EXPENSIVE
PATRIOTISM
Annual Sacrifice of Life and Property
on independence Day Should Be
Suppressed

independence Day is coming; the
day of powder, poisoning and lockjaw;
the day of hospitals, ambulances, mu-
tilation, fire and death
The idea of the safe and sane cele-
bration OF July 4th is becoming more
popular as the people generally fully
appreciate the awful life and property
loss that is entailed each year by the
careless handling and sale OF the
deadly fire cracker When the abso-
lutte prohibition OF the use and sale
of this instrument of suffering and
death, to say nothing of the property
destroyed each year valued at hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars, is ac-
complished in our State and Nation, a
grateful populace will have cause to
give thanks, and meanwhile they can
only hope and pray that the annual
sacrifice can be kept down to the min
imum.
In the mad scramble for the dollar
the average American has gotten away
from the educational significance of
independence Day, and the more SEN
sational and hazardous the ,amuse-
ment, the louder the plaudits OF GER
tain classes of the people, 1t is per-
haps too much TO expect a complete
return to sanity in a year or two, but
the business man and patriotic citizen
in all the larger centers of population
are taking more urgent steps each
year to prevent this annual loss of

life and property sacrificed in the
name of a patriotic demonstration
Many of the cities and villages have
taken steps looking toward the COM
plete prohibition of the sale and use
of fireworks of any kind, and the
State Fire Marshal Department of
Minnesota asks the cooperation of all
municipal authorities and patriotic
citizens of the State to the end that
the expensive nuisance may be abat-
led.
A striking illustration of what con-
certed effort along this line will ac-
complish is shown by the experience
OF Washington, D. c. In the year 1908
fireworks were sold in that city on
July 4th and one hundred and four
people, young and old, were placed in
the various hospitals. In the year
1900 the sale and use was prohibited,
and not one person was taken TO any
hospital in the city. The experience
of the Capitol City of the Nation GER
tainly demonstrates that satisfactory
results can be obtained
The following statistics covering a
period Of eight years will be of espe-
cia1 interest, demonstrating the ne
cessity Of the cooperation of the pri-
vate citizen and public official to sup
press this menace to life and proper

The hip pocket method has displaced the
old bootleg plan in Oklahoma. Bootleg
ging' is still applied to the various methods
adopted for the sale of intoxicating liquors
in that prohibition state. but it is mis-
nomer for in majority of cases the pres
ent day pedlers Of booze carry ii in half
pint and pint bottles in their nip pockets.
The term "bootlegger" had an honest
origin, but "bootlegging" in the new Okla
homa has lost its old time realism. In the
old Indian Territory days. when every
citizen wore high boots. the first method
employed to get liquor into the Indian
| country was to conceal several fiat bottles
in each bootleg This custom was soon dis
covered however. by the watchful officers.
and 1t was not long until every time
deputy United States marshal passed
suspected citizen he stopped him and in
spected his boots.
] When II became dangerous TO transport
! liquor in ones bootleg other schemes were
put into operation. The axles Of wagons
were made hollow, so that they would hold
several gallons Of liquor. and one time the
cocoanut trade in Indian Territory was more
extensive than in any other place In the
West Deputy Marshals began TO wonder
why the citizens in that section had de-
veloped such a fondness for cocoanuts, but
they were not long in learning that the
| natural milk Of the nut was taken out ana
each shell then held a quart OF whiskey.
The term bootlegging' vas never lost.
however. and continued TO be applied TO
! every form Of illegal sale of liquor
1t used TO be proper question when one
was soliciting a drink to ask. Got any
thing in your boot?" But now the polite
question in the parlance OF the profession
is Got anything on your hip?"
Not only have the male 'bootleggers'
adopted the pocket method. but II has also
been resorted TO by the female purveyors
OF intoxicants. Recently Sheriff Sale. or
Norman. arrested a woman on bootleg
| glng" charge, who had for several weeks
been able to dodge the officers. She was
searched and IL was found that her petit
coat contained twenty pockets, each just
the right size 10 hold a half-pint bottle OF
whiskey Another woman was arrested az

across q meadow and at a designated
place she would clip a string with par

German ethnolcgist. W. after amusing

native life in the South Seas. made the
statement that a genuine Tahitian hula

stoutly supported him. The learned teu-
ton listened indulgently.
Oats a priddy zweeping statement he
ventured. You haf tried money, no doubt
but haf you der gindness tried?'
We we're compelled to admit that moth
ing systematic in the way of kindness had
been attempted upon which the doctor
launched into an extended dissertation on
the futility of trying to do anything with
South Sea natives on buy and SELL
basis. Early in his residence in Tahiti. he
said. he came to a realization of the ba-
lnal,ty OF anything not freely given by the
Islanders. Accordingly. he had taken up
his residence In Hiteaea, the least civil
Ted village OF the island. and first by
judicious presents, later Dy lhcesSdHl HI
tercourse with them in the affairs or thelr
daily life, succeeded in winning the conh-
dence and affection Of the simple inhab-
itarts. AS a consequence many privileges
which other foreigners had endcavored TO
win by purchase had been extended to him
as a brother. among these being that ot
