Official Paper of Itasca County, Villages of Grand Rapids and Deer River aud Town of Grand Rapids. Onkr of the a ite enacted by the late unlamented legislature was that prohibiting minors—under twenty-one years of age—from playing pool or bilhards in any public place. There was absolutely no reservation made— the act includes any and all public pool or biliard rooms. Boys between the ages of sixteen and twenty-one will not submit to being tied to their mothers’ apron strings, unless they be sickly imbeciles, who haven’t ambition enough to even enjoy themselves. Healthy, intelligent boys will seek and find such amusements as pool and billiard playing, their parents and the law to the contrary notwithstanding. lf they are not permitted to patronize respectable pool rooms where intox1- cating liquors are not dealt in they will visit far lower resorts where liquor is sold and where they will pro- cureit. This may not be true of all boys, but it 1s applicable to a vast majority of them. We know of cases in Grand Rapids where school boys have been allowed in saloons and were sold “injnn’” whiskey until they be- came stvpidly drunk. If there had been proper places of amusement for the youth of the village, such as pool rooms, there they would have been ivund, instead of in the vile whisky shops where drunkards are made and physical constitutions ruined. It does seem that there 1s no place in the world where so many blooming idiots as' to a state can gain admission legislature. —— +64 Tue Chicago Chronical is one of those alleged Democratic papers that has been boughtand paid for by the Republican party. Such charlatanical hermaphrodites as the Chronical are entitled to the the respect of no party, and no party respects them, ‘They only attract the attention of Republi- cans by their criticisms of the Democ- racy as exemplified by Bryan, Towne and their six and a half million co- patriots, while Democrats only regard them with a contempt unspeakable. Only the other day the Chronical charged Bryan with being responsible for ‘the disruption of the Democratic party” in 1896-90, and thereby driving a million of the *best Democratic voters in the country” out of the party. Tothatend Bryan did his full share—perhaps more than any other one man in the United States—and glory to God that he did so. It was unmasked the hypocrites who had so long muisvepresented the party of Jef- ferson; who brought it nearly to the level of Hannaism under the last ad- ministration of Cleveland. tee Bryan “Tore the keys from off its girdle— “Threw the of truth ajar.” ——— A WinniPcc genius has invented a new voting machine which he de- scribes as follows: “Greatest thing of the age—a dollar-in-the-slot voting and weighing machine; it collects the poll tax, counts the votes and so beautifully discriminates that there'll be no more trouble, no more politics, no more speeches, no more brass! bands, and, best of all, no more bood- lers. The machine only counts the votes of those under a “certain weight. Quick as the party in power begins to get fat on the spoils of office, their votes are thrown out, and the half! starved minority walks in, and when! the new party gets fat, it goes out and so on.” Pete SEES iCKinLey declares emphatically, uneqivocally, that he does not desire and will not accept a third term as/ president, and if it should be tendered | him he would reject a nomination by his party, That settles it.

