when necessary, the strict letter Of
the act, instrument or law, must
yield to the NANTES intent. 'IEff-
sfects and consequences Of q a con-
}struction are to be consid Tered, and
when, from a literal interpr ation,
an effect would follow contrary to-
the whole intent and spirit of the
statute, the intent and not the liter
al meaning must be regarded. Il
Whenever such intention can be.
discovered it, oought to be followed
with reason and discretion in the
construction of the statute, although
such construction seems contrary to
the letter of the statute. '' Section
i Of the act by its terms expressly
requires every receipt, stamp or lii
cense showing the payment Of the
special tax levied under the laws Of
| the United States to be registered
/ and published; i and If petitioners
contention is sound as to the con-
struction to be given section 2, then
these two sections are conflicting.
We; are convinced, from considera-
tion of the whole act, that the same
was intended to apply alike to all
persons in this state having in their
possession such receipt, whether the
same has been posted or not in COM
pliance with the federal statute. and
therefore that the act is not vul--
nerable to the objection that it lis

Petitioners last ground of objec-
ton to the validity of the law is
that it infringes section Is of the
constitution Of this state, which
guarantees Immunity from self Grim
nation We are unable to see any
force in this contention. 1t is GER
tainIy egitimate for the egislature,
under its police power, to require the
utmost publicity In this respect to
the end that a law prohibiting a
business Injurious to the public vel
fare may be strictly enforced, In

lature Is poWerless to legislate os to
the class who do comply with such
law. If this argument be sound,
then the mere fact that there exists
two classe Of persons engaged in the
business of selling intoxicating li-3
qnors in this state, viz those who
have complied with the federal law
and those who have not, makes IL
impossible for the legislature to deal
with either class. Such contention
cannot be upheld. The legislature
had a right to assume that all per-
sons engaging in the business Of SELL
ing Intoxicating liquors would COM,
ply with the federal law, and in any
event they had a right to treat such
persons in one class and to prescribe
reasonable regulations for their OBJ.
servance. If this cannot be done,
then the large number of persons
soming within such class would be
free from legislative regulation Of
control simply for the reason that.a
certain class of persons do not come
within the terms of the act because
of their violation of the federal law.
81 The argument Of petitioners coun-
sci to the effect that the act applies
only to those persons who have com
piled with the federal statute with
reference to posting the receipts for
the payment of such tax, is we think,
unsound. While section 2 of the act,
when given a literal construction,
and without considering the other
portions of the act, would appear to
sustain petitioners contention In
this respect, we think it apparent that
when the whole act is construed to-
8gether the legislative intent that the
same shall apply to all who have
paid the federal tax is apparent, and
such intent must be given effect.
That the court in constituting stat.
ute must give effect, if possible. to

as to effectuate the object sought to

elyen though such construction may
not seem warranted by the strict

No Important DEVELOPMENTS.

New York, N. Y.-There were no i'm
portant developments in the strike of
the commercial telegraphers in the
east on Wednesday. Both the strikers
and the telegraph companies still re-
main firm and both claim to be en-
tlrely satisfied with conditions.
The messenger boys of the Western
Union and Postal telegraph companies
met and took steps toward organiz-
ing a union. They are promised
charter. from the American Federation
of Labor. The boys were addressed
by several of the officers of the tele-
graphers' union and promised encour-
agement.
The telegraphers will attempt to or
ganize the clerks employed by the
companies and If they succeed will
have all branches of the employees of
the companies represented in the
ranks of organized labor.
A largely attended meeting Of the
strikers was held in the afternoon, at
which addresses were made by mem
bers of the union by T. H. Pierson,
vice-presldent of the order of railroad
telegraphers.

cIansmen Vote AGAINST Increase.

Halifax, N. S.-The Royal Scottish
clans met Wednesday morning and
the time was taken up almost entirely
with the report of the bequeathment
committee relating to death benefits.
Increase in the rates had been ad-
vocated by some of the clans and
there was a long discussion. Clan
Fraser of California introduced a scale
which would increase the rates about
25 percent. This was voted down.
The number of monthly assessments
was reduced from 13 to 12 and the
amount of assessment was increased.
An amendment offered by clan Nc
Duffe of New York that the $20,00l
insurance be abolished and that hence
forth there be no insurance over $1,000
was referred to the bequeathment com
mittee, which reported nonconcurrence
and was sustained. There Is a stronA
feeling in favor of having the next
convention in city more central to
the clansmen.
In the afternoon the delegates were
the guests of clan Mclean on a har,
Dor excursion, followed by banquet
and games at McNabs island. In the
evening the party attended banquet
given on the northwest arm by the
rowing club.

print extensive extracts from both.
The Journal Des Debats, after
sketching the powerful corporations
the President Is fighting, expresses
fear that his methods are dangerous,
saying:
THE role of the archangel killing
the financial dragon presents dangers
which man less welded to his pur-
pose would perceive. The President
has already contributed largely to the
depression from which the New York
stock exchange is suffering. Capital is
representative and may be dangerously
paralyZed by the most virtuous inten-
tions.
"The Presidents theory of central
control runs the risk of s"h"titutins
for the plutocracy demagogic social
ization.
president Roosevelt, who above
haps, failed to realize what prey he is
throwing at the feet of less disinter-
ested politicians. The leveling idea
from which he does not shrink may
impregnate the American masses, who
with the foreign influx are rapidly los
ing their old liberal American spirit.
AN evil like the trust evil should
be handled skillfully, so as not to ruin
the country. In following President
Roosevelt's attack on the trust it is
impossible not to fear that he may
overshoot the mark and justify those
who regard the President as the John
the Baptist of American demagogism,
1t already can be foreseen that the
politicians will surpass his intentions,
and Republicans and Democrats alike
will now consider it to be their duty
to assail the trusts during the coming
presidential campaign"
