The PioneerPrcss supports Pillsbury
in preference to Buell. for Governor.
and the Grange Advance is Disguised
with both the Democratic and Anti
Monopoly tickets and comes out for
the Republican "Ominees. Things will
generally come around right about

Vim. Pr;pndcr, Republican candidate
for State Treasurer has made affidavit
that ''le never. 1T amy time, re ccivcd

TIE CUNs1ITUTION-iL AlrEND,f MEN rs
The Minnesota Legislature last VIM
ter passed four acts proposing four
amendments to the State Constitution.
The people will vote upon the adoption
or rejection Of these amendments on
Tuesday next. That all our readers
may vote diligently upon these prop.
os!tions W. aiys bcclov y statement of
their drsi gn:
The first is section i Of article 6, and
provides for districttng the State into
Judicial districts, and that in each dis
trict .. e0T more Judges shall be elected
hUtS,'e people. The design of this is 10
lnc1casc the number Of district judges.
on course this will also increase the j,,-
dicial expenses. which are already about
100000 a year. This is quite Il burden,
yet it is claimed by many that the Judi
cial business, even IN this sparse'y set
tied district, is entirely too much fol-
one judge.
The second amendment is termed
''Section Of article T." and provides
that any woman of p years cid and up
war: may vote ut school meetings an(
shall he eligible to the office Of sclloo
directors Or trustees.
This amendment. we can heartily ell
dorse, The education of children i
largely in the hands of the women. ant
they should haye q voice in the manage
ment Of schools. In one or two coull
ties of this State, women are alread'
acting as school directors, though act
ing mconstutiomlly. Let us make j
constitutional for women to vote Il
school elections and to hold schoo
Offices.
The third proposition is to amen
section of article Sof the constitutio
by adding a clause requiring the invest
ment of our school fund in bonds Of tn
United States, or Of this State issue
after 1860, or,of such other State as tn
Legislature may prescribe.
The design Of this is to prevent tn
investment of the school funds III tn
'rcpudiated or swindling railroa
bonds or in The deprecated bonds G
other States. AS the only effect of tli
CAR: be to guard more carefully the il,
vestment of 50 important fund, tn
amendment should be adopted.
Tire fourth amendment is to scctio
3 Of arti.le 10, and relates to the liabi
tiles: OF stockholders in corporations
and provides that instead of being Ii;
BILE for double the amount of stock the
shall be liable only for unpaid install
ments Of stock owned Ivy them or tran:
ferrell for tho purpose Of defraudin
creditors.
The effect of this will lie to encourae
Investments in manufacturing al
other enterprises, and the anendmel
should he adopted. ~;
