transportation Of more than three
gallons of intoxicating liquor a
felony to be unconstitutional. The
act undertook to amend an act

Another liquor law was intro
duced in the senate Monday max
ing it still harder on topers who
have to have their eyeopener.
The new bill makes it a felony to
bring intoxicating liquor into the

ating a large inflow from Cuba
and elsewhere in spite of revenue
agents and the Reed amendment.

Apples Not Killed

It seems that apples have suf-
fered less from the recent freeze
and frost than possibly any other
kind OF fruit. In fact, it is claimed,
that in some states the apple crop
was not materially affected. In
this section it is believed there
will be some apples, but there will
be no peaches aud pears. Other
fruit crops are also seriously dam.

Edward Douglass White

tFrom the New York Tfibune)g'
Edward Douglass White, the de-
parted leader Of the worlds unique
and most powerful judicial tri-
bunal, won renown as a Judge not
surpassed since the ilustrious John
Marshall laid down his work. The
effects OF his labofs Will be felt by
future generations. His influence
Is deeply imprinted on the nation.
The Supreme Court has always
been more than o decider Of specific
cases. It has conceived Of the con.
stitptlon az a growing living
thing, not as frozen and dead. It's
philosophy has, been as important
as It's law; It's action has been
'colored by It's times and it has been

care that the common law should
not represent mere worship or the

tablish q fluent principle Of ccusti-
titlonal Interpretation. Under fancy
with the long continued political
supremacy OF elements which
though a special property interest
was best sheltered by emphasis OF
state rights, there was a reaction,
but Marshall's work, though modi-
fled. was not in the main undone.
During the judicial consulates Of
Chase and Waite, with the adjust
ments incident to the Civil War set
Elements, the Indignation Of the
patton was consummated.
When Justice White came to the
court events were ripe for another
great change. Social questions asI
distinguished from political ones
pressed forward for consideration,
Was the constitution flexible enough
TO permit the nation to minister to
the general benefit concerning, mat
tiers undreamed Of by the fathers .
Justice White, before going on the
bench, had beenta member Of the
Btate rights party and It was as
slmed he was strict constructions
list But the opinions written by
him during 81 years of service show
that he out marshalled Marshall.
He was a great Federalist judge
of the sort jefferson denounced. As
q Louisiana lawyer Justice White
had practiced under the Code Napol
con, and its nationalistic tendencies
are strong. Moreover, he was a
conspicuous Catholic layman and
the polity Of the Roman Church has
seldom favored localism or been
ayerse to centralized authority.
AS man and a public character
the life Of the Chief Justice tells
the old story OF the blessed oppor-
tunity Of American life. Circum-
stances compelled him 10 be SELF
cultured. At IS, while a freshman
at college, the war summons came
and he put on the UNIFORM OF the
confederacy. At the Surrender vi
Port Hudson he became a prisoner
of war. But this was in. the days
before German frightfullness had
raised its head and humane and
cniyairic foes took no delight in cru
city. He was paroled, for 1t was
known that his honor and that OF
his aeighbors would keep him from
further military service. Among his
French neighbors, descendants Of
the Acadians deported from Nova
scotia, he pursued the Guides which
later lowered SO richly aaI gained
