County Not to Furnish Seed.

IN reply to a communication from
Governor S. Y. Stewart submitting
the petition of a number of farmers
requesting legislation looking to the
aid of farmers whose crops for 1914
failed on account of drouth, hail, etc,
and asking whether in his opinion
amy assistance might be rendered the
petitioners Attorney General ID. M,
Kelly holds that the tax proposed
authorizing counties to issue bonds or
warrants to procure seed grain Tor
needy farmers "would not be for a
public purpose, and that it would. in
effect. be confiscation OF property If
carried to it's logical conclusions, and
therefore unconstitutional.
Attorney General Kelly says, in
part:
''While it is true that OUR constitu-
ton provides that counties shall pro
vide for the poor, our constitution
also has intended and does provide
that private property shall not bf
taken for public or private use with
out due compensation. The one prln
ciple is as formally establish ed as the
other, and both must be given weight
Such a law as the one proposed Wonll
open the door to every manner of ap-
peal for taxes.
If it were done in this case nc
class of labor nor any industry coult
be denied the same right. Any eco
nomic condition which reduces the
circumstances of the different CLASSES
OF labor, or of different industries
VIII ether it was farm labor, miners OF
whether the industries were mines
numbering or manufacturing, all
would be equally entitled to have the
public, through the power of taxation
bear it's burdens, and, as pointed gu
above by the supreme court of Maine
this evidently would result in mere
conhscation or a taking OF private
property for private uses.

Cincinnati the Only Poor Town al
Present, Says Tener.

Cincinnati. Aug 12-John X. Tener.
president of the National League, is pay
ing a visit to Garry Hermann, president
of the National Commission, here, and
he expresses himself as being we'll salts
fed with baseball conditions in his league.
He said:
IF I am not mistaken, Cincinnati is
the only town where the attendance has
not returned to normal. and there are,
of course, good reasons, the team stick
ing at the bottom and the weather. In
every other city I was astonished at
the turn-outs that thronged the parks.
At Chicago. for instance, every seat was
sold early Sunday. Apparently, business
and financial conditions are coming back
to proper standards, and the fans are
being drawn out again by the wonder
full race which six clubs of the National
League and four of the American League
are putting up. The crowds are not
only back to normal size again, but are
showing the enthusiasm that prevailed
two years ago.
1.-The race, particularly in the National.
is enough to drive a careful calculator
to despair. Look at the way the Brook
lyn club has come up in the last few
days. Look at the results of Tuesday,
Pittsburgh shooting up into third place,
Chicago and New York falling down and
yet in position to step right up again"

BIG YACHT NOW JUNK
AFTER SIX WEEKS USE

Neponset Mass. Aug. 12.-Alexander
Smith Cochran's schooner yacht Sea Call.
after being in commission only six weeks,
is now being broken up for scrap in
the yards OF her builders here.
The Sea Call is a splendid sailing yacht
with auxiliary gasoline engine. 1t Is be-
ing knocked to pieces on account OF the
disintegration of her bottom through
electrical action.
The electrolyss which has damaged the
bottom of the boat is said to be due
to the use of a steel skeleton and bot
tom of monel metal, an expensive alloy
composed Of. roughly, two parts nickel
to one part copper, with small additions
of other metals. Monel metal has been
used much about ships because 1t re-
quires no painting, and is susceptible OF
high polish. and thus adds speed to the
vessel on whose hulls it is used.
The Sea Call, which was launched In
April, and commissioned June 26, was
2l5 feet long, and had a 34l-foot beam.
She had made fourteen knots before a
fair wind. How much the boat cost
could not be ascertained yesterday. but
inasmuch as she was luxuriously fitted
out. and as the cost of monel metal
is high, it is considered certain that
it is we'll up in the hundreds of thous-
ands.
