Elliot made the following remarks: Gentlemen of the Wyoming Constitutional Convention--I thank you for the honor you have conferred upon me this afternoon; and I think I can truly say that the honor is as unexpected as it is pleasant to me. I take it as a compliment to Northern Wyoming. I feel it to be a declaration that we meet here not as politicians, not as members of a party, but as the representatives of the people of the territory of Wyoming. [Applause.] And I can say that I believe that this is the only true spirit in which we can proceed; that if our constitution in any way shows a learning towards corporations of any class that the people will not ratify it when it is submitted to them. Under these circumstances it is necessary that we proceed cautiously and carefully in regard to the rights of all, to give to each and every man, whether public or private, the same exact rights and justice under our constitution. If we do that I am sure the constitution will be ratified at the polls. [Applause.] Wyoming State Library: Wyoming Newspapers: Cheyenne Daily Sun
