The second day was spent in trav-
cling through the Alleghenies by

mines at Coudersport, one of natures
wonderful mysteries. At Niagara, a
good-hearIed Canadian allowed the
BOYS to make use of his riding club
house for sleeping quarters. The
mountains scenes on this days rlue
made a great impression on the boys
most of whom had never been far

we're also amazed at the size of the
small farms. where the only crop
crops grown are timothy, oats ana
buckWheat.
On the third day, through the
courtesy of the Niagara Chamber OF
Commerce the boys were able to go
through the hydro-electric plant at
the falls, the Canadian Shredded
Wheat Plant and the Erie locks
Other places visited during the day
were the .'apids, whirlpools, Goat
Island and the exhibits of the bar
rels in which William Red Hill went
over the tails. Sleeping quarters
tbe third night were made in the
Grange Hall at Caledonia, n. 7.
The next day the boys travelled
along the Finger Lakes. Passing
south along Sunoca Lake they en-
tered Watkins Glenn. the scene OF

which killed 43 people, large trees

passed. Moreover, we have Witness
ed the astounding passage of bills
to prevent our citizens from having
access to the courts to right their
wrongs.
Further, we now see a demand
from the President not to permit
doubts as to the cOnstitutionality of
a proposed law to block its passage.
We listen to constant urgings from
prominent members of this admin
istration that the Constitution must
be revised. These things can have
no other meaning than a continuous
intent to change the Constitution di-
Tectly so as to authorize such ats
and such concentration of powers
to accomplish them indirectly.
mo matter how destructive an
amendment might be and even
though the people were persuaded
to ill-advised action upon it, yea it
would be better for Liberty to COM
nit suicide in the open rather than
to be poisoned by indirection in the
Capital of the Nation.
mo more mOmentOus question has
been raised since the Civil War.
Common frankness requires that
the administration come forward to
the people and declare precisely
wherein under our Constitution we
cannot correct evils and cannot pre-
vent social Embellishments.
THE time has come when these
full purposes should be disclosed. .
The people should now be told open
" the specific words of the exact .
amendment that these gentlemen
want, sot that the people can con-
slider and themselves determine 1t.
