov erouient may, by warrant of the CousUttition, employ armed force in compelling obedience to ''sccUon 'l' establishes tho right of -trial by jury, but provides that three-fourths of a Jury in any civil case may find a verdict unless the Legisiu turo by a two-thirds vote shall require Mich ver dict* to be unanimous. taction 4 requires perfect religious toleration und freedom of conscience. No person to be ex cluded its a witness on account of religious opiu ''"section 5 secures the writ of habeas yorpus, except in cases of rebellion or iuvasiou. Section ti prohibits excessive bail, cruel or un usual punishment#, ctc Section 7 requires that all persons accused shall be bailable, except for capital offenses. Section S prohibits trials for crime, except on presentment or Indictment, and establishes the usual safeguards as to personal and property right s Section 9 secures the freedom of speech and ot the press, and allows the truth to Jio given in ev idence, in actions for libel, by way of justification. Section 1U establishes the right of the people to hold public meetings, etc. . Section 1 1 subordinates the military to the ci\ il power, prohibits a standingarmy In tune of peace, anil limits army appropriations iu time of ? ar to far 11 ^p^nU^ton ffil U? ".SectilluH'reqS's" he exemption ofareaMnable amount of property from execution tor debt, and forbids Imprisonment for debt. " except in case of fraud, libel or slander." , Section 15 forbids the passage of any bill ot at tainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of contracts. Section lti secures to foreigners, on becoming bonu tide residents, the same property rights as native-born citizens. Section 1" prohibits slavery. Section If protects the people against unreas onable searches anil seizures, and restricts the is suing of search warrants. Section 19 defines treason against the State (as in the United States Constitution), anil requires for conviction " the testimony of t ro ? to the same overt act. or confession in open Court. Section 20 reserves to the people any and all riithts not enumerated. , , The most considerable change from the ol I Constitution iu this Article is in the ' " paramount allegiance" clause of Section i, which in the old Constitution read thus : " But the Paramount ^ leiriance of every cltiren is due to the federal Government ? and no power exists in the people " th ?o? any orter State In the Federal Union to dissolve their connection therewith, or perform any act tending to impair, subvert or resis he supreme authority "f the Governmen of he United States. The Constitution of the United States confers full power on the Federal G?neni meat to maintain and perpetuate lis existence, und whensoever any port it. a of the States, , or peo ple thereof, attempt to secede from the i ederal Union, or forcibly resist the execution of its laws, 1he Federal Government may, by warrant of the Constitution, employ armed force in eouipeiling obedience to its authority." Section 11 of the old Constitution, prohibiting the Legislature from granting special privileges, etc., was stricken out, as being sufficiently provi ded for in the article on Legislative Department. The words "libel or slander" were inserted in Section 14, relative to -Imprisonment for debt, ou accotlut of the adoption of stringent pro - siousfortbe prevention and pmiisliment ofduelllng The provision iu Section 19, relative to con victions of treason, was not contained ui the old Constitution. article u? right ok sukfraok. Section 1 confers the right of suffrage ou every white male citizen of the United. States, twenty one years of age and upwards, who shall ba\ e actually and not constructively resided in the State six mohths, and in the district or count> thirty davs next preceding any election ? pro vides that no person convicted oftreason or feloiij in anv State or Territory of tho United States, unless restored to civil rights, and no person who, alter arriving at tho age of eighteen years, shall have voluntarily borne arms against the United States or held civil or military office under the so-called Confederate States, or either pf them, unless an amnesty be granted to such by the Federal Government, and no idiot or insane per tton, shall be entitled to the privilege of an elector. Section 2 provides thnt no person shall be deemed to have gained or lost residence for the purpose of votiug while in the service of the United States, while a student iu any seminary ot iearniug, nor wliilo Kept in any almshouse, usy lum or prison at the public expense-. Section 3*seCures the right of suffrage to Lnited States soldiers and sailors. No poll tax or regis tration is required of such voters. Section 4 prohibits arrests ou civil process on election days. ^ ^ ^ n U m ovcuunupruvnict iutu oil vnxiivim uy wo jiw pie Mhall be by ballot, and by tbe Legislature viva voce. Section 6 requires the enactment of a registry law, and authorises the Legislature to prescribe rules or oaths as tests of electoral qualification. Section 7 requires tho levying of an annual poll tax of from two to four dollars, on all male resi dents between the ages of twenty-one and sixty years of age, uncivilized American Indians ex cepted, one-half to go for State and one-half for county purposes. The payment of such tax may, in the discretion of the Legislature, be made a condition to the right of voting. Section b relates to the qualifications of voters on the adoption or rejection of this Constitution. In Section 1 tbe words " actually and not con structively" were uot iu the old Constitution.? They M ere iuserted to prevent the possibility of reckoning tho residence or the voter from tbe time he leaves some other State or county to come to Nevada. In the lost paragraph of the section, after "Idiot or insane," the words "or disloyul person" occurred iu tbe old Cen'tltution.
