M'KINLEY BILLINs SUPREME COURT.
Tho Attorney General Submits . Brief
for the United States.

for the United States.
WASHINGTON CITY. Oct. 2L-The brief for the
United states in the cases of certain importers,
IN which the copstitutloDality OF the Mckinley
tariff law is involved, has been prepared by the
attorney general. The appellents contend that the
act is unconstitutional because of the omission
OF the tobacco rebate clause in the bin as signed
by the president after IL was agreed 10 in con-
ference, and because it contains the bounty and
reciprocity provisions Concerning the first
contention the attorney general traces the
course OF the law through both houses,
Its approval by the president and
deposit with the secretary of state
This ID the most appropriate evidence Of which
the court may take judicial notice in consider
ing the existence and contents OF the law, and
II complete and regular, is not impeached by
the entries upon the legislative journals or
other evidence inconsistent Herewith. In the
ease at bar the journals do not show any discrep-
ancy between the bill passed and approved.
Conceding, however. the attorney general says,
that the tobacco rebates section was omitted
from the bill after passage and before approval
by the president as alleged, this fact would not
render invalid the remainder OF the BILL which
did pass both houses and was approved by the
president, for the reason that the rebate section
and approved bill were separable ard indepen-
dent of each other.
Concerning the sugar bounty clause, the
attorney general says it was for the purpose Of
encouraging the production of raw sugar in this
country. Counsel, he says, assign the increase
OF duty upon woolens and cottons to the neces-
sity for additional revenues TO pay the sugar
bounty. There Is warrant for this assertion.
The question OF the validity of the bounties is
a. old as that OF the protective tariff, and has
been answered in the same way by constant
legislation and aequiescence OF the people 1t
IL as old as the nation itself. which has sane
toned both direct and indirect bounties
The reciprocity clause, the attorney general
says, could not have been intended to increase
the revenue. Its conditional operation pre-
cludes any such idea. 1t is wholly independent
OF any other clause In the bill and its passage or
failure to pass, had no bearing whatever upon
the passage of the remainder. The clause is
constitutional. 1t is not delegation of legisla-
tive power to the president. but it is only legs-
lative direction by which the alternative pro-
vision OF existing law is made applicable TO the
happening OF facts, the existence Of which is to
be determined by the president.

The Brooklyn Tabernacle.

ftdnA W. Carpenter.
Leaving the house we then walked
around the block to the Brooklyn Taber-
nacle. 1t is the biggest church in the
United States and is one of the finest
churches in the world. Its tower of red
brick and stone rises 100 feet from the
ground, and its four corners have columns
which remind you of the beauties of the
kutab Minar. Its entrances are of stone
richly Carved. and it covers more than half
an acre of ground. Standing in the gall
lerIes, the scene below makes you think
of the Coliseum at Rome. and the great or
gan which stands opposite you is one of the
largest ever made. 1t has four banks
of keys, 100 stops and appliances, and its
pipes number 4.500. DR. Talmage stands
on platform with no desk or pulpit in
front of him, and he addresses here an
audience of 900 souls every Sunday. The
church was almost completed while DR..
Talmage was IN the Holy Land. 1t was
started after he left New York on that
tour, and its cost has been up To this time,
$4,000. II Is the third church which DIR.
Talmage has built IN Brooklyn, and il is a
monument worthy of his genius.

The announcement that the Adams Express
Company has instituted snit against John Hoey
for million dollars, OF which it claims that he
defrauded the corporation of which he was
manager, is a surprising illustration of the
viciSsitudes OF fortune. Nearly half a century
ago John HOey became one of the carriers of
the express company which Alvin Adams had
established under the name of the Adams Ex-
press, in $50. By energy and assiduity he rose
to be the New York agent OF the express, and
subsequently when the head Office OF the COM
pany was removed to New York he became its
manager. He was employed in that capacity
when, In 1919, he married a popular actress of
the day, whose name WAS Mrs. Russell. His
salary was small, and his wife remained on the
stage after her marriage; il was as Mrs. Hoev

OUEsTIONINGs: DOUBT.

OUESTIONINGS: DOUBT.
In this quick age, when many men
Are eager for ''new light"
When all the walks OF life have seen
investigation might;
The mind. too ready to forsaks
The old accepted ways,
Oft grasps a cheaper substitute
Than ruled in olden days.
How many times we toll and climb
Far up some shining height,
Only to find imagined gold
Delusiye mica bright.
Just so, the low, false creed of doubt
May lead the mind astray,
Because il borTows much the light
OF "questiong's" pure ray.
True "questionings," IL followed up,
Will always lead to light.
They are ordained by God to be
Forerunners OF the right
But doubt, which bids us disbelievs
All things we cannot see,
Will end as il began-in grief
And blank uncertainty.
We well may question mahy things
That wear the mask of truth;
That have been, even to this day,
Accepted without proof.
But let US not reject belief,
Until some higher creed
Than that which We held before.
Can come to fill our need.
So shall purer, truer light
Be guide unto our goal;
A noble purpose ever dwell
In heart and mind and soul.

piled the divine, ''the striving after strik-

or to create stir, it is wrong. But if
sensational preaching is the sensation
arising from the presentation of truth. il
Is right. Truth is always surprising. and
nightly preached, 1t ought not to fail 10
create a sensation. The opponents of such
preaching are often men who are as heavy
IN their remarks as a load of bricks. They
are too lazy or too dull To rise out of the
commonplace, and they often vegetate or
die OF the dry rot. You ask as 10 pulpit
