Ing this present amendment are paw
ing the way for just such proceed
ing. They are establishing the pre-
cedent for such action. Il would be
just 20 legitimate for one class to do
.. this 40 another class. There IL al
ways danger Of such things when
classes are deliberately organized to
attack other classes. The majority
Of the voters of this state do not own
land. The majority Of them get their
living from other sources, and they
could be expected to fight for their
own interests II conditions were
made SO that their living was threat
cned Some political party of the
future could be trusted to recognize
such possible condition as / have
pointed out and organize the politi-
cal strength Of 1t.
Even the present amendment
alone is dangerous to the very peo-
! pie who are being urged to support
1t as matter-of selfish interest.
Once in the Constitution It would be
hard to get 1t out, and doubtless
stay there for many years. How
would those who are supporting 1t
now feel II some time later on we
should have q board Of equalization
which would put mine taxes DOWN
instead Of uPf One can be done a.
easily - the other under this g (end.
ment. II that happens who would
have to pay the heavy taxes? Not
the mines.
All the taxpayers may feel safe
only when the Constitution puts lin
it,. low a. well a. high. on taxes,
which this amendment does not do.
Under II, It is possibleto tax net pro-
ceeds of mines at q hundredth of
their actual amount or even less
than that. as we'll as at more than
their actual amount. This could be
accomplished by ONE man. IL we

He could make such men agree In
advance to do what he wished, and
II they subsequently refused he could
put them out of their positions at
once and replace them with men who
would carry out his wishes. He
would have all the powers Of a SOW
ereign in an absolute monarchy an
far as this matter is concerned.
! believe that II the voters only
give this amendment careful thought
as to what 1t means. without listen

except what the amendment itself |

Does anyone suppose that the Con-
stitution, when II was originally ad-
opted. n It had contained section
like the one proposed to be put In
place Of section 4, would have been
accepted by Congress? A section
which exalts an appointive board
above the peoples legislature and
the peoples courts. and leaves no
limits to restrain that board IL abb
solutely un-American. no matter

who know the rugged nature OF the

he would never have coutnenanced

Those who prepared and are sup
