RIGHTS OF THE STATES.
(San Francisco Chronicle.)

(San Francisco Chronicle.)
There is no doubt that q federal
constitution adopted today would
differ in many highly important re-
spects from our present fundamental
law. and the recognition of that fact,
the dread of a general unsettlement
of almost everything and the feeling
that no general revision which might
be proposed by a convention could
be adopted by the requisite number
of states have prevented and are like
ly to prevent the calling of federal
constitutional convention. 1t also
seems to be the accepted belief that
no single amendment which could
get through both branches of con-
gress would be adopted by three
fourths of the states The result has
been the development of what seems
to be systematic effort to get the
equivalent of constitutional amend
ments by judiciaiiy constituting the
constitution as it stands to mean
what everybody knows 1t was never
intended to mean. by which some
think 1t is very necessary that 1t
should mean in view of the changed
conditions of society. Congress en-
acts law. or the treaty-making pow
err makes a treaty or the executive
issues some administrative order
which is evidently not warranted by
the language of the constitution. re-

OUR SCHOOL PROBLEM.

The public school matters are at
tracing n good deal of attention. In
some quarters the board of trustees
appear to be very unpopular. 1t
seems to be a tempest in teapot
The board is evidently doing too
much or not enough to satisfy some
people. All will come out in the
wash. however, and when the "iaun-
dry is brought home" the dissatisfied
ones will probably be better satisfied
than they appear to be just now. In
the meantime the school trustees are
persuing the even tenor of their way
and looking after school matters to
the best of their ability. Whether
the ones who are taking such a deep
interest In the public school now
have any well founded cause for
complaint or whether their trouble is
only imaginary, remains to be seen.
Bids for the building of new
two-story brick structure that will be
a credit to Ely and the public school
system of this state were to have
been opened today. but will be held
up until Tuesday at the request of
the Ely Commercial cub, who want
to know what the intention of the
board is.
In the meantime September is
close at hand and Is quite likely to
be here before the present trouble is
over. If the public schools don't
convene in Ely in September it will
not be the fault of the trustees. Ely
does not seem to be any exception to
the rule of other districts. Reno is
Just emerging from bitter school
fight. Eko seems to be sailing in
troubled waters. Ely is just now in
"a choppy sea" of discomfort, but the
News thinks the complaints filed are
without any foundation In fact. Keep
the pot red hot, pile on more fagots
and possibly every parent in the dis
trict will wake up to the fact that
they owe something to the school
system and will take more interest in
school matters than districts usually
take.
The legal phase of the situation at
the present moment appears to GEN.
ter on the point as to whether the
limits of the Ely school district ex-
tends to the territory of Georgetown.
II it does. we can see no reason, le-
gally or morally. why the SO or 60
school children there should not be
provided for out of the appropriation
board of school trustees will perforce
have to recede from their present po-
sition and we have no doubt but what
they will do so gracefully. There
has been no intimation up to the
present time that the trustees are
DESTROYS of oyerstepping their bounds
or that they have any intention to
do other than their full duty to all
concerned.

UNREST IN INDIA NOT
REALIZED IN EUROPE

After three recent tours in the
most disaffecfed districts of Bengal, l
am able to say definitely that the
serious nature of the situation Is
hardly realized by Europeans In 9TH
err parts of India or at home.
Whereas a. few. years ago such dis
content as existed was confined to q
few pleaders and clerks. the disaf-
lection has now spread not only
among the landholders and Bengal
aristocracy, but among the peasants
and coolies.
| interviewed many Europeans,
both official and non-official, and the
missionaries in various centers and
all agreed that the disaffection was
the result of a campaign of sedition
directed from Calcutta, the agencies
employed being not only the press
and the platform, but the active or
ganization known as the National
Volunteers, which has local branches
In almost every town and village.
These volunteers are being trained
in archery and the use of sticks and
swords by well-paid professional In
structors. They preach everywhere

How the Pendulum Was Found.

Like many OF the commonest me-
chanical instruments in daily use, the
Invention Of the pendulum Is due en-
tirely to chance. Galilei, when under
twenty years of age, was standing one
day in the metropolitan church Of Pisa
while some painters were at work on
the ceiling Of the church. A suspended
lamp which was hanging before the al
tar was disturbed In! some manner, and
the scientist was struck with the al
most perfect regularity with which 1t
swung back and forth. The idea of
measuring time by such an instrument
found instant generation In his brain,
and he completed the system in use to
this day.-St. Louis Republic.

A Soft Answer.

A canny Scot was being shown over
q man-o'-war for the first time in his
life and, being interested in all he
saw, piled his guide with all sorts Of
questions The marine seemed par-
ticularly to interest him, and, going up
to one, he pointed to the grenade" in
the marines cap and asked what 1t
was The marine looked at him in

Scot impatiently, ~ was no AKIN

The Lint of Life.

The most eminent medical scien-
lists are unanimous in the conclusion
that the generally accepted limitation
of human life is maRy years below
the attainment possible with the ad-
vanced knowledge of which the race
is now possessed. The critical PERIOD
that determines it's duration, seems
to be between so and SO; the proper
care of the body during this decade
cannot be too strongly urged; care
lessRess then being fatal to longevity.
