A CURIOUS SITUATION.

There is a curious situation in Con-
necticut over the repeating Of a law
by the arbitrary action of the governor.
Some days ago the legislature passed a
bill reducing the tax on savings banks
deposits from one-feurth 10 three
sixteenths of one per cent. The statute
had been earnestly desired by the saw
ings bank companies and they rejoiced
greatly at its passage. The same day
that il went through the house, the
senate having already passed it. it was
sent to the governor and signed by
him.
Fifteen minutes later the governor re-
ceived a message from the house stat
ing that it had reconsidered the vote
by which the bill was passed and ask
ing him to return it. The executive
promptly scratched his signature off Of
the statute and returned it to the
house, thus repeating a law that had
been formally made part of the Con-
necticut statutes. The house, having
received the measure, postponed further
action on it indefinitely, which has the
effect of killing it.
Now comes an interesting point. Did
the governor have the legal right to
scratch his name of of the bill? Did
it not become a law as soon as he
signed ii? If he could, by scratching
off his signature after fifteen min
utes had elapsed. nullify the act, why
could he not similarly nunify an act
year after signing it? The lawyers
of Connecticut are discussing the point
with considerable interest, some taking
one and some the other side of the
question.
1t is practically certain that one of
the savings banks will refuse to pay the
old tax, rendering the tax fixed under
the disputed law, and so bring the mat
ter before a court of competent iuris-
diction for adjudication. The outcome
OF the matter will be awaited with in
terest, not only in Connecticut but
elewhere about the country,

FARMERS AND SPECTATORS.

The day may not be so far distant
when the spectators on the board c.
trade viii be asking congress to pre-
tect them from the wiles of the farmer.
For example, the farmers of the Red
River valley got together not long ago
and gave the Chicago wheat gamblers
a sharp lesson ia high hnanciering. The
Red River valley wheat crop. it must
be understood, is taken by tho specu-
lators as a barometer of general wheat
conditions.
This fact was known to the farmers
Consequently, when they agreed to send
out reports to the effect that the crop
there WAS fun of rust. chinch bugs and
other evils, they knew IL was a moral
certainty that the price OF wheat would
advance With the report they sent in
buying orders for all the money they
could scrape together. The expected
happened. Wheat advanced sharply
and the farmers promptly sold. Then
they concluded that such a good thing
was worth working at least twice.
They caused TO be disseminated after
they had acquired a line OF Short
wheat a report that the Red River
crop would be a bumper, as, indeed, it
WAS. The report naturally caused a
drop in the price When the figures
had dropped low enough 10 give the
farmers a comfortable margin of profit
they bought, made their deliveries and
got out OF the game. A wall has gone
mp from the board of trade about the
uureliability of the farmers. Some
brokers put IL even more strongly. They
say they were deliberately robbed by
their country cousins.
The farmers, however. can afford to
be careful They occupy the rather
unique position Of being able to laugh
both first and last. And it 1t is to be
hoped that they will stay out of the
wheat market for a time except as they
have legitimate wheat to sell. If they
don't the spectators may be depended
upon to get back the money won by the
farmers with interest. Your honest
agriculturist may be able 70 turn one
or two shrewd tricks, but he doesn't
possess anything like the package
owned by the average Spectator.
Meanwhile all OF US can afford TO
smile at the discontinue of the
gamblers. They We're beaten at their
own game.

THE UINTAH OPENING.

Land Commissioner Richards is GER
tainly not sitting up nights devising
methods of inducing citizens 70 register
Tor land allotments on the Uintah reser-
walton. Mr.. Richards almost conYiuces
US that 100 acres Of ground on the reser-
walton wouldn't be worth walking
across the street to acquire in fee sim
pie. We are inclined to think he ex-
asgerates the situation.
1t is quite true that all of the land
On the reservation is not good land.
Much of it is very much poorer than
land that may. be acquired cheaply
enough through application to the state
land board. But, even after the In
dams have been given their choice
after the reclamation service has had
its slice, there is going to be a chance
for some hOmesteaders to acquire high
class property on the reservation.
Mr.. Richards says a great many peo-
pie are going to be disappointed. This
is natural, People are bound to be
disappointed when, as seems likely
now. there are a thousand applicants
for every prize. The proportion. in
deed, may run considerably higher than

And regardless of disappointments,

the opening Of the reservation will be
a good thing for Utah. 1T will attract
TO the state many bona fide settlers
who viii cultivate and develop farms

able value of the state will be increased
in exact proportion to the value of the
land and the contemplated improve
ments, for the land is not now subject
TO taxation for any purpose.

since yellow fever had a foothold in the
south but. within the memory Of many
men and women who are still young,
the southern statesahave been desolated
by it. For period of weeks in the
seventies the only sounds heard in the
streets of Memphis and other cities in
the fever belt were thu wailing of the
stricken and the rumble of the death
carts. IN the eighties there was an
other outbreak although its proportions
were not SO great.
The late George Z. Waring, probably
the greatest sanitary engineer of his
time, was called upon by Memphis 10
come and devise a sewerage system
that would aid i'll the prevention of yell
low fever. Colonel Waring responded.
Sewers were built according 10 his
plans In Memphis and elsewhere about
the south and IL is certain that they
proved effective. 1t is a strange CO.
incidence, by the way, that Colonel
Waring, who did so much to check
yellow fever. at last fell a victim to it
himself. dying IN New York after con-
tracing it in Cuba.
There is not the faintest possibility
of contagion in the north. At the times
when the fever was at its most virulent
heights in the south IL never spread
extensively north of the Ohio river.
Although there were a few cases here
and there north of the river the dis
ease never gained a foothold. Nor viii
il do so this year We have, indeed,
every confidence in the preventive
measures being taken in New Orleans
and other southern points. Rigid
quarantining, absolute cleanliness,
careful diet and the determination Of
the fever-carTying mosquito viii keep
the plague within bounds and eventu-
ally wipe it out.

PAD SOUTH HAVEN.

At this period when the people from
one end Of the country to the other
are stirring themselves in favor Of Sun
day observance and of sitting on the
lid it is somewhat shocking to read
of the public meeting held in the city
OF South Haven, Mich, last Monday
night. The gathering was called, not
to urge the mayor to close the saloons,
resorts and places of business on sun
day but, mark you, to denounce that
official for closing them.
According to a dispatch from South
Haven to the Chicago Record Herald.
Fiery resolutions were passed con-
denning the action OF the mayor and
sheriff in closing places of business on
Sunday. Friends of the mayor at
temped to sidetracl1 the resolutions by
Offering an amendment, but this was
voted down, the original being adopted
with a hurrah.'' If the meeting re-
fleets the sentiment among the citizens
of South Haven the mayor is a ruined
man unless he Immediately authorizes
a wide-open Sunday again.
And yet the mayor is only doing his
duty. If the law did not forbid the
opening of saloons and places Of bust
ness on Sunday he certainly could not
close them. AS mayor he is sworn to
enforce the Law. The South Havenites
are. therefore, placed in the position OF
denouncing an official who is only do
ing his sworn duty. They are saying
to the world that they would rather be
known as lawbreakers than as respec-
tiers Of the law. It, is a position I'm
which few communities would care to
be placed. The sympathies of most of
US will be with the mayor.

One day at the suggestion of my druggist I took a bottle of Paracamph to try. The effect of it's use was magical. I got relief at once, and after using three or four bottles I believe am perma- nently cured.
