Biennial Election Amendment and State Reform Measures
The legislature adjourned after passing measures aimed at reform and economy. Key actions include the biennial election amendment to restrict elections to every two years, separate ballots for constitutional amendments, the valued policy insurance law, and overhaul of building and loan laws with salary caps and interest reductions. Major appropriations boost university, normal school, agricultural college, Cherokee asylum, and board of control projects. A two year state levy is forecast at 24 mills with a planned $1.4 to $1.5 million biennial tax target, plus treasury surplus management and specific local funding allocations. Additional bills address highway care penalties, fish and game funding, Russian thistle notices, hunting licenses, boxing restrictions, and penalties for aiding such events.
