governor, arrived in San Francisco on
Sunday.
The people of California had been
advised by the democratic state central
committee that Theodore Bell had ar
ranged to make several speeches at
southern California points on Monday.
The public has learned that a few
hours after Patrick Calhoun arrived in
San Francisco from the east Theodore
Bell cancelled his Monday speaking en-
gagements and quietly slipped out of
Los Angeles on a flying trip TO San
Francisco. The public has since learned
that Bell did not wish his trip given
publicity and that his campaign man
ayers declined to offer any explanation
for il. Bell. they declared, came to San
Francisco for a conference with his
supporters" Was Patrick Calhoun,
lately arrived from the east, and one
of Bells most vociferous supporters
among those who Bell hurried to San
Francisco to meet?
The people of California have
learned that on Sunday, a few hours
before Bell hastily and secretively left
Los Angeles, has man Herring and Earl
Rogers, Patrick Calhoun's attorney,
helda conference in this city
They would he grateful if Bell would
explain what if any relation that con-
ference had with his hurried departure
from Los Angeles and what If any con-
nection it had with the attempt to
make the public believe that Johnson
had received money from Calhoun for
services rendered while Johnson was a
member of the graft prosecution.
After Bell has answered these ques-
tions he might relieve public curiosity
about Ruefs interest in his campaign
by explaining one of the incidents Of
his campaign in 1905 The public would
be glad to have Bell explain his failure
TO talk about Ruef and the graft pros
eeution a. the Walton pavilion meeting
just four years ago tonight.
The public wants to knox, Mr.. Bell,
If it is true that 1T a conference held
in Sacramento leaders of your party
pleaded with you until o'clock in the
morning trying to secure your promise
to speak out on the graft prosecution
and Ruef's debauchery of San Fran
cisco at the Walton pavilion meeing
The public would like your answer to
the charge that the declarations you
were to make al that meeting were put
in writing and finally reluctantly
greed to by you, Mr.. Bell The people
would be edifed by your answer to
the charge that you agreed to meet
the leaders of your party at a San
Francisco cafe before going to the
Walton's pavilion meeting, for a fur
ther discussion Of that speech, and that
you failed to keep that appointment.
The public would like to know If 1T is
true that you failed to keep that ap-
pointment. The public would like to
know iw it is true that instead of
meeting the leaders of your party, ac-
cording TO your engagement, you met
Abe Reuf before going to Walton's pa
vilion. The San Francisco public does
now that you were silent about Ruef
and the graft prosecution at that meet
ing. It would be glad to have you tell
1T why, Mr. Bell

THIRD PROPOSED AMEND
MENT.

The third proposed amendment 1s
contained in Chapter sos of the Law"
of Minnesota for th1 year 1909.
PURPOSE. By this amendment it tS
proposed to add an entirely new sec
tiOn to Article TX of the Constitution,
to be known as Section II, and which
shall read as follows:
Section II. The legislature may
provide for the payment, by the otaIe
of Minnesota of damages to growing
crops by hail and wind, or either anu
to provide a fund for that purpose IN
Guiding the necessary. expenses OF CIV
ing effect to this act. may impose
specific tax upon lands, the owners Oh
which, at their option, have Hsteo tIe
same with county auditors for that
purpose, and no payment shall be mace
of any such damages except from the
fund so provided"
EFFECT. The effect of this Amend
ment, if adopted, will be to authorize
the State to become a trustee in the
collection and 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 "a specific tax iE1pOsed by the
legislature upon the lands of Such per-
sons, ONLY, as shall voluntarily list Ihe
same with their respective count! au-
ditOrs for that purpose. Under it there
could be tax for such purpose I'M
posed on the lands of amy owner VINO
does not consent thereto. The leSlsla-
ture is also authorized to Include III
such fund the necessary expenses OF
administration of the law. The ad0p-
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 or wind will have to be
made from such fund and from NO
other. In the settlement of any such
damages the State would assume 40
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 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 y ind, or either, and
to provide 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 a 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 In the administration of the
law and thus relieve the State there
from. This last provision was not in
cIuded In the amendment offered in
1908.
Morris tribune., 1910-10-28
FOURTH ROPO Sc D
AMENDMENT

The fourth proposed Amendment IL
contained In Chapter 500, General Laws
Of Minnesota for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. BY this amendment it In
sought to repeal Section 23 of Article
Nv of the Constitution, which section
now reads as follows:
Section 23. 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

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 23 The legislature shall
provide by law for enumeration of the
inhabitants of this State in the year
1915, and every ten G0) years there
after At any session after any emu
meration of the inhabitants Of this
at any 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, 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
nent will be to direct the legislature
to provide for a census of the inhab-
ftants OF the State in the year 1918,
and every tenth year thereafter, and
will also authorize the legislature to
change the Boundaries of congressional,
senatorial and representative districts,
or Of any one of such districts, and to
auDOrtfOn anew the senators and rep
resentatIves among the several dis
trfcfa, at any session after any State or
Federal census. IL adopted, the legis-
lature might therefore, IL it deems
hest. change at any session the bound
aries of such districts and appOrtiOn
anew the senators and Representatives
and thus redistrict the State every two
years.
Morris tribune., 1910-10-28
SIXTH PROPOSED AMEND
MENT.

The sixth proposed amendment lS
contained in Chapter 511, Laws of MLn-
nesOta for the year 1909.
PURPOSE. By this amendment it is
proposed to add an entirely new Sec
tiOn to Article TX of the Constitution
to be known as Section liza, and which
shall read as follows:
"Section TIA. Laws may be enacted
exempting lands from taxation for the
purpose of encouraging and promoting
the planting, cultivation and prOtec-
tion of useful forest trees thereon"
EFFECT. The effect of this amend
ment is to authorize the legislature to
enact laws exemptinS from taxation
lands of private persons to be used in
the planting, cultivation and protection
of useful forest trees thereon, and thus
supplement where the lands of such
private persons are devoted to refOr-
estratiOn, the purposes contemplated as
to public lands by the fifth prODOsed
amendment. The authority so granted
Is part of a general plan for the refOr-
estratiOn of land within the state. TS
the legislature does not pass such lava
such lands will not be exempt and the
power to repeal such a law, when en-
acted, remains with the legislature.
Power to pass a law to exempt such
lands from taxation the IeSisIatur@
does mot now possess, and it In, there,
fore, an additional grant of power.
Yours respectfully, -.

COW-TESTING SCHEME.
Object Is to Eliminate the Unprofita-
BILE Producer.


BILE Producer.
The object of cow-testing associa-
lions is to eliminate the improbable
COWS, and supply their places with
such animals as will earn their keep
and pay their owner a profit Asso-
citation members employ an expert to
test the COWS in the association for a
period of at least a year, and to keep
an accurate record of the milk and
butter-fat each cow returns. Upon
the experts report this non-paying
stock is sent to the market after fat
tening. The system has been in prac-
tice in Denmark for long time, and
no Danish farmer would be without
the knowledge of his stock the asso-
@tation affords him. Danish efficiency
aR dairying is largely due to the COW
testing scheme. A few associations
Of this character have been organized
IN Minnesota, with most satisfactory
results. These, with the community
breeding scheme tried in some Iocalt
ties, are rapidly improving Minnesota
dairy herds; and any community will
tng to engage in these improved meth
DDS of dairying will find help and en-
coUragement by correspondence with
the Minnesota Agricultural College.
