WE HAVE a DRUG PROBLEM or
OUR OWN

Referring TO the efforts which are
bcing made 10 eradicate the opium
traffic in China. President Taft In MS
m, ssare IN Congress pertinently sug-
gested that traffic in OPIUM and It's
products be kept under rigorous con
trcl In this country. In the interest
OF humanity, perhaps il Is proper II"
,he United States anu other nations
TO interfere jud!ciously in China's DC
nestle affairs to the extent OF doing
what they can TO curb the spread OF
the opium habit. but home missions
should come ahead of foreign MISSIONS
every time. and as lcng as the United
States has something efs g drug PROB
lem Of It's own the federal government
cannot AFFORD TO lose to much time
worrying about the troubles OF an
other naticn.
Possibly the traffic in opium rs I'M
der such control throughout the Unit
ed States that It presents no very
troublesome problem. There Is an
other drug, however, of which the
same cannot be said. In the Soutn'
NJ least, cocaine probably gives the
police authorities more trouble tnan
any ether one thing, and rs long as
dealers IN this drug are able to keep
ignorant and vicious whites and
negroes supplied in spite Of the law
the Southern people viii net be likely
10 enthuse over movements looking
toward the eradication OF the opium
traff;c in China.
Where the cocaine Genes from Is a
question that puzzles the local and
state authorities. Every row and
,hen q worthless negro is naobed
with email quantity OF the arog
about BIS person. and on one or Two
occasicrs tho Norfolk police have
caught white salesman with a con-
siderable amount But no one seems
10 know where the staff conits from.
Certainly il comes from out Of the
state. therefore the federal govern
ment could deal with the problem I'M
der the interstate commerce Law. The
large drug manufacturing concerns
claim that tie cocaine SUPPLY fer IL
llcit purposes does not come from
thsm; that is is an adultsrateo
product put cut particularly for sale
among the habi.ual users, a large
majority Of whom are ignorant neg
roes or whites equally IS ignorant

In dealing With the local situation
she police OF this city have befi
handicapped because the members Q

have allowed persons convicted Q

Guthrie. Okla, Mar. 6.-Following
the exciting events OF Thursday the
house session was somewhat llstless
and practically featureless.
The Anthony bill amending the
gross revenue tax on coal gas oil
and other minerals, came back from
the senate so amended as to reduce
the present tax on coal from two per
cent, TO one-half Of one per cent. Tn.
der the senate amendments the tax
es now due under this law are to be
remitted
Anthony thought that justice and
good business sense demanded the
acceptance of the amendments
McCalla again opposed the proposi.
ton. stating that the taxes had nev-
er been paid and that he was against
the remission Of any taxes to any
body.
