whisky"
Pray tell me why Congress has not
the power to exclude from the chan
nels of commerce whisky intended to
be used in violation of the law of any
state whether the state be wet or dry?
Congress has plenary power over the
entire field and can take out of COM
merce whatever it sees fit.
Mr.. Speaker. The states at one time
had the power-before the constitution
was formed-to prohibit the importa-
ton of liquor intended to be used in
violation of the law Of these states.
After the constitution was formed
it is going to be argued that the states,
Congress, that somewhere between
the transfer that power was lost? If
the state could prohibit the importa-
ton of liquor in violation of her laws,
Congress can do it, otherwise the
states have given UP the power that
they once had and sovereignty has
been lost or suspended somewhere.
Congress now has the same power
over interstate commerce as each and
every state had prior to the formation
of the constitution. Surely, gentle
men, Congress and the states COM
bined have the power to control the
liquor question. The courts say that
the states now can not control or
regulate interstate commerce, for that
power now reposes absolutely in Con-
gress. The states once could do it,
but they transferred that power to
Congress, and that is the legislative
body to control interstate shipments
now.
The act of 1897 directs the secretary
of the treasury to make and maintain
a standard for imported tea, and thc
importation of any tea that does not
come up to that standard is prohibited.
The syllabus of the case of Butheld
(1o2 U. S. 47o) reads as follows:
'The power to regulate foreign COM
merce being an enumerated power, is
complete in itself, acknowledging no
limitations other than those prescribed
in the constitution, and Congress can.
without violating the due process
clause, establish standards and pro-
vide from considerations of public
policy that no right shall exist to
import an article of food not equal
thereto.
The court upholds the constitution
atty of the measure, though the power
to fix the standards and apply the i'm
ported tea to those standards is COM
mitted to individuals, and when such
tea fails, in the judgment of the Of
ficials, to come up to those standards,
the tea must be returned to the coun-

Saturday, Wnen the w DD DIN was up
for reconsideration in view OF the
Presidents veto which was made n
the interest of the blind pig fraternity,
Congressman Webb pleaded for the
passage of the measure over the veto
in the following remarkable twenty
minute speech, classic of its kind
Mr.. Speaker. The President gives as
one reason why he vetoes this bill that
liquor and beer are legitimate articles
of commerce. That was once true Of
liquor that was shipped into the In
dian territory before Congress put its
hand upon it. That was true OF
opium before Congress put its hand
upon it. That was true of nitroglycer-
in before Congress put its hand upon
it. That was true of lottery tickets
before Congress put its hand upon
them. That was true of twenty-five
or thirty other different articles be-
fore Congress put it hand upon them.
In the beginning of the government
everything that could be bought and
sold and transported was legitimate
interstate shipment, has the right to
exclude certain articles which in the
judgment of Congress it deems proper
to exclude. 1t is admitted by all
that Congress has the power to eN-
clude the shipment of all liquor from
interstate commerce. That being true,
it certainly has the right to exclude
the shipment of liquor in interstate
commerce if it is found that it is in
tended to be used in violation of the
law of a state of the union.
The other reason assigned by the
President for vetoing this bill is that
it is a delegation of commerce power
to the states. On that respectfully
dissent from the opinion of the Presi-
dent The old Hepburn-Dolliver bill
might have been open to that objec-
ton, but this bill is not, and the Pres
dents excerpts from the Knox report
were written by Mr.. Knox in assign
ing objections to the principle in that
bill. The bill we now consider pro-
hibits the shipment in interstate COM
merce of liquor intended to be used
in violation of law of the state into
which it is shipped Congressional
power never takes its hands off of such
shipment; but the minute it is deter
mined by competent tribunal that
that is the fact, then Congress takes
that shipment out of legitimate COM
merce and subjects it to the law of the
state, as c. o. D. shipments of liquor
are today treated. If shipment Of
liquor is sent c. o. D. today it can be
seized by the state, because it is not
legitimate commerce. If it is not
marked whisky" it can be seized by
the state for the same reason. Liquor

