VOTE FOR THIS AMENDMENT
Highway Betterment Will Be Promoted
if Proposition Carries.

One of the most important PROPOSE
tons to be considered at the coming
election is the amendment to the con-
stitution known as Amendment No. |
on the good roads amendment.
AS the constitution and road law
now stands the state pays one-third of
the cost of state roads or bridges
provided the same are continued under
the rules and regulations of the high
way commission. The proposed amend
ment provides that the state shall pay
one half instead of one third AT pres
ent if the state contributes one thou
sand dollars in aid of state road work
the counties must contribute twice as
much or two thousand dollars. With
the proposed amendment in force the
counties would be required to expend
only one thousand dollars to the states
thousand. The state aid fund is pto-
vided by tax on all the property in
the state, but no part of the same is
expended within the corporate limits
of any city or village, and as such
cities and villages in the aggregate con-
tribute about half of the total
fund it will be readily seen that the
agricultural communities will be to a
great extent the gamer by the adop-
ton of this amendment.
