is undoubtedly kindly and charitable
to help victims Of the liquor habit
along The road to sObriety, but the
growing disposition to make them
wards OF the state appears to be car.
rying the movement too far. The
Maryland Legislature has passed
bill providing that any habitual
drunkard or drug user may, upon up.
plicatlOn to q county Judge, be sent
to an institution for the medical
treatment of drunkenness ut the cost
of the State. This will involve q
great expense to the taXpayers-an
expense which should not be imposed
upon them. There is no more reason
why dipsomaniacS should receive the
services of specialists at the public
charge than that rheumatlcs or
paralytics or people afflicted with
consumption should be packed of to
high-priced private sanitariums. The
Maryland law allows 800 for each
case, and II any considerable number
of liquor users avail thcmsclvc, OF the
opportunity offered the State will
have to issue bonds to meet the ex.
pense. The matter is one for private
charity and individual effort The
dipsOmaniacs are no more entitled to
special consideration than are the
ordinary run OF invallds.

THERE Is nothing parsimonious
about the British Government when
II comes to dicker for spy service.
II seems that the notorious lie Caron
had an agreement whereby his serv.
Ices were to yield him an annuity
of five thousand dollars while he
lived, with life insurance of one
hundred thousand dollars. The bar.
gain Is said to have been made by
the London Times and accredited to
English enterprise IN journalism. It
Is more probable, however, as alleged
by other newspapers, that the
British Government footed the bill.
and that the Times merely secured
early information of the spy's dis.

TIE introduction OF electricity has
doubtless very largely curtailed the
demand for common horses. such as
formerly were sold 10 the street. car

a drug In the market. Good horses
for carriage work or teaming pur.
poses have not shown much decline,
and 1t is safe to predict that no adap.
tation OF steam or electricity will ever
destroy the love that man has for
handling good horses. As the wealth
