Pierre Many inquiries as to the best
manner of opening rhe way to state aid
to highways, and a few other matters,
without absolutely a%bolishing the con
stitutional prohibition of state aid to
internal improvements has finally
brought out a suggestion for the sub
mission of a constitutional amendment
which will allow the state to aid in
highway constructions; in the putting
in of irrigation systems, in the de-
velopment of coal mines. and in the
development of water power plants.
1t is along these lines that the great
est demand comes for state aid and it
is believed that some such amendment
would have a good chance of passing
both branches of the legislature, and
securing the vote of the people.
