to the wood a brilliant color, which

Of wood as great as thirteen feet.
When seasoned and polished the

The purpose and object of the
am endment is GsD to eliminate
from the Constitution the require
ment that an unsalaried highway
comm issiom shall be appointed to
have charge of the expenditure of
the road and bridge fund. This
would leave it optional with the
legislature to have state highway
commission or not; (2nd) to in
crease the tax which can be levied
for state road purposes from one
twentieth of u mill to One-fourth of
mill. The legislature may levy
less tax, but can not exceed one
fourth of a mill. The proviso shows
how it will be divided among the
counties.
THIRD PROPOSED AMENDMENT.
The third proposed amendment to
the Constitution is contained in
Chapter 2S3 of the Laws of 1905,
and is follows:
Section 49,. Any person may sell or
peddle the products of the farm or gar
den occupied and cultivated by him
without obtaining license therefor"
This proposed amendment is in
tended to be added to Article one
ID Of the Constitution, which is
known the bill of rights, and
will, if adopted. be Section 1S of
said Article, leaving all of the Ar
ticle otherwise as it is at present.
The only change that would be
effected thereby would be to enable
amy farmer gardener to sell the
products of the farm garden,
which he occupies and cu1tivates,
within any city village in the
state by peddIing the same from
house to house without taking out
a pedGIIer's license.
