AMENDMENT
 NUMBER 10. Some of the Reasons Why Its Adoption Would be Good for
 the State.

There will be submitted to the people of the state at next months election two proposed amendments to the state constitu- tion. Amendment No. 3 is known as the poll tax amendment requiring electors to pay poll tax before being allowed to vote, which was passed upon a few years ago by the people and de- clared adopted, but was later de- elared not to have received the re- quired number of votes, and the last legislature voted to re-submit lit.
 Amendment No. 10 is printed Tn full elsewhere in The News. It's object is to so change the con- stitution as to permit towns, cities and counties to issue bonds for the construction of roads, highways, and other improve ments of public nature. The News believes 1t will be a good thing for the state to adopt this amendment, and hopes to see the people vote for 1t next month. It was endorsed by both the Dem oeratie and Republican state con- ventions, by the Good Roads con- vention, by the Farmers Union and numerous other conventions and organizations. So far as We have heard there is no opposition to the amendment. and the only thing necessary for its adoption Is for the people to be advised concerning the question. Before an amendment can De adopted 1t must receive majority of all votes cast=at tile election, and If you fail to vote for or against the amendment you virtually vote against 1t.
 A committee of mayors Of different towns in the state, in njunction with a committee from the Arkansas Good Roads Association, has prepared the following reasons showing why Amendment No. 10 should be adopted:
 Because every thinking man ill the state favors 1t, and If 1t fails 1t will only fail because the voters forget to vote on It.
 Because 1t will permit the far mers to build fine roads to the nearest market.
 Because with good roads the government will deliver your iHdll al your door.
 Because good roads make farm property several times as valu- able as without good roads.
 Because with good roads the farmer can market his goods at half the cost, or sell his farm al 
 double or treble its present value.
 Because improvements will make the state rich and prosper ous and increase values many times more than the small tax, and you and your children dur ing your lifetime can enjoy privi- leges which otherwise could not be had for mauy years.
 Because if you build house or make some other improve ment, you don't hesitate to bor- row money for if, and 1t IS just as good business when you and your neighbors want to build fine road to do the same.
 Because the people of all the other states have this right, and have made their states great, and can trust their officials to spend it.
 Because our officials are just as
