bureau of internal revenue in en-
forcing the prohibition enforcement
law.
Any flouting of the law, Mr.. Ro-
per declared, would bring into dis
repute the American form of govern
ment.
While the bureau is made the
agency directing the enforcement Of
the measure, with the Department
of Justice conducting prosecution
ing evidence obtained by the bu-
reau's men, responsibility is not con-
fined to federal officers, the COM
missioner said. The state, county
and municipal officials are expected
to do full share in stopping and
furnishing violations and the sue
cessful administration of the law,
Mr.. Roper said, will be measured
largely by the manner in which these
officials meet their requirements.
Up to Local Officers.
Local officers being expected to
take the initiative in enforcing the
law in their territory, any failure or
dereiiction to assume their full re-
sponsibility will be brought to the
attention of the law-abiding citizens
of the community by officials of the
bureau. ...-.
Mr.. Roper's plans contemplate the
organization of prohibition en-
forcement staff which will be de-
voted entirely to that work and COM
pletely ASSOCIATED from the tax COL
lection activities of the bureau.
There will be deputy commission
er in Washington in charge of the
prohibition section and deputy col
lectors in each district with an eff
,ficent force of men under them.
Pending the organization of this
force employees qualified for the
work who can be spared from the
tax work of the bureau have been
directed to cooperate to the fullest
extent with the public and local Of
ficers.
Asked to Cooperate.
To prevent delay, collectors and
agents have been instructed to con-
fer with United States district at
torneys with regard to cooperation
in obtaining and presenting evil
dence.
THE national prohibition act is
now the law of the land" said Com
missioner Roper. 1T makes the bu-
reau of internal revenue the direct
ing agency in the enforcement of
both wartime prohibition and pro-
hibition under the constitutional
amendment. The secretary and the
commissioner of internal revenue
urgently expressed to both commit
tees of congress the hope that this
important responsibility would not
be imposed on the Treasury depart
ment, burdened as it is with fiscal
and revenue matters. Congress de-
creed otherwise and the department
purposes to respond in the fullest
degree to the duty placed upon,it.
Not to enforce prohibition thor
oughly and effectively would reflect
upon our form of government, and
would bring into disrepute the rep
utation of the American people as
law-abiding citizens. No law can
be effectively enforced except with
the assistance and cooperation of
the law-abiding element. We have
accordingly put into operation the
necessary organization to cooperate
with the public in the rigid enforce
ment of the prohibition law, and as
chief enforcement officer I appeal
to every law-abiding citizen to give
me his or her support.

ANNEXATIONISTS
IN FIUME WIN
OUT IN ELECTION
No Party Other Than "Unione
Nazionale" in Field and
None Other Allowed.

Fiume, Oct. 28.-The result of the
elections in Fiume yesterday may
easily be foreshadowed as vote for
the continuation of the National
Council" controlled by the Italian
annexationists. Only one ticket,
that of the "Unione Nazionale," or
annexationist party, was in the field,
with some 40 candidates for the ma
tional council. Those opposed were
unable to conduct campaign since
the manifesto of D'Annunzio de-
clared Fiume in a state of war.
The polls were guarded by Italian
gendarmes and soldiers, and there
was an extraordinary display of
military power which served to, pre-
vent any disorders.
Girls Vote Gleefully.
Practically every military convey
ance was pressed into service to get
out the vote, including girls and
women, who went to the polls with
shouts of joy at the novel expert
ence. Walls and streets were
placarded with slogans, appealing to
all citizens to vote as patriotic
duty and declaring that anyone not
attending the polls was a traitor and
an enemy to an Italian Fiume.
The town is now one great mill
tary stronghold. Everything, in
Guiding pocketbooks and baggage,
is most vigorously examined upon
entrance.
Two American newspapermen
were arrested and were rugby
handled by gendarmes, who searched
all their belongings but set them at
liberty later. The arrests were
made, it was stated, on information
of one Henry Furst, who claims to
be an American, with a home in
New York, and who handles DAN
nunzio's foreign propaganda. =.
1T is a terrible situation now"
said a neutral to the correspondent
CT the Associated Press. whoever
does not shout 'hurrah for DAN
nunziop is watched. Nothing is i'm
possible in Fiume today, which is
ruled by 5000 bayonets. They
speak OF eleCtlOHS-yeS, eleetiohs az
the point of a revolver. Are you
for Italy?' If not, off with you"
Majority for Annexation.
\ Paris, Oct. 28.-Elections to the
new communal council for Fiume
Sunday resulted in an overwhelming
victory for the annexationists, &C
cording to Fiume dispatch to the
Idea Nazionale of Rome, retrans-
mitted to Paris. More than 5000 of
the 7,l5G registered electors who
went to the polls voted the straight
annexationist ticket. The total reg
istration was 1881.
Efforts of France and England
again are being brought into play
to bring about a solution of the
Italo-American difficulties over the
settlement of the Fiume problem,
according to the Liberte today.
The paper reports that the Amer
lean opposition to the modified Ital-
ian proposals is unchanged and that
the response of Secretary of State
Lansing is in the negative.

