state for the use and support of an agri-
cultural college, and all proceeds from the
sale thereof are hereby pledged for the
payment of the bonds and interest thereon.
This. section" says the governor, 'seem-
ing to be in conflict with section 159 of the
constitution, the whole question of
the constitutionality of the bill
was referred to the attorney
general. and his opinion thereon,
as furnished to this office is as follows:
Here follows a long and exhaustive opin-
ion from Attorney. General Goodwin, in
which he sets forth that the Objectionable
section in the bill expressly pledges all
lands granted for the use and support OF
an agricultural college, which would in
clude the 10000 acres granted by section Is
OF the enabling act, as well as.the 10000
granted by section IT,. He declares this in
conflict with the constitution of the state,
which provides that all lands and other
property received from the United States
or other source, shall be and remain ptrpet-
ual fundS,the interest and income of which,
together with the grants of all such lands as
may remain ulIsnld, shall be lnviOlably
appropriated and applied to the specific
object OF the original grants or gifts;
further providing that the principal may
be increased but never diminished, the in
terest and income only to be used.
After giving the attorney generals Opin-
ion as ground for veto, the governor adds:
Were there no constitutional restrictions
| would deem it Incompatible with the best
interests of the state and or the various in
stitutions for which the ands were do
mated, that these lands,o or the income from
them, should be thus or in any manner
pledged for the issuance of bonds, or any
evidence of indebtedness of the state.
Should this policy be pursued, the state
would S0on IND itself win the various III.

This statement or the expenditures OF
North Dakota has been carefully made for
the purpose or settlement between North
and South Dakota in accordance with the
agreement Of the joint commission OF the
constitutional convention m IS therefore
absolutely correct. 1t will be seen by these
figures that at the same rate of cost for the
present fiscal year, the current expenses OF
North Dakota, including only the main
tenance of the public institutions and one-
half of the general expense OF the territory.
would be 1899 Is. This amount does
not include the cost of the present session
of the legislature, which at the present rate
of cost per day will be, should it continue
in session !2o days. at least Sl0O.OoO. On a
careful estimate it is believed that the an
nual increase in the general expense OF the
state government, over and above North
Dakota's share of the general expense OF
the territorial government Will be S5O,ON
per a9num Which ,o f9r tne touI mon 1da9
from November 4, 1889, to March ., lSSO
would be $l6,666.66, which to the
amounts above mentioned make me PROB
