 Johns undertaking stamp bill, af- fixing enormous and practically pro- hibitive licenses on trading stamp houses, was called. The former argu- ment that the bill was one for revenue and could not be called within five days of the end of legislative sss- sion, was raised. Senator Miller con- tended that 1t was not revenue u.eas- ure. but a police regulation which sought to eliminate the business; Sem ator Thomas contended that 1t was a revenue measure. citing the instance of a local case decided in the Supreme Court: City of Montgomery vs. Kelly. to prove his contention.

LINEN MARKET PRAcTL
cALLY RARE OF GOODS


NEW YORK, April l4.-The results
of the heavy curtaiiment IN linen I'm
ports last year have not been over
ocme. The present heavy demand
started up with the market here, prac
tically bare of goods. Importers
placed orders for early spring 1909 de
livery in a cautious way, although
every indication pointed strongly to q
heavy call for linen fabrics during the
spring and summer months. When the
cuttIng-up trade and retailers firmly
began to come into the market fol
goods, nearly every buyer wanted de-
liveries at about the same time. Stocks
in importers and jObbers' hands soon
became exhausted and manufacturers
abroad could not turn the goods out
quick enough to meet the demand.

Cabinet Vetoes

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Time has
w scored another victory. President
Taft and his cabinet, after mature de-
liberation, have decided not to en-
croach upon his prerogatives or ques-
tion his right to run the clocks of the
government. Whatever distress may
have been caused the old man by the
suggestion that the government could
regulate its clocks and run them with
out regard to the rising and setting
of the sun was removed the other day
when the cabinet formally decided
that 1t would not attempt to interfere
with the well established routine of
affairs.
The federal clocks will continue to
tick out standard time and Father
Time. with absolute confidence, can
depend upon their accuracy.
The federal employe will not be re-
quired to set his alarm clock to COM
mence work with the rising of the
sun. nor will he be free to gambol on
the green during the hours OF early
afternoon. His allotted toll will be
performed during Office hours which
have long been established.
While it was generally admitted by
