The basis of the plan is develop

capital must be aided by the state or
nation through corporate franchises.
condemnation of private property, and
licenses to use public lands and OBJ
struct public waters, etc. Under the
plan, the power companies would have
time, and chance for generous
profits on their actual investment. For
the public, the plan attempts to pro-
vide for good service, fair prices, full
publicity as to cost, honest capitaliza-
ton and fair rentals for public prop
erty, used by the companies.
The plan comedies that the federal
government has no jurisdiction in
dealing with the problem of power
sites unless its land is to be occupied,
or navigable rivers affected 1t is pro-
posed that the regulation of service
and prices is to be function of the
state, leaving to the national govern
ment the duty of obtaining prompt,

sonable time limit for the leases, pub
licity as to financiering and fair rent

paying part of the proceeds to the

II was about an hour later when

in the way to chat with the gateman.
I was sittfns On the edge of the bed,
loosening the heel of one of my rub

when suddenly through the stiffness
of the sleeping town. from the power
house half mile away came low
and rising note, the great siren WINS
tie in the power housa> Almost fasci-
mated. I listened as the seat note rose
higher and more shrill and died away
again. One blast meant fire in the
town; two blasts, fire in the buildings
at the mine; and three blasts, the
most terrible of all, disaster OF
trouble in the mine. Once more, after
an interminable pause, the sound came
again: and once more rose and died
away. 1 did not move, but there was
sudden GOODNESS that came over me as

Trouble in Dealing With Drug Evil

to an unfailing and always profitable
demand. For instance, the average
apothecary nowadays finds a large
and unprecedented demand for "co-
deine"-one of the alkaloids, or active
principles, of opium. 1t is only about
one-third as powerful as morphine, but
acts similarly. The sale of morphine
is forbidden by law nearly every
where at the present time, except on
prescription by a physician, but in
most of the states there is no such
restriction in regard to codeine-
whence the growing popularity of the
latter.
The sale of "heroip" also has great
ly increased since the enforcement of
restrictions on opium and morphine.
This is what chemists would term a
morphine derivative"-thatis to say,
substance derived from morphine by
certain monkeyinGs in the laboratory.
1t acts just like morphine, and the
habit formed by taxing 1t is not less
destructive. Yet at the present time
there is nowhere any law or ordi-
nance against the sale OF "heroin, {"
and the only charge that can be
brought against druggist who sup
plies it is that he deals in danger

But what is the use? Where opium

instances consumed in the form of q
tincture-that is to say, as laudanum.

w HILE trying to cooperate with
w China for the suppression of traf-
tic in illicit opium, our government is
having troubles of its own in dealing
with the problem in the United States.
Under the new law the drug is not
admitted at our ports unless intended
solely for medicinal use; yet there is
no question of the fact that something
like three-fourths of the $4,000 pounds
of opium imported annually Is con-
sumed by the unfortunates known pop
ularly as dope fiends."
OF such dope fiends there are a
nnmber of species, which is one rea-
son why the opium problem is so hard
to tackle successfully. There are, to
begin with, the, smokers of opium,
who are said to compose an army of
about 10000 of our citizens. These,
however, are a minority in the total
number of victims, most of whom pur-
sue the destructive habit in it's more
highly specialized forms, particularly
the taking of morphine in pills or by
hypodermic injection.

method of procuring or using the
drug, another springs up in response

something more than gossip that Tam
many wanted to marry into the Mon
tauk tribe.
When the Indians began to dispose
of their lands on Long Island they at
first got real Dutch money, or its
equal in disable barter. But it wasn't
always SO. Take the gallant old Chief
Smackatagh, for example. He held a
considerable stretch of wave-washed
land on the ocean side Of the island.

maiden, was anxious to acquire tract
upon which she and her intended hus-
band might make their home. Smack.

incident-offered to sell the required
acres.
How much?" asked Sally, leaning
against the door and rolling her hands
up in her apron.
The big chiefs solemn face broke
into grin as he replied that he would
sell it for kiss. Why, she sat down
with her father, who knew a thing
or two about such laws of contracts as
obtained at the time, and drew up a
contract which the chief signed. Then
she turned her plump cheek to the In
dian, who kissed it and went away
satisfied. The contract, which is still
in existence, reads:

tracke Of land from Chief Smackatagh,

fare and sickness made such great In
roads during the next three genera
lions, that, instead of increasing in
number, they had become less thar zoe
j in 1859. In 1929 tribal roll call was
answered by only 80, and 40 years
thereafter there were only 20.
The last real council of the tribe
was convened in the early seventies
Chief David Pharaoh went to the coun.
Gil arrayed in all the ancient plumery
of the Montauks, and called his follow
ers to their places IN a scmi-circle
around him. He passed the pipe from
one to another in silence, and then ad
dressed them as the father of the
tribe. Could it be, he asked, that the
tribe, which had lived for centuries in
happiness on Long Island, was doom
ed to extinction? What had the tribes
men to say? Nothing. 1t was late aft
ernoon. The chief bowed his heal and
with the others sat in silence. By and
by the sun went down. Then the CHIEF
arose, folded his cloak about him,
made a sign that the council had done
its work, and passed with measured
stride into the shadows. The others
followed.

deeds. The tribe had ceased to ex

troops within SO hours embarka-
ton point.
When Secretary of War Dickinson
and Brig.-Gen Clarence Edwards,
chief of the bureau of insular affairs
of the war department, visited Cuba
in November, last year, they were
startled and amazed by the disrupted
and corrupt conditions which they
found existing there.
1t was on the strength Of their re-
port and those of John B. Jackson,
minister to Cuba, that the admins
tration deemed it advisable to nave
troops and munitions of war in readi-
ness for immediate use. Leading OIL
GERS of the army do not believe that
the American flag can be planted In
Cuba without bloodshed. 81.
According to reports in the war and
state departments, it has been the
practise" of the United States pro-
tege president in Cuba, Jose Miguel
Gomez, that has led to the undoing OF
all that Gen. Leonard Wood, Presi-
dent Taft and Governor Magoon did
to put the government on substan-
tial basis. These reports state that
many measures have been pushed
through the Cuban legislature for the
benefit of special interests.
Officers of the army familiar with
conditions in Cuba liken them to
those in Corea, saying the only differ
ence is that the factions in Cuba have
not reached the poisoning stage and
that they would rather have revolu-
ton than proceed along the same
lines as did Corea before being an
nexed by Japan. These officers say
they look for final intervention by the
United States within three months.
