Plan of Mortgage Tax Law Attacked.

Plan Of Mortgage Tax Law Attacked.
Constitutionality of the mortgage
tax law passed by the last legislature
is attacked in an appeal filed with the
supreme court by the Trustees, Exc
cutors and Sureties' Corporation and
the Observation-Disclosures Trust
Company, both of New York. The
companies underworld a Sal, 900 900
bond issue for the Orient railroad
company, taking a mortgage on the
line. When the mortgage was pre-.
sented for record in the office of the
register of deeds OF Dewey county the
fee of so cents per $500 for recording
was demanded.
Payment of the tea was refused by
the companies, and they sought to
force the register of deeds to record
the instrument at the old recording
fee through mandamus proceedings
Mandamus was denied by District
Judge G. A. Brown, OF Mangum, be-
fore whom the case was tried and the
appeal to the higher court is taken
from his ruling.
1t is contended by the companies
that the mortgage tax law was passed
during the last five days OF the session
of the legislature. They assert that
1t is a revenue measure and that the
constitution prohibits the passage of
revenue measures within the last five
days of a session.

An Unfounded Alarm

Some alarm has been voiced at the possible necessity of calling the state legislature together again for the steenth time, this time amend the direct primary law to bring the nomination of candidates for United States senator within it's scope. It quite clear whether primary law provided for the nomination of cand dates for senator the old advisory arrangement would of course. be sufficient. But the law last year. three weeks after the adoption of the constitutional amendment providing for the direct election of United States senators.
 The only supplementary legislation We might require would be law authorizing the governor to fill vacancies under the constitutional amend penE for without such law, in the case of vacancy the senate from this state, the governor would be required o issue writ for immediate, special election to fill it But it is unlikely that such eacancy will before the meeting of the next legislature.
 In Of the states the time of the adop ton of the constitutional amendment, there direct primary laws incomplete laws. In such states special legislation necessary bring the candidates before the people representatives of parties. But the Arizona law is specific and ple,e. providing that nomination papers may be filed for candidates well as candidates for other elective offices
 But states, if any, where specific provision is made for the nomination of senators, but where there may be incomplete primary laws providing for party nominations only through the primary, all candidates for United States senator would have go before the people in bunch. If that situation existed here it would probably insure a democratic calamity this yeaf.

The Democratic Senatorial Situation

The announcement of Hon. Eugene s Ives that he will again be candidate for the democratic nomination for United States apparently clarifies somewhat the situation in that party but it does not really do The presence of Mir. Ives in the field would be calculated to deter other can didates of the so-caled radical wing of the party from entering it. But his removal himself is the removal of dyke which, believe. will be fol- lowed by aa rruption of radical statesmen, each of whom thinks he has. al least, good a chance another It is not to be supposed that the for this alluring prize will be left alone Messrs Smith and Ling both of the old line element of the party.
 The democratic party in this is rich in senatorial timber least of the quality which has been accepted by the party sufficient standard but unfortunately it happens that nearly all of the ablest men at present rather of touch with the political situation and looking the divided democratic field, We find painful scarcity of men who would likely popular support and suh- sequeny fill the office with credit either them selves the But the office will not so beg gng. It will be filled somehow.

A PERUVIAN HISTORIAN

At the exposition restaurant one evening during my stay in Lima was the guest Of Senor Alberto 1arco Herrera, a prominent Peruvian of Trujillo. whom I met on the steamer. Senor Larco is graduate of Cornell University, class of 189S Our companion Romulo E. Garcia one of the editors La Preusa, very clever young journalist ot the American type Around were a galaxy Of hter- ary men. among whom was the famous Peruvian poet Jose Galvez, who has written some very ele- gant verse upon the old Spanish influence in Peru. The restaurant was fine the best in New York the men were brilliant and the women beau tiful and have never tasted viands more relish able and Senor Larco proposed to me visit to Dr. Jose Torbio Polo, Perus most industrious and conscientious historian Accordingly, next morning my friend came for me in his automobile and went the home of the great man. It was a quaint old Spanish house on one of the squares with flowers, bird song and sunshine AS we en- tered the study of the literateur, were greeted with Castilian courtesy by modest and scholarly man. Larco told him that 1 interested in Peru The historian delighted and showed me ms private collection Of old books and manuscripts and the manuscript of his greatest work "A history of the Viceroys" Senor Polo was much interested in the work on Peru by our own clever mstoriah Prescott.
 Polo has in his collection letter of marque and reprsal against the vessels of France, signed pN President Adams. When told him that Adams was the first sgner of the Declaration of Independence he waved his hands with delight and fonded the letter though he had discovered long lost or neglected child. Among his letters also was the first grammar of the old Peruvian tongue Writteh by hand in 1914; the autograph of Pizarrp; the actual death of General Mateo GarcIa, Who was the first Peruvian to draw the sword agalhst the king of Spain. He was sentenced to De haiseo his head to be to Cuzco his right arm to Arequipa his left arm to be exposed Tn the square Lima, and his body reduced to ashes as a warn ing. l actually could read myself the spanish words written the document by the eXecutloner Juan Ramirez: Immediately the sentence was executed after time given spiritual preparation, Whlch l certify" Spain took chances with rebelllous subjects. and this in 1S15 the year of the pat tie of Waterloo.-Peter MacQueen in Nationai Ma gaZne
