The Amendments.
existence

Reports from St. Paul where the
official election returns. are being
slowly received indicate that the
Dunn amendment and the amend
>ment providing for an increase in
the railroad gross earnings tax will
be carried. Returns on the other
amendments are not enough complete
to allow a forecast
Fifty-three counties have reported
to date and the total vote is 177,227
making a majority of 1854. The
railroad amendment received 9S,763
votes or over 10000 more than a ma
jority. 1t is believed that this in
crease in taxation will bring the state
about s1,ooO,0oO year in added
revenue. In Hennepin county the
vote was light but returns from the
country districts indicate that more
attention was paid to the amend
ments than in the cities.
