South Carolina Executive Also At
tacks Minister.

COLUMBIA. S. c., January 17.-Gov.
Coleman Livingston Blease devoted
nearly half of his inaugural address
today to the press. introducing this
portion with the statement
Aligned against me were a united
daily press and an almost solid weekly
press, pouring forth all kinds of false
hood, vftuperation and abuse. veceiving
the assistance of a number of men who
call themselves ministers Of the gos-
pei (God save the mark), who stooC
behind their pulpits and gave vent to
malice and ISLANDERS OF the most viru-
lent and malicious nature against me-
. All OF these, combined with
others, making a set of thieves, the
meanest and most contemplate people
known to men,"
Gov. Blease denounced government by
injunction. the injunction having been
used by the Ansel administration in en-
forcing the liquor law; ridiculed COM
pulsory education, said he was opposed
to the devotfng Of any portion of the
taxes paid by whites to the education
of negroes and advocated an amend
ment to the liquor laws SO as to allow
counties to vote on a license system
under strict regulations.

BECOMING DOPE FIENDs.
Dr.. Wiley Says Americans Are
Forming the Habit.

That America is in danger Of becoming
a nation Of dope f1ends is the statement OF
DIR. Harvey w. Wiley, chief chemist OF
the Department of Agriculture DR.. Wiley
is pushing a bill before Congress to COM
pei druggists to keep a record of the sale
of all habit-formng drugs. He agrees
with William ]. Scheffiin, president Of the
Wholesale Druggists Association, that
there is an unwarranted amount of opium
and opium derivatives imported into Thu
country.
He says that there is about eight times
as much opium imported as could be le-
ultimately utilized in medical practice,
and the only inference is that the surplus
goes to the habitual drug user.
DIR. Wiley says that the use of drugs
Is the hardest habit to break: that the
advertised drug cures are mostly, if not
ALL fakes, and that it Is next to impos-
sible for a drug user ever TO be cured.
The retail druggists are fighting the pro
posed regulation on the ground that 1T
would be too much trouble to keep such
a record. but Dr. wiley says it is a mat
ter of national necessity. and that il such
a record were kept 1t would not be long
before the publicity accompanying its
publication would reduce the size of the
record and the trouble of keeping 1t.

Italian BARRIERS in District of Chicago
Kent BUSY,

CHICAGO January 17-Italian barber

the benefit of the decision of the China
man to part with his queue
There are no Chinese BARRIERS in the
South Clark street district and Italians.
with characteristic thrift, have had no
tees written in Chinese posted in their
windows announcing that they are ready
for all the queue trade that comes their
way
The Chinese have fallen in with this
suggestion and the trade is going to the
Italian barber shops.
The reason the Italians are SO anxious
to get this business is that there Is a
double profit In 1t, for they not only get
paid for the hair cutting but get the
queue besides and queues are market
able commodity.
