that tho case will he submitted TO arbitra-

THE Morning Post cannot understand

adds: THE Washington government VIII

Chicago, Dec. 10.--The men and women
OF the Progressive party got tosether'
shoulder to shoulder, In national CONFER
ence to-day. Most Of the women want 10
work with the men. Some, more tmid
ones, think 1t would be better for the
women to organize by themselves ana
have their own Progressive Club. Many
OF the men seem to be equally conserva-
tive.
Mr.. Roosevelt explained that In the
Progressive vocabulary men" meant
women" too; but, Of course, he Is OF
the rank and file and can now give only
one humble opinion.

Chicago, Dec. 1O.-Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt. speaking tonight at the fam
lily dinner Of the delegates to the Pro-
gressive party conference. declared that
the Republican administration was spend
ing it's last days" in Furnishing small
postmasters and postmistresses who had
joined the Progressive cause.
Never has there been a more ignoOle

said Colonel Roosevelt. IT'S after cleo

tempt Of all good men and all good

Certain Republican leaders who were

with some who were neither, holding that
they were right I'm their disposal OF con

that other people had stolen before. IL
would seem incredible. but that was the
argument Of n goodly number.
In concluding his speech, Colonel Roose-

ers' as to preclude absolutely their
present practice Of making new GUS

The work Of Fathers Flynn and Far
rell in Brooklyn, as told in the columns
Of The Tribune recently, emphasizes
the point as to child victims of cocaine
mentioned by DR.. Bensel, and it Is be-
lIeved those clergymen and many
others interested in the suppression of
the evil would support the movement
TO give the Health Department the
equipment necessary to get evidence.
On Record for Amendment.
The Kings County Pharmaceutical So
clety. after listening yesterday TO the
reading Of The Tribunes article Of De-
cember g. In which Assemblyman "Af'
Smith outlined his amendment 10 the CO.
caine law, which he later promised to put
before the next Legislature. put Itself on
record as favoring such an amendment
It also authorized DIR. william 6. Ander-
son, chairman OF the sOciety's Legislative
committee, to go TO Washington and con-
fer with DR.. Hamilton Wright. CHIEF
chemist of the Department OF Agriculture,
when national legislation on the subject
was imminent.
DR.. Anderson said yesterday that he did
rot believe the Harrison bill, introduced
into the last Congress and since revised
hit at the root Of the trouble. After placing
a tax on narcotics, he said. 1t rested In
certain national authorities the right to
say what records of their sale should be
Kent and how the records should be COL
lected.
THAT is too vague way TO deal with
a question like this" declared DR.. Ander-
son. The law ought specifically to say
what records should be kept That is 100
important matter TO be left to the dis
erection of any one man or group OF men.
II am not I'm favor of placing tax on
the trade, tax which merely brings In
revenue and does not stop the distriou-
ton of the drugs. What's the use OF say
ing that a retailer shall pay 80 on this
much cocaine and that a wholesaler must
pay 800 and then permit any one,
whether he has technical knowledge or
the handling Of drugs or not, TO Obtain
license 70 deal I'm narcotics on the pay
ment OF fee.
I'VE pharmacists must realize We have
to give up some things that are profitable
10 us for the good Of the public. The
time will come when We shall have fed
eral laws that will trace every ounce OF
narcotic drugs manufactured. Every one
engaged in their distribution will be af-
fected by the laws and II Is Imperative
that they should fasten every one so en-
gagged 10 make il impossible for them 10
distribute the drugs for Illegal purposes.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-12-11

Dr. Anderson went on to say that a,
the courts had failed to convict unde,
the present laws, there should be NOR,
stringent laws. He felt sure. he saiS
the KINGS County Pharmaceutical Society
would back up any law that would stamr
out the terrible traf1ic In cocaine.
BIamss Physicians for "coks.p
Another point which the doctor thoush,
should be emphasized in any conten,.
plated legislation was the dispensing Of
narcotics by physicians. This should b.
entirely stopped. he maintained. Mos,
physicians were honorable men. he sa,d

strained. He continued:
IL the physician wants some ON. >,

each prescription and let these records
be open TO inspection. Then the author.
tiles could soon see what doctors ar,

patients feel we'll and say: That's =

In a minute"
The discussion OF the afternoon was
opened by 7. F. France. a member of N.
society's legislative committee, who SAID
the laws against the sale Of cocaine IN
this state were good as far as they went
but that they were too loose. Any doctor.
dentist or veterinary. he said. could i'm.

without transgressins the law, and there
was a channel. other than the retail drug
