A suit in which the people Of the District
OF Columbia should. and probably will be
much interested was filed today in the
Supreme Court of the District. Its object
Is to restrain an institution which calls
Itself the Hahnemann Homeopathic Uni
versity from operating within District terri
tory. The prime mover in the matter is the
Homeopathic Medical Society Of the District
and II has taken action because 1t regards
the proposed university as a Islander on
homeopathy and because II believes the
public welfare is threatened by the manner
In which the so-called university Is being
run. The merits of the case will be fully
discussed in court. but that there is reason
for the Institution Of proceedings Is evil
denced in a very interesting recital Of
experiences related by Pauline Pry" in
the news columns of today's Star. 1t Is
unfortunate that there Is really no law
here by which illegal practitioners may be
restrained. but II is possible that In spite
of the absence of a specific statute some
way may be found to protect society from
those who would prey upon it in the guise
of physicians.

South Carolina was much disturbed when
the dispensary liquor-law went into effect
and from that day to this those who were
a minority at the polls and in the legisla-
tUre have done their utmost to annul the
statute. At no time was there a prohibitive
proposition. the most rigid bill introduced
made possible Il e sale and purchase of in
toxicants. But Arkansas has gone a long
step further than did South Carolina when
1t elected a legislature that provided for
state barrooms. At the recent Arkansas
state election the question of license or no
license was directly voted upon. Complete
returns have been certified to the Secretary
of State. and those returns show that ~, 6s2
people voted for continuing the license sys-
TEN. while 49, voted to make the liquor
traffic Illegal. There can therefore be no
doubt whatever as to the sentiment of the
majority of those who voted; 1t is unfor-
tunate that the total vote expressed in the
above figures is only about 30 per cent of
the state vote 1t would be a surprise to a
great many people if Arkansas should iegis-
late favorably to prohibition. Southern
state have, somehow or other, always been
regarded as having decidedly alcoholic ten

More conspicuous than any other of the
many eulogies of Senator Hill made public
since the Senator's nominal ton for gov
ernor Is that which was trumpeted across
the continent and over the storm-swept
surface of the world of waters by Mr. John
Boyd Thacher. who was himself a seeker
after the lottery ticket which Senator Hill
secured possession of. Said MIR. Thatcher:
Senator Hill is the Henry of Navarro of
the democratic party. The very sight of
his white plume throws CONSERVATION into
the ranks of the enemy, and wherever on
the field Of battle that plume waves, there
TIE democratic hosts gather in confidence
and hope" Isn't Mr.. Thatcher in error
about that plume business? Did not his
minds eye see the silvery waves that COM
pose the crest of w. c. p. Breckinridge, or
the towering pennon of fretful silk that
warns Of the approach Of Constantine
Buckley Kilgore? Senator Hill is well
known in Washington by this time-has
been feature at the Capitol for quite a
while-but not even those who have OBJ
served him most closely have seen the
plume to which Mr.. Thatcher refers. 1t
Is generally understood that Senator Hills
metaphorically-leNe Ell head ia bald even to
an extreme-it certainly Was when he left
washington; but 1t may be that since his
departure for New York he las fallen into
the hands of hair-restoring firm and been
provided with plume which Is guaranteed
to throw CONSERVATION into the ranks of
the enemy" If Mr.. Thatcher knows what
ne Is talking about, then the much Wanted
enterprise of New YORK newspapers does
not exist, for every picture of the Senator
published during the past week represents
him as being plumeless

In spite Of the fact that there was seem
ing agreement between the police commits
sioners Of New York city and Superintend-
ent Byrnes as to the necessity of a yigor-
Gus enforcement Of the excise Law, 1t Is
now giaringiy evident that q material diff
ference Of opinion exists. President Martin
Of the police board and Commissioner John
C. Sheehan. who represent Tammany in
the little but powerful organisation that has
done 80 much to corrupt New Yorx's police
force. are surely out Of temper because Of
the sudden assumption of independence by
BIN whom they had deemed their subor-
dinate- Commissioner Martin endeavors to
be diplomatic. and has to some extent con-
cealed the resentment he unquestionably
feels. but Commissioner Sheehan declares
openly that he Goes not want the police to
act like sneaks spies in getting evil
dence against the liquor dealers. The dis
tinctiou which Sheehan makes is one to
which no good citizen can for a moment
assent. Amy breach of the law is an of
Tense. and while it is possible for a police
man to do discreditable thing in order to
bring about the arrest of an offender, very
few officers are guilty of misconduct when
on the trail Of a law breaker. Commits
sioner Sheehan WILL of course, admit that
II Is perfectly proper for a policeman to
doff his uniform and to wear almost any
sort of disguise while endeavoring to cap
ture a burglar or a murderer. but he draws
the line when the police "act like sneaks or
spies" in getting evidence against the liquor
dealers A liquor dealer who obeys the law
Is in no sense to be regarded as even a
INSTRUMENTATION are very many men
engaged in the sale of intoxicants who are
In the front rank of prominent business
men-but a liquor dealer who wilfully breaks
and thus defies the law. stands on pre-
ctseiy the same level as any other enemy to
the well-being of the community and the
country. Commissioner Sheehan and every
one else who knows anything at all about
police work must be aware of the impossi-
bility of securing evidence against opera
tors of speak-easies and others of their kind
by policemen in uniform: well go hunting
a pickpocket with a brass band in a wagon
on the sides of which the purpose of the
expedition is set forth in large letters.
Superintendent Byrnes is evidently doing
the right thing at last. He has broken loose
rom unwholesome domination and will en-
Force all of the law so long as there is any
law to enforce.

