WHEREAS, At the biennial session of the legislature of this state for the year 1SS5, an amendment to the constitution of this state was proposed and agreed to by a majority of the members elected to each of the two houses, which proposed amendment was in the following language: Resolved by the Assembly, the Senate concurring, That section 1, of Article 10, of the constitution of the state of Wisconsin, be amended so as to read as fol- lows: Section 1. The supervision of common schools shall be vested in a state superinten- dent and such other officers as the legislature shall direct. The legislature may prescribe by law the qualifications of the state superintendent, and all other officers intrusted with the supervision of common schools. The state superintendent and such other officers in- trusted with the supervision of common schools, shall be chosen by the qualified electors of the state, or respective districts, at such time and in such manner as the legislature shall provide. The powers, duties and compensation of all such officers shall be provided for by law.
AND WHEREAS, The foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution of this state was duly agreed to in the legislature of this state, chosen at the general election in November, 1886, by a majority of all the members elected to each house thereof; therefore
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. The foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution of the state of Wis- consin, shall be submitted to the people of this state at a general election to be held on the Tuesday next succeeding the first Monday in November, A. D. 1888; and if the people shall approve and ratify such amendment by a majority of the electors voting thereon, such amendment shall become a part of the constitution of this state ..
SECTION 2. The form of ballot in voting to approve and ratify such amendment shall be: "For the amendment to section 1, of article 10, of the constitution." And the form of ballot against such amendment shall be: "Against the amendment to section 1, of article 10, of the constitution." Such ballots shall be separate and apart from any other ballot, and shall be cast in separate boxes to be provided for that purpose; and all persons quall- filed to vote at any election in this state shall be deemed voters on this question.
SECTION 3.
