Though the story has not yet been
confirmed from any source, mention
must be made of the report from Ber-
lin by way of Paris that the Dutch
government has asked the members
of the former kaiser's family to leave
Holland. The government is said to
have come into possession of docu-
ments proving that the Hohenzollerns
were preparing for a coup d'etat for
their restoration. The former crown
prince. II was discovered, was to pass
into Germany and enter Berlin at the
head of troops that have remained
faithful to the Hohenzollern dynasty.
The Berlin correspondent of the Lon

party has been formed and plans to

Gov. Adams Comments
On Obedience to Law

Pueblo Star-Journal:-
During his speech at the semi-cen-
tennial exercises at Colorado Springs
recently, former Governor Alva Ad-
ans made some interesting observa-
tions on respect for the law. Near
the conclusion Of his address he said:
"The founders Of Colorado Springs
had the wisdom, courage and virtue
to bar the saloon. They made Il
dry with Colorado City three miles
away. Colorado Springs and Greeley
have been saloonless. II is more than
a coincidence that these two temper
ance towns during every panic and
business reverse that have touched
Colorado have never known depres-
sion, dullness or reverses. In this fact
may be found a hint for the alleged
respectable elements of our people
who are using every means, fair or
foul, TO defeat the law and embarras
and upset the declared intention Of
the nation. Speed the day when obed-
ienc to law will be recognized as the
first duty Of q patriotic citizn and the
violation Of the prohibition enactment
as much Of crime as stealing sheep
or counterfeitipg."
The keynote to the whole present
prohibition question is found in Gov
ernor Adams' reference to obedience,
to law. Probably no law ever enact
ed in this country has been SO flag
rantly disregarded as the prohibition
measure. Respectful citizens and
bootleggers are in accord in violation
Of the law. Legally, the man who
manufactures home brew for his own
consumption is no better than the
bootlegger who makes il for public
sale. Many successful home brewerA
seem to take . delight in detailing
their skill in concocting liquids with
. kick in them, but those persons only
proclaim their own criminal acts.
Somehow they seem proud Of their

disobedience Of law.

dlSODe0lence OF law.
The prohibition amendment was in.
tended for all the people, but un-
fortunately it is not taken seriously
by many who ought to be engaged
in strictly enforcing it. II is this
disobedience to law that makes it %
difficult to bring about proper en-.
forccment. Regardless Of what one,
private opinion may be regarding any
law, it is the duty Of each citizen u
obey that law. This is difficult, oi
course when the individual imagines
that his personal liberty is interfer
ed with by some law. He has no diff
ficulty in convincing himself that hi
is committing no offense in breaking
the law. 1t Is this attitude Of mind
that delays coming Of "the day when
obedience TO law will be recognized q;
the first duty Of patriotic citizen
and the violation Of the prohibition en-.
actment as much Of q crime as steal
ing sheep or counterfeiting."
