in the unusual opportunity now prevailing, ism t
it rcasonahl, to assume that, before he urged it,
he had taken into account the possibility that
some of the European nations now at war might
object to the application of it, and found salts
factory solution to that possibility? That is the
one great objection the opponents of the bill have
raised TO it--isnt it reasonable to assume the
president had sense enough, facing the situation
and considering all the circumstances to antici-
pata il And therefore ism it reasonable to make
the final assumption that, having done so, the
president selected the wisest and best course?
To us it seems reasonable to grant him at least
that much foresight. To assume for one minute
that president Of the United States, let alone so
shrcwd a reasoner and so cool-headed statesman
as the present executive, would openly advocate
a policy that might place the United States IN
diplomatic conflict and strained political relations
with at least four of the most powerful countries
of the world calls for a greater stretch OF the
imagination than any of which we are capable.

VIOLATING THE STATE CONSTITUTION.

The legislature Of a state, above all individuals
and all organizations, is presumed to follow the
mandates of the state constitution; if it did not,
there would be no need of having such docu-
ment. Yet the present is the third session OF the
state legislature since the federal census IN 1910
and the express mandate Of the constitution that
the legislative districts shall be re-apportioned
after each census upon the basis Of population,
has been fagrantly and purposely disregarded up
to this time.
1t is possible that the fact that such re-
districtmg would eliminate either Sims or
McArde has had something to with this defiant
and Haunted violation of the constitution, for 1t
was an open secret two years ago that they pre-
vented re-apportonment at that session and
McArde is now credited with having enough
pledges to prevent such action at this session.
The mere matter of state constitution, ap-
parently, does not bother McArdle so long as the
violation of it is useful to him.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

He stands before us today as the ideal of a man
who made good in crisis. He is pictured to us
as one who saw duty to do and did it, being
influenced not at all by expediency, deciding all
on the question of what was right and what was
wrong. Many stories have been told of his
homely, clean humor, his sympathetic heart
interest, his many acts of kindness, of reprieve
and pity the stalwart nature of his character
his Christian fidelity, his fortitude in times of
great trial, his essential democracy and human
ness. He was great man, lonely man, man

alike now approves. He came to us when we
needed him; today we do him honor.

ALI S5
Fighting is Described by Swiss
Soldiers and Guides as
Most Picturesque.
esr AsseelArED rakss,

GENEVA, July 22-Swiss soldiers
and guides bring some picturesque
details of the fighting between Italy
and Austria in the Alps around Stel-
VIC Pass, nine thousand feet high.
and the neighbortng heights over
looking the Va1teline valley.
Stelvio Pass is an important back
door entrance into Italy. threatening
Milan. It swas strongly fortified by
the Austrians and manned by
large body of mountain artillery. The
Italians ghave similarity fortified
other passes nearby, and there are
deadly artillery duels, while at night
the whole district is swept by search
lights. Swiss soldiers on sentry
| watch over the scene. Near the
point where the Swiss, Italian and
Austrian frontiers meet there are
several villages where the inhabN-
ants all speak half dozen languages
and dialects.
The principal pass was buried un-
der two feet of snow when war began
between Austria and Italy, but the
Austrian AIpinists cleared pain
straight to the summit, ana recently
iehting has been taking place above
the clouds, which cut on both sides
from view of their bases and sup
porting artillery below. SO that they
have to depend for orders and in
structions on the field telephone.
The Italian batteries on the lover
ridges obtained exact range OF the
summit of the pass after few ex-
periments, and they keep up conttn-
ual cannonade, firing through the
clouds, of course without seeing the
result of their schots.
The Red Cross workers on botn
sides experience the greatest diMcul-
ties In reaching the wounded at iso-
lated places In the upper ranges. The
nurses In this district must quality
as skilled Alpinists.
Smugglers are making huge sums
through dealings In tobacco. matches,
salt and other articles whose export
is forbidden by all three countries
Most of the smugglors are young
women. who climb many thousand
feet, into the passes with their little
bundles of goods. The soldiers sci.
dom insist on strict observance or the
expectation rules in these cases. ana
even the officers buy their wares
gladly. Young Swiss women are able
to sell five cent cigars, at . profit fof
ten or fifteen cents each, although
the price is scarcely exhorbitant
when 1t is considered that the young
woman must make q trip OF sevaral
miles along the most perilous noun
tain roads and run the risk OF being
shot as a SPY in order to reach her
market.