The expedition sent to Northern Labrador
by the University of Pennsylvania is now
on its way home after two months success
full work. Details of the discoveries made
have not yet been published but it is an
nounced that three rivers of considerable
size were explored, and a good deal of sir
veying was done. Two members of the
party tramped 10 miles into the interior
and found some most remarkable cataracts
and rapids. Some of the geographical dis
coveries are said to be of great value Will
the natural history collection of the expedi-
ton is declared to be extremely interesting
A brief interview with Prof. Hite who was
In charge of the party. quotes the professor
as saying that Labrador is a wonderful
country. In the interior are deep valleys,
large rivers and great forests; also indica-
tons of mineral deposits. The timber lands
and minerals lakes and water courses con-
stitute. in the professors opinion rich DO
tentialities 1t is generally understood that
the scientist is true cosmopolite; his la
bors are for all minkind. But il is never
theless somewhat strange that an American
institution of learning should pay such
attention to UNEMPLOYED regions belonging to
Great Britain. while there is so much of
unknown territory beneath the Stars and
I'u ipcS. II may De, however, that some sort
CT reciprocal arrangement could be made
by which the British government would ex-
pfore Alaska in return for the energy and
cash which is being expended by the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania in Labrador. 1t
does appear as though the United States
was too stingy to do any more than sail
around the coast of an undoubtedly valua-
Bile piece of property. Possessed by this
country for rearly thirty years. Alaska is
still practically an unknown land A few
OF the Hudson Bay Companys trappers
have seei. good deal of It, and Fred
Schwatka opened some eyes with his story
OF the valley of the Yukon, but With those
exceptions. the interior has not been dis
turbed by either the scientist or the searcner
after material wealth. The western edge,
where tourists go, has been visited by
great many people, but the vast extent of
inner Alaska, where valuable timber, rich
mineral deposits and much else of conse-
quence to commercial nation are to be
found. is an almost unbroken blank on gov
ernment maps.

There Is dissensicn among the politicians
of the Tenth Massachusetts Congressional
district. Many anxious ard influential men
have struggled for the nomination which
will carry with the privilege of spending a
good deal of money while searching for a
majority of the votes in the Tenth District
a: the November election. In the hurly-
burly which is almost necessarily a part
of the primary proceedings. the democrats
of the Tenth evidently lost sight of him
who was once their favored son-Michael
Joseph McEttrick-and nominated someone
entirely unknown to fame. Naturally in
censed at such neglect, Mr.. McEttrick made
up his mind to start out on his own hook
as it were. and has announced himself as
an Independent democratic candidate and as
such will run in November next. The true
meaning. in all its fullness. of the an
nouncement that Mr.. McEttrick will run
will not be appreciated by the great Ameri-
can multitude. Running for Congress does
not necessarily involve any great amount
of physical eNsrtion. nor is the race often
preceded by a course of training. but the
running which is to be done by Mr.. Nc
Ettrick will surely have athletic charac-
teristics. In a biographical sketch furnished
the editor of tn. Congressional Directory
by 1lr. McEttrick himself. it is stated, by
Mr.. NcEttrick, in speaking of Mr.. Meet
trick, that his symmetrical and splendid
physique is partially due to his taste for
athletics. which he developed early in life;
by the time he had reached his majority
he had won a national reputation for pow
ers Of strength. activity and endurance. and
a record for wrestling. leaping and pedes-
trianism which for a long time remained
m He won the long distance no
destrian championship of America in 1862
and during his long athletic career never
met with defeat"
The regular democratic nominee may have
