According to a report in the Montreal
Gazette. Col. Roosevelt declared that IN
no power to declare legislative act un-
constitutional. One Of the leading law
yers Of Montreal writes as follows:
IF all the other premises upon which
Mr.. Roosevelt bases his conclusions are
as foundationless as this one. I am not
surprised that they are sometimes really
extraordinary. The courts Of the province
of Ontario. as the courts Of all the
provinces, have the power and do very
often declare the laws, either OF the
Dominion or Of the provinces, unconsti-
tutional and ultra wires. In fact. our
code OF procedure in the province OF
Quebec. and the rules Of practice In On
tairo, and the statutes in the other
provinces have special provisions under
which. when the constitutionality Of q
law Is attacked, the attorney general Of
the Dominion. or Of the particular prov
ince. is notified to appear and support
the law. I could cite dozens OF cases In
which the provincial courts have adJudi-
Gated upon the constitutionality OF the
federal and provincial laws"
A plan to divide Kentucky's democratic
delegates between the two native Ken

is proposed by South Trimble. clerk OF the

representative from the Ashland district.
BY giving thirteen votes each in the Bal
timore convention to Representative Os-
car w. Underwood and Speaker Champ
Clark, Mr. Trimble believes that q grace
full and effective compliment will be paid
the two distinguished sons Of Kentucky
by their native state, blow will be
struck for both, of thems and there will be
avoided factionalism that would embar-
