ton, in public speech, advocated and
defended that plank. Suffice it is to
say that President Wilson with his usual
clearness Of judgment has recognized the
mistake Of that plank, and with his
usual bravery and honesty, now advo-
Gates its repeal. Other Democrats
equally brave and honest, also acknowl-
edge the mistake Of that plank and are
now advocating its repeal, among the
rest that able and distinguished United
States Senator, John Sharpe Williams,
Of Mississippi. This exemption of the
American coatswide ships, Is nothing
more or less than ship subsidy, which is
only the twin sister Of the iniquitious
high protective tariff. Ship subsidy has
always been opposed by the Democratic
party, and it IS opposed to it now. The
Democratic party IS SIMPLY proving
true to the faith and tenets of Democ-
racy, pure and simple Why should
the American ships be thus subsidized?
Why should the American steamship
companies and the great railroad inter-
ests identified with them be granted
passage free through the peoples canal?
This would give them millions Of dollors
at the expense Of the people. Why
should they not pay toll equally with all
foreiga ships that 20 through the canal?
There is no reason why the money of
the people should be used to build this
canal, and then to be used free by par
eel of American steamship companies
and the railroads behind the ateamship
companies? We sincerely trust that the
Democrats in the Senate will sustain
President Wilson is his fight against
free toll and ship subsidy in the Panama
Canal Bill.

The State tax rate will make Jump of
one and third cents in 1915, and in 1916
there will still be another Increase. The
rate two years from now will be 60 1924.
The increase in 1916 is due to the large

these several county and probate Of
fees and justices of the peace shall
be elected.
The ninth is Article "a, which sub
stitutes biennial in place of annual
sessions of the general assembly.
The tenth is Article 26, which we
will consider later.
The eleventh is Article 8, adopted
in March of last year, which subst-
tutes the title of Justice for
Judge" of the supreme court.
These are all the amendments
bearing on the clause of the original
Section 9 quoted at the outset. When
fused into that clause do they COM
pletely oblitc-ate it or do they leave
something that should be preserved?
It will be noted that none of the
amendments quoted deal with the
election of Judges or justices of the
supreme court. Disregarding, for the
moment, Article &c, to be considered
later, the revisors had ample warrant
in framing out of the remnant of the
quoted clause in Section g. untouch-
ed by subsequent amendments and
therefore, continued. the new Section
80. which reads as follows:
The joint Assembly may biennially
on their first session after their cleo
ton Tor oftener if need be- elect JUS
tees of the Supreme Court and
Judges Of the several County Courts
(except AS Fl mt Judges of the Coun
ty Courts, and also nay elect Major
Generals and acknowledgements,
from time to time, as often as there
shall be occasion
Now let us consider what effect Ar
t.cle % had on this. 1t reads: THE
Judges Of the supreme court shall be
elected bicnnialIy and their term of
office shall be two years" Did this
amendment completely nullity the
other. or was it merely supplement
al? Would the revisors have been
justified in Tn owing out entirely all
la remained Of the old section. and
would tho constitution be complete
Nith Article 20 alone?
Article q. prescribes how often the
Judges OF the supreme court shall be
elected and how long their terms
shall be. II does not prescribe when
hey shall be elected or by whom.
The remnant of Section ., preserved
IN Section 43 by the revisors, sup.
plies just what is lacking and what,
II omitted, (as indeed there was no
warrant for doing) would have left
these absolutely essential features of
the election of justices unprovided
20. The questions of whether the
Justices should be elected by the gen

how. and at what time in the biennial

ter II taken the responsibility Of as

Accordingly, the revisors did the
only thing they could do and the
thing they had absolute warrant TO,
doing. They preserved the remnant
of the original clause in the form of
Section 43 and of course followed it
with Article q embodied in Section
a, the two being essential parts OF
he machinery for the election of the
cou members.
