COUNTIES TO VOTE
ON GOVERNMENT
AMENDMENT WILL BE VOTED
ON AT FALL ELECTION
READ 1T CAREFULLY

Fifty-four Montana counties will be
given an opportunity to work out
their own administration problems BY
methods best suited to local condi-
tons under the constitutional amend
ment to be submitted to all the voters
of the state at the general election
on Nov. 7. The proposed amendment
to article 16 of the constitution
which would remove the limitations
of the present restricted form of
county government, a heritage from
colonial days, has a twofold purpose /;
First, it will permit counties to change
the form of their county government.
Second, it makes possible city and
county consolidation.
Few counties may wish consolida-
ton but all are interested in saving
expenses and in securing better gov
eminent than that provided under the
present system, declare leading citi-
zens in all parts of Montana who
have secured the presentation of the
legislative referendum in November.
No form of government under this
amendment, if adopted, can be forced
on the people of any county since all
proposed changes by the legislative
enactments it will make possible,
must be submitted to a vote. The
amendement is intended only to pave
the way for an efficient and modern
commission or other form of admins
tration for counties and to permit the
consolidation of cities and counties
where the present form of govern
ment imposes a burden of double tax
ton without a proportionate return.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1922-10-05

The proposed amendment has beer
officially endorsed by the Republican
state convention; the Democratic
state convention; the Montana Mum
cipal League; the State Tax Associa-
ton meeting at Billings; Gov. Joseph
M. Dixon; ex-Gov. S. v. Stewart and
scores of other leading citizens of
Montana.
Separate Ballot Given
Voters will be given a separate
ballot at the polls in November, per-
hitting them to register their pre-
ference on the adoption of the fol-
lowing amendment to the state con
stitution:
The legislative assembly may, by
general or special law, provide any
plan, kind, manner or form of NUM-
cipal government for counties, or
counties and cities and towns or cit
les and town, and whenever deemed
necessary or advisable, may abolish
city and town government and unite
consolidate and merge cities and
towns and county under one munich
pal government and any limitations
In this constitution notwithstanding,
may designate the name, fix and pre-
the number designation, terms,
qualifications, method of appoint
ment, election or removal of officers
therefore, define their duties and fix
penalties for the violation thereof,
and fix and define boundaries of the
territory so governed, and may pro-
vide for the discontinuance of such
of government when deemed
advisable; provided; however; that
no form of government permitted in
his section shall be adopted or dis
continued after it has been submitted
0 the qualified electors in the terri
DRY affected and by them approved.

Golden, Silver, Three China Weddings
Jointly Celebrated

Traer, Iowa-A golden wedding,
a silver wedding and three china
weddings were commemorated in
one big celebration.
All of these interesting ami
versaries fell in one immediate fam
lily, that of Mr.. and Mrs. N. H.
Adams, at whose home in Traer the
joint celebration was held Wednes-
day. The exact dates came within
a few weeks Of each other, the 26th
being the twenty-ffith anniversary of
the marriage of Rev. and Mrs. Frank
Adams, of Elgin, III. Fifty years ago
Mr.. and Mrs. N. H. Adams were
married in Michigan; twenty years
ago A. d. Adams and wife, of
Somers, Mont, were united. Two
daughters of Mr.. and Mrs. Adams,
Bertha L. Cults, of Toledo, H., and
Olive Root, of Brookfeld, Mo-, were
married twenty years ago.
The Adams home was beautifully
decorated in gold and silver for the
suspicious occasion. While the real
celebration was held on Wednesday,
most of the party guests remained
several days to visit. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Adams are hale and hearty.
