Mrs. M. Brooks. would like to have Hon. Page Morris, ley “‘toudey” answer: 1st. Has congress any power except constitution? - If;’so,.. will you net be good enough to tell -from. what source such power has been obtained? 2nd. Which is the higher authority, the consitution which has been legal- ly deflined as “‘the supreme law of the land,” or a mere law of congress which can be passed one day, or one year, and repealed the next? 8rd. In statecraft, does the dog wag the tail, or the tail wag the dog? Or in other words, does the constitu- tion wag congress, or does congress wag theconstitution? Ifyou say that the congress wags—that is, controls —the constitution, isn’t it rather re- versing the natural order cf things, for the creature to control the crea- tor? , 4th. As the constitution defines what congress may do, and as our highest courts have decided again and again, that a legislative body —a congress ora state legislature— has no power except that which is specifically granted to it by the con- stitution of the United States, or the state, as the case may be, and as our constitution certainly nowhere gives congress the power of deciding how far the constitution may extend and when it shall extend over any newly- aquired possessions, and, as the con- stitution in the case of the Louisana purchase,” and again in the case of all the vast territory subsequently ac- quired from Mexico, and still later in the vast territory of Alaska, purchas- ed from Russia, was held to attach to gach one of those newly-acquired pos- sessions just as soon as we had acquir- ed the legal and the equitable title thereto, can it be possible that that venerable instrument is incapable of being stretched,—just a little bit— once more?

There has been nothing done by the administration, however, and the probability is that it has decided to droptheinquiry. Referring to this Orienta) menace to labor, the Denver Post'says: ‘‘In localities where exper- ieuces has been had with Asiatic labor, as, for instance, in Wyoming, the people have become thoroughly alarmed at the increasing danger by the fact that the administration, if not in sympathy with this variety of warfare aga{nst the American labor, is prevented by the trust influence from doing anything towards check- ing the eviland mitigating its disas- trous consequences. Organized cap- ital’s demand for cheap labor is to be found at the bottom of the importa- tion of Japanese. There is no exclus- ion act to prevent their coming, and they will become a menace to the American labor before many months will have passed.

What 1s going on now is simply the prelude to a grand revolution in the fall elect- ion.” The Jappanese laborers engag- ed in railroad work on the Mesaba may be the forerunners of a horde of these cheap workers who may soon be found working in the iron mines and crowding out the white miners. {—Duluth Herald, e W.C.
