Amendment Was Not Published.

HfncHCH1SHl Was INOl FuDuS!lCCs
 The omission of the text of Amend ment No. 16 on the initiative and r L erendum from the published jOurn II of the state senate started furry among tie friends of the measure which was not Cuieted until the writ. ten record of the senate was carefully examined and found to contain the text of the amendment in question.
 In some way, the published record failed to have anything but refer ence to the amendment, which was known in the proceedings as Senate Joint Resolution No. 1, by Senator Arnold the amendment for the ill. itiative and referendum having been first introduced by the Clark county senator According to the state con stitution, all amendments proposed to the constitution must be properly entered and the yeas and nays repor'- ed in the journals of the legislatul c.

The writ ten record, as filed in the office Of the secretary of state, however, has the amendment properly set out in the proceedings of the second day of the last senate, January 12, 1909, and also sets out in full the house amend- ment to the joint resolution, in which the municipality and county idea was inserted, when the measure came back to the senate for action on this change in the original resolution. The adoption of the amendment to the resolution is properly noted and the yeas and nays regularly set out, so there appears to be no doubt as to the validity of the method by which the resolution went through the senate

SO, 65S, 900 cattle in the country. At the
