"coURTEslEs OF THE PORT"

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: If the dispatch is correct which at
tributes to Colonel Roosevelt a resolution
to reject the ''courtesies of the port" which
il is said we're to be extended to him, and
to pay whatever he owes on every dutiaole
article that no brings through the custom
House, then we shall be in his debt for
precious object lesson. I see In the public
prints a good many explanations OF the
smuggling impulse that Overtakes persons
of otherwise unimpeachable conduct. But
among these 1 have not as Yet come upon
any reference to the Oldest and worst
source of this foolish, dishonest and very
vulgar error. I mean nothing more or less
than the rank favoritism which flourished
for years behind that specious phrase OF
the "courtesIes Of the port"
When they are legitimate courtesies no
one in his senses could object to them
Ambassadors and similar perSonages are
obviously to be treated as guests, ana
doubtless there are other travellers, from
time to time. who should be accorded the
privilege of entering the country without
any examination of their baggage. I am
sure, too, that in the present instance Colo
mel Roosevelt's fellow countrymen would
be dee-lighted to spare him the payment of
duties Nevertheless. I am willing to wager
a wiIdnerness of monkeys to a piece of pie
that thousands of Americans have been
moved to wish that they might beat the
government on their return from Europe
by, the spectacle presented TO them on the
pier of several OF their fellow voyagers
going scot free because they had managed
to secure for themselves from some good
natured official the 'couTtesies of the
port l am quite prepared to be told that
these 'courtesies'' have for some years
been jealousy reserved for those really en-
titled to them, but IL is not so long since
they were fairly rampant. I can we'll re-
member in my own time nearly choking to
death with indignation because on my re-
turn to the land of equality 1 was vividly
reminded that I could not, citizen with
no friends in office, disembark on the same
terms with others who were luckier. Mem
ories of those days of unfair discrimination
must still linger in many quarters and so
keep alive the smuggling instinct. Colonel
Roosevelt, in paying his shot, will do much
to support the now standard of impartiality
which We all want to SEE firmly estab-
lished. WILBERFORCE WATTS.

PURE ROOD DECISIONS.

4 collection of short reports OF viola
tions of the national pure food law just
issued by the Department OF Agricult-
ure records the following penaltles I'M
posed within the last year or TWO: For
selling bogus lemon and strawberry
fiavoring extracts. S40o; olive oil adul-
terated with cottonseed oil. 500; an
article which purported TO be gin but
was not derived from the jumper Derry,
SD; Il mixture of skim milk cheese and
starch labelled cream cheese, S1o and
a substance which was credited with
the quality of imparting the character
istics Of true butter to an imitation, 81.
Other instances mentioned in the re-
ports included $50 cases marked "Elgin
Creamery Butter" but made at Pierce
vile. Ill: 1,500 sacks labelled white
Oats but containing several kinds of
grain, and % packages of what was rep
resented TO be Roquefort cheese, though
II did not come from France and lacked
the traits of the Roquefort product. In
each of these three eases the defendants
pleaded guilty. but they were not com
PEELED to pay a fine They were merely
required to file bond which pledged
them not to sell the particular lots of
merchandise in question in the United
States.
It is noteworthy that while all the
decisions here enumerated were rem
dered by United States District courts
no two of them were given in the same
district. No doubt some of the diversity
in the judgments was due tadifferences
in the amounts of the frauds. expressed
in money. Besides, it is possible that
extenuating circumstances may have
been SO urgently presented by counsel
that some milder sentences were i'm
posed than might have been expected.
Nevertheless. after due allowance has
been made for these influences. it still
looks as if certain offenders had got off
too easily.

