Des Moines, Oct. When the state
pharmacy commission gets thru With
the work of cleaning up the dangerous
drug business of the state it will have
demonstrated not only that it is worth
$4,000 a year in cold cash to the state
but that it is worth a great deal more
in the work of protecting the people
from injury and danger.
The latest move is to force reform
in the matter of handling dangerous
drugs thru the agency of the peddlers.
the peddlers get in under Il clause in
the law which eXempts those who sell
proprietary. medicines and domestic
remedies That is also Why the de-
partment stores can handle certain of
these packaged medicines.
But it is also provided in the law, in
brief, that nobody save registered
pharmacist may dispense ANYTHING con-
tanning opiates or intoxicating liquors.
The question as TO whether or not the
peddlers might sell drugs containing
these things was put to the attorney
generals office some years ago. and
Judge Lee, then assistant attorney gen
eral, rendered an opinion to the effect
that peddlers could not sell anything
containing either opiates or intoxicat-
ing liquors. But until now the law has
not been rigidly enforced
Must Submit Labels.
The commission is now sending out
to the makers Of these medicines that
are handled by peddlers 10 require them
to submit labels that go on their pack
ages. AS ali packaged stuff must
state on the label the exact amount OF
any opiate or intoNicant contained
therein, this show what medicines
may or may not he sold by the ped
dlers They viii! he required to stop
selling anything containing the forbid
den stuff.
The husineFssef the peddiers has been
steadily increasing and larger numbers
of them xding about the country
every year. fSssihly to have thn law
strictly enforced Will stop some OF their
profits It ma. also havea good effect
in stopping some Of the trouble from
dangerous drugs.

! Des Moines, Oct. IA meeting Of the
official board or committee Of the
knights of Luther was held in Des
Moines Monday night 1t was the un-
understanding that the purpose was to
that Of condemning Senator ,Cummins
and condemning Governor Clarke.
In regard to the latter it seems that it
had been all framed up by few of
the politicians who have been engin-
eering the political phases Of the thing
to have passed Q resolution or other
expression excoriating the governor for
having put into the public service, by
his appointment. such a large number
OF Catholics. Those who had control
started off by denouncing the governor
in severe terms.-- But report was called
tor from committee that it was said
had investigated. The report was that
the governor had, out Of the scores of
appointments he has made, appointed
just one Catholic to Office and that
was Colonel McConologue, and he was
appointed because he was the unani-
nous choice of his own party for the
place. Thereupon, 1t is declared. the
effortito have action taken against
Clarke was suppressed.
Aim to Put cummins in Hole.
Il 10 stated that an effort is to be
made to put Cummins in a hole" by
having a committee call on him to in
duce him to set aside the republican
state platform and adopt a platform
prepared for him by the knights of
Luther. containing many planks. One
on which special stress will be placed
is that he will support a bill putting
every church institution under govern
ment inspection" That would probably
mean creation OF several thousand Of
fees for supervision and inspection in
this colossal undertaking and 1t is un-
derstood some Of the K. l.. members
fear this will not be popular at a time
when so many thousands of new offices
are being created at Washington. The
matter reached a position so that no
