VIVA. makes people smuggle is a
question that has been asked many
times in the past and has been an
swered in various ways. The case is
perfectly clear with those who snug
gle fer business purposes-they need
the money, and evading custom du-
ties and then underselling competitors
is one way of getting it. But how
about the society people who snug
gle? They surely do not need the
money, and they do not smuggle in
the goods for the purpose Of selling
them. The amounts saved on the cost
of gowns and silks and furs and other
articles of personal adornment cannot
be the inducement that makes persons
of great wealth run the risk of heavy
fines and Imprisonment in federal
penitentiaries.
The psychologists have recently
taken hand in the matter of explain
ing smuggling Prominent among
them is Professor Hugo Munsterberg
of Harvard, the eminent German
American, who states his belief that
the reason people smuggle is because
they do not personify the government
to themselves-that is, they do not re-
gard Uncle Sam as a man whom they
defraud when they evade the lawfully
imposed custom duties. But that ex-
PLANTATION is rejected, or, at any rate
is not accepted, by the majority of in
vestigators of this interesting subject
These latter bullying brows assert that
the temptation to smuggle is an alta
vistic reversion to the delight in run
ming risks, in facing danger for its
own sake-in other words, the SNUG
glers delight in matching their wits
with those of the custom official. 1t
is the same spirit that makes a child
desire to see how close it can put its
finger to d candle fame without be-
ing burned.
But one would think that the widely
published accounts OF smugglers who
have had their fingers burned would
serve as a deterrent to others. 1t does
not seem to do so. The game goes
merrily on at all our ports of entry,
especially at New York. by far the
greatest of them all. But Collector
Loeb has determined to put stop to
it there. He may do SO partly. but it
is safe to say that there viii be snug
glers as long as human nature remains
what it is today.

lected. one Of the most successful OF
recent agricultural trains was the
poultry special" run by the New York
Central in cooperation with the ag-

mind the fact that in England recently
a similar poultry special run by one

An idea Of the variety Of work un-

There is something supremely tragic
about the doffing OF the silken robe by
Mr.. Moody. 1t is as though the gaunt
hand of disease had reached out to
pluck him from his place OF honor
when the years seemed to open to him

though one Of the youngest members
of the house at the time having serv-
ed only two terms, he was prominently
named as possible successor of
Speaker David B. Henderson. Moody
became secretary of the navy by ap-
pointment Of his intimate friend, Presi-
dent Roosevelt, before Mr.. Henderson
retired, but he is reported to have
said that he would not have accepted
the cabinet portfolio If he had known
that Mr.. Henderson was about TO re-
tire as he preferred the place of which.
Speaker Reed said there was only one
superior and no equal The course of
events, however, took Moody into the
navy department, where he made a
record for efficiency. His predecessor
was John D. Long, who conducted the
affairs Of the department during the
Spanish-American war. Then the at
torney generalship became vacant
through the election of Secretary
Knox to the senate, and Moody be-
came the governments legal adviser.
That was in 1908. Two years later the
retirement of Justice Brown left va

and Moody realized the ambition OF
years by taking his seat on the bench
of that great tribunal.
