END OF THE OPIUM
TRADE

BY agreement and cooperation be-
tween China and Great Britain, a
gradual reduction of production and
number of years ago, and under
the terms of the treaty, it is 10 per
cent less each year. This gives the
opportunity for the generation that
has the habit to die off before it
becomes impossible to secure it at
TALL.
The opium trade has been a very
profitable one in a financial way, but
has piled up wrongs mountain high,
curse upon the races that used it.
And SO good and great character
as Queen Victoria was on the throne
of England while the, opium trade
developed and went to its climax.
And other things developed in the
period, that people are putting under
the ban now. Think of the army
canteen in our own country under
such presidents as Garfield and Nc
Kinley; and the army redlight under
Queen Victoria, so glazing that in the
Orient, wherever 1t was practical,
each army or barracks had its harem
and its population was known as
"The Queens Women" They were
the property of the empire-the
property of the queen, But perhaps
the queen never knew it. Certainly
she would be grieved If she knew
that such conditions existed, but the
empire was large concern and not
operated by any one person.
The world of today with all its
wars and cruelty and hatred and pas
sions. might cool down in a 12-month
and be operating in degree of good
will, and temperance and morality
such as we never have known. At
least it does no harm to hope for
such things and to further them as
much as we can.

Not Too Late Vet

If the city council shall arrive at
decision and act upon it, they
might call an election to settle the
policy as to the water question, and
then an election could follow to elect
officials to carry out the policy that
had been adopted.

minor matters. The people of the
town had so long neglected to exer-
else their rights of home govern
ment, that they had lost the power
to discern between public interest
and personal satisfaction. They went
to the polls and voted personalities,
and they have had government OF
the same breadth and depth.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1917-03-09

There are some substantial reasons
why the city council should hold two
elections this spring; one to deter
mine what to do about the water
system, and one to elect officials to
carry it into effect.
A good many thoughtful persons
with an eye to economy will ask
why not have both elections at the
same time. The reason as we see
them are as follows:
