CORPORATION TAX uNcoNsTITu-
TuTIoNAL-

The discovery that the provision for
a corporation tax, which was attached
TO Ihe Aldrich- Payne tariff bin as an
amendment at the reported sugges-
tion of President Taft, is unconstitu-
tional, is now making the editorial
rounds. The point is urged that the
law is ex-post facto and clearly at
variance with a section Of the con-
sttution.
At the time it was proposed the
amendment was widely criticised. If
our memory is correct 1t was inti-
mated on the floor OF the senate that,
in effect, at least. the proposition
might be regarded as a subterfuge for
defeating the income tax, resolhteIy
championed by Senator CuInmins and
Ieloquently, though not convincingly,
presented by Senator Bailey The
Spontaneous approval accorded the
corporation tax by Aldrich was a cir
cumstance cited as suspicious.
1t is remarkable, of course, that
none Of the brilliant constitutional
lawyers of the senate discovered the
unconstitutionality of this provision.
And 1t may well occasion dismay that
the president should have made such
a blunder in the speciality of his sup
posed strength namely, knowledge Of
the law.
knowledge of the law, intimate ac-
quaintance with the constitution, a
.defereniial regard for it's conditions
it was this and kindred equipment
that was emphasized as fitting Mr..
Taft peculiarly for the high office of
the presidency. And the need for such
official equipment in the chief magis-
trate was vigorously dwelt upon in
view of his predecessors restive and
impetuous contempt for our great or
ganic document No lawyer was
Teddy. But If he iolted the spirit of
THE constitution il Is not of record that
he departed at any time at right an
giles from its letter. Here in the case
of his legally trained successor is
found, 1t is claimed, violation of the
letter that seemingly defies explana-
ton.
| Time withers and custom stales the
prediction greatness of Mr. Taft
lie was a progressive, but he isn't any
more Has he not read the progress
sives out OF the party? He was an
ardent square dealer, hut he isn't any
more Has he not ind0rsed and re-
tained Ballinger? He once thought
that downward revision of the tariff
could be affected by subtraction from
the Dingley schedules, but he doesn't
any more.

servant then brought mn enormous

ink beside 1t. The crafty host. with
out looking at his guest, sank on his
knees and began to draw. apparently

The drawing for land on the
Cheyenne and Standing Rock reser-
vations. in North and South Dakota,
took place Tuesday in Aberdeen.
The registration was not nearly as
heavy as had. been anticipated, the
total being 81, 456. divided as follows
among the various registration
points: Aberdeen. 55,364; Bis
marck. lO,lO6: LeBeau, 1923; Lem
mon. 2.606; Mobridge 9, O64; Pierre,
1928. The first number drawn was
by somebody from Nebraska. The
second envelope contained the name
of Calvin Bowdry, of Bismarck.
Other North Dakotans among the
first fifty who drew claims are as
follows: No. Ia. John w. Har-
grave, Hankinson; No. Is. H. E.
Goodell, Valley City; No. 80. Christ.
Stoltz, Mandan; No. AZ. Roy Sween-
ey, Cleveland; No. a.. C. F. Heath,
Dickinson; No. so. James d. Ratch-
ford, Marmarth. There are about
ten thousand claims to be drawn
for, about half of them being good
agricultural land and the other half
chiefly grazing land. As in previ-
GUS drawings large numbers of those
who drew high numbers did not file,
in this drawing an additional ten
thousand names will be drawn, and
these will be permitted to file ac-
cording to their numbers in case any
of the first ten thousand fail to
make filings that is. as many of
them as there are failures of the
original number to make entry.

