THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENTs.

An Atlanta lawyer, Robert L. Rodg-
ers, thinks there is a probability that
all of the amendments to the state
constitution are void. and that those
which are to be voted upon at the
approaching election. if adopted.
will be void, because of the
fact that they were published
by the Governor and Secretary
of State instead Of by the officers of
the Legislature. The law provides
! that the Legislature shall cause the
amendments which it adopts to be
published in one or more papers in
each congressional district.
The question which Mr.. Rodgers pre-
sents is this: Does this mean that
the President of the Senate and the
Speaker of the House shall order the
publication of the amendments or that
the Governor and the Secretary of
State shall cause them to be published?
It would seem OF course that it meant
that the President of the Senate and
Speaker of the House should cause
them to be published. But may not
the Legislat ure authorize the Governor
and Secretary Of state to have them
published? Mr.. Rodgers meets this
question by quoting that section of
the constitution which provides that
executive officers shall not perform the
duties of legislative officers.
There seems to be something in the
question which Mr.. Rodgers raises.
but we cannot help thinking it must
have been raised and settled when the
first amendments to the constitution
were submitted to the people. 1t is
hardly probable that the Governor and
Secretary of State would have gone
on all these years since the adoption
of. the constitution of 1877 publishing
constitutional amendments that were
to be submitted to the people without
ample authority for their action. There
is a chance, however that they have
been acting in the matter without au-
thority. But, if they have, would that
fact make void the amendments that
have been adopted? That is a ques-
ton for the Attorney General. 1t
would seem to us. however. that the
adoption Of the amendments by the
people would cure any defects in the
proceedings by which they reached
the people for their approval or dis
approval.
If there is anything in the point
made by Mr.. Rodgers, the Governor
and Attorney General will doubtless
take notice of it. It isn't likely, now
that the question has been raised, that
these officials would pass it by, since
the people are soon to vote upon
amendments adopted by the Legisla-
ture at its recent session.

THE RACE ISSUE AND THE CAM
PAIGN.

The Washington Post expresses the
opinion that those Southern papers
which are endeavoring to work the race
issue into the campaign are making a
mistake, for the reason that that issue
| II it should become prominent, would
/ drive more voters away from Judge
/ Parker in the doubtful states than it
1 would bring to him. There are good
/ reasons for thinking the Post is right.
1t is a fact of course that there is a
plank in the Republican platform which
calls for a reduction of representation
/ in states which have deprived the ne
/ gro of the ballot but the Republicans
/ are not saying much. il anything.
about it. and, as we pointed out when
| the platform was adopted, the purpose
/ Of It doubtless is to satisfy the negro
voters in the Northern states. As long
as the Republican party doesn't seem
! disposed to press the race issue there
| is no good reason why the South should
The purpose of the South should be
to help make effective the issues that
promise to make votes for Judge Par
ker in those Northern states which the
Democratic party is endeavoring to
carry. 1t would he a difficult matter to
make the class of voters the Demo-
Gratis want to reach in the Northern
states in a. cst;on understand the race
question They have their own views
in regard to it. and they are erroneous
views, as a rule. The more NJ. Roose-
welt is attacked in connection with that
issua. however. the less likely they are
TO cast their votes against him. There
fore the wiser plan is to let the race is
sue alone. unless the Republicans make
it prominent and become so aggressive
that a defense is necessary.
But these Independent voters in the
doubtful states don't believe it would
he wise to elect Mr.. Roosevelt Presi-
dent at least they are questioning
the advisability Of electing him because
of his characteristics. Therefore the
South should use whatever means it
has to assist them in reaching a con-
clusion that he isn't safe man to put
in the White House.
The Republicans themselves are ad-
hitting that Mr.. Roosevelt is the real
issue of the campaign, and they are
doing what the can to convince the
voters that he isn't the sort of man
he is represented to he. The burden of
their speeches in the Vermont cam
paign for state officers, which ended
last night. was that instead of being a
man eager for war and conquest he was
about the mildest-mannered man in
public life, and that instead of disre-
garding his constitutional limitations
he was a most careful observer of them.
There is undoubtedly in those North
ern states which the Democrats are
seeking to carry much more to be ac-
complished by presenting the Roose-
welt ehara cteristics in their true light
than there in by discussing the race
question.

The way of politician was illus
trated by Senator Dietrich of Ne
braska, who was asked by a friend
in New York as to how he was get
ting along. "Well," replied the Ne
braskan, "the men whom / gave po-
sitions when 1 was a Governor still
call me Governor. Those whom 1 have
helped since I was elected to the SEN
ate call me senator. The rest all call
me that damn ingrate' I guess I am
doing as well as the average"

Twain,s jumping Frog Beaten.

mark Twain's jumping frog was n
cipher compared to the frog Burt Kim
ley exploited up in our town a few
years ago." observed former Supervisor
Sutphin, with a far-away look in his
eyes, after Chairman Beebe had told
about one-legged dog that could clear
ten feet at one bound without losing his
balance, says the Rochester Post Elk
press. Your speaking of the dog
brought it TO mind. l don't know but
that Burt got his idea from Twain's
story, but his frog was certainly a
wonder.
Burt introduced him to a party of
farmers at a horse fair. where I was
one of the judges. He told how the
frog could jump and got the crowd in
terested and as some of the farmers
knew about what the average frog
could do they simply laughed when
Burt declared his pet could jump thirty
feet in one bound.
q" I tell you what I'll do, Burt volun-
teered old Tabe Haskens, L won't bet
that your frog can't beat any critter we
can produce. but I'll bet two months
work that he can't clear no thirty feet
on level. OF course, if you put him
on top of a house he could jump thirty
feet down and hit hard pan. but it
might spoil the frog
sell about the wager. He meant just
what he said. The frog was to jump
thirty feet on a level and be none the
worse for the trip. He promised to
produce him on the next day and the
two men agreed that the loser should
work two months for nothing. Let me
in an that DEAL begged another tiller
of the soil. Burt said he was willing
the work to be paid on demand. Then
another came forward and another
and by the time Burt had quit betting
he had pledged the next four years of
his life in bondage if he lost on the
wager.
ON the next day of the fair a big
crowd gathered around to see the frog
beat the record. Thirty feet were
measured off and Burt got youngster
just one trial. Burt explained to the
boy that he must hold the frog tight
until the fatal word was given and
then release him.
''Then the frog was placed in position
and Burt went down the line a distance
of thirty feet. and holding out his
hands cried come And the frog sim
ply sailed through the air and lighted
in his hands. Well. the crowd was
struck silly with amazement.
BE kind enough to report for work
tomorrow, Mr.. Haskens," commanded
Burt stifiy, as he pocketed his pet and
walked off. Haskens was on deck as
per agreement and worked six weeks
before he discovered how the trick was
turned. 1t seems that Burt had filled
the frog UP with steel shavings and
had held mighty magnet in his hand
when he told the frog to come to him.
OF course Mr.. Frog was simply snatch
ed down to that magnet flying. Then
Haskens quit the job, declaring that
the frog hadn't jumped on the square.
but had been changed from frog into
a flying machine
