The governor in his veto said: s"The
whole subject of voting for and issu
ing bonds by towns Or other political
subdivisions of the state is of too
much Importance to be legislated upon
in so loose and indefinite a manner
If the laws now on the statute books
are either too stringent or too lax,
they can easily be amended by definite
and certain language. They ought
not to be changed or modified by so
general and indefinite an act as is pro-
posed by this bill The second was
an act authorizing a school board in
Waukesha county to borrow money.
Of this the governor said: ''The
present laws would seem simply to
cover all necessity for borrowing
money on the part of school districts.
Mr.. Fesenfelds bill to regulate the
teaching of dancing was laid on the
table which is equivalent to being in
