As to Baggage Inspection.
Ie Editor Of Tho Evening Star.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Having noticed some Of the pros and
cons concerning the examination of bag
gage by custom house officials 1t occurs to
me that this Is like most other questions
one with two sides. Too many people do
not look beyond their own personal inter
ests, experience or prejudice in thinking Of
or discussing the question. It may easily
be that there are ungentlemanly, arrogant
or even dishonest customs officials. 1t is
probably true, however. that the great ma
jority Of them are thoroughly competent
and do the best they can according to in
structions and circumstances Probably no
system Of baggage inspection possible to be
devised, short Of taking the passengers
word for everything, would suit everybody
and that might suit every one except the
officials charged with seeing that our tariff
laws are fully obeyed. They would know
by long experience that such a system
would result in millions of dollars worth
of dutiable goods being smuggied into this
country every year. for human nature is
prone to err, and the tendency to smuggle
is one Of the manifestations of this ten
dency, tendency not confined to any one
class Of people, but found among high and
low. This tendency is known to none so
we'll as to those charged with the inspec-
ton of baggage. and probably few others
would believe the extent to which the
smuggling habits manifests itself While
the total number of would-be smugglers is
large. the percentage of travellers with
smuggling tendencies is small. Say for ar
gument-and it may not be far from the
truth-that only one person in hundred
who crosses the ocean would smuggIe
under any circumstances. The customs
officials are after that one. and if they
knew to a certainty which one was the
guilty party they would no doubt gladly
leave the ninety and nine unmolested. But
that ds obviously Impossible. That it may
be necessary to examine the baggage of
say ninety of the hundred in order to find
the one guilty party is no doubt annoying
under the most favorable circumstances,
and one can scarcely blame honest people
for chafing under the necessity Of baggage
inspection. This. however. seems to be one
OF the necessities of the case TO which all
lava biding citizens should yield with as
much good grace as possible. SO long as
there is no unnecessary humiliation or de-
lay. If the customs officials are unnecessari-
ly slow. severe or offensive they give good
cause for complaint, and such cause for
grievance should be reduced to a minimum.
The Secretary of the Treasury is right in
asking his petitioners to be explicit. for a
petition couched only in general terms can
of necessity have but little effect.

JUST CONTEMPLATION.
Election of Old Officers Guarantees Big Fail
Next Year.

From every section of the State come
highest praises for the management of
the Fair Of 1902. President Long, Secre-
tary Joseph E. Pogue and Treasurer
benson are receiving most deserved
commentator for their invaluable ser
vices and the greatest satisfaction is
expressed everywhere over the re-elec-
ton of these officers, which insures the
success of next year.
The Fair this year has broken all
records and the warm words of praise
which have come to the officers are
most deserved.
Mr. Pogue, whose services as secretary
of the Fair for the past four years have
met with unprecedented success, in
speaking of the Fair says it is the pur
pose of the management to make the
1903 Fair the best on record. All other
pledges made with reference to having
a clean and attractive Fair were carried
out and the same policy will characterize
the officers next year.

pAINESCELERY
COMPOUND
Makes Permanent Cures in
Chronic and Complicated
Cases of Rheumatism.
1t Gives New Life to Helpless
and Crippled Men and
Women.

Professor Edward z. Phelps. NJ. D.,
Ii. D., has given to his profession a
positive and permanent cure for all
forms of rheumatism from which so
many suffer in the autumn season. To
the rheumatic. this truth should prove
encouraging and comforting. Men and
women suffering intense agonies from a
disease that frequently stiffens the joints,
cripples the limbs and renders its vic
tins quite helpless, can be restored to
activity, vigor and health, if Paine's
celery Compound be used for a few
weeks. There is every reason why suf-
ferers should pin their faith to this best
of medicines. Your friends and neigh
bors have used it with success; the hon
est physician is prescribing it every day
in cases where all other means have
failed, and they are delighted with the
happy results. Why hesitate, or doubt
the powers, virtues and efficacy of the
medicine that is curing thousands today?
1t is your only hope; your safety and life
depend upon it's use. Lizzie Pierce
Folger, Tenn, once helpless and in a
critical condition from rheumatism,
writes thus:
Il had rheumatism so bad that I could
not walk. and could not bear to have my
legs moved; I often thought the disease
would kill me. l commenced taking
Paine's Celery Compound; l used two
bottles and have not had the slightest
symptom of rheumatism since. I wish
could tell the whole world the good your
medicine has done me. My mother, who
had rheumatism for years, was cured by
Paine's Celery Compound after using a
few bottles. She can run now like a
child, and says she feels ten years young
er. I could tell you of dozen OR more
people who were cured by Paine's Celery
