this act was sustained in Hannahs VS.
Felt, 10 Iowa, 141. And later act in
the same year permitted citizens of the
State in the military service to cast
their votes outside of the State of Iowa.
This act was also assailed as unconsti-
tutional. but it's validity was sustained
by this court In an opinion that was
also written by Mr.. Justice Wright. in
which 1t was said:
TO the correctness of the above con-
struction. then what is our duty I'm the
premises? The law has been passed
by the Legislature q coordinate branch
or the Government, acting under like
solemn obligations and responsibilities
with ourselves, has been approved by
the Executive, who has taken a like
oath to support the Constitution. and
we are now called upon to declare IL in
valid. If IL is so in our judgment--that
Is, IL we conclude that the infraction Is
clear. palpable and plain-then most
unquestionably 1t Is our duty to so de-
clare. We cannot forget that among
the fundamentals of the law Is the
proposition that we can declare an act
void only when 1t violates the Consti-
tuition. clearly, palpably, plainly and

conclusive satisfaction. place our finger
upon the language of the Constitution
which is clearly and palpably violated
6 Mich, 25D, and though we might
not be satisfied of it's constitutionaIity,
it is our duty to uphold the law"
The language last quoted is peculiar
ly applicable to the situation in this
case. Legislature containing many
able lawyers, and an Executive who is
himself one of the ablest lawyers I'm
the State, all acting under the solemn
obligation to support the Constitution
of the State, have passed upon the act
and we should not declare it unconsti-
tutional unless we find it clearly and
plainly so.
Finally, the allegations Of the petit
ton presented a case that left no mat
ter to the discretion of the defendants
The case thus presented was admitted
by the demurrer. and there is no ques-
ton of discretion involved in the case.
The act itself provides for q remedy by
mandamus. and we think there is no
merit in the appellee's suggestion that
the writ will not lie. The demurrer to
the petition should have been overruled.
The judgment is therefore reversed, and
the case remanded for further proceed
ings not inconsistent with this opinion.
Reversed.

Race suicide is just as conspicuous in
more so. and it is nowhere more in evil
dence than among the upper classes.
The late King of Denmark brings this
to mind. The royal house of Denmark
had died out in the person of King
Frederick VII. who deceased Nov. Is,
1863. without any lawful heirs. The
peace of Europe demanded that an heir
be found and recognized. and. there
fore, one was discovered in the person
of the fourth son of one Of the petty
German princelings, who had some re-
mote connection with the royal family.
He was as poor as only those German
princelings can be who have to support
an immense amount of aristocracy on
and his wife had been brought up to
make the utmost of every pfennig. and
the lessons they had learned in their
youth were followed throughout life.
They had a numerous family, and
brought them up in the strictest
economy. The present Queen of Eng
land was one of their daughters, and
during her girlhood she was kept busily
employed in helping provide for the
family by the cutting and making of all
the garments worn by her brothers and
sisters. The late King worked as hard
as any official i'm his Kingdom and lived
as frugally.

The experiment OF substituting Ital-
very successful on the Sunny Side plan
tation in Arkansas. where formerly only
negroes were employed. In 1898 Ital-
ians began to be brought in. and at the
end Of 1905 there were 107 squads Of
Italians with 500 working hands who
were cultivating 5000 acres, while the
negroes had decreased to SO squads with
175 working hands and cultivating but
900 acres. The Italians were raising
f03 pounds Of cotton to the acre. or at
while the negroes averaged 233 pounds
and LIZA pounds to the hand. After
the first year the Italians became prac-
tically independent, while very few of
the negroes ever succeed i'm making
both ends meet and becoming free from
debt The Italians show much capacity
for acquiring property, and of the 107
squads 104 now own 123 head of stock
aggregating 23,400, while of the SO
negro squads IL owned no stock at all,
and the remaining Il only had stock
to the value of $3.50. Every Italian
who goes into the South becomes an
enthusiastic immigration agent. and
usually succeeds i'm bringing some of his
relatives and friends to join him i'm the
new land of promise. 1t is hoped that
the presence of the Italians will be a
useful stimulus TO the negroes.
