The story of Toledo Cathedral.

The cathedral of Toledo is perhaps
the finest architectural glory that
Spain can boast. The site was occupied

having been erected during the life
time of the Virgin Mary and visited
by her. OF this church we know Moth

1882 The third was finished in 1888
and was occupied by the Moors for
many years as Il mosque. AftcrWard
it was the cathedral OF Spain. until in
the early part of the thirteenth century
Alfonso IN. had it pulled down and the
present one erected i'm its stead. 1t

The Reformer has all along main
tanned that the license law ought to be
amended by its friends. 1t is under
stood that the supreme court will de-
clare the law unconstitutional, and the
faulty clause is said to be section 81,
the last part of which eXempts cider
and native wines manufactured within
the state from the action of the first
part, which is prohibitive of unlicensed
sales, thereby discriminating against
cider and naive wines manufactured
outside the state. 1t is further said
that the court proposes to hold that
the unconstitutionality of the last part
of this clause involves the whole
clause, and if so, the whole law is in
involved, as this clause is the key
note of the whole law. The Conland
bill, framed by the friends of local OPP
ton, avoided this difficulty by making
the cider clause a separate clause as
in Massachusetts, where a similar
clause was held unconstitutional with
out affecting the whole law. If this
action of the supreme court Is cor
rectly rumored, it evidences the sense
of the Reformer's theory, which is
shared by many other friends of local

The Campaiun Thus Far.

The presidential campaign of 1914
presents a striking contrast to that OF
1896, when the whole country was
stirred from top to bottom by feeling
of alarm. Today, with election less
than a month distant, the people are as
apparently undisturbed as if it were
already settled
Apathy in Vermont was generally
admitted, although an unusual effort
was made to arouse interest. The re-
suit surprised everybody. Apathy in
the whole nation may result in the
same way, and it may not. There IS
nothing in the outlook that should
give the republicans the confidence
they claim to have. Leslie's Weekly,
a partisan republican paper, warns
against over confidence.
The democratic argument is directed
mostly against the republican nomi-
nee; the republican argument accepts
the challenge and retaliates by attack
ing the democratic principles. The
people at heart are not afraid of the
unsafe president" nor are they con-
WINGED that Alton B. Parker is other
than an honest, courageous, capable
man. The rank and file do not feel
deeply against either of the candidates.
The issues are not sharply defined:
The proposed national policies of the
two parties differ rather in degree than
in intent. There is nothing in them to
arouse enthusiasm. The people know
that the country is not going to the
"demnition bow-wows" anyhow.
