SOAP BUBBLES IN
THE WAKE OF
PROHIBITION
Travelling Man Gets Fill of cuticura
Soap and Bids City Farewell.


Prescott, Jan. 20.-A certain travel
ing man who makes Prescott regular
ly and is among the most jov1al, hale,
hearty and well met knights of the
grip who passes this way, had his first
experience with Arizona prohibition
one night last week, and it was one
which he will not soon forget.
By some means or other he secur-
ed two bottles of beer, and wishing
to keep them for enjoyment after his
days work was over, when he ex-
company with himself and very
good friend, to the surprise and de-
light of his friend, he took the bot
ties nicely wrapped in paper and
asked permission of business house
in Prescott, where he sells goods, to
deposit the precious grip and contents
in a clothes closet until he might call
for it in the evening when he was
en- route to the home of his friend.
All was well and good; with a
light heart and trebled smiles he pro-
|ceeded to wind up day Of hard but
successful business. AS the shades
of night drew their mantles about
this drought-ridden municipality, he
called at the business place to secure
the grip containing the innocent
package which contained two
quart stream of "outlawism,' his
eyes beaming in anticipation of the
spend in this church going town.
During the day, however, some mis-
ehievous hands had gotten busy
for in the wake of prohibition more
or less mischief is bound to trail
along These busy hands had opened
the grip, taken the fine plump live
ones" therefrom and removed their
contents, substituting therefor some
of Granite Springs best, mixed with a
generous quantity of Cuticura soap,
which makes a suds that lasts and
duced by malt or hops. The corks
were neatly replaced in the bottles,
which, in turn, were wrapped uR in
the identical paper which the drum
mer had placed about them when he
prepared the repast for the nights
enjoyment.
And the next morning he never
said a word; in fact he did not show
up at the aforesaid business house at
all, but sent in his card containing
his inscription:
I've been in Kansas and Maine;
I'VE travelled this wild world DER;
I've drank red ink and rain,
But never tasted soap bubbles before,
Fair Prescott, goodbye
(This is said with a sigh
But I'll never come back heah no
noah"

and depriving married men of the
right to earn a living, is strikingly
explained in letter from L. L. Es-

was read before the senate and be-
came a part of the record.
81 wish to call your attention to the
'workmen's compulsory compensa-
tion act now in force in this state"
wrote Mr.. Erskin. I meet every day
men who have been blacklisted by
this, law. They represent the most
responsible class of workers and cit
liens. They have reached that age
of discretion which takes precedence
over passion and impulses of youth
in industrial strife. Most of them,
like myself, have reared families and

Heretofore it was the practice of
the companies. to retain the. mar

there was no one dependent go in
times of industrial depression, but
since the operation of this law this
has been reversed, and the man
whose sole interest in the communi-
ty is his bread and butter. and
whose property consists of a grip.
holds his position to the exclusion OF
the man of family and the taxpayer.
'The law places a great risk upon
the home builder, the small contrac-
tor. and the operator of small mining
properties. and the leaser. No man
of small means can afford to employ
labor and take the chance of acci-
dent.
The whole community benefits by
the operation of our industries and

the people had made the compensa-

WHO PAYS THE BILL?
Resists Arrest; Shot by Marshal.

Waubay, Aug. 1S.-There is a hot
argument here over who Is to pay
bills amounting to about 500 for
surgical and hospital care for a man
named Walker who was shot by the
marshal in an attempt to arrest him
for being a participant in a stabbing
ARRAY over a bottle OF whisky.
The county commissioners refuse
the pleasure on the claim that If
Waubay insists on maintaining sa-
looms. 1t is not the county's business
to stand the expense. The city coun-
ell had a bitter argument yer the
bin at its last meeting and does not
like to foot the bill. and the marshal
fatty refuses to do so.
In the meantime. Walker has quiet
ly slipped out of the hospital and dis
appeared. and it is not thought likely
that he will return to pay the bill.
The marshal threatens to resign, and
no one seems to want his job.

THOUSANDS TRAPPED By
NEW NARCOTIC DRUG ACT.


"Some evidence OF the effort being
made by the government to enforce the
Harrison narcotic drug act is shown
by the fact that the number of physi-
clans and druggists so far arrested for
alleged violations OF Its provisions has
reached into the thousands" declared
Or. ID. X. Rhees Of the anti-narcotic
bureau OF the treasury department.
I'VE are ~contending with two great
problems I'm enforcing the law" the
doctor continued. zone is the physi-
clan, who viii write a prescription
when there Is no necessity for his SO
doing. and the other Is the druggist
who sells without the proper prescrip-
ton. Most of the arrests have been
from these two classes OF violators OF
the law. though. OF course. some ped
dlers OF the drug have been appre-
hended.
Under the present conditions. how
from some urc w which we keep
a watch. so that Is a phase OF the work
which a finally be checked up, though
not, of course. Immediately In all cases.
One OF the principal troubles now Is
that prior to March 1. when the law
went into effect, a number OF druggists
stocked up with morphine sulphate, CO
caine and other forbidden drugs and
then failed to enter them all on their
inventory. In such cases. unless we
can get the goods on Them they may
dispose Of large quantities Of the drugs
at fabulous profits through selling to
persons who have no prescriptions. and
perhaps even to peddlers.
I'VE are working the druggists
against the physicians In the hope OF
checking up those who do not seek to
comply with the spirit OF the law. The
druggist can tell. by the size Of the
doses. whether the purchase is legiti-
mate. II the drug Is for an addict the
doses should be gradually reduced. On
the other hand. for an incurable. to
whom the drug Is given merely to re-
heve pain. the doses should show a
mild rate OF increase, as naturally to
assuage the same pain the amount OF
narcotic must be constantly increased.
Our inspectors. OF course. could de-
tect the filing Of prescriptions at diff
ferent drug stores on inspecting the
narcotic prescription files Of every
store and would ut once look into any
suspicious case"
