Instead of recommending the calling of

The recommendations adopted wcro
that section 24 of article I, providing that,
"the right to heard lit all civil cases In
the court of last resort by appeal, error,
or otherwise, shall not bo denied," should
be amended, leaving It to the legislature,
or tho people, to limit appeals to such
court In civil cases; that section 1 of
article vl. which in effect prevents tho
creation of any appelate court between
the district and supreme courts, bo
amended so as to give to the legislature
and the people the right to provide by
enactments other and further tribunals
and courts exercising judicial power, nnd
not restricting tho state J.o the present

deem It practicable at this time to rccom

It also recommended that an amend
ment be mado to the law which requires
exceptions to bo tuken to tho rulings, or

ment recommended was that "no ex
ception shall bo required to rulings or
orders ot tho court concerning pleadings,
or upon objection made during a trial,
or to giving or refusing instructions; and
all errors may be alleged by parties and
determined by the appelate court without
any specific exceptions hclng taken In
the lower court."
It also recommended that the law re
latljig to tho matter ot servlco of bills
Tf 'exceptions-be- so amended that they
shall bo served by filing them with tho
clerk of the district court, notlep of such
filing being given to the adverse party
or his attorney In writing by registered.
