Ths sixteenth amendment.

The Sixteenth Amendment.
Alabama. which comes first on the
roll call OF national conventions, is
ala tirst In passing the Income taA
amendment TO the federal constitution.
II her unanimous approval Of the
measure is any criterion the amend.
ment is certain to be adopted. An.
other favorable omen IL that no change
in the constitution has ever been pro-
posed by congress that was not ra'i
fed by the states. The method vt
amendment laid down in the cons,i
tuition itself requires Il two-thirds vote
In b0th houses of congress and an af.
firmative action by the legislatures OF
three-fourths of the states. In the
case OF the income tax the vote in the
two houses of congress was practically
unanimous. An additional good omen
forthe success of the sixteenth amend
ment to the constitution has been
brought out in a canvass made by one
Of the New York newspapers. the re-
plies from governors, chairmen Of po-
litical committees of both parties and
leading editors having been over
whelmingly in its favor.
1t has been forty years since the
last amendment to the constitution
was proposed and thirty-nine years
since its adoption. AS matter of
fact there have only been about FIVE
changes in our national charter, the
first ten amendments having been vir-
tuany agreed to by the constitutional
convention itself and having been
adopted en- bloc soon after AS ap-
proxinately 100 years have passed
since%the instrument went into effect,
it is thus seen how few and slight the
alterations have been. Hardly great
er example of stability is to be found
in the history of nations. which is all
the more remarkable because of the
popular character of our institutions
and the consequent instability that
! fact is usually thought to imply.
The right of congress to levy an in
come tax was evoked during the civil
war and was never questioned until
1895. when Ivy five to four vote II
was declared unconstitutional by the
supreme court. The present proposed

Plague Spots In Cities.

Z When Governor Glenn dilated upon
the evils of cities in q recent Chautau-
qua address he struck popular
chord. Most big cities are a menace
to the country about them, and few
are menace to the nation ut large.
The thinking people Of the cities do
not need to be told this, and the pee
pie outside are painfully aware that
the truth is never and never can be
told. This is not saying that the moral
level Of the country is superior to that
Of the city and that the evils Of the
city cannot be matched in the distant
mountains and on prairies where nc
taint of the city ever reaches.
I. But the evils in the city are more OF
menace than the same things in the
country. There takes place q concen,
tration of pleasures that allure and be-
tray weak human nature and develop
perverted characters to breed and
spread contagion. Still, great things
are done in cities, and there must be
good lives there to inspire them. The
evils that menace society are conta
gious, and the people CT the city and
of the country may we'll unite against
this common foe as they do in the
warfare against tuberculosis. Were
the evils Of cities. not fed from tho
country they would annihilate them
selves,

IN A MACHINE OF HIS OWN
Fargo Boy Will Compete in Auto
Races.

A new rival for Christie, De Palma.
Fitzpatrick, Eurman and Strang, the
automobile drivers who will be seen
in competition and in speed tests at
the state fair track at ST. Paul next
Saturday, Automobile day, has sprung
up in the person of Alphonso Erdel of
Fargo.
Although Erdel is only nineteen
years old, he already las lemonstrat-
ed that he knows how to drive car.
In the race meet in conjunction with
the tri-state fair at Fargo last month
he made wonderful time on half-mile
track. On that occasion he displayed
reckless disregard for personal safety,
which puts him in the same class with
the veteran performers:
More than that, Erdel is mechanic
The car he will enter in the races
Saturday is composite of parts of
different cars which he has assembled
into a 80 horsepower juggernaut. He
had no prestige in the racing game,
SO, he found no manufacturer willing
to furnish him with a car. He there
fore set about to construct his own
machine.

FIGHT FOR MARIAN
BLEAKLEY ENDED
Habeas Corpus Proceedings al

Kansas City, Sept. 8.-The fight for
the possession of Marian Bleakley

So declared John II. Atwood in the
circuit court here when he, on behal,
of Mrs. James G. Barclay, withdrew
the habeas corpus suit brought to pre-
vent the return of the child to Mrs.

