wild plants, insects and grubs with
an occasional wild pig as a delicacy.
In the distance they sighted the stand
ing problem Of New Guinea-the
Snowy Mountains. Certain scientists
have scoffed at the title, maintaining
that in that latitude there are no
snow mountains, and what has been
seen is the reflection of light from the
white rocks on the mountain tops. Mr..
Pratt is convinced, however, that they
are veritable snowcaps.

THE ROYAL PURPLE DAHLlA.
Boston Man Produces Exquisite Flow

Mrs. Taft.
Boston POST

Boston POST
1t cost Albert E. Johnson, a Bay
State business man, ten years of con
slant devotion to produce new dab
lie, royal purple in color, and of such
exquisite shape as to be hailed by
floriculturists as the queen of the
dahlias.
The only reward he seeks is to be
permitted to name the new flower af.
ter Mrs. Taft. and he now anxiously
awaits the reply from the summer
White House, where he sent several
of the best specimens by special mes
senger
Raising dahlias is Johnson's hobby.
A grocer by occupation, he is a
florist by choice, and within the past
fifteen years he has succeeded in pro-
ducing various new specimens of his
royal purple dahlia.
In the rear Of Johnson's house, at
A Smell street, Brockton, there are
1900 dahlias in full bloom. No other
flowers are to be found in his garden,
but the dozens of colors found among
these give the impression of a bloom
ing rainbow, and the garden is the OBJ.

Johnson is a bachelor. He lives
alone, and his flowers, declare his
neighbors, are to him as if they were
his children.
"Pople don't appreciate as a gener-
al rule the beauty of the dahlia," he
says" but to me there is no more
beautiful flower in existence.
II have worked for fifteen years to
bring forth the royal purple flower,
and to me it is so exquisite in color
ing and so perfect in form that it
fully deserves to bear the name of
the first lady in the land

"The royal purple dahlia is worthy
of bearing the name of the presidents

worthy of christening the new dahlia
with his or her name.
u certainly am somewhat impatient
by awaiting Mrs. Taft's reply, but
should she refuse the dahlia will bear
no other name but that of the royal

Other South Mississippi Paper
TIME FOR CONGRESS TO ACT.

The states, cities and counties of
the south, in the exercise of their
rights of self-government, have sought
In a stringent way to regulate or in a
positive way to prohibit traffic OF
liquor This method of dealing with
great problem has aroused in the
liquor trade resentment and organ
lied antagonism. Harper's Weekly
seeks thus to describe this condition
of action by the people and resist
ance by the special interests:
ION the main line of the Souh-
ern railroad from Washington to New
Orleans there is not a town or city
~ which a man can buy a glass Of
beer legitimater, But If the train tar
ries for half an hour almost anywhere
he can refresh himself again before
reaching his destination. From his
seat in the Pullman car he can see
hundreds of trucks at every station
filled with kegs, cases, demijohns and
Jugs, for the shipment of liquor into
the desert is the big industry today.
The same traveller, if his name is
John Smith, can find a package of any
size. in almost any express office.
AS most of it is shipped c. o. D., he
can pay, sign and take it. The con-
ditions are far from ideal, but the
saloon has been voted out by the peo-
pie or the Legislature without regard
to consequences. Meanwhile there
is the usual amount of drinking on
the part of those who can afford it.,
and who know how. Seeing the op-
portunity which could be offered,
brewers began to work day and night
to supply the demand for near-beer,
which is supposed to contain less
than 2 per cent of alcohol. But in
the near-beer saloon, almost without
exception, the real article is sold.
Practically every dealer has United
States license, and most of them will
mix drink of whiskey or serve it
straight"
Certainly here is a picture, If true,
that carries with it many lessons. It
Is picture of lawlessness. 1t de-
scribes. a condition of affairs where
Illegal traffic being profitable is sys-
tematically organized; traffic based
upon conspiracy between lawless
men outside of the state and lawless
men within the state. 1t is the viola
tion Of local regulations through in
terstate commerce, traffic that can
be eradicted only when congress de-
termines to act.
Here is an appeal therefore, to the
friends of home rule, of self-govern--
ment, Of states rights, to bring to
bear their influence upon congress to
force from congress legislation that
VIII protect the states in the exercise
0f their primary rights.
