the fifteenth century 1t was laid down
that dukes. marqulses and archbishops
should be allowed sixteen yards OF
cloth for their gowns, slopes

countess Of Richmond. mother of Hen
nv VII, isseed an ordinance for the
"reformatio OF apparel for great es-
tates of women In TYNE Of mourn
ings." So IL seems that men and WON
en- have met in the extravaganza OF
sorrow.
Even 200 years ago London trades
men found that court mourning seri-
ously affected their business. Addison
relates that at a tavern he often met
man whom be took for an ardent and
eccentric royalist. Every time this
man looked through the Gazette he ex-
claimed. Thank God. all the reigning
families of Chrome are we'll" Occa-
slonally he would vary this formula
by making reassuring remarks respect
ing the health OF British royalists. Aft
er some time Addison discovered that
this universal royalist was a colored
silk merchant. who never made bar
gain without inserting In the agree
ment. All this will take place as long

Proposed Constitutional Amend
nentS.

On the above subject the Rutland
Herald has published two articles that
are deserving the thoughtful considera-
ton of every voter in the state. The
first is appended, the second will follow
next week and We gladly give them space
in our columns.
1t is unthinkable that the fundament-
al law of the state should be changed in
accordance with every political within or
vagary that might assail the community.
On the other hand, while reverencing
its permanent character and approach
ing any proposed change with reluc-
tance, it is always we'll to bear in mind
that principle of constitutional law so
clearly expressed by Judge Cooley ::
that the "power to amend or revise their
constitutions resides in the great body
of the people as an organized body poll
tic, who being vested with ultimate
sovereignty, and the source of all state
authority, have power to control and
alter at will the law which they have
made" That state should voluntarily
deprive itself of the "power to control
and alter at will" is to impose upon it.
self grave handicap that in times of
unforeseen stress might work incalcul-
able evil. The various states have pre-.
served within themselves provisions in
their constitutions for their amendment
In some states provision is made to re-
qure the question of calling a conven'
tion to revise the constitution to be sub

The Utopia of today Is the reality of
tomorrow. -Passy.
The Washington herald., 1910-03-11

New Orleans, March 10.-The collapse
of the Estrada movement in Nicaragua
has been expected for some weeks here
because OF financial weakness. Both the
Madriz and the Estrada governments
have been hard up for money from the
beginning of the struggle, and success
depended upon getting funds from the
outside.
The Estrada revolution was financed,
it is understood, largely by American in
terests in Bluehelds. generally New Or
leans concerns operating there. The war
has lasted longer than was expected and
these concerns have refused to put up
any more. loan was secured in New
York, but when the revolutionary govern
ment defaulted on one OF its notes in
that city its credit was destroyed, and
il was then considered that the revoiu-
ton was hopeless. as it was impossible
to get arms and ammunition.
Americans Want Assurance.
The Americans and other foreigners
who advanced the funds for the Estrada
revolution are anxious TO recover their
money. and are insisting that enc OF the
conditions OF surrender shall be the reeog-
milton by the MadriZ government Of the
debts contracted by Estrada.
II this is not conceded they will call
on the United States to demand that the
revolutionary government be recognized
as having been de facto and that its debts
are obligations OF Nicaragua.
While the Estrada movement failed
through the loss of credit, Madriz. who
was equally hard put 10 at the time,
is said to have recently received $4,000
from Mexico, sent by Francesca Castro.
the Nicaraguan representative IN Mex
leo City and taken 10 Managua by Rob-
ert Bone.
II is charged that the money was con-
tributedt by the Mexican government.
but it seems more likely that it was
raised By sympathizers with Madriz, the
MexiCans being friendly to his govern
ment. The fund came in at a most op-
perfume time. enabling Madriz 10 equip

from Salvador and Honduras. and help

fight than he had been doing.
Two Correspondents Banished
That two correspondents in Bluefelds,
Nicaragua, have been expelled from the
country for the circulation of false rum
ors and reports OF campaigns Of the
armies, is the report of several of the
passengers on the steamship Dictator. of
the Bluehelds Steamship Line, which ar
rived to-day.
Gen. Estrada is said to have taken this
action from the belief that attempts were
made by the correspondents 10 bring in
