been made in the Missouri legislature. \
bill 10 regulate the size Of headgear
woman may wear ''in any theater, opera
house, hall, lecture room, or other public
place of entertainment, amusement. or
instruction where an admission fee is
charged" has been introduced The bin
provides that any person wearing in such
place hat big enough to "obstruct the
vision of patrons, or any patron of the
house, may be summary elected by any
peace officer" that the wearing of the big
hat shall be a mjsdemeanor and the wear
e. upon conviction shall be fined so or
less in the discretion of the court The
bin is alleged TO be modelled upon the or
dinance of town in the southwestern sec
ton of the state, from which the big
theater hat has been eliminated by the
police. a prominent ST. Louis lawyer is
quoted as saying there is no doubt that
such = law would be constitutional.

The Income Tax Goes"
From the New York Tribune (Rep1

The Senate has passed the bill providing
money for the collection of the income

one time that tho process known as

respects this feature of the urgent def
cheney measure 1t now remains for the
courts to pass upon the question whether
or not the income tax is constitutional:

"Out of fifty men who have been I'M

during the past ten years not one has

sentative Mccall the other day. He is
the author Of a bill the purpose OF which
IS to take contested elections out of the
House and into the courts for settlement
The statement which is undoubtedly cor
rect, emphasizes the pretty well known
fact that partisanship and not merit is
the basis upon which most election cases
are settled in congress. At the same time.
there is not the least prospect that Mr..
McCalrs bill! will be passed.
West Virginia recently adopted the pro
gressive sentence system of Furnishing
thieves. similar TO the Ohio law com
mented on in these columns few days
ago. one day last week a black man was
convicted at NIartinsburg of stealing
few pounds of cotton waste from a rail
road car. The value of the waste was prob
ably fifty cents. The culprit had been to
the penitentiary twice before Under tho
law the third conviction for theft carries
with it the sentence of life imprison-
ment; so the prisoner was sentenced to
the penitentiary for life for stealing a few
handsfuu of waste. 1t is thought the gov
ernor will pardon the man and recommend
to the legislature that the law be re
pealed.

An Interesting Question.

The republicans of Philadelphia have
raised the question as to whether x-Gov.
Pattison. who has been nominated by the
democrats of that city for mayor, is eHgi-
BILE The point they make is this: A man
to be eligible TO the office of mayor of
Philadelphia must have been a resident
of that city at least five years prior to his
election EN.-Gov. Pattison was a resident
of Philadelphia at the time he was elected
governor, and had been for many years
In fact, he was born and has held office
there. After he became governor he re-
sided in Harrisburg. and qualified as a
voter there. The republicans hold that the
fact that he qualified as a voter there
shows that he regarded that city as his
place of residence during the last few
years
The democrats contend that the con-
stitution of the state provides that man
does not lose his residence in one city if
his duties as "A state officer require him
to temporarily reside in another city of
the state, and that the fact that ex.-Gov
Pattison qualified as voter In Harris
burg. where his duties required him to
live while discharging those duties, is by
no means conclusive evidence that he gave
up hts residence in Philadelphia.
The lawyers differ as to whether or not
he lost his residence in Philadelphia. The
weight Of opinion appears to be that he
did not. He certainly returned to Phila-
delphia Immediately after his term as
governor expired, thus showing that he
never intended to abandon his residence
in Philadelphia.
The republicans would like to make it
appear that he is Ineligible. They are
afraid he win be elected, Notwithstanding
their large majority.

The committee in charge of the late
Goethe-Schiller festival at the Pavilion
has not been able to present com plete
statement of the finances of the venture.
The committees and societies in charge of
the booths are still strengthening up their
accounts. 1t is now believed that the
profits will be nearer $4,000 than 1000, as
was at first expected.
The magnificent scenery and decora-
$500, were auctioned off by W. T. Hess
for trifie, only $125 being realized. The
lumber was reserved, and will probably be
sold to the managers of the coming horse
show. Most of the paintings and canvas
were sold to Friedlander, Gottlob & Co. of
the Columbia Theater. The stage settings
went for Sc so to the manager of the Mis-
sion Turn Verein Hall.
