Warehouse Amendment Does Not

There are several of the pro
posed amendments which lncor-
porate purposes most worthy Of
support. but which, from the ne

levy OF certain taxes upon the peo-
pie. in order that these purposes

exclusively to these fax-bearrng
measures. with the result that the
casual reader has probably gained
the impression that amending the
Const tuition and taxing the peo-
pie are coordinate acts, This Is
not true. The Warehouse Amend

From the New York World.
To preserve discipline at West Point
few years ago Congress passed a Sc
we're law against hazing and provided
that cadets found guilty CT the prac-
tice should be expelled. Now con-
gress with the approval of tender
hearted secretary of war proposes to
authorize harmless hazing," so that
three cadets UNDER sentence of dismis-
sal can be reinstated. Ultimately. OF
course. the Military Academy will be
reformed. 1t has been going
through the process for six or seven
years. and congress is still at it. At
the start congress was outraged by the
brutality of the young gentlemen in
course of training to be officers of the
United States Army. 1t investigated

the culprits. But the first time the
superintendent of the military acade.

dismiss a party of hazers. who had
been convicted Of violating the regula-

SL|FER At LIBERTY
Pleas of His Faithful Wife
Touched the Heart of
Eaton Judge.
IS NAMED IN WHITE CASE,
palladium Specially

Eaton. O.. Jan. 5.-Forgetting and
forgiving his extreme cruelty in the
desertion of her and her family of
three small children, Neome Slifer
appeared before Judge Elan Fisher
here yesterday and delivered touch
ing plea for her husband. Benjamin F.
Sitter, who has been cOnned in the
county bastile for two or three weeks
on the charge of desertion.
Notwithstanding the fact that he
has steadfastly declared he would
not live with her. the little wife asked
the judge to give him his liberty. She
said he had always been a good hus-
band and father during the several
years that they have been married.
Judge Fisher favorably considered the
woman's pleadings and Slifer has
been released from custody.
Slifer was arrested in Richmond
several weeks ago, after he had left
his family two or three weeks. 1t
was reported that in Richmond Slifer
had been paying attention to another
woman. but his mention in the case
of Eddie White is spurned by local
friends of the man.

The American Woodchuck.

1t is unfair to make the American
woodchuck responsible for the wealth
err of the last six weeks of winter in
the United States. He is not the same
animal as the English grounding, with
which the Candlemas legend is proper
ly associated. Tie woodchuck is an
honest, sturdy and valiane rodent, who
minds his own business: a soldier of
the pasture who fights the canine enc
my to the last gasp and dies with for
titude 1t is shameful aspersion
upon his character to say that he can
lie about the weather or anything else.
