of South Dakota, formerly a Kinks

lowing: 1.-The farmers of the
Northwest have under the present

sheep and wool decline one half in
value, a reduction in the price of
butter and eggs, threatened in
vasion of Mexican horses and
Texas cattle, with a general pros

protective tariff as at present. The

sire to return to that policy

When a Man Becomes OF Age.

The question sometimes arises
whether man is entitled to vote at an
election held on the day preceding the
twenty-hrSt anniversary of his birth.
Blackstone, in his commentaries. book
l, page 1853, says: Full age in male
or female is q years, which age is COM
pleted on the day preceding the ami
versary OF a persons birth, who, till
that time, is an infant, and so styled in
law" The late Chief Justice Shars-
wood, in his edition of Blackstone's
Commentaries, quotes Christians note
on the above as follows: IF he is born
on the 18th day of February, 1908. he
is Of age to do any legal act on the
morning of the 18th of February, 1929.
though he may not have lived twenty
one years by nearly forty-eight hours.
The reason assigned is that in law
there is no fraction of one day and the

Washington, May 6.-Dr. GuZman, the
Nicaraguan minister has not been ad-
vised up to o'clock today of the re-
ported revolution in Nicaragua. He
has expected that the sailing Of the
British fleet would have a quieting eff.
feet on public sentiment. The expecta-
ton wa. strengthened when word came
that Viye Admiral Stephenson fired a
salute to the Nicaraguan flag when il
was again hOisted over CorintO yester.
day. This courtesy was regarded a.
doing much to heal the wounds made
by the incident. DR.. GuZman's last of
fetal cable said simply: Ships sailed.
In other quaters the fact that the re
volution Is along the east shore is re-
garded as significant. This is the Mos
quito region in which British influence
has long bee ndominant and which has
recently been created state under the
name Of Zelaya. II has been appre.
hended by Central American diplomats
that if the Mosquito natives made trou.
BILE 1t would afford opportunity for fur
Their British intervention. One Of the
best posted diplomats from that sec
ton says he considers il inevitable that
the Mosquito natives will rebel and at
tempt to restore Chief Clarence to the
throne. This would be a denial of Mic
aragua's sovereignty over the new state
Of Zelaya, and in the judgment Of this
diplomat, Great Britain would support
Clarence.
