A Flagstaff Incident

4 trade rat sat on bath-tub one
 day, And he wished he could steal it
 right away, Supposing twas possible. for a
 trade rat To accomplish such big job as
 that. He wondered, sitting there wash
 ing his face, What the dickens to put in its
 place! This was the thought that was
 puzzling him As he sat on the edge of the porce-
 lain brim. But the edge of bath-tub is not
 safe place For trade rat in Flagstaff to wash
 his own face. He found it in fact but slippery
 perch, Cause an earthquake came and
 gave it a lurch. This was the thing that happened
 to him: He just took header and went
 for a swim In Flagstaff swimming is very
 rare, But rats you know can swim any,
 where. Yet after all it was most unwise For "a country rat to try for rise Out of that town--he had not the
 heft, And in the end was sure to get
 left This was the thing that happened

Fighting Parcels Post

The popular demand for the parcels
post is steadily growing and the presi-
dent has recommended to congress the
installation Of a system for rural par
cells post service first as an experiment,
with the view Of extension later. This
has naturally evoked opposition to
the movement from large mercantile
firms, persuaded that their interests
would not be subserved by such a sys-
tenn whose benefits to the people gem
orally can scarcely be questioned.
Under the name of the American
League of Associations, these mercan-
tile establishments are said to be for
mulating a determined campaign to
defeat the parcels post Evidently they
propose to pursue educational lines and
build up a sentiment against the sys-
TEN among people the country over.
A large fund, II is said, is available to
wage opposition to the presidents
plan, beginning at once the work in
the rural districts This is quite plaus-
ible, since from rural districts the So
called catalogue houses have reaped
their principal returns while the
strictly wholesale concerns deal with
the local retailer.
So people may be prepared to re-
ceive literature from this new source
of education" telling them how in
furious for them win be the parcels
post. It will behoove the people to
do some careful thinking OF their own,
therefore, and to give heed to what the
president and the postmaster general
have to say as disinterested parties in
favor of the parcels post

Opium Troubles at Home.

Americans have generously gone to
the aid of China's new regime in its
effort to overcome the insidious opium
habit among its people and Chinese
reformers do not hesitate to acknOwl-
edge their debt of gratitude to our
people. But it appears that Amer
leans have an opium problem at their
own doors, without going to China to
seek one If the home problem is as
grave as represented It will call for all
the ingenuity which philsnthropic peo-
pie can give to it, for opium users are
very crafty and subtle in their
schemes for obtaining the drug.
Under the laws of the United States
opium may not be imported except for
medicinal purposes and yet, 1t is said.
that only one-fourth of the $4,000
pounds of the drug annually brought
into this country is used for legitimate
purposes, the other three-fourths being
consumed by those unfortunate per-
sons called dope fiends" 1t is sold
to them in various forms and DISCUSSES
and under many different names and
labels, but they seem to have little
trouble in getting what they want.
Police court records in almost any
city in the land will reveal a shocking
spread of this debasing and degenerat-
ing habit among men and women.
Nor is that all of the problem. Ac-
cording to a recent Washington dis
patch in the st, Louis Globe-Democrat,
an opium farm is being, or is about to
be, conducted in this country. The fact
came out through the application of a
man in Chicago for an internal rev.
enue license permitting him to use
opium in manufacture for smoking
purposes. When asked where he
would get his opium, he replied he
would produce It on plantation Of his
own. And the worst of it is, that
under the law, as at present consti-
tuted, the government is powerless to
prevent him doing this so long as he
pays the government, an internal rev.
enue Of $40 a pound on his opium. OF
course it is not impossible to amend
the law to deal with the case. But the
story suggests the necessity of some
energetic work at home as well as in
China by Americans anxious to eradi-
cate the opium habit

Criminal Carelessness.

Reckless carelessness or negligence
is more culpable than people will ordi-
narily admit, especially in large cities,
surcharged with their high potential
tiles Of death. The slightest mistake
may bring deadly disaster, as was the
case in that Grand Central station ex-
plosion In New York, where human
beings we're killed or manned in large
numbers.
But this catastrophe, like many a
similar one, will pass into history and
be soon forgotten without serving in
sufficient degree as a warning or pre-
caution for the future, unless empha-
sis is laid on its preventableness. In
some way an example must sooner or
later be made OF one of these whole
sale distinctions of life, so many of
which have occurred in this country
within the last few years. 1t has been
hard for courts and juries to deal eff
fectually with crimes of omission. The
trials Of those held to account, as
rule, do not come up until the shock
has passed away and the first burst
of impassioned sympathy for the vic
tins has been all but forgotten. Public
indignation has cooled down and the
sense of outrage has lost it's sting and
keen demand for justice. sympathy
has veered the other way and i'm
munity usually follows the trial of the
accused, who are otherwise reputable
citizens.
OF course responsibility is eYaded,
not with any intended depreciation of
the value OF life or even property, but
the effect is the same. 1t breeds the
spirit Of carelessness and whether 1t
paves the way for another such "acci-
dent" at least sets up no warning
against it.
People have no right to play reck-
lessly with gas, electricity, dynamite
and, other explosives and dangerous
elements. Only by exerting every pre-
caution can these elements be safely
handled. Obviously such care was not
taken in this New York case. The
same is found to be true of nearly all
similar calamities While no way exists
of absolutely preventing accidents of
this kind, there is a way of reducing
their number and that way is by more
systematic methods than have been
employed.

tive day Of thousands OF people is
spent in factory or mill. The state Of
their health depends largely upon the
sanitary conditions Of those places Of
occupation. Italy has been doing
some effective work, which, in its per-
manent organization, our country
might adopt That is the maintenance
Of clinics for the study and prevention
of Industrial diseases. Above all,
rigid sanitary inspection system
should be accompanied with records
of industrial sicknesses to afford a
means of measuring progress and test
ing remedies. Nor should there be a
question Of state or national control,
but rather sane coordination of &C
tivities for this work.
