e1LcRIsT's POSITION

Under Article XIX of the Flor
ida Constitution, the people re-
served to themselves the sole
right to declare for or against
Prohibition. No Legislature can
pass statewide Prohibition meas
.ures until the people have by a
majority vote declared for chang
ing the Constitution to provide
for such a change by Legislative
enactment,
Every member of the Legisla-
ture or other officer of the state
swears to uphold the Constltu-
ton. The Constitution OF the
United States provides that Con-
gress shall pass no law that VIII
interfere with or abridge the
rights of the several individual
States of the Union. Thus, 1t
will be seen, that a member OF the
limited States Senate who takes
the position for or against Ma
tional Prohibition without acting
according to the voice of the ma
ioritv of the voters within has
IState is violating the Constltu-
ton in such action.
Bryan and Trammell have
promised, if elected, to vote Tor
National Prohibition whether the
State votes for Local Option OF

will not uphold the Constitution

disease. When the bowels become
clogged with refuse from the stomach,

Nine Known Dead In
Fire in Copper Mine

Butte, Mont, Feb. l5.-Nine persons
were known to be dead this afternoon
as the result of fire that for hours
famed in the Pennsylvania mine of
the Anaconda Copper company. The
presence of live horses in the lower lev
els led, too, to the hope that some of
tne l2 missing 'Nen, believed to be en-
tombed, are still alive, Reports that
most of the missing men had probably
gone home without registering proved
erroneous.
The company forced water down the
air shaft while rescue crew tried to
penetrate the smoke filled levels.
Some Of the dead men were horribly
burned, while Others were suffocated
in struggling to reach the air.
The fire started 1900 feet under
ground in an air shaft late last night
from an unexplained cause. 1t gained
headway rapidly.
Two men, Assistant Foreman Mitchell
and Neil Brennan perished while help.
ing others at the 600 foot level. Three
men suffering from partial asphyxiation
and burns are in hospitals but prob
ably will recover. The men missing are
believed to have gone to their homes.
Authorities are checking up their lists,
ard have already started an investiga-
tion rs to the cause. In some quarters
plot was suggested, though not gem
orally credited.

Judge Webster Will
Stay in the Running

That measure provides that Judges Of
the supreme court and all other courts
shall be elected for a term Of six years.
Judge Webster holds that Justice of
the peace comes under the term "and
other courts, and therefore, as he was
elected in 1912, his term will expire
with the year 1918.
Many legal authorities agree with the
judge that a justice Of the peace is a
court and entitled to hold for a term
of six years The question as to wheth.
er a county Judge was a court has been
decided by the supreme court. This
court gave its opinion that the law re-.

six year term, but no decision was Civ.

before the court.
Anyhow, the judge says his hat is al

to act as justice of the peace until the

highest court in the state decides that
