JOHN NORTON MAKES
; GOOD PATRIOTIC TALK
Is Speaker Of the Day at Eveleth
Four of July Cele-
:: bratiOn.
Discusses Eloquently Political and
Industrial Problems of
:, Nation.

Eveleth, July 12.-Independence Day
was observed here In old time fashion.
A picnic was held and the speech OF
the day was delivered by Hon. John
Norton Of Duluth. He spoke as follows:
1.-THE fringe Of civilization stretched
along the Atlantic coast consisting Of
the colonies out Of which the 13 orig
inal states were created were composed
Of the best blood drawn from the Diff
ferent Nations Of the old world. They
had come to the land discovered by
Columbus to escape the tyranny and
force Of despotic rulers and by educa-
zion, association and environment had
come to realize new and ever widen
ing political philosophy. They saw
with clear and comprehen sive vision
that the doctrine of the divine right
of kings to make laws and rule with
despotic power over the people was
founded in the essence Of sel1shness
and error and had no logical or legal
force in the economy of government.
They met in the open air, in town halls
and in the assembly and other places
and wrought out new political maxim
which was to govern their action and
in the end to compass the whole round
Of civilization. 1t was this, that all
governments derive their just powers
from the consent of the governed It
was not to be expected that the estab-
lished powers would accept the new
faith without a struggle. George the
III was a sullen and a simple monarch.
Like Nebuchadnezzar he saw the hand
writing on the wall. but he was not
wise enough to interpret it's meaning.
He thought he could enforce his royal
edicts in the colonies the same as he
could in his insular possessions and
eight long and bloody years he poured

The Virginia the United States People Sell Votes Hog CombTbe Hog Combine Sends Scott and Es the Senate And Eins the Chairman of the Committee Which Bill
 By

-Elkins and scott---but MT. Dawson can't expect help from them. He writes to the senator from South Carolina Hon. Benjamin R. Tillman. He hardly knows him, T do not know that you remember me-" he says. T met you al a dinner given by Senator Scott two years ago." So he knows Scott well the State leaders of his party, yet he | writes to a Democrat from South Car olina? Why?
 Because the corrupted government and the corrupting businesses of West Virginia are. organized into what is called a Hog Combine,'' and the Sen ators from West Virginia boss and they represent this Hog Combine" oi alien corporations and coal land graft CTS.
 That's why Governor Dawson oi West Virginia puts, up his prayer to Senator Tillmaan, Of South Carolina And that's why he deserves no help | neither he nor his helpless people. For the rest of us. have to pray for relief | from the same conditions to the Sena- | tor from West Virginia. 4
 'Is our Government, ours?" That is our question. Last week we saw how | our President had to Jam certain bills | of ours through ''our" unwilling House of Representatives, The only bill which that body passed without bucking was the Hepburn rate regula- tion bill. and we saw that the Hon. Pete" Hepburn. the godfather of the bill, and the chairman of the House committee which drew 1t, had been but recently converted from his railroad sympathies byfa bonfire out in his State. And we found reason to believe that Representative Hepburn was a type of 'our' representatives who are not ours at all; having to go to us for re-election next fall all bat seven of them passed the rate bill up to the Senate--to5 be fixed"
 Well, the rate bill was referred in the Senate to the Interstate Commerce Committee, and now 1t appears that the chairman of the committee is none other than the Hon. stephen B. Elkins the boss or political agent of the Hog Combine whom our fellow citizens fin West Virginia send here to Washington to represent all of us in the. United States Senate. Is 1t any wonder that he fixed our bill?s sf.sis
 West Virginia is in dire trouble, but we owe her no sympathy. She gave us our Senator EIkins. But, then. on the other hand. what.can the rest of us say? Whom doswe send to the Senate to represent all of us and West Vir- ginia? My" Senators from my" State are Platt and Depew Who are your Senators from your" Stafe?, You see we .reaelly don't deserve rate reguIa- ton. It Is. an abuse of the power of public opinion to, compel a Represent ative like Hepburn and Senator like Elkins to relieve us from the condition that prevails In West Virginia and In the United States. Why, I understand that it can be shown that MT. Eikins, as a railroad man. has been guilty of the very discrfminatiohs which we ex- pect him to forbid
 It's our Government, not the rail- roads. that we want to control; repre- sentative goverhment, not rate regula- tion, is what we--lack.

Some used it hyperdermically, making solution with water Physicians have been hab- itues of the drug to a larger extent than the members of any other profes- sion, both because they have been tempted by curiosity, and because they alone have been able always to get 1t without difficulty, Physicians wives too are noticeably indulgent, and, un- accountably, shopgirls and clerks. As rule cocaine eaters are persons of an intellectual bent, attracted in the be- ginning by reports of the brain-stimu- lating qualities of the poison. Melan- choly people are lured into the vice by the optimism 1t produces, only to incur the deep melancholic reaction which in turn drives them into renewal of the dose. Presently the habit is fixed. and acute cocaine poisoning sets in with its bodily deterioration and it's peculiar in- sanity. not unlike the delirium tremens of drunkenness.
 Legislation put something of a quiet us on promiscuous abuse of the "hane of the South American swamps" when last spring the sale of cocaine otherwise than on a doctors prescription, good for once only. was prohibited. Nor phine and opium may be procured still by subtle ways in toothache or ear ache drops, and it Is likely that the dis appointed cocaine lover consoles him self with one or the other.
 Another reason alleged for the mo- ticeable falling off in the ranks of the cocaine habitue Is that many people have come to understand the dreaded action that follows it's use.
 Whatever the causes 1t is a fact that q certain falling off in the number of cases of cocaine poisoning has been noted by the specialists and physician students of the Post-Graduate Medical School. And they aresapt to know. for it is the opportunity to come into con tact with unguessed modifications of disease that draws numbers of prac ticing physicians from various parts of this and other countries.

Yet for the purpose of making a com parative study of such maladIes the physician goes to New York. He notes at the hospital generally. effective treatment that has been adopted. Be- fore the use of cocaine has proceeded too far 1t may be overcome by an ef- fort of the will seconded by removal to new environment. and. if possible, by q new and expressing occupation that will give no time for the return user who wishes to reform must place himself, too, at the mercy of his friends, seek their society and shun his own, and encounter all possible pleas ant distractions. A cardinal rule for overcoming the habit before 1t has reached the hopeless stage Is to eat a meal whenever the craving is felt to be coming on. Such a rule may upset the conventional regulations for meal times, yet 1t is claimed in some instances to have saved the day. For the cocaino- maniac proper there Is little hope un- less he seek medical aid and undergo definite scientific treatment.

It's easy enough to choose wife so far as the present is con cerned, but if you want to know some thing of your wife for the future you should take her mother into account.

It Is singular that men with guns want to destroy the very last survivor of a disappear ing species of bird or animal One would think that the rarer a bird or beast became the greater care thero would be to protect it.

Although the utensils are made of pliable paper they hold water readily. By pouring water over them they can be hung over the fire without, burning for length of time sufficient to boil the water, One kettle can. be used about eight times, and the cost Is only cents. One ad- vantage of these unique receptacles is that they are much lighter to carry than anything else yet devised.