Hee Coenen THE DISSENTING OPINIO) The dissenting opinion of four of the nine judges of the supreme court of the United States in the Porto Rico cases, is too Jengthy to be given space in the Herald-Review. Nevertheless it is a document that ¢ should be read by every citizen of: this country. The following extracts are taken at random from the the opinions of Chief Justice Fuller and Mr. Justice Harlan, Justices Brewer and Peckham joining them in the dissent. The quotations here given will convey but a very inadequate idea of the arguments presented by the four dissenting justices. Chief Justice Ful- ler says 1M part: “Does this term (the United States) desig- nate the whole or any portion of the Ameri- can Empire ? Certainly this question can ad- mit of but one answer. It is the name given to our great republic, which is composed of stutes ana territories, The District of Columbia, or the territory west of the Mississippi, States than Maryland or Pennsylvania, and it is pot less nec ry on the principles of our constitution that uniformity in the im- position of imposts. duties an excises should be observed in the one case than in the other. Since, then, the power to lay and collect duties imposts and excises, and since the latter, ex- tends throughout the United States, it fol- lows that the power to impose Girect tax also extends throughout the United States.” * * * Chief Justice Marshall held the territories us well as the District of Columbia to be part of the United States for the purpose of national taxation, and repeated in effect what he had already saidin McCullough vs, Maryland V? Wheaton, 408: * Throughout this vast republic, from the St. Croix to the gulf of Mexico, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, revenue is to bo collected and ex- pended, armies are to be marched and sup- ported. * * * In any point of view, the im. osition of duties on commerce operates to regulate commerce, and it is not a matter of local legislation,-and it follows that the levy of these duties was in the exercise of the national power to do so, and subject to the requirement of geographical uniformity, The fact that the proceeds of these duties are de- voted by the act to the use of territory does not make national taxes local, * * * Chief | ustice Fuller then advanced the proposition nunciated in Marbury ys. Madi§on I Cranch, that the constitution was written in order to define and limit and keep within its restrict- ed boundaries all persons and departments of government and meant to leave room for the play and actfon of purely per- sonal and arbitrary power. Of the conte tion that by international law Porto Rico came to us subject to such legislation as congress might enact. Chief Justice Fuller id: The new master was, in this instance. he United States, a constitutional govern- ment with limited powers, and the terms which the constitution itself imposed, which might be imposed in accordance with the constitution, were the terms on which the new master took possession. * * * Chief Justice Fuller absolutely rejected the contention that the rule of uniformity was not applicable to Porto Rico, because it had not been incorporated into and become au integral part of the United States. The word incorporation had no occult meaning, and whatever its situation before, the For- aker act made Porto Rico an organized terri- tory of the United States. He could notac- ; cept the view that even after organized “congress has the power to keep it, like a disembodied shade, in an intermediate state of ambiguous existence for an indetinite period, and, more than that, that after it bad been called from that I'mbo, commerce with it is absolutely subject to the will of con- ae is no less within the United | | about as if they w may prohibit commerce altogether between the states and territorities and may pre- scibe one rule of taxation in one territory and a different rule inanother. The theory assumes that the constitution created a government empowered to require countries throughout the world. to be governed by dif- ferent rules than those obtaining in the original states and territories and substitutes for the present system of government sys= tem of dominant power over provinces in the shape of unrestrictive power. In this way the Porto Rican act authorizing the imposi- tion of this duty is invalid and plaintiff is entitled to recover. Justice Harlan announced his conéurrence with the dissenting opinion delivered by the the chief justice. He regarded the Foraker act as unconstitutitional in its revenue pro- vision, and believed that Porto Rico, after the ratification of the treaty with S| came part of the Umited States. _ Referring to the majority views that the power of our government with respect to new territory is the same power which other nations had been accustomed to exercise, Mr. Harlan said: “I take leave to say that if the princi- ples now announced should ever receive the sanction of a majority of this court, the re- sult will be a radical and mischievous change in our system of government. We will in that event, pass from the era of constitu- tional liberty, guarded and protected by a written constitution, into un era of legisla- tive absolutism, in respect of many rights that are Gear to all people who love freedom. In my opinion congress has no ©: can exercise no authority, outside of the constitution. Still less isit true that con- greescan deal with new territories just as other nations have done or may do with their new territories. This nation is under control of a written constitution, which is the supreme law of the land and the only source of the powers which our government or any branch, or any officer of it, may exercise at any time or any place. Monarchical and despotic governments, unrestrained in their powers by written constitutions, may do with newly acquired territories what. this government may not do consistently with our fundamental law. The idea that this coun- try may acquire territories any where upon the earth, by conquest or treaty, and hold them as mere colonies or provinces, is wholly inconsistent with the spirit and general un- derstanding of, as well as the words of the constitution. The glory of our American system of government is that it was created people against the exercise of arbitary, un- limited power and the limits of which may or may not be passed by the government is created, or by any branch of it, or even by the people who ordained it, except by amendment. It will be an evil day for American liberty if the theory of govern- ment outside of the supreme law of the land finds lodgment in our constitutional juris- prudence. * * * This ‘expanding future of our country’ justifying the belief that the United States is to become what is called a world powe r’—of which so much was heard at the argument—does not justify any such juggling with the words of the constitution as would authorize the courts to hold that the words ‘throughout the United States’ in the taxing clause of the constitution do not embrace ‘a territory of the United States.” This is a distinction which I am unable to make, and which I do not think ought to be mide when we are endeavoring to ascertain the meaning of a great instrument of gov- ernment.” In conclusion Justice Harlan said: “The addition of Porto Rico to the territory of the United States has been re- cognized by direct action upon the part of congress. It has legislated in recognition of the treaty with Spain, If Porto Rico did not by such act becom) apart of the United States, it did become such at least when con- gress passed the Foraker act. I cannot .be- lieve that congress may impose any duty, importor excise with respect to that territory and and its people which is not consigtent | With the constitutional requirement that all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United States.

