The quorum counting question has come
up inconclusive-y in the Senate. Mr.. Sher-
man stated that it was his opinion that
even the rule adopted BY the House of Repre-
sentatives was in exact accordance with the
rules Of the Senate and with the Constitution.
Mr.. Blackburn asked: "Will the Senator
answer, does he, in the face of the rules under
which this body has acted, hold that 1t is
within the power of the presiding officer to
recognize as present any Senator who, under
his obligation as he CONSTITUTES it, thinks that
he has no right to vote?" But Senator Sher-
man replied that he would rather not answer
it then, as another question was pending. His
previous remark is construed as an acceptance
of the House practice as distinctly applicable
to the Senate without change Of rule.

The veto by the President of the Dallas,
Texas, public building bill offers suggestion
of value to the trainers of such measures which
for their own peace Of mind and continuance
OF pleasant relations with their constituents
they should heed The bill provides s2OOOOO
or las much less as may be necessary" for The
erection of the building and the Presiden e
veto is made on the ground of excessive amount
and the suggestion is made that he might not
have vetoed bill fixing the amount at sl0O, 900.
1t is known fact that public buildings never
cost less-with two or three exceptions pos
sibly-than the maximum limit of the approp-
ration and the hint to the cities needing pub
lie buildings is TO ask in their bills only the
amount which can be proved to be required.

There seems to be some confusion in th'

There seems 10 be some confusion in the
public mind with regard TO what was actually
decided by the Supreme Court Of the United
States in the Iowa prohibition case, q sum-
mary Of which has already been printed in
TEE srAr. The language Of the court IL that
''the plaintiffs, citizens of Illinois, had the
right to import their beer into Iowa and had
the right to sell it, by which act alone it be-
comes mingled in the common mass Of prop
erty within the state. Up 70 that poin. Of
time, in the absence Of Congressional permits
sion to do so, the State had no power to inter-
fere by seizure. or any other action in prohibi-
ton Of importation and sale by the non-resi-
dent importer" This right is construed ap-
parently by the minority Of the court to cover
all sales made SO long az the article shall re-
main in the original package. II this inter-
probation be true all that the outside brewer or
distiller would have to do would be to send his
goods into the State having prohibition act
to some person in every place where liquors
are consumed or desired who, as his agent,
could sell in the original package to any who
wanted to buy. Thus the law could be en-
ffrely eyaded, and the State deprived COM
pletely of the police power OF preventing the
sale OF goods considered injurious to the
public. Other commentators upon the de-
cision construe the statement that the goods
are mingled with the common mass OF the
goods OF the State after the original sale by
the outside dealer as a substantial limitation
upon sales within the State. 1t Is not
stated so clearly that there is no room tor I'M
certainty how far the outside dealers right to
sell in the prohibition State extends in order
that his right to send goods into the State may
not be deprived Of substance, or when, on the
other hand, the imported goods become part
Of the mass of the goods Of the State, over
the sale Of which the latter has control.

Following the precedent OF the tunnel
e1tortion Congress might reason that the
Congressional library building, which in its
capacity as national legislature it has author
lied, will furnish q great public library Of
immense benefit to the people of Wash
ington, and in pursuance Of this idea
it might attach to District appro-
priation bill an amendment imposing half
the cost of the structure, some three million
dollars, upon the District. If thereafter the
si1-million-dollar structure should through the
fault Of the agents of the government building
il collapse into ruins before it was used for
library purposes, and the exaction Of one-half
its cost were still enforced against the people
OF the District who had not asked for the work.
had no control over it and derived no benefit
from it. the case would be no worse than the
outrage upon the water-takers in the tunnel ex-
action.
