EXplanasiOn.-Itw will be seen that the
| manner OF voting upon these two proposed
| amendmentsis entirely different. The reason
| for this is that the first amendent was pro-
| posed under al act of the legislature passed
| prior to the general election law of 1891, and
| is to be voted upon subject to the provisions
| OF SAID general election law. But the second
! proposed amendment is submitted under an
| act OF the legislature passed after the general
| election law of 1891, and in terms provides
now 1t shall be voted upon, and as above in
| dlcated. The object of the first proposed
| amendment is to restrict special legislation.
! The object OF the second proposed amend
| ment is to regulate the taxation of railroads,
| sleeping, drawing room and parlor car COM
| panles, telegraph and telephone companies,
| express and insurance companies by taxing
| the gross earnings or by a licensed fee: and
| authorizing specific tax on mining prop
