Excerpt from Report of the Committee on Submission and Address to the People Submitting the Proposed Revision of the Present Constitution of Michigan, 1907
The assessed wealth of the state has increased from less than thirty millions in 1850 to more than sixteen hundred and fifty-four millions in 1907 - figures which forbid comprehension. The city of Detroit contains a larger population today than did the entire state of Michigan in 1850. The marvelous growth of the intervening years is thus portrayed and emphasized. By reason of this growth and transformation the constitution adopted fifty-eight years ago naturally admits of beneficial revision and material amendment.
