YOUTH in one of the western states has just

dime novels few weeks ago a mere boy in Iowa
was arrested for murder and he also attributed his
downfall to abnormal desire for yelow-b back

ines that it is all rea soon finds out by experience
that it is fiction and that he is upagainst it hard
Such reading poor stuff to place in the hands of
boy whose mind has not yet grasped the full signi6-
canoe of life.
Perhaps in the near future it viii be impossible
for boys to get hold of such stuff As it is now any
who has the price purchase all the dime
novels he wants few years ago we bought one of
these exciting periodicals, but was advised by the
newsdealer that i. was not ft to read We then
asked him why he kept them in stock if they were
unfit to read, and his answer was shrug of the
shoulders. The man who knows that dime novels
unfit to read but still keeps them for sale is al
most guilty the hair Drained youth who is led
astray by reading them.

Peculiar Eue. Glasses.

6CtU0OtU7
The police of Paris are now equipped with eye-
glasses which enables them to see behind them with
almost the same ease looking straight ahead.
The eyeglasses contain small mirrors fastened to
the outer rim, and as the officers walk along the
street they can see what is going on behind them.
Now if someone would invent pair OF glasses that
would enable them to tell the difference between a
clue and case of mistaken indemnity, there surely
would be cause for considerable rejoicing. Some
times it is fine thing to know what is going on be-
hind ones back, but progressive men are more con-
cerned with what is ahead. These glasses will be a
nine days fad and then discarded for they are use-
less as far as practical work is concerned.

Best Ship .Afont.

AMERICA now has the biggest and best battleship
ever constructed 1t is the Delaware and it exceeds
the many admirable features of the British Dread
naught class of battleship. This is the first of a
series of four monster big ships being built by the
United States government, and each of them will
contain every known modern appliance in naval con-
struction. It now remains to be seen whether or
not England France and Germany will outrival this
country in building big batteships-the gentle peace
persuaders of the world.

To License Drinkers.

To License Drinkers
A LAwMAKER in the state of Washington has
introduced measure which, if it becomes a law,
will compel all frequeDters of saloons to take out
license said licenses costing the purchasers five dol
lars. oubtedly this bill introduced as joke,
for if intended to lessen the sale of ntoxcants
it will not accomplish the desired object. Those
who afford to buy license will do so but those
who belong to the working class and cannot stop the
habit of drinking, will be made worse off than before.
This Glass; long there is liquor for sale will
get it at any price,
This bill is not a meritorious one from any
standpoint Instead of performing good service
to mankind it will still further add to the burdens
of poverty. Very likely this worthy gentleman
would like to the liquor traffic curtailed. His
measure will not do it. Ii it would be permissible
to tax persons who drink liquor, why it would not
be long before would suggest taxing persons
who drink tea, coffee, etc., or compel the users of
tobacco to take out license. Today all dogs are
licensed but no has recorded the fact that this
metal tag has changed the dogs appetite for chick
ems or Sheep To license men for drinking is simply
an evasion of the main issue.

Government Balloons.

CONGRESS has appropriated nearly a million
dollars for experimenting in balloons and arships,
thus acknowledging that aeronautics are likely to
play an important part the possible wars of the
future. Nearly all the European governments are
investing heavily in various kinds of airshps and it
is no more than proper that Uncle Sam should keep
abreast of modern conditions of warfare.
With airships and balloons engaged in actual
combat, war is going to prove fifty per cent more
destructive than in the past 1t will require
geous hearts to enlist to fight the battles of their
country but perhaps this very destructiveness will
cause war to become almost obsolete Let us hope

NOCTURNE.

The River of Dreams now sweetly flows
As calm and clear the sunlight glowss
But now its waters are heaving-dark
And trembling soul scarce dares embark
On the River of Dreams.
I loved and lost-was it better? Who knows?
My life tramps over the shattered rose,
And the strong coarse strife of the money mart
Has wrested the sweeter song from my heart.
All! River of dreams.
But when my time comes, and turn up my toes
And find out what every dead man knows,
I'd like to be tossed like cat in sack
OFF London Bridge, where the shadows are black
To the River of Thames.

REPRESENTATIVE j. j. DUNCAN of Lincoln
county has prepared bill providing for the establish
ment and maintenance of an iron steel bridge
plant at the Jefferson City, Mo-, penitentlary, to be
operated by the convicts which, he believes, will do
much toward counteracting the opposition to con-
vict labor competing against tradesmen in other
lines.
The measure calls for an appropriation of $780,
600 for the erection of the plant and $4,000 for its
equipment, and also provides that the output shall
be sold to the counties of the state at price suf
cient only to indemnify the state against loss in the
manufacture The warden of the prison is empow
ered under the act to fix the price of the bridges

The Opium Curse.

The Opium Curse.
In a recent number of Crit, published at Will
amsport, PENN, is an article describing the opium
traffic In this country 1t states that there al
least fifteen million persons in this country who are
habitual slaves to the drug, and that some of the
'joints'' in which the dope is procured contain all
the conveniences of wel-appointed palace, cater
ing solely to men and women of high society. This
article also states that most of the CIGARS cigarettes
and smoking tobacco is highly diluted with the drug
especially cigarettes.
Considering the widespread influence of this
perncious drug it would seem that it time to re-
strict it's sale. It is said that the revenue derived
from it's sale amounts to million dollars annually
but this sum is hardly sufficient recompense for the
thousands of wrecks it has caused in manhood and
womanhood all over the country. The practice OF
doping all kinds of smoking tobacco WILL in another
decade two, this country to become SO firm
y in the grasp of the opium that it will be al
most impossible to stamp it out.
The opium habit is great deal worse than the
liquor traffic. AS yet concentrated movement
has been made toward checking it, but as soon as it
becomes known that it is laying the country pros
trate the people will insist having it's sale checked

st. Louis Republic: The tumult and
the shouting dies; the captains and
the kings depart. As their navy
melts away it is a good time to take
a bird's-eye view OF the situation as
regards river development.
st. Louis wants a deep channel
from the lakes to the gulf. It is the
consensus OF opinion among trans
portation experts, In view of the sit
uation In the United States and the
history of the development of rail
and river routes abroad, that the time
has come for action. The traffic IS
here to be moved; the rivers are here
to move it. There are three factors
to be supplied: Boats, terminals ana
an improved channel. The task i'm
posed by the need of the latter IS too
great for any power but that of the
federal government: it is this that IS
In the foreground now.
The technical problems are com.
pick, but the main outline is simple.
A fourteen-foot channel at low water
means a 20-foot channel during the
period OF high water. averaging IN
days each year. This means access
to st. Louis for the coastwise fleet OF
America during the time when grain
is to be moved and traffic in many
heavy commodities is at Its height.
We know what it will cost. The
most competent body of river engi-
neers in the world has examined the
subject exhaustively. The total is
sl57 900. 900. OF this sa1.o0,00o Is
simply to complete the project al
ready adopted for the Improvement
OF the difficult ST. Louis-Cairo reach.
Upward of sso,00o.uoo more goes for
the protection of the banks OF the
