QUALIFICATIONS OF SENATORS

QUALIFICATIONS OF SENATORS.
A discovery has been made down
at Fargo that Senator Cashel, Sena-
tor Duis, Senator Purcell and other
candidates for the senatorship to sue
coed the late M. N. Johnson are dis
qualified because they were members
of the last senate and are at pres
ent senators. The claim of their dis
qualification is made under that Sec
ton of the constitution that declares
that the governor shall not appoint
them to civil Offices during the term
for which they are elected.
If we mistake not, the discovery is
that of something which it not so.
The constitution and laws of the
United States provide the qualifica-
tions for the office of United States
senator, and the state can neither
take nor add to these qualifications.
The constitution of the state, in so
far as it does not accord with the
constitution Of the United States, is
not effective. And the Unitel States
senate is the complete judge of the

, 'There was good deal OF news" he
said, "such as shootings and knifngs,
but this news was not regarded as Inn
Iportant, AMI little attention was paid
to it. l remember once, when a local
feud broke out afresh, when members
Of the opposing sides met at the coun-.
ty seat. There were hot words, Z
blow was struck, and weapons were
drawn, when the sheriff interfered.
He loudly announced that he would
not tolerate any violence, ordered the
parties to separate, and when his or
fders were not obeyed he began shoot
ing. I forget whether he killed eight
or nine, but l know that in describing
the incident in my paper l commend
ed the sheriff for bis prompt action
and bravery and added the paragraph,
There is no doubt but for the prompt
action of the sheriff there would have
been bloodshed.' 49, a.. e. l.

qualifications of it's own members.
SO far as it seeks to provide quail
fications for officers created by its
own constitution and laws, the state
is entirely within it's right and pro-
vince. When it goes outside Of that
sphere it's enactments are of no eff.
feet. Nor is it likely that the Office
of United States senator was within
the thought of the constitution max
ers when they passed the section re-
ferred to.
If any of the gentlemen mentioned
should be named for United States
senator he would be entirely qualified
and have the right to hold the Office
and enjoy it's privileges and emolu-
ments.

responding period a year ago. Not
all of this gain can be credited to the
act which was recently passed. That
law was not signed until August 5,
so that for FIVE weeks of the current
fiscal year the Dingley act was in
operation. Moreover, the improve
ment in general trade, which has had,
for one of its consequences, an in
creased demand for foreign goods,
and which has sent imports up to
high figures, accounts for some Of the
expansion in customs. AS new tar
iff act, however, is always less 3ro-
ductive in its early months than it is
later on, the exhibit which this law
is making is very encouraging to the
country.
The treasury deficit il the fiscal
year which ended on June 30, 1909,
was $98,000,000. From present indi-
cations it will be cut to $4,000, 900 in
the twelve months which end with
June, 1910. Possibly it will be re-
duced to s60,OoO,OOo. The appropri-
atoms for the current fiscal year are
much larger than were those for the
year which ended nearly four months
ago. The expenditures thus far have
been so much greater than were those
of year ago that, despite the big in
crease of revenue since July l, the
treasury shortage for this period is
only $1,000, 900 below that of the cor
responding time last year. Almost
all of the increased revenue comes
from customs.
The excellent account which the
Payne act is giving of itself is one
of the reasons why it will not be tam
pered with. Another reason is that
business demands a rest from. any
further disturbance. From the meet
ing of the Republican Convention in
June, 1908, when the party pledged
itself. to revise the tariff, to August,
1909, when the pledge was consum.
mated, trade was in suspense. 1t did
not know where the tariff changes
would strike, or how hard they would
strike. For this reason business was
slow in pulling itself out of the
slough of despond into which the set
back of the closing months of 1907
and the opening months of 1908
plunged it. When the bill was sign
ed, however, and trade was enabled
to take a look ahead and make its
contracts with confidence, pronoun-
ced step forward was taken. The
business expansion since August 81
has been much greater than it was
in all the previous months since the
acute stage of the collapse in the
latter part of October, 1907. So far
as regards the Payne act, '.let well
enough, alone is counsel hich con-
gress will take especial care to heed.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known TO
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
" upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have 30
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for

MONTHS OUTPUT

Between 4,00O,0 900 and 4,5O0,0 900
pounds of copper, with the probability
that the latter figure will be the nearer
to the mark when the month s reparts
are filled out, were made by the Neva-
da Consolidated and Cumberland Ely
during April.
These figures are Appropriated from
the number of cars of ore ship
ped from the mines and the number
of cars of copper bullion shipped from
the copper platform. Also estimate is
made from the number of cars put on
the concentration ~trestle, these showing
that exclusive of the reserve in the
bins the concentration handled about
10000 wet tons during the month, a
splendid record, particularly so in view
of the fact that during the month the

finished in the mex few days and will
enable the handling of a still larger
tonnage during the present month.
Shipments from the mines during the
month averaged about 80 cars a day,
400 tons a day, or about $4,000 tons
for the month, the record production
for any single month in the eleven that
production has been under way. Of
this total about 5000 tons of carbonate
ore was shipped to Garfield for the use
of the smelter there. The balance eth
er went through the McGill concentrat-
or or is in the bins there. Nevada Con-
solidated from Copper Flat produced
an average of better than so ears of
ore a day, the balance coming from
Cumberland Ely's Veteran mine. This
month 5000 tons of ore may be looked
be from Copper Flat steam shovel ope-
rations, as Cumberland Ely is working
up to the capacity of its concentrated
sections, while the Nevada Cons new
er sections are picking up a little more
ore daily with the aid of the second
deck of Wilfeys and the additional
Garfield mills.
At the concentration marvellous prog
ress is being made with the erection of
the equipment of the fourth unit. The
work will be finished by the Hughes
Construction Co. in less than half the
time required for previous units AMI
at a great deal less cost. The job being
