Uniformity h;is proved ftecessary In other subjects,4 also, among them punishment of, crimes and misdemeanors: divorces, elections of state and county officers; rules and procedures Jn court trials; building of highways and support of common schools. Most important of all is uni formity of taxation. Xhls new amendment Li a menace to property and to the fiscal system of the state. It puts a large city, as Port land Is, at the mercy of the non-tax- ! paying element. It detaches Port- 1 land from the conservative rural elec torate. It was enacted' because ft pro ffs.e4 to cetTcal the devested poll tax. Buch enactment as this gives setback to the cause of direct legislation.

The nu cleus of pi .4diene wag a fcupd cf students, and, as everybody knows. ine txerman student is wedded to nis beer mug. Beer Is supposed to make for manliness, cpurage and eUciency 4 some mysterious way. The Kafser uqejured this myth pltilgsly. He told the i'tfung men at Flcmsburg that drink injured thj;'r JieaUh and dulle,d tbeij Jntellisenee. Far from Jppreas- liig 'hir 1'icifncj,-, It handicaps tbem.

The notion that strong drink Increases a person's endurance, makes tiis Bervis'steaUy", irlglUer.s"iLj "facul ties, and so on. Is all a mistake. What It really does is to' stupefy the Intelli gence so that the drinker imagines himself stronger and wittier while in reality his powers are, impaired. Work which demands the highest grade of nervous energy can only be intrusted to abstainers. Scientific instruments have been invented which register the effects of alcohol upon the system, and with (heir aid it Is, prqvsd that a very small quantity s eufliclent to' take off th keen edge of eiliclency.
