"Crimp" in Rum Running

The value of the seizure, yesterday
OF an alleged rum-running schooner
off the Massachusetts coast is not only
in the fact that the attempt to land
$4,000 worth Of rum at Salem was
fo,l"d, the cargo seized and a number
OF Smugglers arrested, but also in the
likelihood that this episode will put a
crin,p in the vocation Of rum running
as conducted hereabouts. Nothing is
so certain to deter the original prac-
tice of smuggling as the signal cap
ture of rum-laden boat. There is,
moreover, probability that the testi-
mony of some Of the men taken with
the goods will lead to persons higher
up who may be operating this Illicit
traffic on large scale.
The thorough enforcement of prohi.
bition is an immense if not an i'm
possible task. That portion of the
task which is occasioned by the smug-
cling of liquors over the border and
along the seaboard ought, however, to
be capable of reasonably complete
performance, if sufficient vigilance IS
exercised by the revenue and prohibi-
ton agents. The measure of success
achieved in seizure Of the "Grace and
Ruby will be an encouragement to
further exertions.-Editorial Boston
Traveller.

SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENTS
Bootleg Booze

Inasmuch as the bootlegger is a
law violator of the most skulking,
sinking kind, the man who deals with
him ought to think Of the chances he
is taking. When a man IS handling
rattlesnake he is likely to get bit
ten.
AS the bootlegger is beyond the
pale of responsibility and is an enemy
to society and the cowardly foe of all
that is good and noble, he does not
feel under any obligation to sell to his
patrons whisky that is at least reason
ably safe to drink. Consequently in
many instances he sells under the
name Of whisky, vile poison.
Here is warning sounded by a
Federal prohibition officer.
"The face on the barroom floor
.hOuld be skull with crossbones un-
dcr it these days.
Death turks in white corn liquor.
1t all contains fusel oil, one of the
most deadly poisons. First run moon
shine is rank poison, yet the moon
sinner who makes the stuff-'first
shots it is called by the legitimate
distiller-docsn't trouble himself to
distill it again but sells it as it is for
drinking purposes.

my experience as prohibition en-
forcement officer has been aged. The
bootleggers' motto seems to be full

POKER AND REACTIONS

The department of psychology at
Columbia University is doing some
research work on the effects Of poker
on the human system. The professors
are finding out what is the reaction
when poker player with a trinity
Of queens runs up against a king full.
They are also studying the effect on
the nerve centers when a man fills a
bobtaled flush after the player at his
left has opened a fat jackpot. They
are also classifying the constituent
features of poker face and seeking
to determine whether the possessor
would make a GOOD plumber or
Napoleon Of finance. Science and
education are wonderful when they
journey hand in hand. Some day the
professor will be able to extract the
energy developed in the Saturday
night poker game and utilize it TO
push a wheelbarrow nine miles over
a rough road. What would we do
without our collgges-especially our
psychologist?

Rudolf Kjellen, a Swedish intellec-
tual, has started the learned pens of
Europe scratching by views expressed
in his latest publication, "The. Great
Powers and the World Crisis" From
the World War he draws two deduc-
tions: that the great Anglo Saxon
powers are now the masters of the
universe and that the decadence of
Europe has begun.
These conclusions are not to the lik-
ing of the Germans, Austrians and
Russians; but the frankest among
their historians admit that the facts
are incontestable. They are seeking
way to check the decadence, to put
Continental Europe back in the posi-
tion it occupied before the war; but
they have not been able to agree upon
any formula to work the desired
restoration.

| While these intellectual controver-
sizes will decide nothing, they are IL
Eliminating to Americans because they
point out the responsible position
which we occupy in the reimbursement
of the political dominance of the uni
verse. Since the center of gravity is
shifted to our shoulders it behooves
us to watch our step. We cannot re-
main politically untrammeled while
carrying such an economic burden.
Conditions over which we had no con-
troll have conferred upon us a heavy
responsibility. The utterances of our

quences. If we stumble, the whole

omission and commission the peoples

During the years Immediately fol-

the French and German press. He
said that it would surely lead to an
other war and that the whole of Eu-

the pep more than that of the sword.
He evidently sensed the dangerous
path that the two countries were
treading and is said to have expressed
privately in his declining years a re-
greet that the peace terms eXacted
had been so harsh upon the French.
If way could have been found for
restoring Alsace and Lorraine to
France without sacrificing German
prestige and dignity he would prob
ably have indorsed it; for he recog-
nized that he had permitted his pat

In one of his latest utterances Bis

writer and is not a propaganda. II
says that the nations of Continenta
Europe must look at world condition
as they exist, not as they would Xix
them to be, and that signing for tn
uncontested dominance of the era i'm
mediately prior to the war will no
bring it back
In speaking Of the immediate resul
of the great war he says:
All other results are overshad-
owed by the single, incontestable
fact that the mastery of the uni
verse belongs to the two great
Anglo-Saxon powers, England and
the United States. On the UNI
certain horizon one sees already
the contours of a new dominion
on thesuniverse parallel to that Of
Rome in antiquity after the Punic
wars, under the form of an en-
pire embracing all the seas, but
this time in proportions much
larger. 1t is the positive result
of the World War. The negative
result is the decadence of Ger
many and Of Central Europe-of
all Europe.
For that which one may term
the positive result of the World
War, the increase in power Of the
Anglo-Saxon race, signifies the
displacement of the center Of
gravity from Central Europe to
the ocean. There is no power
greater than that of the ocean.
The maritime power, the traffic
on the water constitutes the pivot
of world dominion; and this sig
nails the decadence of the contin-
ent, that is, of the Europe of for
mer days. The center of gravity
is transferred to America, This
is the supreme meaning of the
! World War. 1t is the philosophy
of history.
1t is but natural that such cOnclus-
ons should not be to the liking of
he savants of the countries from
which dominion, is passing, There are

Sweet Potatoes Sent
To King And Premier

Charleston, S. c., Feb. 11.-South-
ern sweet potatoes, served in one of
the appetizing dishes made famous
by Dixie housewives, will soon be on
the tables Of King George and Premier
Lloyd George of Great Britain, spec
tally prepared packages for them

1000 pounds, forwarded from Charles
ton to Liverpool on the steamship

to England for the purpose of in
Producing this excellent food staple
through the joint efforts of the
Southern Railway System, the Caro-
lima Company, steamship forwarding
agents of this city; and the South

The potatoes were packed in five
pound cartons, each containing a
copy of the attractive booklet recently
published by the Southern Railway
System, showing recipes for preparing
sweet potatoes in the most approved
Southern styles, and other literature
giving information as to the food
value Of the sweet potato and the ex-
tent Of its growth and use in the

Arrangements have been made for

attractive to the families who get
them that an additional market for
Southern sweet potato growers will
be established.
