BIG SIGN, BIG OUTRAGE.

The biggest signboard in the world, they sny,
is 10 be erected at Niagara Falls to catch the
eyes Of the millions who will flock to the Pan
American Exposition at Buffalo. It will he on
the Canadian side OF the river and will he so
big and staring that people will be able to read
1t with ease-and with execrations-from the
American side, If not, indeed from the exposi-
ton grounds. Every visitor TO that awe inspir-
ing wonder Of the world mrst therefore be pre-
pared 10 gaze not only upon the stupendous
cataract, but also upon an exhortation TO Take
Quack's Pills." or something equally incongru-
GUS. We are glad the abomination is not to be
on this side of the river, TO expose US to re-
proach for such sordid vandalism. But it is a
shame and an outrage that II shonld exist at all.
This sign will be the biggest of such out
RACES, because II will be the biggest Of signs.
But, each in its own degree. every such sign Is
an outrage. 1t Is an offence to taste and de-
cency. 1t often is an obstruction to air and
light-the advertising signhoards on the ele-
waited railroad platforms are. And it is an out
rage upon business and upon taxpayers, because
1t is profitable business that escapes taxation

Ohio-such is the meteorological report for yes
terday and the day before. What is more, TINS
sort of thing has been going on Tor weeks
When .there have not been blizzards or drencn-

taponca and Magnolia have striven to keep
their .engagements with the friends who eagerly
await their return. but have been denied the
chance Gardener farmer and botanist are in
despair.
II thus appears that n great fraud has been
perpetrated on n considerable and highly respec-
table portion of the American people. Anarticle
of weather has been palmed off on them which
is the worst kind of substitute fort cannot

this season of the year they clearly entitled

But is fully justified in secretly wondering
whether or not the North Pole has got loose
and worked its way down into Canada.
The imposition of which the people of the
North and East have been made the victims is
the more aggravating because of the promise
which March gave of an early spring. There
was more of sunshine and less of wind last
month than this. The average temperature in
above the normal in March, whereas that of
April has thus far been below. Again. the
month on whose third decade we have now
entered is curously in contrast with that Of
year ago. Up to date this season the ther-
mometer of the government observer in this
city has registered sixty degrees only two or
three times, and its best effort brought IL only
to Ga. During April 1900 the mercury mounted
TO 20 At least thrice at the same station and once
made n record of 75. Still. not only that month

ment had not brought the islands within the
Union, Mr.. Gardiner says:

Union, Mr.. Gardiner says:
IT, notwithstanding these facts the judicial
department should determine that Porto Rico
and the Philippines are integral parts of the
United States, such decision would be tanta-
mount to the integral annexation of the islands
de novo. 1t would constitute an attempt to
vert by judicial act. and in contravention of the
declared intention and fixed policy Of the politi-
cal departments Of the government an annexa-
ton sub modo into one which would be complete
and absolute. Such judicial action would practi-
cally annu the Treaty of Paris and in several
essential particulars create new treaty AS
suggested by Mr. Justice Miller If this court
could alter treaty in such respects, 1T could
annul declarations of war. suspend the levy Of
armies and become a great international arbi-
ter instead OF court of Justice for the admin
istration OF the laws of the United States"
That raises an interesting question Suppose
the Supreme Court should decide that the Fed
eral government could not he q sovere,gn of
territory held sub modo but only of territory
annexed as an integral part Of the United
states Would 1t declare the Treaty of Paris in
valid and say that the United States had no
title TO Porto Rlco and the Philippines and that
our troops were merely in occupation of foreign
countries, as they were before the treaty was
signed, or would 1t assume the function of the
political department and say that these islands
are an integral part of the United States though
the President and Congress- to whom alone are
given power TO extend the boundaries of the
United states, have said they are not? If the
court attempts to pass adversely on the treaty
as 1t stands. can it read into that treaty new
obligations for this government and make it
mean more than the treaty making power in
tended it TO mean? Assuming that the court
can make the treaty mean less and can set aside
an act of the political department. can it dis
charge the function of the political department
by performing that act over again in another
way?

FOR badges. gloves. carriages and other trap
pings and circumstances Of grief In time this
absurd old custom will be cast aside No one
objects to the tears and sorrows of our local
legislators when they desire to give way to
weeping. but it is wrong to call upon the tax
payers to meet the bills for their habiliments
of woe. If they wish to signify their sense of
ariictior they ought TO do it at their own ex-
