ThSs-SSCO A"CNOmENt NJ, s.
By the adoption of Laws 1881, chap
ter All, the legislature has proposed
an amendment to article of the con-
stitution by adding thereto a new sec
ton, to be known as section s, to read
as follows:
amy OF the public lands OF the
state, including lands held in trust
for any purpose, may, with the
approval of commission consist
ing of the governor, the attorney
general and the state auditor be
exchanged for lands of the United
States as the legislature may pro-
vide, and the lands so acquired

The Purpose of the Proposed Amendment
The proucsed amendment is Intended,
hrst. tc give the legislature specific au-
thorIty TO enact such laws respecting
the taxation Of national banking asso-
Citations as will conform r. the laws OF
the United States. TIE laws of the
United States at present provide in SUBJ
stance that the states may tax the
shares of national banking associa-
fion, provided ti'at tte rate OF tax on
such shares shall net be greater than is
assessed upon other eacneyed capital in
the hands of Individual citizens OF such
state coming in competition with the
business Of national banks. At present
the laws of Minnesota provide that
shares OF such banking association
shall be assessed at thirtv-three and
one-third per cent tS5 1870 of their
true and full vaiue. Moneys and credits
and mortgages upon and executory con.
tracts for the sale of real estate are
taxed in this state at lower rate. The
supreme court OF the United States has
heId that the Minnesota plan Of taxing
shares of national banking association
is invalid because these shares are taxed
at higher rate than moneys and
credits and mortgages on and executcry
contracts for the sale of real es-
tate. Under the proposed amendment
II Is Intended TO give the legislature the
power to enact laws for the taxation OF
national banks that shall be In harmony
with the federal statutes on that sub.
lSStg even thcu0f SuCH laws might or
TEND other provisions of the state con-
stitution.
The remainder OF the new matter
which would be placed In said section I
by the proposed amendment is intended
90 give the legislature specific authority
TO enact laws providing for tax on In.
comes, and on franchises and privi.
teues measured by income, including In
come, franchises and privileges of rail.

Intended that the legislature shall have

classes OF real or personal property as

The Effect Of THE Proposed Amendment
The effect ct the proposed amend
ment, II aco, ted, will be to abrogate the
constitutional requirement that school
and swamp iancs be disposed of only by
public sale and viii permit the lepisla-
ture to authorize the exchange of such
lands for lands of the United States,
with the approval of commission cen.
sisting of the governor. the attorney
general and the state auditor. All min.
ersi ami water and water power rights
in Lands so transferred are reserved to
the state. The proceeds of sales Of
FEDERAL lands so acquired by exchange
would be sub iect. under the proposed
amendment, to the same trusts as the
state lands which were conveyed.

One day there came a casual
announcement that Sir Ernest
Shackleton, the Antarctic ex-
plorer, was to deliver a series of
lectures which we were to attend.
We attended.
The famous EngliShman, just

was enough for us. We knew,
then, what was down on the

ABC's of the military game, had
sold every one of us the notion
that the World War was the
