Extremely zealous efforts are being put forth in certain .directions.for -the en- forcement of the prohibitior mnendment, but no attention, whatever is -being.given to the enforcement of ‘the federal law where violations are open and little or no effort made at concealment. This contrast is to be noted in the or- der issued by the treasury department of tie government reguiring government agents to search the- baggase of the di plomatic representatives of other nations and to seize whatever liquor is found |amongst it and thé’ conditions which ex- ist in the citles of this country where it is recognized that they are just as. wet {if not “wetter than ever” and where the sale of liquor is being carrled .on openiy and without restraint. It is plainly ‘a osse of mlmnr at a gnat and swaliowing a cimel. It means putting forth an effort that is liable to result in sekious international compli- cations ¥ we proceed to search the bag- gage of foreign diplomats and which bids *air to be blocked hy the state de: partuent, tut it demorstrates neverthe- less that the treasury. depafment is willing to' go to any length in' behalf of the dry amendment: in-one direction but calmly turns its' back oni the perform- ance of “its duty im upholding the law. where there isn’t any question as %o its authority. It is ridiculous on the face of it to think of stopping foreign diplomats from Representatives, ORGE THOMPSON, UDIUS V. PENDL Judge of P J. AYLING.

Much has been said about the Des Moines speech which Senator Harding made. In spite of his subsequent decla- metions to the effgct that the distorted meanings applied to it were incorrect a eharge oo portion of that speech is still being quoted in an effort to show that Mr. Harding is for no league at all. Noth- Ing 1 be farther from the fa v Harding de ‘When “It is not that 1 am erring to the dan- mposed upon this the covenant under article ten and abeut which he wag then talk- ing. He 8 opposed to article ten buf pot to good points in the league or ay undersianding between nations. The country has, however, been watchs Ing the Cox methods. It is conscious of the fact that President Wilson has de- clared, following his talk with Cox, that they are in full accord. Cox hasn't at- te ed t0 deny it. The country is de- termined to get away from a contin- vance of conditions and, policies similar to what it has been having and it knows that there is no chance whatever to do o unless Harding is elected. That is sentiment from one end of the coun- try to the other is running so strong in that direction. eountry by A BAD PRACTICE. Waiting until an automobile gets on the railroad tracks before attempting to find out whether a train is coming is ted practice and too often brings seri- pus results. This is what was done by the dri of an auto bus at a New Jer- Sey railroad croesing at Belford this weck if the statement of eye witnesses bs correct. Two dead and five injured were numbered on the casualty 1ist when 2 roll call had been taken. Thie was an unguarded raflroad cross- Ing at grade. It does not appear that view of the tracks was obstructed and it #oes not appear that effort was made to guard the safety of the bus oceupants by looking for a train which had whis- #ed until one of thé two tracks had been eroesed and then the sight of an on- coming train so confused the driver that he stalled his engine instead of getting his car out of the way. It was & sad preliminary to a wed- @ng but it was apparently another of those instances where the importanee of $howing respect for the death-dealing pwoers of a locomotive was underval- ued. Too often is it a fact that siight attention Is paid to railroad crossings, because drivers have negoflated them so frequently without mishap that they get the impression that there is no danger. There is nothing inconsistept in claim- fng that such crossings should be guard- ed by signals, but even with thoss it @oesn’t mean that these driving vehicles seross them are relieved of the impor- tant respomsibilily of giving proper pro- Waction to self and fellow occupants.

THOSE FISHER CARDS. Efforts - of Professor .Fisher to make votes for Cox and Roosevelt from among pro-league independents is bringim forth such resentment as might be. ex- pected. all, to the waste basket without giving it further consideration. Their disgust -with such efforts js thereby. silently man- ifested but there are not a few who'are resenting such apeals and not doing =o silently but publicly. ' That many would return them with' their open opposition to any such plan made clear was to be expected but there are those who have seen fit to send their repliu by way of the New Yark- Herald. On the card that wm be forwarded to the Fisher headquarters, and first sent to the Herald Theodore L. Bristol of Ansonia,’ Conn,, wrote: “Not for one minute!. My opinion is that vour heart has run away with your head!” On another (’A!d ‘returned by Rev. Fred Sidney Mayer of Baltimore in the “ume ‘way, ‘appears: “I should consider the election of Cox and Roosevelt as a great calamity. They would prolong the impasse that the stubbornness of Wilson has too long prolonged and from which the whole “orld suffers” Such views plainly disclose the ‘opposi- Frofessor Risher -advocates - and - indi- eate what will be the attitude of othersy who have received thé cards even though they deal with thém in silent contempt. FDITORIAL NOTES. Probably some will be surprised that Ponzi has actually been found to be in- solvent. Mr. Cox says Mr. Wilson isn't rurining for president but Mr., Wilson is of eourse pulling, the strings. These are days to wetch . your - step.

Among “ the many causés of lateral curvative, besides malformation and _tase of| asymmetries of bone, may be mentioned 'State vs, McKee, 73 Conn., page 29, de- o cided in May, 1900, says in part: “Every citizen has. an equal right to use his mental endowments, as weil as his prop- .erty, in any harmless occupation or man- ner; but he has no right to use them s0 as to injure his fellow citizens or to interests of society. Immunity in the mischievous use s 2s inconsistent With civil liberty a$ prohi- bition of the harmless use.
