No more important question can
bs submitted to the people than that
Of changing the constitution Of our
state. and urge upon every voter the
importance Of acquainting himself
with the proposed amendments and
Of voting for or against everyone OF
them On election day. Amendment
No. I II. In my Judgment, Of the first
importance. a. It provides for the in
itiativs and the refsrendum. The
secretary Of state has issued q cir
cular giving Q very full and clear ex
planataon Of each amendment which
I trust every vetsr will procure and
rssd bsfors casting His ballot.
Another question which the people
ought 70 have the privilege Of deter
nining 10 that Of the elective fran.
ohise for women. No one should oh.
jeot to permitting the people to OK
press their will upon this question.
The legislature should submit the
necessary constitutional amendment.
