CONDEMNS
GIFTS OF
WEALTHY

Chicago. June 16. - "Gifts of ILL
gotten wealth should be cast back in
to the teeth of the giver until he give
evidence of repentance and restitu-
tion," declared Edward A. Ross, pro-
lessor at the University Of Wisconsin,
here in ar address to the General
Federation of Women's clubs.
Such gifts cost socially more than
they are worth" he said. 1.-THE real
fight to uplift humanity centers around
the conditions and pay of labor. This
is a terrible shock to the whole system
of reliance on private philanthropy"
Ross asserted private benevolence
should be restricted to experimental
work. States dependents, he said,
should be cared for by the state.
Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson,
daughter Of the president, arrived.
She is on the program to lead in the
singing at the convention this after
noon and will speak briefly tomorrow
night on the Greatest Service the
General Federation Can Render the
Young Women of America.

RIGHT OF WAY Is
BEING SECURED

Beach, NJ. D., June 16.-Word has
been received from Geo. T. slade of
the Northern Pacific that what is ex-
pected in the way of a right-of-way
for the south branch out Of Beach
through the Golden Valley is fifty feet
on each side of the survey line, which,
extending twenty-five miles, would
make a total Of 400 acres to be secured
for the railway company, together
with the station sites. The committee
appointed by the Beach Commercial
club and the Burkey and Carlyle meet
ings have been busy this week arrang-
ing for meetings in various parts of
the Golden Valley, through which the
proposed road is to operate, for the
purpose Of seeing what the farmers
along the line are will to do for the
right-of-way.
Atty. John Keohane has been
chosen as legal advisor to the commit
tee and contract forms have been
drawn up preparatory to the actual
work of securing the right-of-way and,
as soon as a little over half of 1t has
been obtained, the Northern Pacific
will commence the work Of grading.
The surveyors on Wednesday began
work on the west survey at a point
about six miles south of Beach, and
it now looks as though they were ar
ranging the final survey so that it will
strike the. main line about a mile
from the big curve west of this city.
The road will probably follow the
state line a short distance then circle
toward Burkey and, passing within a
mile and a half of Carlyle, will then
go close to Ollie. The finishing touch
es are at present being made to the
survey and within another day or two
the definite line for the proposed road
will be ready to be given out, a little
difficulty in getting the surveys as
near to Burkey and the other small

CONGRESS-
TO PUSH
ITS WORK

Washington. June 16.-The presi-
dent is hopeful that the administra-
ton trust legislation program will be
passed so congress may adjourn by
the end of July. According to Off
Gals close to Wilson he believes there
is no prospect Of any organized oppo-
sition to the trust legislation by the
republicans in the senate and also that
a ~filibuster is improbable. The presi-
lent expects the railroad securities
and the omnibus antitrust bill will be
reported out Of the committee within
the next two weeks.
The presidents attitude against ad-
journment without enacting bills had
an immediate effect at the capital.
The leaders began hurrying work on
the appropriation bills and tuning t&A
legislative machinery all along the
line. Most of the senators are eager
for a midsummer adjournment.

Morocco, the government of the pro-
tectorate has deemed it necessary, fol-
lowing the example of the Ivory Coast,

just been issued which formally pro-
hibits the Importation, manufacture,
circulation. sale or detention with a
view to selling Of absinthe and similar
products in the French portion of the
country. Absinthe and similar pro-
ducts may not be made or sold ex-
cept by pharmacists, under the CLASH
fication of medicinal products. Every
infraction of this decree is to be pun
ished by a fine of from 300 to 5000
francs ESQ to 5000. For, a repeated
o~ffense, the penalty is Imprisonment
for from three months to three years.
Moreover, any public house in which
the sale of absinthe and similar al
coholics is permitted will be closed for
six months, aside from the penalty i'm
posed on the proprietor. In case the
offense is repeated. the establishment
will be closed permanently.
