WILL HELP DRY STATES.
War on “blind tigers” and on
“bootleggers” has been declared by
the administration. Hereafter per
song engaging in these forms of the
liquor traflic are to be dealt with
much more drastically than hereto
fore,
This stand of the government has
particular reference to violation of
the internal revenue laws in ‘‘dry”
counties where local enactments pro
hibit dealing in liquor, Loud com
plaints had come to President Taft
from various dry districts, notably
in the South and West, that the
prohibition laws were negatived
through the operation of “blind
tigers” and ‘‘hootleggers” and in re
sponse to demands for remedial
measures he directed that steps be
taken to stop the practices 8o far as
lay within the federal power.
New regulations were drawn un
der the supervision of Mr. Cabell,
the commissioner of internal reve
nue, and approved by Secretary
MacVeagh recently, They set out
that as the peddling of liquors is
not contemplated by the internal
revenue laws and no provigion is
made for the issuing of any stamp
legalizing such practice, peddlers of
liquor, “‘bootleggers,” are not to be
regarded as coming within the class
of unintentional violators and should
be arrested and reported for prose
cution whenever found selling liquor
in such manner,
Heavy penalties or fine or impris
onment or both are prescribed for
violations of this law,
As a sapplemental assistance to
the states in the enforcement of
their prohibition laws a method has
been provided by which they may
obtain information gathered by the
federal government of internal rev
enue violations,

Little Tommy returned sore and
trembling from the torture room.
“Doesn’t your papa ever thrash
you ?” he asked his chum, who is the
son of a cabinet minister.
“l should say not!” replied the
other loftily. “Every time he threat
ens to cane me I read him an ex
tract from his great peace at any
price speech, in which he said:
“These barbarians are like wayward
children, but have we on that ac
count the right to take away their
heaven sent privilege to do as they
please? Let us treat them as we
would our own wayward children—
plead with them, bescech them, but
never coerce them with either gun
ar rod”
“That’s a good deal to remem
ber,” remarked Tommy.
“Yes, but now he’s got so used to
it that he drops the cane as soon as
I start.”—London Answers.
Love the Greater Wisdom.
Wisdom always betrays the love
in it. Love, just another warmer,
closer name for wisdom, is selfish
ness absolute. It is the law and
the sweetness of the one organism
which the universe is.
The eternal strange forces, love
and selfishness, faith and godliness,
have been submerged—nay, hidden
~{rom human consciousness in the
swish and swash of sentimentalism
and- hypocrisy. 'They stand, none
the less, eternal, complete, the foun
dation, the one nccessity, of the
world, the home and character. !
They are the inner fact of man
waiting to enamor him of the
chance of completeness.
Where they arc not recognized
and made at home in the character
man finds his life shredded to scraps
and rags.—Practical Idenls.