Petersburg, N D., Oct. 25.
Without any Of the pomp and dis
play which might have been his as
the due Of man who had attained
one OF the greatest honors in the
gift of the nation. but with simple
services and with the real tribute of
tears Of lifelong friends, the body
of the late Senator Martin Nelson
johnson was yesterday consigned to
Mother Earth in the little cemetery
near this place. The town was
crowded with strangers-the great
men of the state-and many also
from outside points. who had come
to pay a last tribute Of respect to
the departed statesman. The great
majority of the people who gathered
at the church and in the church.
yard. however. were lifelong friends
and old neighbors. Many Of them
had come from long distances in the
country-some Is far as forty miles
driving through rain and sleet
and over roads made heavy by the
frequent rains Of the last twenty
four hours. to pay their tribute of
sorrow.
At II o'clock yesterday the re-
mains were taken from the green
room of the home. where they had
laid in state for twenty-four hours,
and placed in the Vincent Methodist
church. of which Senator johnson
had been member.
The funeral sermon was preached
by Supt. ]. G. Moore. of the Grand
Forks district Of the Methodist
church. The Rev. Moore had been
one of Senator Johnson's closest
friends for years. and. as he told of
the true nature and lovable charac-
ter of he who had been taken away,
there were few dry eyes in the audi
ence The crowd packed the church
and overflowed out into the church
yard and the street. It is estimated
that about thousand people at
tended the funeral.
The Rev. Moore was assisted by
the Rev. White. the local pastor.
The music was rendered by a nu-
merous choir and male quartet.
Rock of Ages" and the old Metho-
dist hymns were sung. They were
the hymns that had been favorites
with the senator during his years of

FARMERS INSTITUTE.
Letter from Prof. ttoverstad Re.
garding the Important Education.
al Gathering In Linton Next Thurs.
day, Nov. 4th.

Prof. Hoverstad writes as follows
to the editor of the Record, under
date of Fargo. Oct. 25th:
Dear Sir In cooperation with
your county superintendent, Prof.
Hanson. we have scheduled an insti-
tute for Linton on Thursday. Nov.
4th. So far as know. this is the
first time Linton has ever had an in
stitute. Prof. Hanson will take
charge of all of that work which re-
lates to the corn contest and the
part that will relate to the school
work. The program for the insti-
tute will be made up during the
meeting. We have not, as a rule
made out any program before the
institutes were held. We feel that
it is a wise plan to first consult the
farmers and learn what the local
conditions are. When we have
learned this it is an easy matter to
make out the program. We shall
have speakers enough so that al.
most any subject the farmers are
interested in can be discussed.

and by his son-in-law and private
secretary, S. G. Skulason. and by a
large party of distinguished North
Dakota statesmen and friends of
the dead senator.
The party was met at the station
by . great delegation of fellow
townsmen of the departed, and the
casket was taken in charge by the
pall-bearers. Followed by hundreds
of citizens, with hats removed and
bowed heads. walking slowly behind
the casket, the remains were taken
to the home of the johnson family.
The casket was placed in the green
room." the sleeping-room of the
senator. There the cover was re-
moved and the body laid in state,
that old friends and neighbors might
take q last view.
This morning floral offerings be-
gan to arrive at Petersburg from
all parts of the state and from many
points outside of North Dakota. and
the body lies amidst great profu-
sion of flowers and floral designs of
all kinds. One Of the largest offer
ings came from Fargo; but the
name of the donor or donors is not
known. 1t was great box of the
costliest cut flowers. Friends and
i1eighbors have also sent their trib-
ute Of floral offerings, both individ-
ually and from groups of Borrowing
fellow-tOwnsmen.
Final arrangements for the fune-
raj were made to-day. Although
offered a public funeral by Sergeant
alarms Daniel M. Ramsdell, of the
United States senate. as is custom
ary on the death of senator, Mrs.
johnson and the other relatives de-
cided to have the remains laid to
rest without the pomp and display
of an official funeral.
The services will be held to-mor-
row afternoon at l O'Clock in Vim
cent Methodist church at Peters
burg. Supt. j. G. Moore. of the
Grand Forks Methodist district, as
sisted by the Rev. H. E. White, of
Petersburg. pastor of the Vincent
church. will conduct the services.
Interment will be made in the Pc
tersburg cemetery, which is a half
mile east of the town of Petersburg.
The following-named prominent
gentlemen will act as pall-bearers:
