When Dealers Fear the Law.

Some very significant points have
been brought out by the Legislative
investigation of sheriffs. Some Of
these points are highly enlightening.
For instance. while the investiga :
ton is under way, the State is as dry
as Sahara. Not even the Portland.
Bangor and Lewiston GASES can wet
single whistle.
Again. the defense in the case Of
Sherini Moulton of Cumberland coun-
~, gave evidence that when COM
plant was made 10 the sheriff that a
booze joint had opened up next door
TO a friend Of the sheriff, WHO
OBJECTED, it was promptly closed.
And yet it was conclusively proven
that IN scores of other places anyone
with the price could go in and buy,
and no questions asked.
Thus In spite of dishcnest claims by
the rum crowd, it is easily evident
that the law may be enforced by any
sheriff who desires to do so.
The rum traffic can b. stopped III
any time when the dealers fear the
law.
If jail sentences and fines We're
heavy enough, occasional activity by
the sheriffs and police would end tho
business IN this state.

The New York Mail says: Demo
Gratis are finding that the preparation
OF tariff schedules Is not all beer and
skittles. The revision Of one schedule
has the same tendency To pull out all
the other schedules in The reign OF
Wilson just as in the reign Of Taft or
Roosevelt or Mckinley. The stop
for wool is pulled out and the organ
begins to play sugar. You give Ohio
sour grapes and the teeth of Louisiana
is set on edge. Democratic tariff
makers seem TO have pulled out all the
stops at once for the obvious purpose
Of having all the discordant sounds
going at the same time. and TO thus
escape In the general din. But they
will discover that the din will con-
tinue and that they will only escape
as did the Cleveland Democracy Of 3
generation ago.

1t may be positively stated that the
principal cause of antimilitarism in
France is the action of the bourgeois
republican government in abusing the
military power against strikers.
Throughout the last 20 years, when

| In this connection the report jHst
sent out by the t. s. Bureau of Ed
ueation of the study Of conditions in
Minnesota by DIR. Ernest b. Hoag
and some of the surprising facts re-
vealed by personal visitation Of the
rural schools. He found that 50 per
cent. Of The children OF the country
schools of that state drink tea and
coffee; that 30 per cent suffer from
almost constant tooth ache, and that 10
To - per cent. have frequent head
ache. DR. Hoag says:
When ] ask those who drink coffee
10 stand up" says DIR. Hoag, nearly
all the children arise When ask
how many have q toothbrush. nearly
all say they have but when / ask Did
YOU use il this morning. there is little
response"
Many of the children assumed that
headache, eafaehe, md other ailments
were perfectly natural things, and
seemed surprised that anybody should
be curious about them why, I al
ways have headache" they would say.
He found that by simple questions
about the children's eyesight, the
teacher. without any optical tests at
ai. would discover that 20 per cent.
Of her children suffer from eye strain.
From II to IA per cent. OF the coun-
Try school children suffer from car
ache. and per cent. have diseharging
ears. "Adenoids, earache. discharging
ears. Deafness that's the order we
ind over and over again." says DR..
Hoas -Four or five per cent. Of the
ehiidrsn simply do not hear what is
going on and therefore are put down
as stupid when they are not.
| The commonest principles of hygiene
are frequently neglected In one
school visited, an old-fashioned un-
5acketed stove had sent the thermo-
meter TO the sizzling height of 90 de-
grees. while it was 10 below zero out
of-doods a difference of 100 degrees.

orally pientifully fed. but they do not
eat the right kind of food. People in
the country do not breathe pure air.
because, with abundance of il all
afhut them. they carefully exclude
1T from their houses by keeping the
windows tightly closed. These are
some of the things that have caused

good health as compared with the
city.
In order to remedy conditions, thor

where it can be had, but much can be
done by the teacher herself without
any elaborate medical methods Teach
ers in the Minnesota schools are pro

OPIUM IN HOLLOW MAST.
How Oriental Smuqglers Secretea
the Drug Aboard Liner.

Customs inspectors and special
agents were given an object lesson
yesterday on board the liner Persia IN
the art of hiding opium as developed
by the Oriental opium smugglers who
infest the ships of the Transpaeflc
lines.
The ingenuity of the Chinese in con-
irving hiding places for the drug has
been Il source of constant be&ilder-
ment to the government searchers.
Yesterdays revelation made the most
experienced OF them scratch their
heads.
In the liners steel foremost, just
above the main deck, where it passes
through what Is known as the lamp
room, had been cut Il large opening
and in the hollow mast had been fixed
a Storerocm capable Of holding ton
or two of the drug. The fact that the
removal of this section of steel i'm
periled the mast cid not trouble the
smugslerS.
The worl, was done at Hongkong
and after the opium had been placed
inside the cut out section Of steel was
replaced and then lay Il cunning dis
position Of putty and paint the mast
was restored tn its original appear
anoe.
The British police IT Henekons. who
had been asked To cooperate with the
Pacific Mail Company iii sappfesslns
the traffic, learned about the hiding
place before the ship left that port.
They boarded tie liner. removed the
plate and seized 560 tins Of the poppy
