OF medicine which combines or

ENLIGHTENING THE HEATHER
BY Q. 3 Server

A missionary to China, home on a
furlough, told ap interesting story.
Before leaving Canton, he wished to
buy a beautiful inlaid table to give
to the American church which; was
supporting him. The price was reason
able; and he could have made the low.
ing sacrifice, but when he thought of
the tariff to be paid at San Francisco,
he was compelled to leave the table.
He. sighed about it. Sam Wong spoke
some English, and asked him what
was, the. trouble. The missionaryAex-
planned protection as well as he
could-as well as,sanybody could. Sam
was not altogether satisfied with the
explanation; he said Christianity was
queer" In his pigeon English he
said in effect: Your Christ made
pretty tables in Nazareth; he was like
me, he had his little business. it was
not a big factory. Now if you liked the
tables made by your Christ, would
your Christian protection hurt his
business and prevent you from buy
ing for your church, as it prevents
your buying from me?" n
The missionary had to confess that
it would. Then" said Sam, Il like
you, but L-sdon't like your Christ; he
is not a kind man"
The missionary was shocked. He
had to explain that Christ had not es-
tablished projections" and that if
Christ had his way, he, the mission
airy, could have bought the table He

In Ohio

jeopardy Herbert S. Bigelow is now
member of the Legislature. He sees
nothing wrong in forcing a thief to
restore stolen property to the right
full owner even if he has had undis-
turbed possession for Il years. He
does not see. that the thiefs title has
been made any better by Labelling the
stolen goods vested rights" So he
has introduced a bill to- revoke the
franchise. Ohios constitution does
not protect special privileges granted
by one legislature against revocation
by successor.
Cincinnati's predatory circles are
shocked at such disregard of prece-
dent. Heretofore only petty thieves,
when caughtA have been required to
surrender their spoil Heretofore the
plea of being an innocent purchaser
Of stolen goods has been unquestion-
ingly accepted-except when the pur-
chaser was poor and the thing stolen
worth considerably less than a mil
lion But Bigelow holds7that the same
-Pule should apply to big thefts as to
small ones.
In this case it was impossible for
any stakeholder to be- an innocent
purchasers There was too much pub
licity when the franchise was grant
ed. 1t was too well known. that the
consent Of : the people had not been
asked and that protests were disre-
garded. When public officials defy
popular sentiment and betray the pub
lie interest in order to confer great
financial gain on an individual or
group of individuals. the immortality
of the transaction is evident without
further proof. These innocent pur-

Cincinnati. saiEa ara III " 4f5Nr'.l
IN 1896 when THE C6x.Foraker gang
absolutely controlled the State as
well as the Cincinnati local govern
rnent, a .sefyilee legislature empowered
the Cox puppets in Cincinnati to give
a 50-year franchise to the focal street
railway monopoly. The franchise was
granted accordingly. qo
w There were popular protests both
against the bill In the legislature and
against the franchise before the local
Board, which completed the infamy.
But these were the days of govern

people, and popular protests did not
count. G7if
Now Boss Cox has been driven from
power and Legislative conditions have
improved sufficiently to give the peo-
pie a fighting chance. Consequently,

other wrongs of the past, is now IN

DEcLARs BILLBOARD NUISANCE
Special Commission Says it is Menace
to Public Health.

New York. Oct. AFTER an eight
months study of the billboard proo-
lem in New York, a special commls'
sion has arrived at these conclusions:
That the billboard constitutes a nul-
sance because of its unsightliness
that II causes a further fire hazard IN
many places and also a menace TO
public health on account Of the rub
bish it often hides.
Restriction of the use of the Dill
board is recommended, including pro
posals to tax such advertisements,
to establish a censorship upon de
signs, to authorize health officials
to prohibit large electric signs where
they are found to interfere with sleep
in residential districts and TO author
ize both health and fire officials to
order removal of all signs which are
a menace TO health and safety.
In New York it is estimated there
is total Of 3,S0O,O0O square feet OF
billboard advertising. with an income
TO the advertising companies of more
than $1,OOoOOO a year The report
SAYS that there is SERIOUS doubt
whether billboard advertising is as
profitable to the merchant advertiser
as other forms of advertising"
