THEY WE'RE NOT BLIND.

Discussing the Federal Constitution, its powers and limitations, The sacra- mento Bee says:
 Undoubtedly that instrument de- serves the highest respect, as a won- derfuI production of patriotism and statesmanship But its framers did not and could not foresee the invention of railroads and the telegraph, the growth of great private fortunes and the creation of huge trusts and monop- olies doing vast interstate business It was, accordingly, impossible for them adequately to guard against the evils and dangers that have arisen from these causes Had they been able to forecast the control of State governments by corporations exercising political powers unknown to the law. would not the Federal constitution have been a very different instrument2 Would not the powers of the people have been made greater at the polls. the control of ths Federal government in interstate affairs been larger and more comprehensive, and the law n1ak- ing authority of Congress less subject to nullihcation by the Supreme Court? And could 1t have been foreseen that the time would come, as Is now the case, when it virtually would be jm- possible to obtain an amendment to the Federal Constitution, would not that instrument have been made more elastic?
 Tn mentioning the things that the framers of the Constitution did not foresee, The Bee omits one important matter which they both foresaw and endeavored to guard against. Those wise patriots were not only versed in political economy but they also un- derstood human nature and had a per ception of what human ambition would lead to if unchecked. They foresaw that a time might come when the country might have a President like Theodore Roosevelt who would have a contempt for the Constitution they had framed with so much care and who would endeavor by all means in his power to disregard and set aside that instrument in order to carry out his own views and policies.
 This is what those patriots evidently saw in the future, and against which they endeavored to guard by putting in all the checks and balances their wisdom and experience could suggest. They plainly saw that if the Constitu- ton were loosely and carelessly built, full of gaps and loopholes, the time might come when a President would put his own construction on 1t and drive over 1t and through 1t at his own pleasure. Those Constitution makers may not have foreseen all that has come about since they completed their work but they were neither blind nor stupid.
 All that The Bee says about the changes which could not be forsseen is simply an argument for Roosevelt and his ways. Since The Bee became

Charles l.. of Portugal.

Charles l., of Portugal, whose throne has been seriously threatened by re- cent revolutionary disturbances in his country, was born September 2S, 1863
 He is the son of the late King Louis l.. and his Queen, Maria Pia, daughter of the late King Victor Emanuel of Italy, who still survives In fSS6 Charles was married to Marie Amelie, daughter of the Count of Paris, and three years later he succeeded to the throne of Portugal. Two children have been born to them, the eldest being the crown prince, Louis Philippe, Duke oi Braganza, who is now twenty years old The reigning house of Portugal belongs to the House of Braganza. which dates from the end of the four teentH century, Both King Charles and his Queen are said to be personally popular with thefr subjects, but The f1a- tional affairs have been so mtsFnan- aged as to bring the country to the verge of ruin. As a consequence the discontent of the people has reached a most acute stage and recent cable dis patches from Lisbon have contained the information that King Charles serious ly contemplates abdicating the throne.

Toad Holds the sleep Record.

Philadelphia Press.
 A toad which has awakened after a sleep of centuries Is wonder exhibit ed by the Geological Garden of the city of Perth. Australia.
 While the actual period of it's long dream is still under discussion by scientific men. it is generally beloved that the toad sank into Its blissful sleep long before Columbus started out to discover the New World.
 The toad was discovered by miner mot a mariner-and the alarm clock which broke it's rest was a stick of dynamite. The miner was sinking 8 shaft in a stratum~of hard cement when his pick uncovered the animal.
 He had no idea the toad was alive. for it was still inanImRte and It's eyes were transparent and without pupils. But before 1t had been in the air a long time 1t began to show signs Of life, the optics assumed the same shape as those of any other toad. and in a lit- tie while 1t was just as lively as though it had gone tc sleep only on. the previ- ous night.

 And so the RooseVeltia spreads--and nobody knows where the end will De or when or how. Clearly, Governor Co mer only wants Alabama to be in style to do as the other States are doing! !!

HIT HIM HARD.

The Oklahoma State Capital. which has been fighting the Constitution all along, winds up review of it in these words:
 It Is an odd document, written for political effect, and 1t is no certain thing that it will ever be a Constitu- tion in fact. Roosevelt will have his say. and he win have the help of the great constitutional lawyers of the country.
 Plainly The Capital exepcts Roose- welt to refuse to issue proclamation admitting the new State, and prob ably has good reasons for it's belief. If he suffers himself to be controlled by resentment or a desire to get even he will refuse to allow the State to be admitted for if ever an administra- ton received direct slap in the face it was done by the recent vote MT. Secretary Taft went to Oklahoma and made some vigorous speeches against the Constitution. advising the people not to vote for 1t, and plainly intimat- ing that it would be displeaslng to the President to have the Constitution adopted.
 It turned out that this unwarranted putting in had exactly the opposite ef- feet from what was intended and from what was evidently expected The people resented this official interfer- ence with their local affairs and the result was an almost overwhelming victory for the friends of the Consti- tuition. Not only did the Democrats vote for it but it is evident that many Republicans voted the same way as shown by the returns. So much for the attempt of the administration to interfere where 1t had no business. Now if the President refuses to allow the new State to be admitted we can feel pretty sure of at least one reason for the refusal It will be due to wounded vanity.

There ought to be a public building in Florence. The government has re- newed the lease for the postoffice there for five years.--Birmingham Ledger,
 The Advertiser has for many years thought that the United States ought to put up its own building in every town where its annual rent account is as much as two hundred dollars, For five thousand dollars a very good sized postofice building could be erected and at four per cent interest on bonds for that amount would amount to no more than rent.

BAyan and Suffrage,

Replying to a recent article of Sena- tor BeVeridge, Mir. w. J. Bryan says;
 The Senator attempts to use the ne- gro of the South as a shield to ward off the attacks of Democrats. but In 50 doing he betrays his lack of knowl- edge of the Democratic position Toe suffrage qualifications were imposed n )t because the colored man k incapable of self government but becauSA he t. not sufficiently advanced to q JVcrn thu white race. Where the two races are thrown together the question is not whether the black man is capable of administering the government under which both must live. Ln such cases, the more advanced race as a matter of self-preservation fixes suffrage quail locations in order to protect civilization.

Ia convert to Roosevsitism it has been one of his most zealous followers and Is ready to approve anything he may do or say. politically or otherwise. If 1t could have its ways 1t would have the Constitution amended so that the President now in office would find no restraints or hindrances in the way of making the national government su- preme in all respects, with Roosevelt as supreme director of the country.s affairs, In view of what is being done. and of what some are endeavoring to do. 1t is we'll that the framers of our Consultation could see ahead and guard against an autocratic administrators ambitious designs.
