The Anderson bill regulating the sale OF
cocaine is legislation badly needed. While
the 'f1end" will always find a way to gel
the drug which he considers necessity
there are many who have formed the
habit by thoughtless use of cocaine to re-

its effects than opium, the later discovery
has been sold until now as freely as qui:
nine. While it's use is being restricted
legislation ought to go further and pre-.

Roosevelt Is Elected.

The election of Theodore Roosevelt
to the presidency yesterday was ac-
complished without any Of the excite
ment that accompanied the election Of
R. B. Hayes in 1876. In that election
the "college" was all mussed up and
it took the two houses Of congress and
the supreme court to straighten it out.
It is curious fact, however, that
congress never has made any rules
whereby the selection of president
could be put beyond the guessing stage.
The contesting a close election is just
as possible today as it was thirty years
ago, when the country. was on the brink
Of rebellion, or would have been had
Mars Henri Watterson led the 100000
men he thought Of raising, to Washing
ton. Watterson never raised the men
and never led them, and there was no
fight. He remembered. in time that
Grant was at the White House, and,
having gone against him once before, he
did not banker for a second experience.

INSIST ON
POISON
THEORY

Honolulu, March 17.--Edmund Shorey.
chemist OF the United States Agricultural
station and Doctors Wood. Murray and
Humphreys have signed a statement re-
plying to President Jordan and Timothy
Hopkins, who recently announced their
conclusions that the death OF Mrs. Stan
ford was due TO natural causes.
They characterize the statement OF
these gentlemen as astonishing and re-
iterate their finding that stryChnine was
the cause Of death. They say that the
publication OF the Jordan Hopkins opin-
ion. makes 1t incumbent on them TO reply
and they give the following reasons why
the death must have resulted from
strychnine poisoning.
Mrs. Stanford died during a character
istic strychnine convulsion which was
seen by Drs. Humphreys and Murray.
"A post-mortem rigidity identical with
that peculiar TO cases OF that class OF
poisoning
The post-mortem revealed no other
cause OF death. from any affection of the
stomach or intestines they contained no
condition.
Tine post-mortem I'm every respect
gives the evidences of authenticated cases
OF strychnine poisoning, and these COM
bined with the fact that strychnine was
found In the bi-carbonate Of soda which
was used by the deceased, furnish n chain
OF evidence that will Withstand the
fiercest assaults"
