A ForCefuI Prohibition Lecture

\ splendid audience at the Court
House last Monday evening listened
TO the address Of DR., George W,
Young, Of Kentucky who toured
the north part Of the state this week
under the auspices Of the Anu'SNs
loon League The speaker is u vet
cron in the Prohibition cause and
has u thorough grasp Of recent dc.
yclopmcnts ~ well IN fundamental
principles, He gave q review Of the
history Of the cause Of Prohibition
in the United States for the past
twenty years, showing the bitter
struggle with and final triumph
over politicians in both State and
National governments Iayoring the
liquor cause The fact that even the
church and the ministry stood
trembling on the threshold dreadinR
to plunge into the fight because Of
the strength of the enemy wOa optly
set forth, He thinks that by the
time an amendment to the e0nstitu.
ton can be brought to the point Of
ratification by States that twenty.

The Arkansas Legislature.

The prediction that the first week
of the Arkansas legislature would
witness flood of bills was well
borne out Before the House finally
adjourned Saturday, a total of 1873
bills had been introduced, although
the legislature had only been in
working order since Wednesday
morning. This is at a rate of about
80 bills per day. The reading of
new bills became so wearing that an
additional reading clerk had to be
employed. Some of the bills con-
tanned 80 typewriter pages,
Local legislation is a great favor.
ite at this term, This is shown by
the fact, out of the 92 bills in the
House 55 are local bills while all OF
the Senate measures are purely local.
They include all sorts Of local de-
mands, from removing the disabIli.
ties of minor to changing the
court proctces in a chancery dis
trict. Many House members de
clare they will fight to the last ditch
for local bills, and have already
secured Saturday Of each week for
the consideration Of strictly local
bills, More conservative members
insist that local bills should give
way to general measures, owing TO
the 6O-day session limit, but the
localbill advocates are standing
pat, The only general bill passed
during the week was the per diem
bill for the salary of the legislators
and clerks, Several local bills were
passed bv the House, including one
requiring the Iron Mountain to
build a brick depot at RusselyllIe,
This legislature promises to be a
regular abolishcr Already bills
have been introduced to abolish
nearly third of the state depart
ments and commissions, as well as
to abolish state aid to high schools
the insurance acturial bureau and
virtually nullify the provisions Of
the child labor law. Representative
Smith, Of Ashley is author of the bill
70 abolish the State Tax Com
mission, the State Labor Bureau
and the State Highway Commls'
sion. He was one OF the authors OF
the bill creating the tax commission,
but says it is not meeting his expect
tations in revising the revenue
system. His bill would drop about
20 men and women from the state
payroll. 1t will bring on big row
when it comes up for final passage.

The Botanic Garden.

The announcement made in yester-
days Star that a beautiful butterfly
orchid was in bloom at the Botanic
Garden drew a large number of peo-
pie there yesterday to see this in
teresting blossom. For several months
the garden has been open to the
public on Sundays, and great crowds
have taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity to see the rare plants and
trees there growing. Thousands of
them had never before visited this
institution. Now the garden, having
been made known to the public, is
kept constantly in mind as a place
where something new and beautiful
and interesting may at any time be
on exhibition. Supt. Hess has made
the most effective arrangement of the
plants for public display that the re-
stricted space will permit, and the
crowds that have passed through the
gates every Sunday since the open
ing order was issued have fully JUS
tilted his judgment in making this in
novation. The future of the garden
is iii some doubt, as no site has been
definitely selected for it. A feeling
develops, however, that there is no
actual need for its removal from the
present site, notwithstanding the in
trusion OF the Grant Memorial at the
eastern end of the reservation, most
inappropriate site for sculpture OF
this character. No better use could
be made of the eastern portion of the
Mall than as a great horticultural
park. This question should be con-
sidered at the next session of Con-
gress, and some decision reached in
order that work may be begun with
out needless delay in the development
of the garden, whatever the site Sc
lected.

The Band Testimonial.

