There shall be no imprisonment for debt except in cases of fraud.
Private Property.--Private property shall not be taken for public use
except a necessity therefore exists, and then only after just
compensation has been paid.
Religion.--The free exercise and enjoyment of religious faith and
worship shall forever be guaranteed.
No religious test shall be required for holding public office.
Freedom of Speech and of the Press.--Every person may freely speak,
write, and publish on any subject, but he is held responsible for the
abuse of that liberty,
Freedom of Meeting.--The people shall have the right to assemble
and consult for their common good, and may petition the Legislature for
redress of grievances.
Security Against Military Tyranny.--Soldiers shall not be quartered
in private houses in times of peace without the consent of the owner,
nor in times of war except as the law may provide.
It will be seen from the above that the State government as well as the
National is planned on the accepted fact that all power originates with
the people.
