himself entirely to the sentimental
phase of his theme? He paints
lurid pictures of things as they are
alleged to be and things as he
would have them. In other words,
he is an idealist-a dreamer who
brushes aside the practical phases
of his subject with utter uncon-
cern-and that is why State wide
Prohibition in theory and practice
are two entirely different things,
as such States as Maine, Oklaho-
ma, Tennessee, Kansas, Iowa,
Georgia, Alabama aud Mississippi
have found out to their sorrow. In
the present campaign in Missouri
the Prohibition speakers are silent
on these -things. They do not re-
fer to the fact that State wide
Prohibition violates the sacred
principle of local self government.
They say nothing about the prop
osition that if it is fair for the dry
counties to vote the whole State
dry it is equally fair for the big
cities and the wet counties to vote
the whole State wet. They don't
dwell on the fact that while State.
wide Prohibition would wipe out
S140, 100000 worth of brewery
property in Missouri, liquor would
still be shipped in by the train
load from other states. They are
silent on the fact as old as the hills
that you cacnot enforce a law
which is not backed by local
sentiment-apd lastly, they for
get to say word to the effect that
the enactment of this measure
would mean an insrease in the
State tax of 45 cents on the S100
valuation. Yet all of these things
constitute the milk in the cocoa
nut and every thoughtful, level
headed citizen will take them into
consideration when he goes to the
polls to vote on November 9Th.

trouble that the man has relieved sew

A recent article in the New Orleans
Item gives an account of the effect
upon the medical profession of that city
with regard to l. T. Cooper's theory
that the human stomach is responsible
for most i'll health The article is as
follows:
The astonishing sale of Cooper's
preparation in this city has now
reached such immense figures that the
medical fraternity has been forced into
open discussion of the mans theories
and medicines.
The physicians seem to be divided
with regard to the young mans sue

accomplished, while others assert that
the interest he has aroused is but a
passing fad that will die out as quickly
as il has sprung UP.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Iuquiry
into the high cost of living was re-

market. He said that the biggest
jump in meat prices he had ever known
was in the last two years.
Hall said that he figured on a gross
profit of Is per cent. but was salts
fed with a net profit of per cent.
This caused Senator Smoot to inquire:
Then how-is it you have accumu-
lated $4,000 in Is years?"
Hall said. that Elgin creamery but
ter was standard, and that the butter
price was fixed at Elgin. He stated
that it was a trade supposition that a
number of manufacturers IN Elgin got
together and fixed the price of Elgin
butter.

KIDNAPPED IN AUTO
Oakland Girl Returns Home With
Strange Tale of Drugs and
Unknown Men

OAKLAND March o. Telling a
strange tale of having been drugged
and abducted in an automobile by two
men whom she had never seen before,
Fannie SchoenfeId, an IS year old girl,
staggered into her home in the st.
Nicolai apartments shortly before 6
o'clock this evening hysterical with
weeping and on the verge of a nervous
breakdown
Two days ago-Monday evening-she
walked out of the store of William
Schoenfeld, 80 San Pablo avenue, os-
tensibly to go to her home. She was
bareheaded and in high spirits, having
just made arrangements to go to a
theater with her mother in the even
ing. Her father saw her turn out of
San Pablo avenue into Eighteenth
street, and from that moment until to-
night she has been missing. For 48
hours her frantic relatives, with the
securing the city for some trace of her.
When the girl, in a sort Of stupor
from the effect of liquor or drugs, stag
gered into her mothers apartments
this afternoon she was able only to
murmur incoherently that she had been
seized and thrown into an automobile
by two strange men, who stopped her
as she was walking up Eighteenth
street Where they took her or what
she had been doing in the interim she
was unable to remember. but she re-
peatedly declared that she had been
walking all day today on her way
home.
The girls story of having been in
the company of two men was in a way
subStantiated by the testimony of Adna
Cretser, a poolroom employe, and Frank
Smith bar tender. who said that they
had seen her with two men at the
corner of San Pablo avenue and For
tieth street at 1890 o'clock Monday
night The men were supporting the
girl against fence and she appeared
to be Ill. After she had been attacked
by severe vomiting spell one of her
companions, who is described as tall,
smooth shaven man with dark fea-
lures, went to a saloon on the opposite
side of the street and asked for some
restorative A moment later he
changed his mind and called for an
automobile. The machine was called
and the three drove away. The police
are investigating the case.

good system that we will not be
ashamed Of"
j. J. Pratt of the Central Richmond
Improvement club read a petition
signed by 500 persons of the Richmond
district containing the following:
we believe that the city's oper-
alton of the Geary street road is
the only solution OF the good serV-
ice problem and we would rather
suffer the inconvenience of trans
ferring at Market and Sansome
streets than to take the least
chance Of losing any of the citys
rights on Market street. Investi-
cation viii prove to you that it is
not the people that are demanding
better service in Market and Sutter
streets. The people are patient
when their rights are being pre-
served. We view with distrust any
recognition of the Sutter street
railway company whatsoever and
pray that you do not grant any
permit TO ii or the United rail-
roads unless the rights of the city
TO operate its own cars on the outer
tracks is expressly agreed to by
these companies"

Delay Is Suggested

At this point Supervisor Bancroft
suggested that the matter go over for
a week and asked that his resolution
TO compel the company to go down the
inner Market street tracks be called up.
Supervisors Pugh, Herget and Lough-
cry declared that the Bancroft resolu-
tfon was not on the calendar The
clerk found, however. that it had been
made part of the days business.
L have nothing against the United
railroads." said Bancroft. only last
Monday / voted for the Cough street
franchise. But ] doubt if l would vote
to give them another in view of their
attitude toward the people.
THE public is anxious to have this
thing decided, said Pugh- They want
to get the horse cars off Market street.
We can vote on this permit now and
then take up the Bancroft resolution
later. The two matters are not re-
lated.
They certainly are related" replied
Bancroft.
Hooks moved to put the permit over
one week and to take up the Bancroft
resolution. There was no second.
NO" said Herget, let us settle it
right here"
Il move that the permit be denied,
came back Hooks. Again there was no
second.
Supervisor Walsh asked President
Boeckman of the Sutter street company
if he were willing TO recognize the
right of the Geary road to go to the
ferry.
Certainly not" was the reply.
The same question was put to Null
Ially.
.sThere is no use taking up time with
that" he answered. I'VE have stated
before that we have grants that we
can't give up. AS a matter of fact
he continued, IF you are jockeying for
position in court, my advice to you is
to grant this permit and let the United
Railroads have it. If you grant this
permit the city viii be in better posi-
ton than it is today. The permit will
never be used against the city. If the
United Railroads had not honor enough
for that it would be unworthy to re-
ceive the permit. l believe it right and
proper for you to grant these privileges
for these citizens.
Hooks then explained that the permit
given by the old board was temporary
in character and intended to allow the
company to repair its main tracks.
