differently had he not been there, the observant eye was looking at wat was none of its business. Why make anything|east of all, a fuss-out of a little old woman standing up in a street car, and lot of sitting high school girls?
 Not much, perhaps. But it is rath- CT disconcerting to an old-fashioned person to see the reluctance to per- form acts of courtesy in young peo- pie of which this occurrence was one instance. Persons who ride much in the street cars see more of such than is pleasant. Aside from the question as to whether a man with a seat who chances to come into car, there can be little disagreement to the propo- sitio nthat this courtesy is due from the young and the strong to the elderly and the weak. And yet it is not com mon to see young person offer a seat to an older one. Sometimes the effect is rather amusing, as it was one day not long ago, when an elderly man offered his seat to considerably younger woman, while half a dozen boys and girls sat with perfectly ob- vious air of defiance against the idea that one of them should have rendered the courtesy. Possibly, somewhere, at home or at school a gentle hint to some of the young people concerning the fundamentals of a. kindly polite ness might serve as a valuable lesson. New Bedford Standard.

In a Crowded Street Car.

One rainy morning lately two long rows of high school pupils-mostly girls-occupied substantially all the seats in car in this city. When the car stopped at corner, a passenger, a little woman, old enough to be the grandmother of any of these children, and obviously not physically strong, got in. The conductor started the car, and she tottered along about half the way the cars length, where she stood evidently in danger of falling as the car jolted along. On either side of her, comfortably seated, and by no means crowded, were the high school girls healthy, wholesome looking creatures, some of whom might have been proficient in such athletics as falls to the lot of their sex. The dis comfort of the woman was apparent enough, but none of these girls moved, either to make room for her between them, or to stand and proffer her seat. A man sitting at one end of the car. discovering her plight, rose, and with the help of other standing pass engers, the woman reached the seat which he relinquished for her.
 This is but plain. perhaps bung- ling, recital of what to many persons may seem a trivial occurrence. So perhaps it was. These young women having paid for their ride, and having been fortunate enough to secure seats, may be considered as having had perfect right to retain them. The woman was nothing to them. If she selected crowded car, and had to stand, that was her lookout As for the man who came to her rescue, it is the role of men to be courteous, and why not let him? If to an observant eye, there was nothing to show that the high school girls would have acted

The Corporation Tax.

"Is the Federal Corporation Tax Constitutional" is the title of an arti- cle in the latest number of The Out look, by Charles w. Pierson of the New York bar. The subject is examined in the light of judicial decisions by high est authority on questions that lie on the dividing line between the functions of the states and of the United States. It has been held by the supreme court of the United States that the national government cannot exercise its power of taxation so as to destroy the state governments or embarrass their lawful action" Now a national corporation tax is a tax upon the exercise of franchises granted by a state in the exercise of it's independent sovereignty over matters within its own jurisdic- tion.
 It would seem, therefore, that the supreme court must hold it unconsti- tutional Such is the opinion of many interpreters of constitutional 1aw

WATERWAY IMPROVEMENT POLICY Strongly Endorsed by President Taft in Address Con-
 venton of National Rivers and Harbors Congress

Washington, Dec. S.-Strongly en- dorsing the policy of waterway im- provement President Taft caused much enthusiasm during the opening hours of the sixth convention of the National Rivers and Harbors congress here today. Hundreds of delegates, representing every section of the hall of the New Willard, where they sat under their state banners.
 Upon being presented to the assem- Dlage by Joseph F. Ransdell, president Of the congress, President Taft spoke at length. dwelling upon his interest fn waterway improvement and offered advice to the delegates upon methods for attaining the ends they seek.
 The Issuing of Bonds.
 After referring to various water way projects in detail, the president continued: "A year ago President Roosevelt and I were. together on a platform before the conservation of re- sources convention, in which we both advocated the issuing of bonds in or der that project improving water ways when begun should be completed in a reasonable time I am still a consistent advocate of that theory. I believe that the goverIment is en- titled to as rapid a method of devel- oping an enterprise and putting it through as private corporations, and ns they always issue bonds, or gener- ally do (some of them are fortunate enough not to have to), in order to expedite the completion of these pro- 6ecte, 1t would seem wise for the na- 4ion to do so where it will accomplish the same result.
 A Word of Caution.
 'But I want to suggest a word of caution. You are going to encounter tn congress great opposition to the policy of issuing bonds right out of hand. You are much more likely to get from congress a declaration of poll 1cy in the shape of declaration that 8 certain improvement ought to be ;earrded out and spread upon the min

An Electrified Tower Clock.

MT. Editor: It may not be known to all readers of The Bulletin that the steeple clock of the "old uptown meet ing house" is illuminated by electricity until 12 o'clock every night, thanks to the worthy successors in the first parish" of the founders of Norwich who do not hide their light under bushel, but let it so shine that men may see their good works. The o'clock curfew was long ago relegated to .innocuous desuetude"-to borrow Grover Cleye- lands phrase which would have aston ished his ancestors not less than the abolition of the time honored custom.

Then, when the time lcomes that political exigency shall prevent the appropriation of sufficient from the current revenues to- put the proper part of the project through the coming year or the coming two years as economy requires, then the 1ues- tion of issuing bonds will arise. would get the declaration first and not the bonds first. for the reason that you will encounter the objection of con- gress that the issuing of bonds and the receipt of the money will develop desire to be extravagant.
 Will Encounter Opposition in Congress
 "That may not meet your views, but I have thought it over and I know something about congress. I know where you are going to encounter op- position and I believe the best way is the natural way with those gentlemen. You lead them on to declare in favor of the Missouri improvement, in favor of the St. Louis to St. Paul improve ment, in favor of the Cairo to St. Louis improvement, all of which have been approved by the army egnieers, and get them recorded in the statutes of this country as declaring that those things are to be carried out and let them make their first appropriations from the revenues of the country and then you have them where they must issue bonds, unless the revenues afford a sufficient amount each year to carry that project on economically and with due rapidity.''
 The president was frequently inter rupted by applause and left the hall amid renewed cheering.
 German Ambassador Spoke:
 Count Won Bernstorff. the German ambassador, spoke of the waterways of the German empire, arousing the utmost interest by the graphic way in which he showed their importance to the commerce of Germany.
