ROAD AND BRIDGE FUND AMENDMENT.
The constitution now provides a
State road and bridge fund consist
ing of ali the returns from the in
vestment Of the internal improve
ment land funds and any other State
road and bridge fund. together with
an annual tax of not to exceed one
twentieth of a mill This fund the
legislature eau divide among the
counties giving not over one third
OF the cost OF any bridge or high
way, nor more than three per cent.
or less than one-half of one per cent.
Of the total fund Of any one county.
nor more than one-third of the total
fund for bridges. All money is to
be expended under the direction of
the State commission. This, as can
be seen. is extremely cumbersome
and intricate. Under it no proper
or adequate system of State aid to
roads can be built up. The pro-
posed amendment merely increases
the permitted annual tax from one
twentieth to one-tenth of mill,
which means that the legislature
cannot levy more, but may levy less
or nothing. But whatever fund is
raised it is to be appropriated with
out any restrictions by the legisla-
ture and the State commission is
cut out This will permit adequate
help to new counties and to thinly
settled districts.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS.
Voters Should Read Them Carefully and
Vote "Yes' on all Four.

The voter will have no more i'm
portant duty at the next election
than to vote on the proposed consti-
tutional amendments. Under the
constitution no amendment can be
passed except by a majority OF all
the votes cast 1t has to have over
half of all the votes put in the ballot
boxes and therefore the man who
does not vote at all on the amend
ments, that is, does not mark them
at all, in effect votes against them
To vote for them you have to mark
the ballot, to vote against them you
merely have to do nothing. It is
therefore absolutely essential that
the voter mark his ballot if be wants
the amendment to pass. This year S
proposed amendments also are the
most important ever submitted in
this State
WHAT THEY COVER.
Four constitutional amendments
will be on the ballots. The first is
on the increase of the gross earn
ings tax OF railroads from three to
four per cent. The second is to
increase the size of the State loans
that can be made to cities, villages,
towns and school districts. The
third concerns State aid in road and
bridge building. The fourth is to
permit the drawing of a model tax
law.
THEIR PLACE ON THE BALLOT.
The legislature, recognizing the
Importance of such measures and
the Importance Of having everyone
vote on them, has placed the amend
Iments first on the ballot. They will
he right at the top. The RepubE-
cans, ever watchful of the!interests
Eof the people, viii urge their full
discussion and that every voter
vote on them one way or the other.

sively that you did not approve ol
them, but only that you were in

This includes all business done be-
ginning and ending in the State,
and just proportion OF their earl
.ings on all the interstate business
passing through, coming into Or
going out OF the State. This three
per cent. tax last year was abou:
81, 800, 600. It is now proposed to
make this tax four per cent, which
would this last year have made it
81, 100 GOO The vote Of the people
on this will be absolute and final.
No law will be required to carry it
into effect and the Supreme court
has already held that this increase
can Oe made as to all roads organ
lied since Minnesota became a
State and Attorney General Doug
lass holds that it has the same pow
er as to the roads organized while
Minnesota was territory. In any
event this vote will simply show
if the people want this railroad tax
increased; any question as to the
right to increase it as to a part of
the roads, the courts can settle. 1t
is up to the people.
STATE LOAN AMENDMENT.
The constitution now permits
loans to be made from the perma-1
nent school and university funds to
counties, school districts. towns,
cities and villages at not less than
three per cent interest, for not less
than five or longer than twenty
wears, when the loan does 1T make
the total bonded debt OF the borrow
er exceed seven per cent. of the as
sessed valuation.
The proposed amendment only
changes this by increasing the
amount that can be loaned from sew
en- to fifteen per cent. of the as
sessed valuation The constitution
fixes all State loans at three per
cent. net. No State funds can be
loaned for less than this, and vet as
the money market is now and has
been for some time it is almost i'm
possible to get safe investments in
large sums at that rate. The com
mission consisting of the Governor,
auditor and treasurer have hunted
the country over for safe loans and
yet right here at home our own
people have been paying on their
county, school. town, village and
city bonds seldom less than FIVE
per cent. As every voter knows
these loans are absolutely safe. The
experiment of loaning up to seven
per cent. OF the valuation has been
a success. but the amount permitted
is so low that only the smaller and
practically debt free organizations
can take advantage of the law. It
is now proposed toextend its scope,

At Washington's Grave.
(By the Associated Press.l


Washington, Feb 27.-Prince Henry of
Prussia journeyed to Mount Vernon this
afternoon and placed two wreaths on the
tomb of, Washington. He approached the
grave of the first President with barred
head, and that there might be nothing
irrevent in the ceremony asked the hold
ers of a dozen cameras who stood around
to refrain from photographing him.
Prince Henry walked to the Washing
ton home and was driven from there down
over the slope of the hill to the tomb.
When the iron gate of the tomb was
opened he removed his cap and entered
Two large wreaths made at Washington
by his order already had been sent to
the tomb and taking them up he form
ally set them in place. A group of over
a hundred men that stood in the approach
to the grave uncovered and that with
their silence added to the spirit of solem-
nifty.
Fifty feet down the slope that falls
away from the tomb Prince Henry plant
ed a linden tree. The tree had been set
in place prior to his arrival and taking
a spade the Prince filled the earth in
around it's roots. yhe Prince was taken
to the old Washington house where he
spent a few minutes in looking at the
Washington relics and then departed for
Washington.
Large crowds watched his arrival and
departure and his course through his
toric old Alexandria was lined with peo-
pie who cheered him cordially. Many
of the people of Alexandria mistook
Lieutenant Commander Schmidt Won
Schwind for the Prince and their error
led to an amusing incident. There is
some general resemblance between the
two and when the crowd singled out the
young naval officer and cheered him the
Prince was delighted. He called Chief
WillSie. of the Secret Service, and laugh
ingly gave him this order
Mr. Wilkie please tell Mr.. Schmidt
VonSchwipd to be very careful what he
does now for he must remember that
have reputation to sustain
The Lieutenant Commander was en-
barrassed by the enthusiastic attention of
the crowd and did not thoroughly appre-
ciate the humor of the Prince. He tried
to be unconcerned over the clamor of the
crowd and would not either bow or sa-
lutte in answer to the cheers.
1t was 1870 o'clock when Washington
was reached on the return trip and the
Prince was driven at once to the Ger
man Embassy.
