The governor is well alvised of this fact and he is not only advised of this provision of the constitution, but lie is also advised of other provisions of the constitution applying to the question of making amendments thereto. It occurs to me that Mr. Clark “ought to know'" that an amendment to the constitution can only be submitterd at the regular ses- sion of the legislature. Whether he knows this or not, the constitution 80 provides. With the constitution providing that foreigners shall have the same right to own property as citizens of the State and also providing that a constitutional amendment must be submitted at a regular session of the Legislature, it would be ridiculous and absurd for me to convent the Legislature in special session to do a thing which it could not do legally under the constitution of the State.
