Taft's Circular.
The Constitution of the United
States in its Fourth Amendment pre
scribes'that "The right of the peo
ple to be securo in their persons,
houses, papers and effects, against
ureasonable searches and seizures,
shall not be violated ; and no war
rants shall issue upon a prolbable
cause, supported by oath or aflirma
tion, and particulaly describing the
place to be searched and the per
sons or things to be seized." In
the Fifth Amendment it prescribes
that "No person shall be h d to
answer, etc.; nor be deprived of
life, liberty or property, without
due process of law ; etc.''
This is the supreme law of the
land, and whoover shall undiertak e
to violate this law, will do so at his
peril. .F or any United States Mar
shal, or Deputy Marshal, or indi
vidual acting in a posse comC1titelU/.'
summoned by i M;Larshal, whether
citizen, State mnilititunan, United
States officer or soldier to violat e
this law, Taft's circular will aflord
1no justification anid 110 prIotection
agalinst legal r'edr1ess and1 daimnages.
The lawv of the Constitution is
super'ior inl authmom ity and in legal
force to any statute of Conmgress and1(
must overrule and1( render null and

inconsisten t with its declar'at ions.
Howu munch less can thue mocre res

of Constitutional law.
Article 1, Section IV, of the Conm
stitution purovides thazt "the Lhnes,
p)laces and nmanneri of holding eice

State by the legislature thereof
but the Congress muay at any time,
by law, makde or alter such recgula~
tions, except asx to thle place of
choosing Senators " Upon this
authority Congress in 1871 passed a
law regulating the time, place and
manner of holding elections for
members of Congress, and( pr1ovid
ing for the applointmnent of United
States Supervisor's to regula tostheir
mode of action and punish any im-,
proper interference withI them ill

This law, according with and subor'

A Dragon in Colorado.
A correspondeut of the Denver
News says: I was traveling horse
back along a stretch of country
which, for a long distance, merits
the appellation of the Great Ameri"
can desert. AB far as the eye cold
reach not a living thing or object
created by the hand of man could
be sec'i. On every side the horizon
only boiumded the view, and not even
where the sky kissed the plain did
aught but the scanty prairie grass,
alh ely bu ned to brown under the
rays of the fast shummnering sun, lift
itself, do; ted lhei e taild thae o by inmi
morable cacti, from mot ier earth. I
Save the quickiy recurring thud of
my horse's hoofs as he loped over
the pr rie, not a sound was to be
hoard, and tho stillness was pro
found.
But the silenco and tho solaindo
wore not for long. As I wats about
to seek a phiceo to build a fire and
bivouac f-r the night, s'iddenly a
lung traaing form started from the
earth, and a queer rumbling cry
was borne to my ears upon the weas
torn wind. Hardly had the sound
died upon the air when an intense
trembling seized my horse,an'1, with
extended nostrils and dislaited eye,
he begun looking on all sides as if
to find a way of eser' po. Ahd now
the sam st irange cry was repeated,
and imiy terrified sight- perceived an
enornoius reptile, hlf serpoit, half
qjuadruped, that was now runninig,
nlow creeping along the earth, with
iner'edible ralpiditv. Althon'i my
limbs almost refused to perform
their oflico for terror, I had turned
mechanically to leap on my horse,
notwitistaidig that I knew tlwt
the pace at which the iionster was
far faster than that of a Ia rno at
full gallop, but the beast had broken
away from where I had tied him,
and quickly devout ing the earth
with rapid feet. Not, howeser,
away from the Coinig danger.
Although destruction st:arued mie
in the face, I almost lost conscio;us
ness of may peril in viewing the
strange scene that followed. As
soon ats the terrible thlnnig pe!reeived
that the horse wa's able to run at it
rate that comipellel an inl'eou enienl
degree of sl 'd to catch il) with
himl), he stutdenly 'fopped in his
career, and for a moena t ro(nmahau(
