Laws to Re Enforced

Mr.. Davidson states that it Is a
direct violation Of the city building
code to erect a building Of any kind
on wooden blocks, brick or concrete
piers. All buildings must have a
solid brick or concrete foundation. All
flues in any building shall not have
wooden supports Of any kind. Sup
ports shall be incombustible and, shal
rest upon the ground or founda-
ton.
This is a part Of the building code
that has been overlooked by the build
ing inspector or rather has not been
enforced and the code is being vio-
lated most every day. Hereafter Mr'
Davidson states buildings must be
built on solid foundations and all flues
must be built from the ground up.

New York.-The national associa-

abolish its labor commission asserting
that it had virtually completed its
work and that its further maintenance
was a constant invitation to seek a
uniform settlement of labor matters
which ought TO be settled between
each railroad and its employees.

PAID DEAR FOR CIVILIZATION
Writer Asserts White Races Made Bad
Bargain in Exchanging Reality
for the Artificial.

When the later v0yagers OF Europe
came to the uncharted spaces of these
warm South Pacific seas they found in
the Polynesian group a culture which
was beyond the understanding of most
of them, and which only a few line
souls glimpsed as an astounding rev.
citation of the natural development Of
humanity, and, by contrast. of the de-
pravity of civilization.
They found health and high spirits
Astounding 10 a degree utterly strange
to thenL the hardest and most adyen-
turous of their white kind Murder,
mutiny, shipwreck, and desertion
wrote red their reactions to the en-
trancing liberty of thought and ae-
ton they found here, and the contrast
with their rude, ugly restricted lives
In Europe, America, or on their ships.
If you would be ashamed Of what
the pursuit of profits and proselytism,
hand in hand, has done, read the re-
ports of explorer, missionary, captain
and trader in these waters, and view
the remnant, after beauty and honesty
had been replaced by modernity and
hypocrisy.
1t was in clothing that the first in
sidious approach was made.
In this valley where | am now the
only foreigner, with my word and ex-
ample. life resumes for time at least
much of The old Marquesan way and
appearance. The mission church, the
first Christian edifce within a thou
sand miles of here, is fast rejoining
the wilderness. Its walls are falling
in decay. and its garden is but a jun
gle. The schoolmaster who taught
vaitahu's children to say, la France
est lie plus bonnie pays du monde" is
gone
Existence is become ALMOST as de-
void of invention and Invested Of arti-
f~iciality as before the white mar came.
| am able to rebuild in nay misc the
structure of Marquesan customs and
to view 10 Imagination the attractive
aspect Of Vaitahu and its idyllic days
of old. We lave brought out Of the
hats the native garments of tapa, and
we live as much as possible a perspec-
tive of the past.
The Tahitians thought the whites
who first arrived were gods, and when
they found they were men, with their
same passions, they thought they were
i'll. That is the first impression one
who lives long with Polyneslans has
when he meets a group Of whites.
They look pale, sharp-faced and wor-
ried. We pay dear for factories and
wheeled vehicies.-Frederick O'Brien

that could well be developed TO great

From the daily prints we notice
that the first of a colony of Mennon-
ties have arrived 10 Harrison Coun-
ty from Pennsylvania and that one
of their number stated that they
we're just ike other folks. That
they were conscientious directors to
war but were not the only people
that we're so, but that they rendered
good service during the European
war in performing other duties on
the front necessary to the army than
the actual fighting. We noticed just
a few days prior to this where reso-
buttons had been adopted in l1arri-
son County endorsing the movement
of the Meunonites settling 10 that
county which resolutions stated that
they would be welcomed provided
they obeyed the laws of the state.
AS we understand it there is no
trouble with their sect as TO law
obeyance except at the point OF mil
Itary service which they are taught
is unchristian. So after all the Men
nonites MY not prove to be the un-
oesirables that has been represented
they would be in Mississippi as they
have their good points in time of
war as well as in time OF peace and
their reputation for o~rdil;ness, thrift
mess commends them generally
speaking as coed citizens. The
