The constitutionality of the act was questioned by State Treasurer Kay, who pointed to the constitutional provision that all state institutions must be lo cated In Marlon county nnl otherwise authorised by vote of the people.

There is, therefore, no act ion which you are called upon to take Id the matter at this time. "The question of the validity of the statute may be raised waiu it comes to insur any expense on behalf of the state of Oregon to be paid from such appropriation, and it may be that It will be ad visable to present the matter to the supreme court to have the question settled.
