preme Court Upheld as Proper.

The adoption of proposed amend
ment No. 10 was urged by William
Jennings Bryan. former secretary of
state, in an address last night, speak
ing over the long distance telephone
from Omaha, Neb., to Little Rock,
whence the speech was relayed by
Judson King, manager of the cam
paign for the amendment, to The
Graphic, and to Hot Springs, jones'

Answers Objections.
Mr.. Bryan's speech, in which he an
swered objections made to the meas
ure. as relayed to The Graphic fol-
lows:
81 favor the adoption of amendment
No. 10, which provides for the ex-
tension of the initiative and refer
endum, and suggest the following an
swers to objections which have been
brought to my attention:
"First-The item which authorizes
counties and municipalities to legis-
late on local matters. Some say. it
will authorize counties and munich
palities to vote the saloon back. l
am sure the yare mistaken. No coun-
ty, city or town can repeal a state
wide law or nullify provision OF the
state constitution.
"Second-Some object to the pro-
vision requiring a three-fourths vote
of the legislature to repeal a law
adopted by the people. There is no OBJ
lection to this. A majority of the leg
;slature NAV not represent majority
of the people. That is why the peo-
nile adopted laws for the election of
limited States senators direct instead
of election thru the legislature. 1t
is only fair to require three-fourths
majority. This provision can not work
a hardship because law enacted by
the people can be repealed by ma
jority fthe people under the initiative
and referendum.
"Third There is no objection to re-
curing a unanimous court to declare
a people's law unconstitutional. If
a majority of the court has authority
to declare a peoples law unconstitu-
tional. then one member of the court,
should the court be evenly divided, can
put his opinion above the opinion OF
majority of the people.
"These are answers | suggest to OBJ
iections to amendment No. Is which
have been made to me.
"Say to the people that l am sorry
I can not come there and speak to
them directly on this proposition, but
I am busy helping to secure a pro:
hibition amendment in Nebraska, and
helping to carry Nebraska for Will

Potash and Phosphates.

The agricultural department of the
University of Illinois has published an.
other report dealing with the soils Of
this state and the fertilizers which
they need. This new investigation.
like the last. shows that Illinois farm
ers need not worry about potash. With
the exception OF swamp lands our soils
have all the potassium salts they need.
and the addition OF more is stimu-
liant rather than food.
What Illinois land usually does lack
is phosphorus. and the United States
has q plentiful supply of phosphate
rock. This is good news to farmers
who had been taught that the lack Of
German potash would cut down their
crops. It tends likewise to stimulate
an American industry which was be-
ing hidden behind clever foreign ad.
vertising. By the time this war is
over, America will know how much
potash fertilizer It really needs, and
what the stun il worth on the SOIL

HARVARD EIGHT FAVORITES
OVER THE YALE OARSMEN

Yale. The freshman race was moved up
to $3.50 a. m. and the second varsity race
to 10 a. m. The time for starting the var
slty race was postponed until 5:45 p m.
Captain Low represented Yale and Captain
Morgan and Coach Herrick represented
Harvard at the conference with Referee
Meikleham. They made the following an
nouncement:
"At a meeting held yesterday afternoon
between the Yale and Harvard University
crew representatives and the referee of the
races II was unanimously decided that owing
TO the probability of a postponement OF the
morning races and the danger OF a further
postponement until Saturday. and in view
of the fact that certain members OF the
crews must report for military service
not later than Friday night. the hours
for rowing the morning races should be
changed and the freshman race be rowed
at $3.50 o'clock down stream on the lower
two miles and the second varsity at 10
o'clock over the same course If either or
both of these races cannot be rowed at
these hours. either or both will be rowed
at any hour either upstream or down
stream at the discretion OF the referee up
to IL noon. If either or both cannot be
rowed In the morning either or both post
poned races viii be rowed not later than
4:45 p. m. down stream on either the upper
or lower courses at the discretion OF the
referee. At the meeting 1t was decided
that the varsity race should be rowed down
stream at b:45. Yale and Harvard very
much regret the advisability OF this change
from the original program, but have deemed
II absolutely necessary on account OF the
orders which members of the crews have
received 10 report for military duty not
later than Friday night"
