before the Senate, has an importance
not limited by its own scope. 1t en-
bodies a principle fraught with posi-
BILE far-reaching results. That prln-
pie concerns the future attitude OF
this government toward all similar
cases that may arise.
Santo Domingo is only one OF many
Independent sovereignties of Latli =
America that are heavily indebted to
Europeans. Their claims are being
pressed for settlement. The presi-
dent holds that in fulfilment OF the
Monroe doctrine the United States
should proceed to take charge of the
customs OF these countries and satisfy
these claims rather than await action
by the European powers representing
the creditors. He maintains that in
promulgating the doctrine that we will
not allow Old World governments to
add to their territory on this hemis-
phere we likewise assume an obliga-
ton to use our authority in such a way
that there will be no occasion for that
step on their part.
The small. weak and impeeunious
countries in Central and South Amer
lea must be made 10 see that they are
not to hide behind Uncle Sam and
thumb their nose to their creditors
across the ocean. The Monroe doc
trine is not designed to protect them
in their bankruptcy, but to serve its
direct purpose OF keeping the hands Of
European powers OFF the western con-
tinents. In justice to the latter, mas
much as we frown upon their taking
steps to collect their debts, the admin
istration holds that it is our duty 10
act as collector for them.
Only few years ago, Germany and
Great Britain joined in a forcible naval

that would directly violate
The Monroe doctrine.
A similar situation may arise at any
line. The Monroe doctrine has a
very wide application. II we are to

The new law depriving delinquent
taxpayers OF the right to vote in town
meeting has had the effect OF reducing
the voting lists very materially in
many cities and towns. Doubtless
quite a proportion of these names will
be restored before election day, which
can be done in case the delinquent
taxes are paid before that time. II il
a very convenient arrangement for
the careless taxpayer who doesn't
esteem the right of voting very highly.
He simply waits until some candidate,
anxious for his vote, ponies up for
him and settles the tax. A nice little
encouragement for vote-buying, this
is. in a state so careful Of its elections
that it maintains the costly and elabo-
rate Australian ballot system to pre-
serve their purity. We won't pre-
Judge this law, but we shall be very
much surprised if it achieves anything
more than the most dubious kind Of
results

An exchange remarks that Repre-

gentleman from Peru, who has sup
plemented his legislative career by a
series of letters 10 the press critically
reviewing the work OF the session and
also introducing a plea for Mary Rog-
ers, has himself become an issue.

as a model, while others are pounding
him. Neither class quite understands

4 petition is being circulated, and
is literally signed in Hardwick, ask
ing Governor Bell to conditionally
pardon G.. Constantine, now serving
sentence at Rutland for illegal liquor
selling. The main reason given Is
that his family will cost the town
about s75 a month while he is in the
work house - News item.
Justice is often retarded by this
same plea. Many a poor, shiftless
good-for-nothing escapes the penalty
for his misdeeds because, if it is melted
out, those dependent on him will
become a burden to the community.
We have known cases where it seemed
as If the offender, conscious of his
immunity, took full advantage OF it.
As rule it is better to let the law
act than to encourage this kind OF
anarchy even if it does cost the town
something.

ADULTERATIoNs IN GERMAN
Even Fruits Are Contaminated and
Acids Abound in Many AR
ticles of Diet.

According to a report made to the
state department, DR.. H. Matthes, di-
rector of the bureau office for examin-
ing foods of the University of Jena,
has published a statement relating to
the articles most frequently adulter-
ated. According to this statement.
$40 samples were examined in 1908
and 1869 in 1904 This number did
not include 116 samples of milk, which
were found to contain very high per-
centage of dirt.
1t was found that apricots contained
sulphurous acid; effervescent lemon
AIDES did not contain a trace of pure
fruit juices; butter contained too little
fat and too much water; so-called bak-
ing powder consisted of oleomargar-
inc; egg noodles contained no yolk of
eggs, or at least very small quantities;
huclleberry Juice was spoiled COM
pletely; raspberry juice was greatly
diluted, and some samples contained
glucose and coal-tar dyestuffs; mince-
meat contained sulphurous acid;
ground mace contained flour, ground
toasted bread, Bombay mace and nut
meg; marmalades were mixed glu-
cose and colored with coal-tar dyes;
milk was watered, skinned and often
very dirty; pepper contained lime,
sand and good deal of the shell;
sausages contained flour, boracic acid
and coloring matter; preserving salts
contained sulphurous, boracic, louric
and benzoic acids, etc.
The report complains of the indif-
ference shown by the masses regard
ing purity and reliability of articles
of food, and the custom which prevails
in large cities Of having the examina-
tions Of such articles made by persons
not experts.

Just as the boomer han SAID; there was
the country stretching round about.
The air was light and healthful, and
the map which the promoter spread
out before them showed the location
OF the post Office, the courthouse and
federal building. Besides, there was
the brass band and the railroad, and
the kegs in the baggage car, which had
been brought along as Lanowack
lacked a well at the time and the wa
terworks had not yet been installed.
The lots were put up at auction and
went like hot cakes at prices ranging
from SIS to s100. according to their
proximity to the courthouse or fed
eral building or some other impor-
tant municipal edif1ce calculated to at
tract traffic. Business was good. The
promoter was sorry he had not bought
two quarter sections, as then Lano-
wack would have been twice as large
--on the map After everything had
been sold the train pulled back into
Oklahoma City, where there were
more drinks, and everybody went to
bed richer by far than when hey first
arrived in town.
THE promoter cleaned up something
like $4,000 out of the deal, after pay
ing for his train, band beer and other
expenses. About a year afterward
met one of the Germans and rather
sympathized with him for the way he
had been taken in, but it was pity
wasted.
