Jamacia Ginger Is
Latest Jag Course

On account of the fact that a number
OF drug stores in Salem have been sell
ing Jamaica ginger to young men, il
containing about So per cent alcohol
the police officers are contemplating
asking the district attorney to investi
gate the matter with q view of refusing
permits to import alcohol for manufac
turing purposes.
The selling Of alcohol in Jamaica
ginger does not come under the prohi.
bition law but under the pure food act
The alcohol is imported by the manu-
featuring druggist and the Jamaica
ginger, and flavoring extracts that re
quire alcohol, prepared. The police of
ficers have come in contact with some
of the effects of "Jamaiea gingei
iag' and believe that the only way t.
stop it is to have the privilege of i'm
portation refused to those druggists wht
continue the sale to young men.
The officers point out that under thu
new law the state board of pharmacy
has control also and that it has auth
ority to restrict the sale of the 9inge
in the same manner that il can regulat,

SOMEBODY SHOULD HANG
HALIFAX HORROR DEMAND

lister of Marine

A searching inquiry into all the
causes of the disaster of December s.
when the French ammunition steamer
Mont Blanc blew up in the harbor. lay
ing the north end of the city in ruins,
killing 1900 persons, and manning sew
eral thousand others, was promised by
G. c. Ballantyne. Canadian minister OF
marine and fisheries, today. Within a
few hours after his arrival here Min
lister Ballantyne learned that public
opinion was unanimously behind the
call for most thorough investigation.
The Halifax Herald, voicing the pub
lie demand. said in an editorial today:
Somebody ought to hang-perhaps
several people-for their personal re-
sponsibility for the great catastrophe,
for the wiping out of 1900 or 1890
lives. for the manning of hundreds of
others and for the suffering, horror and
loss sustained by the survivors"
The inquiry begun by the admiralty
shortly after the disaster is to be re-
sumed January II. As result OF Its
Investigations, thus far, steps have
been taken to make certain as far as
humanity possible that there will be no
repetition of the disaster, Mr.. Ballan-
tyne said.