Marian was kidnapped. In closing s
dramatic address Mr.. Atwood said:
although we believe we are le
gally and morally entitled to this
child the heartaches of my client must
cease. We shall forever relieve this
good woman's soul of the weight Of
responsibility"
Mrs. Barclay was in tears. Mrs
Bleakley and the baby were not IL

An encouraging sign in the world OF

500 forest rangers to be chosen after
examination from among applicants

pay at the start is 5000 year. There
are thousands Of men capable for the

"Knowledge Of field conditions is
essential for beginners in scientific for.
estry, and that is about the only spe.
cial qualification not possessed by the
mass who come within the age limits

This merely means that the recruit
must have been in touch with work in

boys and young men who. IL they dc
not soon attach themselves to some
useful calling, will eventually drift tc
the ranks of those for whom there ex.

The Aviator's Chief Problem.
The general view is that the greatest
difficulty in the way of the aeroplane
lies III overcoming air currents. Avia-
tors themselves do not agree with this
opinion. 10 them the navigation Of
air currents, except In unusual winds,
has become comparatively simple.
They agree in the statement that their
chief problem is one Of motor power
An examination Of the recent aeci.
dents to aeroplanes shows that nearly
every one of theLa was due to failure
of the motor. This it was that caused
the two disasters to Hubert Latham
i'll his attempts to cross the English
channel. 1t also occasioned the first
slight mishaps of Orville Wright at
Fort Myer.
The same problem has been present
in automobiling and motorboat navi-
cation. The failure of motor with
these, however. usually occasions moth.
ing more than stoppage Of the ma
chine and a more or less tedious de-
lay In the aeroplane the case is more
serious The stoppage Of the motor
here means necessarily an immediate
descent. with the attendant danger Of
accident. The problem is also complf
Gated by the necessity for lighter mo-
tors and the consequent elimination Of
some Of the important parts OF the
engines. Glenn. II. Curtiss and some
other ayiators have succeeded in con.
triving surprisingly light motors. but
in sacrificing weight they have also
sacrificed efficiency. On the other
hand, the Wright brothers have retain.
ed the heavy motors and depended on
their machines to lift the greater
weight. Yet even with them the fail.
ure OF the engine at critica, times has
caused a few more or less serious mis-
haps. IT. Is plain that aeroplane in
ventors should hencefortb turn their
attention to- the perfecting Of suita.
ble motor and that with their success
the aeroplane problem will be solved.
With a reliable engine the aviator car
fy at greater heights, can cover longe,'
distances and can be practically In
sured against accident.

MARKET SEMI DEMoRALIzEl

New York, Sept. S.-An opening
break of 5k points in Union Pacific,
81 in Southern Pacific, .3A in New
York Central, 2ss in Reading and i

Of heavy selling and severe declines in

count before the opening here The
sales here were not in as large amount
as on many similar occasions, but the

The arrest Of the recovering of

which followed showed the uncertain
sentiment of the speculation. The
dealings fell to a very small volume
and the whole tone Of the market in.

Arden, N. Y, Sept. S.-All the
alarming rumors regarding the condi-
!, tion of F. H. Hartman have been re-
Sviyed, following his relapse. From the
best information obtainable, however,
1t is believed, that the attack that
caused a hurry call for New York
snurse was a temporary sickness
caused by sudden change of tenn
perature or an indiscretion in diet
which the sick man in his weakened
condition was unable to throw off.
DR.. w. G. Lyle, Mr.. Harriman's pri
vate physician, calls the attack "acute
Indigestion"
While Mr.. Harriman's last attack in
itself may not be serious there is al
ways danger of grave consequences in
the case of a man as. weak as Mr..
Hartman. This, it is believed, ac.
. counts for the anxiety of those sur
rounding the sick man. 1t is said that
although the progress of Mr.. Harri-
mans latest attack has been arrested
his temperature remains high and he
is exceedingly weak. The best in.
formation is that he is in bed and
although no confirmation of the re-
port has yet been obtained from the
house. little doubt exists here that
there are other physicians attending
him besides DR.. Lyle. .,s.
