MODERN METHODS.

FREDERICK COUNTY, Maryland, is going to
float 100000 bond issue for school purposes
That probably not particularly interesting piece
ofsws this west, but the way the people Of the Mary

They began by having complete survey of school con-
ons made Itind:catcd that it would cost about $685.
600 % construct buildings and make all the repairs
and improvements that really needed but was dis
covered that 100000 is about all the county could
do a this time the program scaled down TO that
figure
To do even that much it will be necessary to appeal to
The legislature for enabling acts and bills for that purpose
beng drawn up. 1t is felt that with the survey

Attorney General Palmer, who is deyotins most Of
his time these days to running for the presidency made
speech at the National Press last night in which
he declared that the great need the hour in this
country is machinery to adjust differences in industry
before they get to the point strike 1t cannot be
claimed by even the most ardent Palmer supporter that
there is anything original in that statement The
rlc of this country have been listening 10 that kind of
talk for many weary Mr. Palmer to the contrary
notwithstanding, the great need of the hour is man

The French government. 1t is now reported is going
to make determined opposition to any changes in the
Versailles treaty which would modify her claims against
Germany and it is to be hoped that her statesmen will
have the resolution to hold to that position to the end
The softenng toward Germany is bit hard to under
stand. There is aound sense in the theory that the
safety of the world depends upon restoring prosperity
to Europe but Germany is not the whole Of Europe BY
any means and If the reconstruction is made too easy
for Germany in an economic the people of that
country who have not yet undergone any spiritual

AMENDING THE CONSTITUTION.

NEW JERSEYS attack upon The prohibition amend.
ment to the federal constitution is an even more direct
movement than that Of the state Of Rhode Island. and be-
fore is disposed of il may change the popular under
standing Of the scope of the clauses Of the fundamental law
which make provisions for amendment
Il has always been the popular belief that it was within
the power Of the people to change the constitution at any
time and any way they wanted to BY pursuing the method
set forth in the constitution itself New Jersey in substance
takes the stand that this is an error and that there are some
things that the people may not do in The way Of constitution
There are some other features Of the New Jersey bill
Of particulars but that is the outstanding one and If the
high court holds that this theory wei taken there will be
