Much comment, especially among
womerb has followed the Diocesan

that condemn the prevailing styles

F'to break down chastity and purity"
The Episcopal clergymen are direct
ed by the resolutions to preach on the
subject before the session of the 124th
council. The deputies to the Triennial
General convention in New York are
required to ask that body to take
suitable action expressing its opposi-
ton to modes that are not considered
modest. The resolutions were pre-
sented by the Rev. Walter Mitchell,
rector of the Porter Military Acade-
my. Their text follows:
What the Resolutions Say.
FWheras, the prevailing style of
dress and some Of the recent ways Of
dancing tend to break down chastity
and purity; therefor be it.
Resolved, by the council Of the
Diocese of South Carolina. That it is
the sense of this council that oul
church people generally, but parents
and the clergy in particular, ought to
do all in their power to improve these
conditions.
and be it further resolved. That
the clergy be requested to preach
against them once before the meeting
of the next council
"And as these things are not Pc
culiar to our own State, but are MAX
ing their influence felt over all the
nation; therefore be it:
"Resolved, That the bishop and del
egates to the general convention be
requested to secure suitable action,

Fashions Blindly Followed.
According to a woman of fashion,
many Charleston women personally
endorse the spirit in which the council
has made its protest, but she said that
women were all but powerless since
the decres of fashion are blindly fol-
lowed. "The narrow-bottomed skirt,
is an abomination, she continued,
Women are not graceful in their
movements when they wear some Of
the current styles. My friends and
I have often discussed the matter, but
we cannot stick to the old ways un-
less We volunteer to retire. AS a mat
ter of fact. the women Of Charleston
and other South Carolina towns have
not adopted the extremes. Some of
those who want to appear up-to-tbe-
minute in affairs Of dress have dis
played advance costumes, but, taken
en- masse, the women of this section
have not gone the length of their
sisters of the Eastern and Western
parts of the country.
Better Than the Hobble.
"As everybody knows, designers in
Paris and Vienna dictate the styles.
The Balkan war furnishes them with
an excuse for Introducing costumes
that smack of the Near-East. These
are not pretty, They are all but
shape}ess. But, to my mind, the Bal
kan vogue is preferable to that which
makes general the wearing Of hobbies

way to drag is to begin at the side

the drag should be started a little
nearer the center and the last trip
close to the center itself. Small
ridges of earth will be thrown in the

by the drag is called ''puddling," and
it tends to make the surface of the
road smooth and watertight after the
sun comes out. The road is always
dragged after it has rained, and not
when it is dry. A good, strong pair
of horses with we'll built drag can
drag about three or four miles of
road in day, and it is the best way
to maintain good roads. In every
county some farmer along each four

STATE TAX COMMlS-
SION APPROPRIATION
HELD TO Be VALID
STATE AUDITOR COMPELLED TO
PAY SALARIES AND EXPENS-
ES-WILL AGGREGATE
NEARLY $4,000.


court yesterday decided that the ap-
preparation bill passed by the legis-
lature of 1911 for the salaries and
expenses of the North Dakota state
tax commission, still holds.
This decision gives the tax COM
mission nearly $49,SOO for the BIZ
ennial period.
Governor Hanna, at the close of
the legislature last winter, vetoed a
bill passed by the assembly provid-
ing an appropriation of $17,500 an
nually, contending that there was a
standing appropriation of only $3,-
for the commission.
Under the old bill the salaries of
the commission members, of a chief
clerk and provision for other ex-
penses, is made.
The decision of the supreme court
is unanimous, and under it perma-
nent writ of mandamus is issued, di-
recting the state auditor to pay sal
aries and expenses of the commits
sion. The salaries have been held
up for some time, pending the de-
cision.
F. E.. Packard brought the suit,
L. E. Birdzell and Geo. Wallace, 9TH
~er members of the commission, ap-
pearing as attorneys.
Chapter 3O3 of the 1911 session
laws cerating the commission, car
ried an annual appropriation aggre-
gregating s22,500. State Auditor
Jorgenson contended that only $3,-
900 of this amount was an actual ap-
preparation.
In order to make sure Of the in.
stentsef-th law tha~tax coIawissi1p
induced the last legislature to amend
the 1911 law and this amendment
carried another appropriation of
$17,5OO annually. This was vetoed
by Gov. Hanna, on the grounds that
the work of the commission had been
practically accomplished and that
the appropriation exceeded the reve-
nues Of the state. When the $4,000
appropriation for 1913 for expenses
had been exhausted State Auditor
Jorgenson refused to honor the
vouchers of the tax commission.
May 1st, upon application of the
commission, the supreme court is
sued a temporary writ of mandamus
against Jorgenson.
The case was continued on the
part of the tax commission by Chair
man Birdzell and Commissioner
Wallace, and for State Auditor Jor-
genson by j. E. Green of Minot and
R. S. Richardson of the firm of Bar
nett & Richardson of Fargo.
The 1913 legislature having ap-
propriated $17,500, unless that sum
had been vetoed by the governor, it
is a question whether the commits
sion would not have been given the
double appropriation aggregating
$85,500 for this one commission. It
is stated that the standing annual
allowed under the de-
cision of the supreme court for this
commission will be $4,000, or $49,-
500 for the biennial period.
