DOPE" LAW VIOLATIONS

.THE discovery by the police that
the Harrison dope" law is being
violated in Harrisburg should
not be considered in the light of a
failure of the law. Rather it is a
tribute to the excellency and need of
the new act 1t is certainly much
better to have placed such a restric-
lion on the sale of forming drugs
that they can be obtained only with
great difficulty and in limited quanti-
ties, than that they should be on open
sale for the purchase of all corners.
The fact that only an occasional
violation OF the act comes to light
shows how strictly it is being enforced
and is convincing denial of the old
assertion that prohibition does not
prohibit"

thousand dollars for such a building
if the city will provide the site. The

Lake Geneva Water.

For 20 years French engineers have
had in mind plans for bringing to
Paris the inexhaustible water Of the
lake Of Geneva, called also Lake Lee
man, on the frontier of France and
Switzerland. This project, which made
considerable noise before the war, has
since been rarely mentioned, and the
reason therefor is said to be due to
the discovery that the blue waters of
the lake, so beautiful to look upon,
nre infested by worms which the
Parisians. now that they have been
Instructed, will not willingly tolerate.

many leagues on the east and the tun-

west, also in contemplation, 1t appears
that French enterprise is not wholly
occupied by the war.

LAWS HEAVY HAND
BROUGHT ABOUT DOWNFALL or
MAORI ''pRoPHET.s
Slave Whs Had Made hls Way - .
Throne, and Whe Claimed Divine
Power, Now . prisener In
New Zealand Jail.

sRua, Maori prophet" polygamist
'Maori emperor"-although unjustifi-
ably, 1t appears-has been convicted
by jury at Auckland, New Zealand
upon certain counts, after a trial OF
extraordinary length. Rua, his pre-
tensions to divine powers, his temple
and stronghold in theswild and almost
inaccessible "King country" In north
ern New Zealand, his fight with po-
licemen several months ago, in which
several men were killed or wounded
his previous defiance of authority
all this constitutes one Of the most
interesting chapters In the history of
New Zealand.
Rua first attracted attention about
ten years ago. He set himself up as
q sort Of Messiah in the Urewera dis
trict, which is near the Bay of
Plenty, on the north island Of the do.
minion. This region, sometimes called
the king country" from old Maori
usage, is sort of government reserva.
ton. It is inhabited by the most prim.
tive Of the aboriginals Of New Zea.
land.
Rua was slave born, but he broke
Maori tradition by assuming the pre-
negatives of a chief, and in addition
he mixed with native superstition a
smattering of Christian belief. He
was glib and cunning, and before long
he had strong hold upon the minds
Of the untutored members of his race.
At MaungapOhatu, native hamlet
in the center of the king country"
he posed as savior, and he was at
tended by a bodyguard. Here, al
though by birth slave, and, there
fore, entitled to but one wife, he took
unto himself spouses variously esti-
mated at from nine to fourteen, and
he had built circular temple of con-
siderable ingenuity of design and con-
struction, for the Maoris are good ar
chitects. In cupola of this structure
he professed to communicate with the
Almighty, and below him customarily
sat dozen Maoris, called after the
twelve apostles.
1t was "sly grog" selling or moon
shining which got the prophet" into
trouble. To make liquor on ones
premises without permission and then
sell it to natives is against the law,
and when Rua was convicted of hav-
ing done this he had to serve a jail
sentence. Several indictments upon
the same score were hanging over his
head when he was released and re-
turned to Maungapohatu, but upon
his being summoned to answer to
them he defied the authorities.
Finally strong force Of police was
sent to Maungapohatu. Rua and his
henchmen put up a desperate fight.
Two Maoris were killed, and a mum.
Der were wounded in the rife fire, and
four policemen were wounded. Rua,
after resistance with teeth, fists and
feet, was captured.
Rua's trial occupied AZ days. He
was convicted Of resisting the police,
but was acquitted Of having used Sc
ditious language. On two other counts
the jury disagreed.
