but said several. older men in the isthmian
service believed, in the contract system
Prices for all foodstuffs were high when
the present commission took, hold OF ~
fairs on the ,isthmus said Mr. Shonts., and
he then told of opening the comniissary
department to the laborers to remedy the
conditions He discussed the Markell con-
tract. p, a"r. .-. '....'
mo matter how the canal is built" he
said. there are two things over which the
United States should always exercise con-
troll, the government of the zone and the
sanitation. And the governor of the
zone should have his headquarters at
Ancon."
Senator German conducted an extended
examination of the witnesses concerning
conditions at the time Mr.. Wallace sur
rendered charge OF the work and Mr.. Stew
ems took control He showed that Mr..
Stevens had increased the payroll from 5000
to 1900 men in three months without doing
anything toward digging the canal. No
trouble was experienced in getting plenty OF
Martinique and Jamaican laborers but
there had been difficulty in getting the best
class OF labor according to Mr.. Shonts.
Families of Laborers. II,
Senator German asked concerning the de-
mand for the importation Of women and the
witness replied that this had been brought
about by the assurance that better laborers
| could be obtained II their families, were
| taken TO the isthmus. Mr.. Stevens was said
| by Mr.. Shonts to have been responsible for
the importation OF families. but Mr.. Shonts
| said be had later approved his action. 1t
appeared that the canal commission paid 81
head for the Importation of these women
and Senator German asked in what manner
this money was recovered We don't get
1t hack. 1t is gratuity." Most of these
women found employment in the hotels and
boarding houses and that in fact they were
laborers. ,s.t .-.-ts --r- '-s. .--
III was explained by Mr. shonts that au-
thority had been issued to Mr.. Stevens to
enter. into contracts OF various descriptions
without submitting the terms TO the canal
commission. but that his acts under this
broad instruction. were subject to review.

Hon. Peter F.. Hanson,

Sir:
As required by Section 20 OF the
Revised Laws. 1 have the honor to
advise you as to the purpose ana

arc to be voted on by the people at

1OWinG( 4,raa 70 .sss,a4s.s = =. s.9: .

"Section 16. For the purpose of lending
aid in the construction and Improvement
of public highways and bridges there is
hereby created fund. to be known as
the state Road and Bridge Fund said
fund shall include all moneys accruing
from the income derived from invest
ments IN the Internal Improvement land
fund, or that ;mly hereafter accrue to
funds accruing: to any state road and
brldSe tund, however provided. =
to such fund for the purpose of con-
bridges of this state, by providing, in
its discretion, for an annual tax levy
" upon aLc the property Of this state Of not
one mill on all, taxable property within
the state. 49,.
provided, that no county shall receive
or less than one-half Gk) of one Q) per
cent OF the total fuHd thus provided and
expended during such year; and provided,
further, that in no case shall more than
ing or. improving any road or bridge be
paid by the state from such fund.-
The purpose and object of the
amendment is 1sD to eliminate
from the Constitution the require
ment that IN unsalaried highway
commission shall be appointed to
have charge of the expenditure Of
the road and brodge fund. This
would leave it optional with the
legislature to have a state highway
commission or not; (2nI to in
crease the tax which can be levied
for state road purposes from one
twentieth of mill to one-fOurth of
Il MILL The legislature may levy a
less tax, but can not exceed one
fourth of q mill. The prOviSo shows
how it will be divided among the
counties.
The third proposed amendment to
the Constitution is contained in
Chapter 2S3 of the Laws of 1905
| and is us follows:
Section IS. Any person may sell o,
