Franks hand in both of his and said:
"God bless you, my boy; God bless you!

Franks other hand clutched Richard S

then Richard recovered himself. He

son for amending the constitution is that the
organic law of this nation cannot afford TO

according to wealth. The justice of that
proposition has been denied by every reput.-
able economist who ever wrote a book, and
by the laws of every government IN Chrls-

Cleveland should recommend to Congress IN
his next message an amendment of the cons

ample powers of taxation; and Congress
should, at its next session, submit such
amendment to the Legislatures of the sew

terrible earnestness and display of deep feel

ton before the court. Justice Harlan mort
ally offended the only true lovers Of liberty.
To be sure, Justices Brown and White and
even the sick-unto-death Jackson talked in
the same demagogic strain, but we arr in
vited to believe that Harlan alone of the
minority is angling for political preference.
Nothing remains to be said save that quite
as interesting as the decision itself, Or the
tremendous remonstrance of the minority
