The third proposed amendment In
contained In Chapter sos of the Laws
of Minnesota 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 Section II, and which
shall read as fO1IOwss
Section IT. The legislature may
provide for the payment, by the State
of Minnesota, of damages to growing
crops by hail and wind, or either, and
to provide fund for that purpose, In
Guiding the necessary expenses of CIV
ing effect to this act may impose
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"
EFFECT. The effect of this Amend
ment, III adopted, will be to authorize
the State to become a trustee in the
collection and disbursement of q fund
for the payment of damages to. grow
ing crops by hail or wind, either.
This fund is to be created and main
tanned by a specific tax imposed by the
legislature upon the lands of such per-
sons, ONLY, as shall voluntarily list the
same with their respective county au-
ditOrs for that purpose. Under 1T there
could be mo tax for such purpose inn
posed ON the lands of amy owner who
does not consent thereto. The legfsla-
ture is also authorized to include I'm
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
NRSHA NN& Taw nfF
of the State; hut any payments to be
made by the State, by reason of dam
age by hail or wind will have to be
made from such fund and from me-
other. In the settlement of any such
damages the State would assume mo
liability beyond the amount of such
fund, and could not further be rem
dered liable. similar amendment
was offered at the general election of
1908, but mot adopted. The amendment
then offered read as follows:
Section IT. The legislature may
provide for the payment by the State
of Minnesota of damages to growing
crops by hail and wind, or either, and
to provide a fund for that purpose, may
impose specific tax upon lands, the
owners of which, at their options 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, or either, to further
provide an additional tax upon the
lands of the persons SO listing this
snme. to meet the necessary expenses
Incurred I'm the administration of thu
law and thus relieve the State there.

AMENDMENT.

The fourth proposed Amendment 10
contained I'm Chapter 500, General Laws
of Minnesota for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. BY this amendment it Is
sought to repeal Section % of Article
Nv of the Constitution, which section
now reads as follows:
Section %. 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 enumeration
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, 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. AT any session after any emu
meration of the Inhabitants of this
state made pursuant to law and also
at any session after each enumeration
made by the authority of the United

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 of this article"
EFFECT. The effect of this Amend-
Ment will be to direct the legislature

Dear Sir:-Referring to proposed Con-

AS state expert printer l have given the
publications involved in this proposed
amendment special thought and am Of
opinion both these publications are en-
tirely supertiuous- The extensive annual
publication lin daily newspaper pub
fished at the capital city" attracts abb
solutely no attention. The. annual re-
port Of tho state treasurer fs published
In book form, and to an extent that
makes it easy for every person special
ly concerned to secure a copy. To con-
form strictly with the law as II is az
present, means the expenditure, under
of approximately IS, 600, a sum which
can be used to excellent advantage un-
der conditions which ordinarily suggest
the greatest care and economy upon the
part of those under whose direction the
printing fund is expended.
