The text of the plan, while tentative
is futher instructive as to the radical
sentiment of the committee. This plan
also provides for a Capitation tax of

the fund from this tax to be used for
free schools, one-half to be apportioned
by the general assembly over the State
according to population, and the other
half to be deposited in the treasury of
the City, town, or country where il

by cities, counties, or towns for local
purposes only. This significant clause
appears in the plan:
Electors in county, city, town, or
other local elections shall possess all

shall have power to rJrovide in such
