ANENDNENT

The fourth proposed Amendment Is
contained in Chapter 500, General Laws
OF Minnesota for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. BY this amendment it Is
sought to repeal Section 23 of Article
Nv of the Constitution, which section
now reads as follows:
Section 90 The legislature shall
provide by law for an enumeration OF
the inhabitants of this State in the
year one thousand eight hundred and
sixty-five. and every tenth year there
after. At their first session after each
enumeration SO made, and also at their
first session after each enumeratio
made by the authority of the United
States. the legislature shall have the
pos ar to prescribe the bounds of con-
gri :siOnal senatorial and representa-
tive districts, and to apportion anew
the senators and representatives among
the several districts according to the
provisions of section second of this
article
and TO substitute therefor the follow
ing:
Section %. The legislature shall
provide by law for enumeration of the
inhabitants of this State in the year
1915, and every ten (10) years there
after. Al any session after any emu
meration of the inhabitants of this
state made pursuant to law and also
at any session after each enumera ton
made by the authority of the United
States. the legislature shall have the
power to prescribe the bounds of con-
gressional, senatorial and representa-
tive districts, or any of the same and
to apportion anew the senators and
representatives among the several dis
tricts according to the provisions Of
section 2 of this article"
EFFECT. The effect of this Amend
ment will be to direct the legislature
to provide for census of the inbab-
itants of the State in the year 1919.
and every tenth year thereafter, and
will also authorize the legislature ta
change the boundaries of cOnSressionaI
senatorial and representative districts.
or of any one of such districts, and IN
appOrtiOn anew the senators and rem.
resentatives among the several dis
tricts, at any session after any State or
Federal census. If adopted, the Iecis
lature might therefore, if it deems
best, change at any session the bouud-
aries of such districts and apporf;o,,
anew the senator's and Representative
and thus redistrict the State every two
years.

S Nd PROP SEQ
AMENDMENT.

The second proposed amendment is
contained in Chapter 5O7 of the Laws
of Minnesota for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. by this amendment it il
proposed to repeal the provisions of
Section IL of Article TX of the Con.
stitutiOn, which section now reads as
follows:
Section II. There shall be published
by the treasurer. in at least one news

THIRD PROPOSED AMEND
NIENT.

The third proposed amendment is
contained in Chapter SOS of the Law"
of Minnesota for tn, year 1909.
PURPOSE. By this amendment it is
proposed to add an entirely new sec
ton to Article TX of the Constitution
to be known as Section IL, and when
shall read follows:
Section II. The legislature may
provide for the payment, by the state
OF Minnesota, of damages to growing
crops by hail and wind, or either, ana
to provide a fund for that purpose, IN
Guiding the necessary expenses OF CIV
ing effect to this act may impose
speclhc tax upon lands, the owners ol
which, at their opt on, have listed the
same with county auditors for tnat
purpose, and no payment shall be mace
OF any such damages except from the
fund SO provided"
EFFECT. The effect of this Amend
ment, III adopted, will be to authorize
the State to become a trustee IN the
collection aud disbursement of a fund
for the payment of damages to grow
Ing crops by hail or wind, or either.
This fund is to be created and MAIN
tanned by specific tax imposed by the
legislature upon the lands of such per-
sons, ONLY, as shall voluntarily list the
same with their respective count! au-
ditOrs for that purpose. Under II there
could be no tax for such purpose I'M
posed on the lands of any owner VINO
does not consent thereto. The legisla-
fure Is also authorized to include In
such fund the necessary expenses OF
administration of the law. The adop-
ton of the amendment will authorize
the legislature to direct that the tax
ing machinery of the state be used to
levy and collect the tax necessary to
raise such fund and to provide for the
disbursement of same by the officers
of the State; but any payments to be
made by the State, by reason of dam
age by hail wind will have to be
made from such fund and from NO
other. In the settlement of any such
damages the State would assume no
liability beyond the amount of such
fund, and could not further be rem
dered liable. A similar amendment
was offered at the general election of
1905, but not adopted. The amendment
then offered read as follows:
Section II. The legislature may
provide for the payment by the State
of Minnesota of damages to growing
crops by hail and :, ind, or either, and
to provide a fund for that purpose, may
impose a specific tax upon lands, the
owners of which. at their option have
listed the same with county auditors
for that purpose, and no payment shall
be made of any such damages except
from the fund so provided"
The main difference between the
amendment now offered, and the one
last quoted, being that the legislature
Is now to be authorized, in addition to
providing fund for the purpose Of
paying damages to growing crops by
hail and wind, either, to further
provide an additional tax upon the
lands of the persons SO listing the
same, to meet the necessary expenses
incurred i'm the administration of the
law and thus relieve the State there
from. This last provision was not in
cluded i'm the amendment offered in
1908.

SIXTH PROPOSED AMEND
MENT.

The sixth proposed amendment Is
contained in Chapter 81. Laws of Min
nesOta for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. by this amendment it In
proposed to add an entirely new Sec
ton to Article TX Of the Constitution
to be known as Section Ia, and which
shall read as follows:
Section Ia. Laws may be enacted
exempting lands from taxation for the
purpose of encouraging and promoting
the planting, cultivation and protec-
ton of useful forest trees thereon"
EFFECT. The effect of this am end
ment is to authorize the legislature to
enact laws exemptinE from taxation
lands of private persons to be used I'M
the planting, cultivation and prote ctton
of useful forest trees thereon. and Thus
supplement where the lands Of SucI,
private persons are devoted to refor-
estraticn, the purposes contemplated as
to public lands by the fifth proposed
amendment. The authority so granted
is part of general plan for the re for
estration of land within the state If
the legislature does not pass such Iavxs
such lands will not be exempt and th,.
power to repeal such a law, when en-
acted, remains with the legislature.
Power to pass law to EXEMPT suci,
lands from taxation the ley;sIaturq
does not now possess, and 1t is, there
fore, an additional grant of power.
Yours respectfully,
GEORGE T. SIMPSON.
Attorney General.

NOW FOR PLAY GROUNDS
Association Holds Meeting at the
Commercial Club.

AS result of a meeting of the
board of directors of the Topeka Play
grounds association held this noon at
the Commercial club active steps will
be taken Immediately in the direction
of launching a movement which it is
hoped will accomplish great results in

vision Of the Parkdale Fairgrounds.
1t was also stated that the associa-
ton has the permission of the Kansas
State Fair association to establish
playground for children on the fair
grounds, and it was suggested that
money could be secured through CIV
ing an entertainment of folk dances
and foreign children's games with APP
propriate band music, and plenty of
popcorn and pink" lemonade, to par
TALLY defray the expenses of establish
ing such an amusement park for the
youngsters.
Each member of the board agreed
to make an effort to secure ten new
members for the association, who
would pay membership fee Of dol
lar.
THE playground question is right
in line with the tuberculosis move
ment,'' said DIR. c. B. Van Horn, pres
ident of the association. 1--WE don't
need to feel that Fairgrounds are a
1uXury-they are necessity. They
are a means by which tuberculosis
may be prevented"
