that being the mode required for
amending the National Constitution.
When three -forths of the States ratify
it then it becomes part OF the Con-
stitution. And if so ratified it would
settle the whole question OF liquor
making and selling as drink. Here
tofore it has been argued that the law
or action rather of one State cannot
bind or affect the law or action, or
now action rather of another State.
Or in other words, that Congress
alone has the power to regulate COM
merce between the States, and that
this liquor business is commerce"
There certainly therefore can be no
reasonable objection to Congress re-
ferring the subject to the Legislatures
of the States, no more than there
could be to the Legislatures referring it
to their several people for vote there
on:
The following is the proposition
now before Congress, and which oil
good citizens would be entirely will
ing to see submitted to the Legisla-
lures of the several States as amend
ment to the National Constitution:

Every dollars worth OF labor value

is not Offset by the declaration that
there are more goods in the imported

protectionist is rather strengthened
by such specious presentation of the
matter, because the question is then
instantly forced upon every intelligent
man. How can American labor earn
dollars if the industry in which he is
experienced is tranferred to foreign
lands.
The theory ofprotection, advocated
by the Republican party, is the un-

Goats on the Farm.

A good many farmers who are
doubtful OF the future profit from
wool growing are inquiring about the
Aurora goats AMI the probable value
of their fleeces. We have always insis-
ted upon the wisdom OF holding on to
the sheer, which are clearly OF more
value, on the farm than any other
kind OF live stock except hens. We
would strongly urge farmers who have
sheep to keep them, ard especially to
refrain from taxing goats in place OF
them. The market for mohair is ex-
ceedingly close, only two dealers in
the United States handling it to any
large extent; while only four manufac-
turers use it in any considerable guam.
tity. Moreover, the goods made from
this fibre are becoming decidedly un-
popular and are being largely displac~
ed by wooden fabrics. Goats flesh is
not popular as mutton, although a
young Kid is often used as as lamb
without being discovered as such by
the consumers. Hence 1t is scarcely
wise just now to discard sheep for the
very much inferior goat.

A Righteous Ju dgment.

Considerable oommotion has been
created in insurance circles by the
recent decision of the Maine supreme
court in the case of McGlinchy VS.. the
Fidelity and Casualty Company.
The facts in the case are these: While
person insured under an accident
policy was driving on public street.
his horse SHE'D at a load OF leather
and ran a short distance without up.
setting the carriage or coming in con-
tact with anything before he was
brought under control by the driver.
But the driver was apparently en-
dangered at the time, and suffered SO
severely, either from fright or from
some strain caused by his physical
exertions in restraining the horse,
that he died within an hour, appar-
emily from heart disease, no mark of
external violence being visible. 1t
was held by the court. "that the death
may be considered as having ensued
from bodily injuries effected through
external violent and accidental
means. The clause in the policy which
provides that the insurance shall not
extend to any bodily injury of which
there shall be no external and visible
sign upon the body of the insured
does not apply to fatal injuries, but
only to those not resulting in DEATH"
The organs of insurance companies
are naturally exercised over this deci.
sion, by which the defendant company
was defaulted, and have much to say
anent this remarkable construction"
put upon an important clause in &C.
cident policies. But whatever view of
the matter may present itself to
the legal mind, it cannot appear
otherwise to unprecedented laymen
than just and equitable; for in
this instance death Was clearly the
result of accident, indirectly at least,
and such hair splitting is ridiculous
as should declare the insured entitled
to receiver under his policy in case he
toppled over and rubbed off a square
inch of cuticle, and that though his
internal belongings were shaken to Jelly
he could get nothing. To be sure, a
strict construction Of the reading of
the policy might lead to this conclu-
sion, but it seems to us that the
court was correct in injecting into it's
decision modicum of common sense.
Insurance policies, it is needless to
say, whether they be issued by life or
fire companies, are SO wOrded as to
give all possible means OF escape to
the companies, while seeming to pre-
serve the rights OF the holder in every
possible way, and they should there
lore 0e construed in the spirit in
which they appear to be framed rath-
er than in the language which keeps
the words OF promise to our ear and
breaks it to our hope-K. of H. Re-
porter.

A Submerged Forest.

Scientific American.
During the late violent storms in the
Channel the sea washed through a
high and hard sand bank near the
Isle of st. Malo, France, nearly four
meters thick. laying bare p ortion Of
an ancient forest which was already
passing into the condition OF coal.
This forest at the beginning OF our era
covered an extensive tract of the
coast; but with the sinking OF the
land it became submerged and cover
ed up by the drifting sand. Mount
Saint Michel once stood in the middle
OF it. The forest had quite disappear
ed by the middle of the tenth century,
Occasionally at the very 10 " tides after
storms, remains of 1T are disclosed
just at present. 1t is believed that
some centuries ago the highest tides
rose about IL meters above the level
OF the lowest ebb. Now the high
water level is 1876 meters above the
lowest.