gravely and smiled no more than
George did. Nor did she accompany
Eugene to the Majors for dinner the
following Sunday evening, though
both were bidden to attend that feast,
which was already reduced in num-
bers and gayety by the absence Of
George Anderson. Eugene explained
to his host that Lucy had gone away
to visit school friend.
The information, delivered in the
library, just before old Sans appear
ance to announce dinner, set Miss
Minafer in quite a futter. "Why,
George!" she said, turning to her
nephew, "How does it happen you
didn't tell us?" And with both hands
opening, as if to express her innocence
Of some conspiracy, she exclaimed to
the others: "He's never said one word
to us about Lucy's planning to 60

gested. Didn't know but he might
break down and cry If he tried to
speak Of it!" he clapped his grandson
on the shoulder, inquiring jocularly {:
''That it, Georgie?"
-Georgie made no reply, but he was
red enough to justify the Majors de-
veloping a chuckle into laughter
though Miss Fanny, observing her
nephew keenly, got an impression that
his fiery blush was in truth more fiery
than tender.
After the arrival Of coffee the Ma
jor was rallying Eugene upon some
rival automobile shops lately built in
suburb, and already promising to
flourish.
II suppose they'll either drive you
out of the business" said the old gen.
tleman, "or else the two of you'll drive
all the rest of us off the streets"
IF we do We'll even things up by
making the streets five or ten times
as long as they are now," Eugene re-
turned.
"How do you propose to do that?'

there, undeniably such a figure, with
jamie and Mary Sharon threatening to
burst at any moment, If laughter were
longer denied them, Lucy sat looking
at him with her eyebrows delicately
lifted In casual, polite inquiry. Her
own complete composure was what
most CALLED him.
Nothing Of the slightest impor-
tance" he managed to say. II was
just leaving. Good-afternoon! And
with long strides he reached the door
and hasteneu through the hall; but
before he closed the door he heard
from JAMIE and Mary Sharon the OUT
burst of wild, irrepressible emotio1
which his performance had inspired.
He drove home in a tumultuoue
mood, Il almost ran down two ladies
who were engaged in absorbing con.
versation at crossing. They were
his Aunt Fanny and Mrs. Johnson;
jerk of the reins at the last instant
saved them by a few inches; but their
conversation was 80 interesting that
they were unaware Of their dagger,
and did not notice the runabout, nor
how close it came to them.
He drove into the Majors stable too
fast, the sagacious Pendennis saving
himself from going through partition
by swerve which splintered shaft
of the runabout and almost threw tho
driver to the floor. George swore, and
then swore again at the fat old darkey.
Tom, for giggling Mt his swearing.
He strobe from the stable, crossed
the Majors back yard, then passed
behind the new houses, on his way
home. These structures were now ap.
proaching completion but still In Q
state of rawness hideous to George
though. for that matter, they were
| never to be anything except hideous
to him.
In this temper he emerged from be-
hind the house nearest his own and.
glancing toward the street, saw his
mother standing with Eugene Morgan
upon the cement path thNt led to tho
front gate. She was bareheaded and
Eugene held his hat and stick in his
hand; evidently he had been calling
upon her, and she had come from the
house with him. continuing their con-
versatlon and delaying their parting.
George stared at them. A hot dis
like struck him at the sight Of Eu-
gene; and a vague revulsion, like q

came over him as he looked at his
mother; her manner was eloquent OF
SO much thought about her companion
and of such reliance upon him.
The two began to walk on toward
the gate, where they stopped, turning
to face each other. and Isabel's glance,
passing Eugene, fell upon George. In
stantly she smiled and waved her
hand to him, while Eugene turned and
nodded; but George. standing as in
some rigid trance, and staring straight
at them, gave these signals Of greeting

all his little dinners were pleasant,
and that this one was no exception.
George did not move, and Fanny,
following the other two, came round
the table and paused close beside his
chair; but George remained posed in
great imperturbability, cigar between
teeth. eyes upon ceiling, and paid no
attention to her. Fanny waited until
the sound of Isabel's and the Majors
voices became inaudible in the hall.
Then she said quickly, and in a low
voice so eager that it was unsteady:
"George, you've struck just the
treatment to adopt; you're doing the
right thing!"

others with a faint rustling of her
