THE PREJUDICE CRY.

Gratis 70" Stirring up race prejudice.
Evidently the democrats are stand
ing for something or there would
not be such a howl about pre-
judice. "
The facts are the democrats are
the ones who have a specific set Of
principles They demand that the
two races shall be separated in
schools and in railway coaches.
That is called prejudice" They
demand that the constitution shall
not be written by the corporations.
That is Stirring up prejadice."
They demand that the initiative
and referendum shall be made
part of the constitution, that "ar-
raying the masses against the
classes" is "demagogery" and a
part of the campaign OF of"prejudice."
The Indians are crying out
againstthe republican party because
of the wrongs the party has done
him. Allied with the democratic
party they are demanding that the
restrictions be removed form the
Indian lands. and the coal lands be
protected from the CRATER. This
is stirring up race prejudice. "

citizens of Ryan and vicinity Tues

the political issues as regards the

made a mastery and logical speech
on democratic principles and why
the constitutional convention should
be controlled by the democrats.

celebrated case = few years ago the

tied States could not levy an income
tax but no authority except the
TuttIe Times has ever denied the
power Of state to levy such a
tax. The constitution Of the state
Of Virginia provides specifically that
the legislature may levy an income
tax and other states have similar
laws, but under the decision Of the
Times. they will doubtless have to
cut'em out or be "whooped up"
for it and possibly. be thrown out
Of the union. 1t is readily seen that
the decision Of this learned Justice
is for-reaching in its effects.

that the federal Office holders who

great" constitutional" question.
The learned legal luminary Of the
Tuttle Times, discussing the candi.
dacy Of Mr.. Hayes, who advocates
an income tax provision in the
state constitution. gravely asserts
that Ito incorporate an income tax
provision in the state constitution,
under the light Of the supreme
court decisions, would be TO place
our constitution in a position to
cause it to be jeopardized. Let us
do nothing to jeorardize our chance
Tor statehood by placing in our
constitution such a provision as an
income tax"
The Times has indeed made a
great discovery. Just think what
might have happened If this faith
ful Watchdog of the constitution
had mt been on guard. We might
have gone right ahead and adopted
income tax provision, and then
after all our years OF travail and
anxiety over statehood, the whole
thing would have been spoiled. But
the Times has saved us and in do
ing same has brought to light an
original discovery. It has found
something in the constitution Of
the United States which no jurist
from John Marshall down had dis
covered. 1t has found clause
which says that no state can levy
an income tax and it says the deci-
sion of the supreme court so holds.
In the constitution which we
studied as a school boy there was
a clause which said, Congress
shall have power to lay and collect
duties, imposts and excIses-but all
duties, imposts and excises shall be
uniform throughout the United
States. And there was another
clause which said. mo state shall,
without the consent of Congress
lay any duties on imposts or ex-
cises etc" and there was not an
other single prohibition on the
power Of state to levy a tax. In
