The Next Step Any consideration of the results of the election last Friday must show that, in most important matters, they were negative in result. The good sense of North Dakota's citizens saved the state from further domination by a self-seeking politi- cal regime which had set out to Tam- manyize the commonwealth. They rejected the idea of one-man control of all state enterprises, quite obvi- ously because they feared the char- acter of the man who sought to en- dow himself with these wide powers. To do this they voted “no.” The two constitutional amendments which won approval mean little, on the face of them, to the average citi- zen. The law affecting county of- fices and providing for a consolida- tion of duties in the smaller districts, applies to a problem of organization. It may or may not affect the workings of the offices in such a manner as to bring the change home to the average citizen, favorably or otherwise. The amendment providing « change in the legislative process of handling bills directly affects only the legislature, although the result may be seen later in legislation even more imperfect than that which we slready have had. Depending upon the spirit in which the legislature makes use of its new authority it may or may not prove to be a bene- fit. But to the average individual, interested more in results than in the processes by which they are attained, it is not a matter of real importance “Phis, thew, leaves only the initiated beer and Sunday’ moving picture measures as affirmative conclusions, and the latter still is in doubt. ‘The beer bill is of real importance. It will put under some sort of re- straint a traffic which now is carried on openly in violation of the law. It provides a beginning on the pathway from prohibition, but it is only a fal- tering step. As already has been pointed out, the bill enacted by the electorate is an imperfect one. It permits of abuses which were strongly con- demned in the days before prohibi- tion. As never before it links the liquor traffic with politics. Its his- tory shows that such state control as may be exercised will be directed toward political ends. Because of its defects, its operation must be closely watched and every effort made by right-thinking citi- zens to see that it is fairly and hon- estly administered. The fact that the provisions permitting abuses were put there at the insistence of those who will administer the act makes this all the more necessary. At the same time, preparations should be made now to change this law when the legislature meets again and op- A man walking on the sidewalk in this| Would hardly try to elbow his fellow Pedestfian aside. The immediate ef- fect might be too unpleasant. Where personal contact is concerned there would be nothing to prevent the of- fended party from kicking his boor- ish fellow on the shins or walloping him on the jaw. When one is behind the wheel of an automobile, however, there is no compulsion to courtesy other than that which comes from within. The thoughtless person has full opportu- nity to get all the bad effects from this practice. The man who is de- liberately boorish has nothing to check this tendency. The result is drivers who dart in and out of traffic, fight for the right- of-way and who act, on all occasions, like they were going to a fire. It is impossible to estimate the number of accidegts for which such persons are responsible, usually at great cost to themselves. It seems safe to say, however, that it is a large number. Chinese Preeminence A little cable dispatch from China the other day emphasizes, as few news items ever do, the incredible age of the civilization of that myste- rious land. It recorded the fact that @ lady in PReiping can trace her an- cestry directly back to old Confucius himself—and that she is his 77th lineal descendant. Since Confucius was born in 551 B. C., the family is now a iittle bit less than 2,500 years old; and in the face of a record like that—it isn't altogether uncommon, either, in China—the most pretentious of west- ern genealogies must look utterly in- significant. To a person who can trace his family tree that far back, an Amer- ican’s pride in a Mayflower ancestor must look rather odd. And even the proudest members of European no- bility, who claim direct descent from Crusaders and what-not, must be, in the eyes of a cultured Chinese, mere upstarts, save up on their postage in anticipa- tion of the next campaign.

(Duluth Herald) Considering that the repeal of the eighteenth amendment is certain, the people of Minnesota are turning their attention to questions of state regu- lation. Thirty-one states have voted for repeal and when five more states have voted with them, the one-sided contest will be over. To the present, not even one state has favored the retention of federal prohibition. After repeal, the government at Washing- ton will have no control of the liquor traffic except to subject it to excise taxation. Tt is estimated that about 70 per cent of those voting on this question portunity offers. The revisions which must be made are obvious to anyone who takes the trouble to study this enactment. As a result of this action by the people, city commissions and councils throughout the state will be called voted for repeal. There were many Stay-at-homes. This is usually the case except at general elections. If the recent vote had been much larger, there would have been no material change in the relative showing of the opposing groups. No one doubts the good intentions of the rank and file of the dry army. upon to pass ordinances licensing and regulating this traffic. It is in these municipal laws that the people have a fine chance to e: their will on this important subject. It is one de- serving the best thought of city com- missioners and of citizens generally.

A trace of ar- senic is constantly excreted thru the kidneys. Probably a minute quantity of arsenic in one form or another is essential in human nutrition. It re- sembles fleas on a dog, as Josh Bill- ings regarded that problem. But when a little too much arsenic gets into the system it causes bizarre effects. Here are some of the manifestations of Neuritis (not the mere vague ache that so many wiseacres like to call neuritis, but the real thing), recurring or intractable chronic eczema or simi- lar skin trouble, red injected eyelid linings and puffiness of the eyelids, inexplicable numbness or paresis (weakness) of arm or leg or some smaller muscle group, @ constant mild coryz@, a constant slight hoarseness, vague digestive disturbances, gastric distress and colicky pains, a peculiar waxy pallor, perhaps an onion or gar- lic odor about the skin, sweat or In several cases on record it has victims found lasting relief from the attacks after they were removed from the arsenical environment or received An unconsidered source of chronic otherwise healthful and commendable practice of eating fresh fruit, skins and all, or eating berries, cherries, grapes, etc., without careful washing. The objec- tion is that such fruit may carry considerable quantities of arsenic that has been recently applied in some in- secticide spray. This might not be of any significance in the case of oc- casional indulgence in such fresh fruit, but it is of importance where one is in the habit of eating an apple a day or anything like that. Keep right on eating plenty of apples, cherries, berries or what have you, but see that they are thoroly washed before you eat them. Of course, mere washing with water may not remove all the arsenic, if any is present. But it certainly helps, and personally, I don’t worry much about either arsenic poisoning or the ingestion of insect eggs if I have washed the apple with soap and water and rinsed it well be- fore I sink my teeth in it. Since there is a wee bit of arsenic normally excreted in the urine, it would not do to decide that a patient has arsenic poisoning just because a trace of arsenic is discovered in the urine. Instead the doctor injects one- half gram (approximately 7 grains) of sodium hyposulphite (formerly called thiosulphate of sods, commonly used by photographers as _ fixing agent) into the patient’s vein. The hyposulphite ‘picks up the arsenic eliminates it thru the kidneys. If 24 hour specimen shows a quantity of normal maxi- arsenic in his system. Well, if so, then bring steady patient's condition. That is the course for ordinary folk.

I hate to take the joy out of life even for a Connecticut Yankee or a Scotch- man who resents these foul slurs on his race, but I'm bound to say I don’t know how effective the hypo is when taken internally rather than intra- venously, and moreover it must be taken for at least six weeks, which would run the cost of the medicine away up to thirty cents or more—so if any of our Connecticut readers still decides to try it out I hope he will send in a report of his experience. That is, we'd like to know whether the treatment accomplishes the desir- ed result. It is immaterial whether the druggist charges two bits more or less than you think you ought to pay for the medicine. | Lead arsenate as an insecticide has; taken the place of Paris green (aceto- arsenite of copper), and lead arsenite is more likely to cause lead poisoning than arsenic poisoning.

The current inflation flurry has start- ed plenty of speculation about that, especially in NRA’s own ranks, One school of thought holds that prices would be going up so rapidly and everything else in the industrial and economic fields would be happen- ing so fast that the attempt to make relatively careful industrial adjust- ments would be blown out of the wa- ter, whereupon NRA would fade out.
