cred the neE measure printed and the
whole matter laid over until next
week. The Amendments simply tend
70 perfect the measure. II provides
that the state shall draw its revenues
from the public service corporations
and taxes on their franchises, from
licenses inheritance taxes and fees Of
public officers This would leave al
real and personal property to be taxed
By the counties and cities ana school
districts The measure has the hearty
approval Of T. y. Juds1n, Of ST Louis
and other goodauthoriues on taxation.
Clay discovered that unless he could
make an additional change the adopt
ion Of his Amendment would introduce
q contradiction into the constitution.
Accordingly he prepared a section 10
repeal that part Of the constitution
which says that the Valuation Of prop
eTty for local purposes shall not ex-
coed the valuation for state and
county purposes He also proposes 70
cut out Of the Constitution the last
sentence Of section IL article Y, which
SAYS: The rate herein allowed 20

called attention 20 the fact that there
would be a seeming contradiction il
the Amendment should Be adopted,
and it might happen that oOmpica-
tons would arisa that EouIdb e trouble
some when the enforcement Il the
measure should be attempted. Ayde-
lott protested against immediate ae-
ton and the delay vas 70 give him

quiet and unObtrusive in manner and
