HELP ASKED.

The annual report of the State SAM
tarium shows il is so crowded with the
insane that they ask the State to pro-
vide elsewhere for the semi-idiotic and
epiIeptic, especially as they need diff
ferent kind of treatment. Only so of
probably 1000 of the idiotic and about
300 of the epileptic are there.
The State ought to provide for these
helpless detectives, because by proper
supervision of trained workers and
physicians many can be restored to
comparative usefulness, the lives of
others can be made happy and partially
useful, poor parents can be relieved of
an awful burden, the unfortunates can
avoid mistreatment and the awful feel
ing that they are burden and disgrace
to their families.
The State owes it to her future pros
perity to prevent these detectives from
bringing defective children into world
to become paupers or possibly crimi-
nails. The girls are easily taken advan-
tage of, and almost invariably have
very large families of detectives.
Those interested in these should
write their legislators the facts in their
possessions, so they can act with due

ALONG CONDUIT ROAD
STATES ATTORNEYS CRUSADE
AGAINST vIoLAToRs OF LAW.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ROCKVILLE Nd, July 13.-State's At
torney Robert b. Peter has begun his cru
SADIE against violators of the law along the
Conduit road. The appropriation of Sloo
recently made by the county commissioners
to aid him In the work has been placed IN
his hands. and is being used for the pur-
pose for which 1t was intended. Mr. Peter
has not made known his plans. but he is
beyond doubt very much in earnest. He
says the law must be observed along the
Conduit just as strictly as In any other
section OF the county, and declares 1t to be
his intention to bring about such a condi-
ton of AFFAIRS If II is within his power to
do so.
Just now Mr. Peter is combining his at
tention to three or four places. II is mat
ter of common knowledge that several
years ago the local option and other laws
were openly violated along this thorough
fare from one end to the other. 1t is al
legged that these laws are still being vio-
lated at few places, and the public is very
much interested In Mr. Peters effort TO
close these down.
one resort in particular is said to be
giving the states attorney the most con-
Germ. and he has expressed himself as In
tending to make special effort against it.
When asked why the establishment re-
ferred to should be attacked so vigorously
when. 1t Is declared there are so many
other places in the county where the law Is
being violated Mr. Peter said:
Because this resort is responsible for
more violations of law than any other
place in the county. Owing to large sums
OF money made there by violating the law a
large part OF the community is being cor
rupted For years ii has been known that
persons were carried on the pay rolls there
simply TO placate the employees or some
of their friends
The ramifcations of this system OF
protection have, at times, assumed such
proportions that IL has been almost impos-
slpie TO prosecute successfully the vioators
of the law at this resort Stop the viola
ton of the law at the principal one and &c
Will be but a short time before it is stopped
az the other resorts"
