Senator Teller. "the grand old man
Of Colorado" surprised his colleagues
BY denying the authority of the presi-
dent the United States to make any
argeemept or contract to bind the peo.
pie Of the United States. and by ap-
pealing to the senate for some lawyer
to tell him how the chief executive
obtained such authority. The ab-
surdity Of the inference that . senator
who has 10 persistently dabbled in
public Affairs ~ Mr.. Teller had never
discovered that the second CLAUSE of
the constitution grants the president
the right and power ~ executive to
negotiate any international contract
subjsot to the ratification Of the
senate. was one to make even the
small senate pages smile. But Mr..
Teller was taking himself quite ser.
iously and doubtless assuming credit
for preserving to the senate lts sacred
rights OF treaty mating.
There 10 nothing to indicate that

his memory Of the constitution should

The man was frightfully burned, and was
taken at once to the hospital for treatment

eye was gone. the other was seriously af-
fected, and the hearing in one ear was de-
stroyed. The mans bodily vigor was a
