Sex Equality in Finland.

ANTI-CIGARETrE LAW CoysrlTr-
TIoNAL The Supreme Court has re-
versed the finding OF the Superior
Court of Spokane and sustained he
constitutionality of the anti-cigar-
cite law that passed in the last legis
lature rs the Bycrly bill. The law
was attacked on the ground that it
was defective in title, embracing so
wide scope in some of its provis-
ions, in restraint of interstate com
merce, but the higher court held
that it was not necessarily void on
that account; that when a title is
constitutional in part, excessive
power conferred does not render the
entire act unconstitutional, unless
all parts are so interdependent as tc
defeat the intent and purposes of the
act. The court holds that the title
gives notice of the powers of the nc t,
and is not misleading because it goes
beyond those powers.

THE railroad representatives, it is
said, before the State Board of Eq ual
ization, declare they will make no
protest to paying taxes upon full
valuation OF their propcrtiesas found
by the State Railroad Commission,
provided all other property in the
State is placed at its true value.
Suits are threatened, however, if the
State board attempts to tax rail
roads on the 60 per cent ratio, unless
all other property in the several
counties is raised to 60 per cent.
The contention seems reasonable.

The EMERGENCY Has ARISEN
Roosevelt announced some time ago
that he might possibly take the
stump for Taft, should conditions de.
mand that departure from Presiden.
tial dignity. 1t seems the time has
arrived for Washington dispatch OF
the 23d says that President Roose-
welt will go just as far as he thinks
necessary to elect Taft, and may
take the stump. Managers of the
Taft campaign realize that they do
not have an easy fight on their
hands. They realize that the most
important States in the Union are
doubtful, and can be won only by the
hardest kind of campaign. New
York is by no means safe; Ohio,
while reasonably sure to vote for Taft
can yet be lost to the Republicans; In
diana, Illinois, West Virginia, Mary
land, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Kan
sas and Nebraska are all more or less
in doubt, due in many instances to
local issues or dissentions among the
Republicans. All these States are on
Bryan's doubtful list, and the Bryan
managers are planning hard cam
paigns in the States where there is
the slightest chance of success.

Loss OF BARK STAR OF BENGAL
An Alaskan dispatch received at Sc
tie Wednesday, gives an account of
the total loss of the American bark
Star of Bengal, of 1,644 tons burden,
262 feet length and 40 feet beam, by
drifting on the rOck-bound shore of
Coronation Island, west of Prince of
Wales Archipelago, whereby no lives
were lost out of total list of 1877 pas
sengers and crew. She was bound
out, under tow of two tugs, the Hyak
and the Hattie Gage. The vessel
broke into three parts and was to-
tai loss. Her value was $40, 900 and
she was rated Al by the Lloyds and
insured by them. In addition to
crew, she carried 100 Cinnamon and
Japanese, who had been employed at
the cannaries, and were taken aboard
at Wrangel. She carried a cargo of
canned salmon. The storm was SO
severe that the combined power of
tugs was powerless to keep the ship
from drifting ashore. Capt. Wag-
ner, who was among the saved,
charges the tug Captains with cow
ardice and contends that had they
obeyed the signals for relief aftercut-
ting loose from the wreck, not life
would have been lost.
