ond year with the advent of March 4
twenty-one years thereafter; that he con-
cludes his twentytirst year at some mo-
ment March =. and as the day cannot be
divided he ends his twenty-first year
with the first moment of March, and
as the voting is done March >, he is en-
titled to vote.
Same Rule Applies to Congress.
The same rule applies to the termina-
ton of term of Congress. The term
ends March at the last particle of
time March sand the new Congress
takes life at the first particle of time
March 4.
Congress- almost since the beginning
of the Union has held until noon March
1. That custom might make common
law. but 1t cannot overcome a provision
of the Constitution. The Constitution is
higher than common law-higher than
statute law.
In my opinion, all these bills which
the House journal shows were not passed
before March land there are a number
of them-are not laws at all.
1t is also my opinion. that these bills
which were passed March 4. but which
are shown by the journal to have passed
March 3. are not laws If the approval
was not made by the President until
March 4.
THE legislative and executive depart
ments are separate under the Constitu-
ton. The journal speaks for the legis-
lative. while the records made by the
President himself speak for the execu-
tive department 1t takes both the legis-
lative and the executive to make laws
Cannot Change Constitution.
Il am familiar with the practice of Con-
gress as to legislating on March /.
contend that Congress cannot change the
Constitution by mere practice or custom,
not even by an act approved by the
President. The Constitution can be
changed only in the manner prescribed
by the Constitution itself.
II am giving this opinion off hand,
without looking to Sc whether or not the
Supreme Court has ever decided the
question. / am satisfied, however in my
the question which can possibly be
taken.
Protests against Representative John
sons statement were heard today from
various members of the appropriations
committee, and from other committees
which has bills passed after midnight of
March 3. Although no member of the
House had taken up Mr.. Johnson's argu-
ment in detail to refute it, several MEM
bers of the House said that no attempt
would be made voluntarily to reintroduce
the District bill or any other bills which
fall under Mr.. Johnsons category of in
valid measures.

Whereas, in the death of our Broth
er, P. E. Braswell, the Hendersonyille
Methodist church has lost a faithful
member, the official board a wise

reaved wife, our heartfelt sympathy,
and point her for consolation to Him

DANGER FROM GRIPPE
Lies in That Cough and Weak.
WORKOUT Condition.

EEH &EE XAM
Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia, these
are greatly to be feared at this time
Of the year.
To prevent grippe from being fol-
lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo-
MIA, it is important to drive the last
traces Of it out of the system quickly.
Our advice is to take VinOl. our
delicious cod liver and iron prepara-
ton without oil, and get your strength
and vitality back quickly.
Mrs. A. A. GrabiII, of S~trasburg,
Va. says: Grippe left me weak, run
down and with a evere cough, from
which 1 suffered four years. / tried
different remedies, but nothing seemed
to do me any good until / took Vinol,
from which I received great benefit.
My cough is almost entirely gone, and
I am strong and well again, and l am
glad to recommend vinol to others
who suffer as I did"
Try vinol with the certainty
that If it does not benefit
you we will give back your money.

President Wilson made, objection to
only two schedules of the new tariff
bill, these being the proposed duty of
5 per cent on wool and free sugar in
three years. Leader Underwood read
lily acceded to the Presidents wishes
and had corrections in the bill made
accordingly. Not, however, without a
fight, as forty-two democrats voted to
retain the revenue duty of Is per cent.
on wool proposed in the committee
bill. All of them should have stood
With the President and Mr.. Under
wood for the compromise measure.

Resolution.

Whereas God in His wisdom has TAX
en- from our Sunday School Miss
Mamie Steedman, therefore be it re-
solved,
First, That in her death we have
lost one of our most faithful and be-
loved teachers and one whose sweet
and gentle spirit endeared her to all
who knew her.
Second, That while she rests from
her labors her work goes on in the
lives she touched, and the memory of
her pure unselfish life shall ever be
an inspiration of friends and loved
ones in service yet a little longer.
Third, That while our hearts are
sad we bow in humble submission to
Him who doeth all things well.
Fourth, That we extend our deep
est sympathy to the bereaved family,
and commend them to the one who
said "Let not your hearts be troubled"
Fifth, That copies of these resolu-
be sent to the family, recorded
IN the Sunday School minutes and sent
tc the local papers.

CITY DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The city Democracy has been for
tunate in the selection of its nominees
for municipal Offices for the approach
ing election on May s. No apology is
needed for the action of the conven-
ton which named the ticket, for the
work was well done. The personnel
of the ticket is one of it's distinguish
ing characteristics, while ability and
experience. are requisites for tn epub-
lie service possessed by each of the
candidates. The party has seldom
been more fortunate in the selection
of candidates for city officers and we
believe the conclusion reached by the
convention spells" a big victory for
the democratic party in Greater Hen
Jacksonville at the May election.
Mr.. n. NJ. Shepherd, the nominee
for mayor needs no introduction to
the people of Hendersonville. He has
been serving them in a business way
for more than a quarter of a century
and few men here have a wider &C
quaintance than Roe" Shepherd.
He has succeeded admirably in his
private business and it stands to rea-
son that he would give the city a bus
mess administration. Mr.. Shepherd
is in no sense a politician, in the gen
eral significance of the term, but has
numerous friends who have had expe-
rience in the art of getting votes and
they r not going to take any
chances on the result.
The nominees for members of the
board of aldermen are also men of in
tegrity and business ability. Each of
them is an enthusiastic booster for
this town and the city would make
progress under their direction of it's
affairs. The names of Fletcher, Flick
er and Keith will do to conjure' with
either in private DR. public affairs.
In short the city is fortunate in hav-
ing obtained the consent of J. A.
Fletcher, A. Flicker and w. A. Keith
to devote a portion of their time to
the consideration of its business. Mr..
Fletcher has served on the aldermanic
board during former years and will
be an old hand at the wheel. Messrs.
Flicker and Keith are business men of
parts and both of them possess the
tact and ability to serve the city
wisely and well.
1t now behooves the Democracy to
line up solidly behind the splendid
ticket it has named and elect the
same by an overwhelming majority.

business as a blind tiger, also. Re
Gently his place was raided by officers,
under authority of the search and
seizure act, and 1858 quarts of booze
were taken from the premises. Too
many liverymen all over the state
have been selling liquor and if the

nefarious practice pretty soon. Let
