proper control of the drug traffic will be obtained.
 o nthe other hand, Dr. Wiley, appearing as a private citizen, urged the enactment of the proposed regulations on the ground that they will enable the authorities to keep track of these drugs after they are imported, and the regulations will do a world of good and contribute largely to the suppression of the drug habit He ex- pressed his belief that the regulations would stand a test in the courts and will be the stepping stone to the final enact ment of a stringent law that will supple ment the present statutes and eventually rid the country of dope fiends" and mal- practitioners.
 While the authorities whose duty it will be to pass finally on the draft of the reg ulations, have taken the matter under ad- visement and have given no indication as to what their final decision will be, 1t is the belief of those in touch with the stu- ation that the regulations. if approved at all, will be greatly altered before they are put into force. It is urged that it would be a waste of time and money todeavor deavor to carry out regulations that have no direct penalty attached to them and leave the matter of compliance largely to the honor and willingness to comply to those directly or indirectly affected by the regulations.
 As pointed out by pr. Wiley, however. there is at least one good effect the pro- posed regulations would have. if no other, and that is the bringing to light Of cer- tain so-called physicians, who are in real ity 'purveyors of drugs" These ''physl- clans,' whose title as such gives them the right to write prescriptions for these drugs, are largely responsible for the spread of the drug habit, according to Dr. Wiley. and the means of tracing the drugs through the various channels of trade would ''spot them out and put them out of business" as stated by the former mill tant chief chemist at the recent hearing.

THE CITY ELECTION HAS BEEN
HELD.


Judge Mason will hold the grand
Jury untllnext week After the jurors
have inquired into the crimes that
have been committed in this county
they will be called back Il need be
after the city election has been held.
In addressing the jury today Judge
Mason said
"Gentlpmen: shall ask you to con-
slider first, all felony cases which may
be called to your attention and act
upon them, and make report
81 shall then adjourn this jury uh-
I'll some day next week which will best
suit your convenience. Ny reason for
adjournlng you until next week is that
the regular city election for Fairmont
will he held next Saturday, and the
CITY of Warrington is holding its cleo
ton to-day. AS is usual in such cases
there is considerable political excite
ment and feeling. 1t will be difficult
for the grand jurors and the officers OF
the court to avoid being involved III
these CONTROVERSIES to some extent. ]
do not want to deprive you OF the priv
ileee Of exercising your rights as citl'
zens, nordo want the proceedings "a

way interEered with. | am sure all
persons, including the Judge, officers
OF the court. jurors and witnesses Will
feel freer to act and be less liable to
criticism and mtsconstructlOn by hay'
ing tIla. .iTsest pus us;s q fter the,
election when politics can not enter
into tic proceedings. 1t is my earn
est desire in all cases to keep politics
out of the courts. and that only proper
prosecutions shall be instituted. The
court is no place to punish enemies or
favor friends.
at has been suggested by SOME Of
our citizens that such adjournment
might. be construed as an attempt to
intimidae legal voters. by holding the
grand Jury in session until after the
election. ] have considered this care
fully. can't see how there can be
the slightest ground for complaint on
this account Clearly no man who
does not intend to violate the law will
care whether the grand jury is in ses'
sion or not, and the man who wants
10 violate The Law ought to be prevent
ed from doing so. 1t is much better
10 prevent men from violating law
than to stand by and permit them to
do so and then punish them. A policy
which prevents men from violating
law is not subject 10 Just criticism. II
is no pleasure to me to have our jail
filed with criminals or our treasury
oyerflowng with money derived from
fines. What we want is good law
aboiding citizens"
Judge Mason also announced that
as the Republican primaries are called
for the second day OF the June term
that the grand jury will not be called
until after the primaries.

ment OF the Democratic tariff revision
programme with.a view OF speeding
up congress to, permit adjournment
before the Democratic National con-
yentfon, is now the expressed aim OF
the Democratic majority in the house.
Republicans and Democrats in the
senate and house are chatting over the
delay in actual Legislation which
threatens TO crowd congress later OH.
Democratic Leader Underwood indi-
Gated today that the wool tariff reyl.
sion bill which is to be reported proba-
bly, within ten days will be the Inst
Of the revision measures ut this ses-
sion of congress.
II think our tariff revision bills VIII

We expect to report within 10 days"
said Mr.. Underwood today. There
is no use for us to go any further ur-
less we find out what the President IS
going to do. We have passed a steel
bill and a chemical bill. we will pass
a sugar iii and then We will have a
wool bill. We will have made our
record on the tariff with these sched-
ules and am opposed to going any
further If the work is wasted"

wood was asked.
