The Price of Coal.
(Rockland Opinion.)


In Bath, only 80 miles from here,
and a place where there are not so
good facilities for handling invoices
of coal as in Rockland-since river
towage has to be added to other ex
pense-coal is selling for only $3.50,
while in Rockland people have to pay
$3.50 and regard themselves as spe-
cially favored and under great OBJ
legations to the dealers if they get all
they need >at that There may be
excellent reasons for this difference
but, whatever these may be, it be-
hooves our business people and board
of trade to inquire what they are, and
see what can be done about it. No
city can enjoy permanent business
prosperity that cannot offer to manu-
facturers and citizens generally cheap
coal. This artificial coal famine" is
not merely a grind on individuals, it
is a blow at the industries and the
business of the city. Rockland must
have cheap electric power, cheap
lights and cheap coal, or it can never
make much progress. 1t must at
least have these things as cheaply as
other neighboring cities of it's class.
How shall we get them? Well, the
first thing is to realize and under
stand that we must have them-that
they are Indispensable. We will
trust the people to find the way if
they recognize the Importance of it.

The brief of the solicitor general in
form is a defense of the constitu-
tionality of the recent act of con-
gress regulating newspapers. In
fact, it is practically a confession of
the acts unconstitutionality.
The solicitor general admits that
there is no power with congress to
regulate the press or to prescribe
conditions that must be complied
with before a newspaper Is admitted
to the mails. The sole point APP
parently that he seeks to make is that
admission to the second class is n
special privilege, and that as to such
admission congress may prescribe as
it pieases. His theory is that as long
as it is possible to mail newspaper
at letter postage it cannot be said
that congress is setting up a censor
ship and violating one of the most
explicit of the amendments to the
constitution.
The solicitor general is aware, as
every one else is, that ii is impossible
for one newspaper To pay 16 cents q

China SURPRISING Opium Habit,

a few months ago in discussing the
temperance problem with a man for
whom we have the utmost respect but
who does not believe IN prohibition.
we remarked that We hoped to live to
see America as progressive as China !;
that we hoped the United States
would some day awaken to the folly
and sin of its drug and booze traffic
and would wipe it out as China is wip-
ing out its opium culture and traffic.
Our friend declared his conviction
that China would never rid herself of
the opium curse; that it was impossi
bic after being burned into its hu-
mainly for ages. We predicted that
he would live to see China free from
tie curse and we are even more con-
faent today than one year ago.
This week the Journal of the
American Medical Association gives
an interesting history of the progress
made by China in five years reduction
of the opium habit. What pity that
we can not go as far and as fast, in the
reduction of our great national down
drag
The establishment of the Chinese
Republic has led many oecidentals to
change their opinion as to the lethargy
and inertia which they supposed char
acteristic of the inhabitants of the
story of accomplishment in China,
however, during the past five years,
which makes it even clearer than the
recent revolution that there are UNI
dreamed of springs of energy IN the
Chinese people. About five years ago
the Chinese government decided that
opium smoking, which had become the
national vice of China, even TO
greater extent than alcoholism is of
the Western nations. must stop, and
that within ten years. 1t is scarcely
to be wondered at that when this gov
tdiNl was iSSuth 1t w hto Slttb-
ed with smiles everywhere; five years
have passed and now the world knows
that success in the great national cru
sade seems almost assured.
The method that China is pursuing
is interesting. Five years ago China
and Great Britain made what is
known as "the ten years agreement"
by which the British government I'M
dertook to reduce the amount of
opium sold in Calcutta on government
account for export to China by 10 peg
cent. every year until the traffic had
Leased. On her part China agreed to
diminish her own production in a cor
responding way Measures were to be
taken to reduce the growth of opium
in China 10 per cent. each year until
at the end of ten years no more would
be raised. With supplies from India
cut off and the home crop reduced
and eventually suppressed altogether,
the opium habit must necessarily dis
appear. The results accomplished thus
far are promising. Travellers report
that it is no longer common to see
men smoking opium at their own
DOORS Even two years after the edict,
those who smoked did so in secret.
The edet is being enforced. The ag-
ricultural map of China shows after
five years that there has been an &C
tual reduction of so per cent. in the
production of opium. There has been
as great a reduction in its use. All
the world will watch with interest
this other awakening of China, and
the oriental method of solving a great
social question.

Probably for the first time in the
history of the port of Portland, says
the Press, there is a steamer there that
will take cargo made up almost
wholly of flax. About every one knows
what flax seed Is, for there are few
that have not used a poultice made of
the little grains. OF all the trouble
some cargoes. flax is regarded as the
worst in the grain line. When it is
brought in cars, canvas has TO be
spread on the floors. 1t is so fine that
it runs much like water and is slip
perry in addition. The Cairndhu, which
viii take about 240, 900 bushels of grain,
will have the most of it flax. The
steamship arrived at Portland at IL
o'clock Monday evening. after rough
trip. She sailed from Newcastle on