Tho whirligig of time is forever playing queer pranks. On the billows of this mighty ocean even the greatest of men are tossed re but feather: The latest freak of this relentless force is to send our honored fellow townsman, e) S. Sena- tor Chas. A, Towne. one of the most popular and most conspicuous men in this state— indeed, next to W. J Bryan, one of the most able and most conspicuous men in the democratic party inthe nation--to make his home in New York city. This change— polities considered—may not cause much sur- prise to the people of this state, but it will cause very general regret not only amongst the democrats but the republicans as well, for Mr. Towne is personally exceedingly popular even amongst the. Minnesota republicans. They consider him as a_politically-way ward son, but still they have for hima most kind personal regard. Indeed it will be a matter ot universal regret that by Mr. Towne’s re- moval, the state will lose one of her fure- most citizeni. Of course, the republicans of this state will be able to extract some little consolation from this change of base on Mr. Towne's part, by the reflection that the ablest democratic campaigner in the state will now trouble them no more. Mr. Towne left for NewYork a few daya ago to be absent some two or three weeks and the last of June he expects to remove thither with his wife. Asstated in our last, Mr. Towne is at tho head of anoil company with an authorized capital of 3,000,000, which hopes and expects soon to acquire the title to some 300,000 acres of the most promising Texas oil lands, abont which lands there is now so much excitement. gress, irrespective of constitutional pro- tories any more than are the Phillipine vision.” The logical result is that congress Although mention has been mado of the fact heretofore, stillitmay rot be out of place nee and | by a written constitution which protects the | to agai state the circumsaances under which he was placed at the head of that great cor- poration. Some five or six weeks ago, some of his in- fluential friends and admirersin the south who were at that time ‘on the ground” ut Beaumont, Texas, telegraphed to him, urging him to go down there instanter. As Mr Towne, like a great many other very good men, is far removed from the condition of a pultocrat. he telegraphed back, “what's the use, as I have no money?” To this came tho reply. "There is a fortune in some men’s oumes,” and after some further correspond- ence, he concluded to go down tothe Lone Star state and see whut his friends down there had to offer, and the result of his visit a stat- ed above, and as New York is the money center of the country. and as it was realized by Mr. Towne and his associates that a deal of that magnitude could be financed much bet- ter from New York than from any other point it has been decided that he should remove to that city in course of a very few weeks. Mr. Towne’s prominence in national poli- tics has enabled him to form the personal acquaintance of many wealthy men in the east and as he has a proposition which he claims will commend itself to capitalists, we learn that he has the fullest confidence that he will be able to raise all the money that he may need to carry his huge project through and if he shall succeed in this, his fortune will be made. Well, the removal of Mr. Towne, whovis the idol of the democratic party in this county, and of his estimable wife, will cause s and special regret amongst their legions of friends in this city. All those friends will be exceedingly glad to know, that Mr. Towne, after having “fought a good fight” and after, having greater political and pecuni- ary sal for principle than almost any other man in the nation, now has a fair pros- | pect—through the prominence that his con- | spicnons political career has given him--of { having made up to him far more money than that which he Jost by his refusal to bow his knee to Bail!--Duluth Tribunal.
