CONFLICTING LEGISLATION.

1t is very important that legislatures
should be careful to conform to the
constitution of the state, or the organic
act of the territory, as the case may
be. OF course this applies equally to
the Congress and the Constitution of
the United States. The constitution of
the country is the supreme law of the
land and of the state is the supreme
law thereof. Any statute which con-
f1icts with il is void.
Several instances of conflict with
state constitutions are of recent oc-
currence, and show that the trainers of
laws are not always familiar with the
law which must govern their acts to
render them valid and something more
than a waste of time and energy. One
of these has created some confusion in
Minnesota.
In the charter of St Paul provision
was inserted that four of the nine mem
bers should reside east of certain
street. four west of this street, and one
in another section. The candidates are
chosen by the voters of the city at
large, and after the recent election it
was found that the Republicans had
given a majority to five of their candi-
dates, but that two of these five were
apparently disqualified by the locality
test
This was thought at first to be an
insuperable bar to their taking the
office. But on a close consultation of
the state Constitution the provision was
discovered that every person who, by
the provisions of this article, shall be
entitled to vote at any election shall be
eligible to any office which now is or
hereafter shall be elective by the people
in the district where he shall have re-
sided thirty days previous to such lee
ton
We presume that on this occasion the
Republicans were glad to adopt the
Democratic doctrine of a strict con-
struction of the constitution. At any
rate the charter provision had to sue
cumb to "the supreme law
In Kansas different kind of con-
flict occurred. 1t seems that even con-
stitution makers are not infallible, for
the constitution of that state has
singular self-contradiction. 1t provides
that the Executive shall take Office on
the first Monday in the January follow
ing his election, and the members of the
Legislature on the first Tuesday. ordi-
narily this system would result as was
designed, the Executive being installed
one day and the Lawmakers the next.
But once in half-a-dozen years the
first Tuesday in January is the first day
of the year. while the first Monday is
the seventh, and this will be the case
in 1895.
That will make very awkward case
for the Republicans, who fondly hope
to control the state after the next
election by eleeting the Governor and
the House of Representatives. The
Senate is Populist and will hold over.
Governor Lewelling who is also a Popu-
list will remain in Office till Monday,
January Z. But meanwhile the Legisla-
ture will have met on Tuesday, the
1st, and Lewelling can send in nomina-
tons of Populsts, which the Senate

POINTED LABOR, QUESTIONS.

The working people >of this country
are greatly imposed upon by labor agi-
tators, who toll most with their tongues
and spin only those yarns that come
from their lips They are the strike
promoters and they are always we'll fed
while the strikers are half famished,
and finely clad while their dupes go in
rags.
There was q, strike at a mill in Mas
sachusetts lately which was suddenly
ordered off by the leader, who had kept
the operatives out for several weeks.
Inquiry was instituted as to the cause
Of the sudden change of base. 1t was
learned that the following list Of ques-
tons was handed to the walking del
egate," who had been boasting that he
would force the mill managers to terms,
but after receiving it became very sub
dued in manner, and allowed the hands
to return to work forthwith. 1t was
this:
Who handles the funds of the strike?
How much have you drawn from the
funds?
How long have you roomed at the
Hotel Brunswick
Did your new suit come from the
strike funds?
Is it true that you paid up three
months back rent since the strike be-
gan?
Is it true that your daily bill of fare
at dinner includes broiled chicken?
Is it true that one day recently you
spent 81 in treats in saloon.
How many strikes have you been en-
gagged in previous to this?
Is it true that you only worked one
third of your time last year?
Is it true that you loafed two-t thirds
of the time last year, while your wife
worked in the mill and you carried her
dinners?
We think those questions ought to
act as pointers to organizations of
working people, and the result of their
asking should form a sufficient answer
to satisfy sensible folks

The position of our morning contem-

on the statehood matter. It faces every

course of a few months. And it takes
a falsehood as to those normals, for
the same thing as a fact about the
specials. This is not seeing double, but

The oldest steamboat company In the
world, organized in 1918, is still in
existence, and runs boats between Gin
cinnati, Louisville and st. Louis, under
the title of the United States Mail Line.
This concern built the first steamboat
designed exclusively for passengers.
She was named the Gen. Pike. 1t
took her thirty-one hours to make her
trips between Louisville and Cincin-
natl, trip that is made at the present
time in nine hours. In 1928 there were
public rejoicings at Louisville, KY,
when a steamboat arrived there in fif-
teen days and six hours from New Or
leans. The captain, answering a COM
plimentary toast, gravely stated that
the upward passage might possibly be
accomplished in fifteen days, or six
hours less than the time he had just
made. Within twenty years the pas
sage was performed in q few hours
over four days, and at the present time
the distance, fourteen hundred and
eighty miles, can be made by the fast
packets in little over three days.

PLANTS AND ANIMALS.

A Distinction That Is Based Upon False
Lines.
The reasons why plant should al.
ways be called plant, and an animal
an animal, are not always very appar.
ent. An animal is a conscious being.
l mean that it knows how to discrimi-
nate between this and that, reasons
about what is good for it, rejects what
experience has informed it is not good
for it, and has special senses. 1t is a
conscious being-indeed reasons, dis
eliminates.
Here is great gulf between the ami
NAL and the plant! Most of us are
ready to acknowledge such simple
truths, and we are all wrong, for the
differences when sifted are only tho g
of greater and lesser degree. Some
plants like shade, some like light.
Why? Well, why do we under some
circumstances prefer dark and under
others light? When we are healthy
we can digest meat, and reject, with
good reason, a meal of sticks and
stones. A carnivorous plant receives
