One of the chief traits men have is to
desire to make the "best showing" they
can. This is all right, and comparatively
easy during youth, middle age, and per-
haps we'll along into old age-provided,
OF course, that your earning capabilities
do not wither.
But how about the showing" to be
made by those you, leave behind? Many
and many man never dwells upon that
until it comes to him i'll the haze of ia
tai illness.
Hoffman doesn't wish to make the
contemplation g-uesome one. It's only
one of life's hard headed facts. We can't
all roll up wealth. But while we are in
our earning period, we can dispose of the
matter definitely. We cannot only get
all that is coming to ouselves, but we
can enable those who are our dependents
to maintain the showing" we taught
them was due the family station.
There's lot more to this; but it's bet
ter talked over.

ing of that term as employed in the constitution"
 The constitutions of the states referred to by the court made no provision for government by the peo- pie directly but were essentially representative and republican in form.
 ''It may be said that these ex- pressions of the court are dicta, but that court even by way of r., lustration or as a dictum rarely ex- presses itself save after careful con sideration of it's expressions. The question of the constitutionality Of the initiative and referendum is now pending in that court in the case
 of State vs. Pacific States Tele- phone & Telegraph Co, 99 Pacific, i21. on appeal from the supreme court of Oregon, and l am ad vised is No. 197 upon the calendar of the court and cannot by any possibility be heard before next spring. and in all probability will not be reached for hearing before next fail, and the decision of the courts can scarcely be expected in it's present somewhat disorganized condition before the following spring.
 'aThe enabling act in express terms requires that our constitu- tion shall be republican in form. and it would be ridiculous to as- sume that the president. himself great constitutional lawyer, would approve a constitution containing these debatable measures while a case involving the cOnstitutionality of such provisions is pending in the supreme court of the United States, and we must look for delay in the presidents approval of such a constitution until at least a year from next spring. and in event the decision is announced after the ad- journment of congress, then for up- wards of two years. If that deci- sion be adverse, disapproval will follow as a matter of course. That it will be adverse l believe to have been clearly foreshadowed by the existing expressions of the court. In such event the people will hear no excuse from those who have fol- lowed their instructions inconsider- ate'y given. Results alone count. It has been said the voice of the people resembles the voice of God. Let me again urge you to submit the question fairly to your constitu- ents and ask to be released from vour instructions. Failing in this. and acting upon your present in ~tructions. I prophecy you will find he wrath of a disappointed people wonderously like the wrath of God and sooner felt"

POISON IN
 EFFORT TO END LIFE
PHYSICIAN SAVES RED LIGHT cHARAcTER-ATT BYI woUI-BE SUICIDES

Maud James attempted to com init suicide in one of the houses in the red light district yesterday morning by taking poison. The wo- man gave no reason for her rash act simply saying that she wanted to die. She took a dose of crealin. enough to cause death, but phy- sician arrived in time to save her life. Crealin is not as violent a poison as carbo,ic acid although its action is much the same and it causes the same painful sensations after being swallowed.
 Among those who rushed to the woman's aid were two women who attempted to suicide some weeks ago. One Of them had taken water in which anticeptic tablets had been dissolved. Her life was saved by the timely arrival of a doctor. Be fore drinking the poison this woman offered the glass to man, asking him if he did not want drink. Luckily for him refused the pois- oned cup. This man was present with the woman yesterday morn ing in the room where the physi- clan was working on the girl who had drunk the crealin.

 The constitution of the new com monweaith provides for more than unlon-fN substantial notification. The government is to be strongly centralized. following the Canadian rather than the American or Austra- Han plan. Practically all the interests and affairs of the provinces are plac- ed in the hands of the central parliar ment, the purely local and admins trative business of each province only being in the hands of a provin- cial council, which also is subject finally to the authority of the central parliament.
 The central parliament. which met for the first time today. is composed of a senate and assembly, or lower house. Each of the four provinces chooses eight senators through the vote of it's provincial council and its members of the assembly, or low CT house. and to these are added eight senators nominated by the Governor General in Council. The members of the house of assembly or lower body of the national ieets- lature. are chosen by the provinces substantially acoording to the adult male European population.

side of mercy" means the sob
squad. 1t is a good argument
sometimes, but it falls to the
ground when we fall face to face
with a set of facts in which there
can be no mistake. There should
be no room for "must erin the
decision of society when a beast
beats out the brains of helpless
old woman with piece of iron.
In such cases society must not err.
When it does it pays the penalty.
When mistakes are made in
criminal procedure they are near
ly always made in favor of the
criminal, and not against him.
We do not compel him to testify.
We surround and shield him with
the presumption of innocence"
when every presumption of COM
mon sense, based on the actual
facts, should be against him. All
doubts must be resolved in his
favor and against society at large.
AS result we turn beasts loose
again upon the community-and
they proceed to kill in droves.
The interests of the state, of the
people, should be paramount.
Their rights are more sacred than
any that may be possessed by the
slayers of women and children.
"If we must err must be stricken
from the reckoning as such fends
as Rascoe and the murderer of the
Bernhardts stand before the bar OF
justice. In such cases society must
not err but must mete out even and
exact justice, untempered with any
softer quality.-KGnSas City Post

AS to Murderers.

Murder, the taking of human
life for jealousy, revenge or gain,
has been with us since history be-
gan. And ever since that time
mankind has been trying to find
fitting recompense, the retributive
act that would serve both as a
punishment and a deterrent. 1t
must be confessed that in the lat
ter regard the success thus far has
been but meager.
| Crimes of a peculiar form APP
pear to go in waves. A generation
ago the combination murder and
suicide was OF the utmost rarity.
Now pot a week passes but we
read of one of these double of
fenses. And in the majority of
such cases there is forewarning.
The husband or lover threatens,
but the victim does nothing. A
drunken bully goes about for days
with a revolver in his pocket and a
fancied grievance in his breast,
and nobody interferes. There is
something wrong with society's
machinery when such things are
possible.
And what of the problem that is
presented by this more recent
form, this Staying by Wholesale,
killing in droves? Within the past
few months there have been three
of these very near to Kansas City
and all appear to have been done
! by beings more beast than human

! in Wyandotte county young
\ man with twisted brain slew his
two sisters and a brother-in-law
I And hard upon the heels OF these
! comes the killing of four persons
/ at the Bernhardt farm near Dal
I las.
All Of these tragedies bore th'
marks Of the fend, the being tina
somehow society should have pro
, tected itself against. Rascoe hat
killed before. With an iron stow
8 leg he had beaten out woman
Z brains because she made joking
remark. And the law sent him t
. prison for ten years. In sevel
9 years he was free again, and fou
9 more innocent lives were sacrifice,
because somebody had blundere'
B on the side of a foolish and maud
lin sentimentality. No doubt tn
! law will be very severe with hin
! this time, but no sentence that ca