Saturday afternoon the people OF
Washington attested their apprecia-
ton of the work of the military bands
in the course of the seasons series
of park concerts. by large assem-
blage at the Brightwood Park reser-
voir, where under ideal conditions of
weather an enjoyable program of fes-
tivities was conducted. The members
of the bands cannot fail to have been
gratihed at this manifestation of the
peoples pleasure of their efforts,
while the people themselves must
have been benefited by this gather
ing. 1t is always wholesome for the
members of community to get to-
gether. 1t enables them to become
acquainted, and it develops sense of
partnership in the municipal affairs.
Washington has taken the summer
band concerts perhaps too much for
granted for many years, but now that
it has been demonstrated that an ZAP
probation" testimonial can be eff
feetively given, it is to be expected
that this affair will become an annual
event.

Seven Killed at q Crossing.

Yesterday afternoon a passenger
train struck an automobile at a grade
crossing near Mount Clemens, Mich,
and killed seven of the eight occu-
pants of the machine. There was no
protection whatever from the train,
the only warning of which was a
whistle which some witnesses say was
sounded, The view of the track from
the road was obstructed by a house
and grove of trees. Undoubtedly the
driver of the machine, who was the
only member of the party not killed.
but who was so badly hurt that he
has been unable to talk since the ac-
cident, did not know of the trains
approach, or he would not have ven
tured on the tracks. Of course, he
was blameworthy in that he did not
halt his machine to make sure of con-
ditions upon approaching the tracks.
but his negligence does not condone
the offense committed by both rail-
road and state in permitting the con-
tinuanee Of q condition that is notori-

rivers. The Potomac valley above
Washington is closely settled, and
there are numerous good sized towns
along the rivers course-Point Of
Rocks, Brunswick, Knoxville, Viewer
ton, Harpers Ferry. Shepherdstown,
Williamsport, Hancock, Paw Paw,
Cumberland and others. Creeks such
as Wills creek, Patterson creek,
Evitts, the south branch of the Po-
tomac; Town creek, Great and Little
Cacapon, Conoeocheague, Opequan,
Antietam, Catoctin and hundred
others poured their foul water
into the Potomac. The disease
or the diseases which Washing
ton suffered from are matters
of record. The pollution of the
river and the canal which takes
its water from the river and gives
it back to the river still goes on,
but Washington now filters against
this pollution. Yet Washington and
Alexandria pour their sewage into
the river.
Along the great lakes, the HUDSON,
the Passaic, the Susquehanna and
other rivers there is loud complaint
against sewage pollution, and in some
places sewage is being utilized and
purified, or at least being made
harmless, before being turned into
river.
Years will pass before every city
takes proper care of its sewage, but
that condition must finally come to
pass. The capital of the United
States should not be laggard in
this respect. 1t should be an ex-
ample to other cities. Utilization of
sewage has passed the experimental
stage. Great cities in Europe take
proper care of their sewage and
actually make monetary profit out
of it. Washington makes sanitary
disposal of its garbage, refuse, ashes
and other waste, but the most
noxious and dangerous waste it gets
rid OF in the easiest way by pour
ing it into the river.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-10-25
Disposal of Sewage.

The superintendent of the District
sewer department brings out in his
annual report the question OF utiliz-
ing the sewage OF Washington.
which is now being poured into the
Potomac at the rate of about I2yooo,-
600 gallons year. The main ques-
ton involved is not so much the utili-
cation OF the sewage as the protec-
ton of the Potomac river against
pollution Utilization of the sewage
includes its publication.
The pouring of the sewage of
cities, towns and villages into rivers
is one of the horrors and erudities
of the past which civilization is out
growing. but has not ye, outgrown.
No city should have the right to use
a river or a conveniently located
stream as a sewer, and the time is
coming when the people of today
will be looked upon as having been
barbarians for making such hideous
use of the warehouses;
For years. the Potomac, out of
which Washington drew its drinking
water. was fouled by the sewage Of
cities and large towns along the up
per Potomac, the Shenandoah, the
Monocacy and along the almost in
numerahle creeks flowing into those

ously dangerous. With the increas-
ing use of motor cars every grade
crossing is constant menace to life,
and only through effectuai barring of
access to the tracks when trains are
approaching can the highways of this
country be made safe. In this re-
spect the United States is far behind
England, where the permanent way
of the railroads is always rendered
secure from trespass and all road
crossings are either beneath or over
the tracks. Until such a system is
adopted here throughout the country
the slaughter at crossings will con-
tinue and the already shocking total
of sacrifices at these points will
mount to disastrous toll.
