Answer:

Unlike the Texas Constitution of 1866, the Texas Constitution of 1869 attempted to impose controls on the labor system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Under the Constitution of 1866 judges of the Supreme Court were elected and held their office for ten years. The Constitution of 1869 also attempted to impose controls on the labor system. As to slavery, the new constitution declared that except as punishment for crime the institution would no longer exist.
