the act seems to have been loosely drawn,
intentional or otherwise, aud when the
supreme court first passed upon its
validity and reached the result then an
nounced relieving rental revenues from
its operation, the warmest advocates of
fair play turned from the whole subjec
in spirit of chsgrin and disgust. At
the time of the former decision six of the
eight judges held that so much of the act
as imposed a tax on rents of real estate
was unconstitutional. 1t is a we'll settled
rule that when any portion of a statute is
unconstitutional, and when that portion
is so interviewer with the other portions
that it can not be believed that the legis-
lature would have enacted that portion
Individually, the entire act is unconstitu-
tlonal, therefore little surprise was felt
at the decision of the court in declaring
the whole act void and imperative.

we'll known it was incorporated into the
tariff act in the last moments of congress;
was fought to finish by the gold and all
the other trusts and their representatives
in office, and became law, or what was
thought to be law by the people, without
ever having received the presidents sig
nature. Thus it was bastardized from
the beginning. However, notwithstand-
ing its ignominious defeat, the principle
is just; it is Democratic, and it will some
day become law at the hands of the
peoples representatives, so binding and
effective as to defy all the power the gold
trust may muster.

about twice the cost of the drainage canal

the INCOME TAX ACT,

The tax dodgers and the gold trust
have got rs grabbed" If anothing was
lacking to demonstrate this fact it came
yesterday when the supreme court pro-
claimed unconstitutional the income tax
act of the last congress. The intent OF
the law was good, for it is a fact patent
to every citizen who cares to post him
self on the subject that under existing
laws the burden OF taxation rests upon
the poor people Of the land. The man
with moderate property pays dollars
in taxes to support good government
while the rich man, the man of influence,
who enjoys pull, political or otherwise,
pays dimes; and the object of this law
was the equalization of the burden. But

The New York Morning Journal scored
the greatest news SCOOP" of the year on
its metropolitan contemporaries in the
income tax case. On the 10th of May the
Journal printed double-leaded dispatch
from Washington in which it was stated:
"The decision on the income tax law by
the United States supreme court will be
adverse. The law will be declared I'M
constitutional in its entirety" Evidently
the new western management of the Jour
nal has sources of reliable official lnfor-
nation at the national capital that are
away ahead of its competitors.

IT is easy enough now to account for
the action of the bond syndicate in rush
ing their gold to the United States treas
ury last week. They had information as
to the probable nature of the decision in
the income tax case, and scented in the
air another government bond issue.
Surely the gold trust is up to snuff.

urde- Recording Device.

A new invention for use on board snip
10 now being shown by John Davis and
son of London, in the shape of the
Tbompson & Marsden patent recorder.
This is a. machine to be attached 10 the
Indicator posts of steam vessels Tor re-
cording indelibly and at once every or
der as il is given by the master from the
bridge to the engineer below. ms IN
strument while in no way interfering
with the action of the indicators as III
use at present, acts as silent and ac-
curate witness and recorder or every
action of the Indicator. The recorder
consists of a drum which revolves once
i'm twelve hours, the motive power being
supplied by an English eight-day clock.
Round the drum a chart is PLACED, which
is renewed at 8 A. NJ for the day watch
and S +. NJ. for the night watch. The
chart contains a column of all the words
of command printed within horizontal
lines, which 'un it's whole length. Neru-
cal lines divide and suDdivide the chart
into hours, quarters and single minutes.
and as the space allotted to each minuted
measures 1-S-inch, the eye can easily SUB
divide this into smaller fractions or
time. A metallic pencil rests upon the
chart. and by simple mechanism is con-
nected with the existing indicators in
such a manner that the recording pencil
is moved up and down by the action OF
the indicator. The practical operation OF
the recorder on the chart is three-foid-
the precise moment is shown at which
the signal bell rang; the time al whlch
each order was given and what that or
der was; and how long each order re-
manned i'm force without alteranoh.-LoE-

Type-Setting Machinery.

A revolution in type-setting machinery
is announced, says London Invention.
The machine, which is an English inVen-
ton. will, il is claimed, increase the speed
of composition siX-fold. In dealing with
ordinary type. it is said to have none OF
the disadvantages inherent in the ma
chimes new on the market for the same
purpose. as it affords the usual facilities
for correction and alteration Of matter.
Another machine. which is expected TO
revolutionize type-setting, is described
by NJ Mazereau. According TO the IN
ventor, the Rev. Pere Calendoni. a Sici-
liam Dominican, it can compose oo'VO let
ters per hour, a task equal TO the labor
Of thrty-sX compositors the difference
in speed, az compared with the existing
machines, lies in the fact that instead oil
each letter being made to fall separate
ly into the composing stick. entire words
can be composed in an instant by
the Simultaneous application of the nm
GERS of both hands. Nj. Mazereau states
that he has himself manipulated the IN
strument ON a small scale with complete
success.

Easter. It's Eggs and Legends.

As Easter represents a new birth into
the best Life Of all. It Is easily seen how
the pagan i1ea that the egg was the be-
ginning of all kinds Of life, should become
purified in the minds of the Christians,
ana accepted as the typical offering Of
good wishes and emblematic Of pleasant
hopes. between believers Of the glad East
err day The egg in some form o. other
has been the urquestloned type Of the
new life from the very dawn Of the
Christian era.
In Russia as early as 1889, eggs colored
red IMPLYING the blood of Christ shed IS
an atonement for our sins were the most
treasured Of exchanges at Easter. Every
believer went abroad at this season with
his pockets We'll supplied with Easter
eggs. as the society man Of to-day attends
to his we'll filed card case. When two
Russians met Tor the first time during
the Easter holidays. If they had not met
on the day itself, the belated Easter COM
piments were passed, first by solemnly
shaking hands in silence; then the elder
Tor the younger if he out-ranked the
elder would say, The Lord is risen"
and his companion would reply, 1T is
true" then they kissed each other and
tremendously drew from their respective
pockets the Easter emblem, and exchang-
ed eggs.
The Chinese claim that the world was
formed of the two parts Of an enormous
egg. From the yolk Of the egg stepped
forth the human being whom they call
Poon-koo-Wopg; he then waved his hand
and the upper half of his late castle, the
egg shell. went upward and became the
concave heavens Of blue. the lower half
fell reversed, making the convex earth.
and the white a1bumen became the seas.
The Syrians believed also that the gods
from whom they claimed descent, were
Matched from mysteriously laid eggs
Hence we infer that our present custom
OF offering the Easter egg emblem has
the heather legends for it's origin; in fact
all our most precious festivals come down
from similar sources, but purified with
the light Of Chrstianity.-Keziah Shelton.