INTERPRETATION coNeREss

Chicago, Sept. 17-The third inter
national Congress Of Refrigeration,
in which AZ countries in all parts of
the world are represented by more
than five thousand delegates, includ-
ing manufacturers, scientists, engi-
neers, ice producers and dealers in
all kinds of produce which depend
upon refrigeration to prevent enor-
nous waste, was opened here today
by Acting President Dr. Frank w.
Gunsaulaus. Secretary Houston of
the department of agriculture, who
is the honorary president of the CON
gress, delivered the opening address
and also presided at the ceremonies
attending the opening of the refrige-
ration exhibition which is held, in
conjunction with the congress, at the
international Amphitheater Of the
Union stock yards The exhibition is
unusually large and comprehensive
and shows the marvellous progress
that has been made in the construc-
tion and equipment Of Ice and refri-
gerating plants. The exhibit Of the
United States government includes
an enormous ice box which cost $1O,-
900 to build and which is believed
to be the largest ice box in the
world Among the foreign exhibits
the Russian exhibit is particularly
large and interesting, which is due to
the fact that the Russian government
is taking great interest in the matter
and through its delegates, will make
an effort Of having St Petersburg
designated as the place for holding
the next congress.

Rome. Sept. 17.-In consequence OF
a teries of incidents, the most recent
oBwhich was the mutiny Of the Swiss
guards, the Vatican authorities are to-
day talinug steps to reform the tiny
bit historic army under their control
Although consisting of less than 300
nen. the armed forces of the Holy
Ne comprise five different corps
They are the Noble guards, the Swiss
guards, Palatine guards, Gensdarmes
Tiremen, or as they are called,
dcuards of the Fire
The most important of these is the
Noble guards. Constituted as it is
today, this organization dates back
to a little over one hundred years
The predecessors Of the Noble guard
however, first came into existence in
1854, having been organized as a papal
guard in the time of Innocent Will
They we're, however. disbanded in
1898 when Plus VI was carried off to
France, whence he meyer returned. In
1901 an agitation was started in Rome
among the aristocracy again to form
bodyguard for the Pontiff, and an
address was sent to Plus VII offering
their services gratuitously- To this
Plus replied by message from his sec
retary Of state, dated May II, 1901,
which may be called their act Of foun-
dation, and which provided that the
corps consist Of 60 individuals, men
and officers. Now they are reduced
to about so and their command, which
was hereditary in the Barberini and
Altieri families, has lately passed to
the Rospiglosi, the present command
er being Prince Camille The Ameri-
can connections of this family are not
able, Prince Camille having two sons,
both Of whom married American girls.
The wife Of one was Miss Ethel Julia
Bronson, Of New York, while the other
made Miss Mildred Haseltine his wife.
The Aospigliosi are very proud Of
having had the commandership Of the
Noble guard conferred upon them as
thereby they take rank with the five
other houses which hold hereditary
positions at the Papal court. These
are the two princes-assistants Of the
Papal throne, namely the heads of the
Orsini and Colonna families, deadly
rivals in the Middle Ages; the mas

This week will also mark the open
ing Of the football season with the
playing Of the Carlisle Indiana Albright
college game and several other minor
contests on Saturday, September 20
Practice has been under way, either
formally or informally, at majority
of the larger eastern universities for
some days, and within the next two
or three weeks every varsity eleven
will swing into action for the short
but strenuous season allotted to the
gridiron sport,
The Yale squad has been training
sipee the first Of the month at New
port and Siasconset. This practice,
which has been more or less informal,
found the backfield candidates work
ing under the direction or DR., W. T.
Bull, famous as a punter in his active
football days. The linemen, under
the direction Of Captain Ketcham and
head coach Howard Jones, begin the
long training grind on Nantucket is
land. The scene shifted to Yale field
on September II, and from now on
the new system of resident coach
will be watched with interest by Yale
undergraduates and alumni, and the
followers Of the Harvard and Prince
ton elevens, which will test the merits
of the new system late in November
Howard Jones, who opens his three
year term as active field coach, will
be assisted by Walter Camp in IN
advisory capacity Unfortunately for
the new head coach the Yale material
is not particularly impressive at this
time. The backfield win have to be
reconstructed, due to losses by grad
uation and veteran forwards are
scarce. Some excellent substitute and
freshmen players of last season will
be available, however, and the new
coach is counting upon this material
as the nucleus of his team.
The outlook at Harvard is far more
optimistic This makes the task fac
ing Coach Jones harder, for after all
is said and done Yale's chief rival in
intercollegiate athletics is the Grim
son. Coach Haughton has instructed
the Harvard candidates to report at
Soldiers field on Tuesday, and with
the perfect football system that pre-
walls at Cambridge, the development
of another strong team will begin
without delay The abundance of vet
