Des Moines, March 22.-At the meet
ing of the state executive council
Wednesday. Treasurer of State John
IIerriott submitted a plan for the as
sessment of the railroad property OF the
state according to fixed mathematical
formula. His resolution provided that
the total assessment be fixed at $4,000,
600 which is an increase of about So
100000 over the assessment of last year.
He seems to have taken no considera-
ton of the $40 miles of new roads. He
proposes that the council discover the
valuation of the railroad property by
taking Il per cen. Of the sum OF .he
gross and net earnings
This system. II adopted, will make an
Increase of more than s2,50O,0e0 for the
Northwestern, about s2.5oO.O00 for the
Milwaukee, and will leave the o. at its
present status, and will reduce the as
sessment OF the Rock Island about $780,

Special to Times Republican.
Ottumwa, March 22.-John Helm. a
miner employed in the Star coal mine,
southwest of the city, was almost ill-
etantly killed by a fall of slate. Her
man Cravatzo, who was working in the
next room, heard the slate fall. and
upon going into Helms room found an
enormous chunk of slate lying upon
Helms body. 1t IS supposed that Mr..
Helm was standing under the slate
when it fell and that it struck him on
top Of the head, forcing him into a sit
ting posture with his head between his
knees. A large cut on the head and
some other small bruises on the face
and other portions of the body We're all
the external evidence of the result Of
the fall of slate, but it is thought his
neck vas broken and that death was
instantaneous.

MIR. Harrison made IL vsrv clear that
he believed along with Mr.. Littlsiisld
of this state, and mir. MCCALL Of Massa-
chussUts, that the imposition OF tariff
on Porto Rican exoorss Co this country
and imports from this country into
Porto Rico was Unconstitutional, ana
the fact that we gave oil the money re-
sulting from this tariff back to the island
made no difference.
In concluding his remarks he suggest
ed this sentiment "God forbid that the
OF man as q consnm sr should absorb that
grand old doctrine that man is q Gre
alton OF Go1 endowed with inalienahle
rights"
Inc doctrine held by ex-President Har.

most of the Republicans of thu Senate
and House OF Representative, though
several of them have expressed virtually
the same sentiments. Whether his doc

OUR NEW POSSESSIONS AND THE
CONSTITUTION.

Ex-President Harrison has just deliv-
cred a notable address at Ann Arpor
on ''Ihe Status of Annexed Territory
and OF its Civilized Inhabitants, In
which he considered the question OF the
relation of the Constitution to our new
possessions-the question which the Su.
preme Court OF the United states will
hear legal arguments upon today at
Washington. MIR. Harrison promised his
observations on this subject by the state
msnt that our legal title to Porto Rico
and the Philippines was sound and would
stand every test of international law.
1t is not our title to the islands that Is
in dispute, he said, but the status OF their
citizens. A treaty he held to be a part
or the law in the same sense tha6 an act
of Congress is and not as the Constitu-
tion Is. II, therefore, the Constitution
leaves the subject open as to whether
the people of Porto Rico shall he citizens
after annexation, then the President and
Congress may deal with them as they
see lit. II the Constitution has left no
such controversy then the Constitution
must stand, no matter what the treaty
may say. After laying down these alter
native propositions, MIR. Harrison said,
There arc two views to be taken: First,
that all goYefnme ntal powers are dele
gated by tine Constitution, that equal
taxation applies to every man and wom-
an within the nations sovereignty; Sec
ond, that the term United States defines
only those regions and people within the
organized states, and that the government
OF the Territories il an absolute gov
eminent and not constitutional, and
we are under no obligation 60 trsat as
citizens those living in the Territories
