BAILEY's BLUNDER.

Senator Bailey's love for the CON
stituton has gone wild To say ina
the fourth Of March should not be
abandoned as "a great National day
of impressive ceremonial because
forsooth it would pecessitate an
amendment of the constitution is un-
adulterated nonsense. Gods law is
oerfect. and it is not to be adj
ded to nor taken from, but no man
of ordinary good sense contends as
much for the work of men wise alb
owe other men, though they may
nave been. The death roll created
5v the induction of our Presidents
into office is a long one. and to add
10 it unnecessarily is as unwise as
20 force men into danger that car
be readily avoided. To say TO the
American people keep away from
Washington when President is 10
BE- inaugurated, is to encourage abb
andonment of high civic duty. The
office grows in importance with the
coming and going Of the Yeas, AM
greater interest should be manifested
in all that concerns it by all the
people Of the country.
This same Bailey, who would now
do away with all form and ceremony
began his public career in Washing
ION by violating the proprieties of
life by declining to wear evening
d,ess. and the first thing the people
knew D ewas coQuetung with stan

was taken. he goes on to recon-

creation or a show. 1t is a good
deal of a political education to visit
Washington when an Administration
changes This country covers a vast
area. and the one danger is the lack
of contact between the people and
the national government. The prac-
tice of going to see an inauguration
ought to be encouraged. The House
Judiciary Committee has acted I'M
animously in favor of the measure
to change the date from March 4
TO the last Thursday of April. On
account of prolonging the Presiden-
tial term it requires a constitutional
amendment. and while it is almost
impossible to get the constitution
amended. the fact that no one can
have any motive for opposing the
proposed change encourages the be
lief that if Congress will do its part
three-fourths of the States will do

The man who opposes the change
is hardly safe to be allowed to go

YEARS ESTIMATE TWICE THE
SIZE OF CORN PRODUCT
Cash Value is S5,OOO,OOo,OOO


King corn is not really king. In
spite of the agricultural statisticians
the corn crop is not Uncle Sam S
greatest. Figured on a cash basis OF
dollars and cents even, it must give
place to the country's one greatest
and most essential product, that is
the baby crop. Based on the latest
figures compiled by a Boston econo-
mist, baby crop for 1910 will be
worth the enormous sum of $4,SS7,-
100000. Even figured on the basis
of former valuations, now acknow-
lodged to be too low, the figure
would amount to nearly Sl,3OO,OOO.
Nor are these figures fanciful or
based on sentimental values. They
represent as nearly as possible the
economic value to the United states
based on potential productive ca
pacity. of the 2,250.000 babies
which il is estimated will constitute
this years crop. According to the
laos, figures the value of each new
conner is 1892 a pound, or S2l12
for the average siX-pound yOungster,
giving a total value OF nearly So
5UO. 100000, or nearly three times