4 report read to the United States
Brewers Association, which IS holding
a convention in Atlantic City. seems
To reconcile two sets Of paradoxes when
il says that though the territory in which
alcoholic beverages can be legally sold
Is being steadily contracted the sale of
such bevera ges is rapidly increasing, and
that though the people Of the United
States drink larger quantities of stimu.
lants each year they are nevertheless
becoming more and more temperate.
There is. therefore, some cheer in the
outlook for every one-the prohibitionist,
the maker and seller of alcoholic drinks
and the advocate Of their use intelli-
gently and in mOdera ton.
The brewers say that they rejoice in
the spread of temperance. They ought
10. for they have most TO gain by the
substitution of beer for heady and in
furious hard liquors. The paradox of
greater per capita sale Of alcoholic bev-
erages now than before the prohibition
movement became so powerful is prob
ably explained in part by the freer use
of beer and light wines in communities
which have been educated To prefer
them TO ales and whiskey. The brewers
have nothing TO fear from the spread Of
habits Of moderation. and the better the
product they turn out and the lower its
percentage of alcohol the greater will
be the service they do TO the cause Of
temperance and order The sale Of
liquor in this country has been sur
rounded with many disagreeable asSO-
Citations. and il would be a great gain
for sobriety and good conduct if it could
be invested with greater responsibility.
The brewers lament the intolerance OF
prohibition. But ii is another paradox,
which their report does not dwell upon,
that the aims Of the prohibitionists
should be SO nearly identical with their
own avowed aims. The prohibitionists
have been led TO attack the liquor traf-
nc chiefly because of its abuses-espe-
cially IFS abuses against the family and
public order But the brewers could not
promote their own interests better than
by cradicating those abuses and max
ing the beer traffic as unobjectionable
heye as il is in Germany The brewers
have therefore a signal opportunity 10

hut also much more than that. The Ant
arctic region never aroused the interest
and enthusiasm which the North Pole
lzjndled in the breasts ef men. It lacked
the historic glamour, the romantic tradi-
ton. the age-old defiance of conquest
faunted in the face OF conquering man
Inv the frozen North. The attainment of
Farthest South viii merely yield another
stirring tale of hardship, endurance and
daring, but what has already begun TO
attract the attention of the world is the
report that gold may be found in those
inhospitable regions in paying quanti-
ties. This gives to the two expeditions
an element of interest which is not with
out a touch Of romance of its own.

THE FIGHT AGAINST THE Fly

The Health Commissioner. DIR. Le-
derle. does well to call the attention of
the public anew to the desirability of
waging systematic and persistent cam
paign against the house fly and TO the
practical means and methods for max
ing that campaign effective. Some of
the so-called sanitary or hygienic move
ments Of recent years have gone too far.
or in an injudicious direction. Some
persons have become micrObe mad
morbid on the subject of chiefly imagi-
nary germs But the campaign
against the fly. like that against the
mosquito and that against the rat and
that against the pollution of water with
sewage. is commended by positive
knowledge as we'll as by the most ordi-
nary observation.
The dirt which fly carries, and which
would be bad enough Oh its own ac-
count. is well known to be capable of
conveying some of the deadliest of
diseases. 1t is doubtless true that un-
counted millions of flies have crawled
upon articles of food without causing a
single case Of illness: but it is also
doubtless true that a large proportion OF
so-called sporadic" cases of diseases
such as typhoid and diphtheria may be
correctly attributed to the agency of
flies. and that from this source proceed
many. if not most, of the cases of ell
teric trouble among children-"summer
complaint and cholera infantum-iS
scarcely to be questioned.
The practicahility of very largely
abating the plague of flies is sufficiently
indicated TO warrant the undertaking.
In several large cities and in one coun-
try rats have been almost entirely e1-
terminated. In extensive regions where
once they were almost incredibly abun-
dant and pernciOus mosquitoes have
been caused TO disappear or TO become
so scarce as to offer no menace to life,
health or comfort. The fly is larger
than the mosquito. and therefore its
presence is more easily detected. and it
is far less tenacious Of life, and there
fore is more easily destroyed. The
literature Of practical instruction on this
subject which the Health Board is about
TO put forth will be welcome and will
deserve the careful perusaI and practi-
cal application of the public.

A days dispatches from the peaceful

a Lisbon (Ohio) man, indulged in a
battle with vexed bull, and, managing
to climb into d tree, died before help
arrived. A Pennsylvanian, from Tyrone
was instantly killed by being kicked in

also in the keystone State, a matron
was feeding grass to a pet colt, when it
playfully bit off q. perfectly good index
finger. In West Virginia, while a farmer
was trying to part two fighting tur
keys, an unheralded cow entered the
