EXTRADITION GRANTED. CLEVELAND, Dec. Requisition for the return to Fort Wayne, of Charles O. Krugh, under arrest in Ohio City and wanted for fraud in connection with the sale of live stock, was granted today by Governor Donahey. successive Legislatures before it can be submitted to the people for ratification.

Two Amendments Vp. One of these amendments provides for the establishment of an Income tax in Indiana. Organized farmers are supporting this amendment and business interests are opposed to it. As most amendments to the constitution fail of ratification by the people at a general election because relatively few voters express themselves on amendments submitted, the farm organization is preparing to ask for the enactment of a law providing for the submission of the amendments at a special election this fall. Under rulings of the Supreme court an amendment can not be ratified unless a majority of those participating in an election vote favorably on it.

Often amendments submitted at regular elections obtain a large favorable vote, but fail of passage because less than half of the voters going to the polls vote on the amendments. The other amendment to the constitution pending before the Assembly is one that the lawyers of the state have sought to pass for many years. It would remove from the constitution Section 21 of Article. 7 which provides that any voter of good moral character may practice law. If this is removed from the constitution the Legislature would have the power to prescribe qualifications for the admission of persons into the practice of law.

No amendments to the constitution may be proposed while others are pending before the Legislature. VIA! KEEPS SCHOOLS CLOSED. COLUMBIA CITY. Dec. Jl.
