Limitations: Although inherent and indespensable, the fundamental powers of the state are not
without restrictions-as ours is a government of limited powers, even these prerogatives may not be
exercise arbitrarily, to the prejudice of the bills of rights. The presumption in libertarian societies is in
favor of private rights and against attempt on the part of the state to interfer with them, "
Constitutional provision for the security of persons and property should be liberally construed."
Hence, the exercise of these fundamental powers is subject at all times to the limitation and
requirements of the constitution and may in proper cases be annulled by the courts of justice.
