WILLETT, SUMMARY OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE CONSTITUTIONS OF 1901 AND 1875 AS COMPARED AND CONTRASTED SECTION BY SECTION. PREAMBLE. The preambles are substantially alike, being a slight change in verbiage and the omission from the constitution of 1901 of the phrase, "to provide for the common defense and promote the general welfare." BILL OR DECLARATION OF RIGHTS. The bills or declarations of rights in the two constitutions as a whole are substantially alike with the slight variations and changes hereinafter pointed out. That all men are equally free and independent, endowed by the Creator with certain inalienable rights, etc. This provision is identical in both constitutions. Sec. 1, p. 3. That all residents in the state, born in the United States, who have declared their intention to become citizens of the United States, declared citizens of the state, possessing equal civil and political rights. This provision is omitted from the constitution of 1901. Sec. 2, const. 1875, pp. 3 and 4. Political power inherent in the people; free government founded on their authority, instituted for their benefit with right to change form of government. Is same in both constitutions. Sec. 2, p. 5. Religion shall not be established by law, nor required as a qualification for office of public trust; no person shall be compelled to attend any place of worship, or pay tithes, taxes, etc., for maintaining the ministry. This provision is practically the same in both constitutions. Sec. 3, pp. 6 and 7. Liberty of speech and press guaranteed. This provision is practically the same in both, with the exception that the constitution of 1901 inhibits the passage of a law to curtail or restrain it, while that of 1875 simply declared it as one of the rights. Sec. 4, pp. 7 and 8. Unreasonable searches and seizures prohibited and search warrants prohibited except upon probable cause supported by oath. This provision is practically the same in both constitutions. Sec. 5, pp. 8 and 9. |
