Various conditions complained Of in
tits city exist not because of any lack
of laws to remedy them, but because
of the non enforcement of laws already
on the statute books. The demand
should not be for any new laws, but
only, for the better enforcement Of ex-
istlng laws. There is not single evil
that sany one can name but what cam
be adequately dealt with by recourse
to the laws now supposed to be in full
force in this city and state assisted by
theapubhcity that would inevitably fol-
low any attempt at enforcement. Other
cities have been able to grapple
successfully with much worse Z con-
ditions than are present in this
cityd by means of these same laws
and5cthere is no reason why these
laws should fail when they are proper
ly applied and backed up by public SEN
timent. The law abiding people of any
community are not powerless to obtain
public decency. As a general rule they
are only too lazy. Il

surrounded by Berlin. the imperial city
Of the German empire. He showed the
daily life of Berlin, its impressive state
ceremonies, its past, present and future,
Its superb military spectacles. with a mas
sive architectural background and also
on the green sward. Slight glimpses Of the
port of Hamburg were given, as well as
pictures taken in the German ocean, with
that stretch Of water at calm and also
when It was tempestuous. One Of the most
interesting set of pictures was that OF q little
paradise called spreewald. a farming sec

Sunday the merrymakers from the city
flock to enjoy an outing on the quaint
canals with which the place is studded in

HITCHCOCK TALKS WITH TAFT
Chairman Explains Detail Regard
ing Collection of Republican
Funds.

HOT SPRINGS, Va, Nov. B.-Details
OF how the republican campaign fund
was collected and used formed an interest
ing part of the conference between Presi-
dent-elect Taft and National Chairman
Hitchcock here today. Mr.. Hitchcock OK
planned that while the total sum right
fully credited to the national committee
was about 81. 500, 600. as a matter Of fact
the committee fund was but 81. 600, 900.
The excess over this amount was col
lected by state organizations and turned
back to them by the national committee
for their own use. While the fact APP
pears in the official publication under
the law, Mr.. TAFT was told that its sig
nificance did not appear in the published
statement.
Five separate contributions were made
by C. 2. Taft, which made him the larg-
est single contributor. All OF these Mr..
Hitchcock explained were made al times
when the campaign committee was with
out funds and when the demand for them
was greatest.
Mr.. Hitchcock arrived this morning. ac-
cOmpanied by Charles II. Boynton OF
New York. both OF whom will remain here
until Friday.
The national chairman dined with Mr..
Taft tonight. He said his time recently
had been taken up arranging the pre-

Black HiIIs Hunter Finds the
Pair TO BE Easy
Prey.

RAPID CITY, s. D., Nov. 26.-(Special)-
While hunting in the western part of this
county last week. Jess Burner of Hermosa
heard a peculiar noise which he found on
investigation to be a large buck paving
the earth. A well directed shot brought
down the animal but on approaching closer
to the game he found that its horns were
securely intcrlocked with those of another
buck. The second buck was promptly dis
patched and the heads of both, fast to-
gether. are now on display in Tom Dowd's
place OF business on Main street. SO firmly
are the horns interlocked that It is impos-
sible to separate them without breaking
off several prongs. Deer hunters have met
with fair success in the Hills this season,
but the absence of snow has made 1t diff
ficult to~trail the game and consequently
has considerably lessened the number

tFRoM NEW YORK WORLD. MAY s. Ol
AMERICANS LACK COMMON
SENSE, SAYS WESTENER
Told Well Known New Yorker He Was Living Like a Fool
So Far As His Stomach Was Concerned.

L. r. Cooper, who is at present ex-
planning his medicines to the public of
this city and attracting a great deal OF
attention, thinks that Americans are
lacking In common sense. Cooper claims
that most ill-health Is due to stomach
disorders caused by improper living.
When interviewed Thursday. he said:
while modern conditions are largely
responsible for many half-sick, rundown
people in America today. lack of com
mon sense can also be blamed.
at is. impossible to lead the active
outdoor life that nature demands. 1t is
impossible for many to exercise the body
sufficiently to make the gastric juices
wholly active and virile. 1t is impossible
to spend ais much time as we should In
the fresh air and sunshine, But Il is pos
sible to treat a stomach already weak
ened by these facts with a little consid-
Grafton.
"If the American people would think
half as much of their stomaohs as they do
of their pocketbooks. there wouldn't be so
much OF this tired-aIl-the-time feeling.
IF we would sit down quietly to a
plain, common sense meal, eat slowly,
chew every meuthful thoroughly, and
tn en- give It time to digest, there wouldn't
be so many droopy, ~listless, sallow-faced
men and women. But we don't; we are
a nation of boilers. We bolt our food
and expect our stomach to do the work
our teeth were intended for. We rush
through our meals as though to catch a
train. Time is money. In consequence
we are the richest nation on the face of
the globe, but we are slowly becoming a
lot of chronic dyspeptics.
"Our forfathers gave us two things
First, a glorious land with unlimited re-
sources and opportunities. Second, sound
