IT'S A SHAME
Isn't it a shame that in Silver

town of metropolitan

people within her borders, it
should be possible that not

should be Held within a space of
five months?

So far as the Catholics

PROPERTY RIGHTS VS. PUB
LIC HEALTH
A New York dealer in drugs
recently prosecuted for
counterfeiting the trade-Mark for
Carters Little Liver Pills and for
was
selling goods bearing this count
erfeit mark.
He was found guil
ty and, although it was his first
offense, the court refused to im
pose a fine, but sentenced him to
four months' imprisonment in
the penitentiary at hard labor
without the possibility of
mutation for good behavior.
Counterfeiting, of course, is a
serious crime and as such should
be punished. Nevertheless, there
are more serious crimes, such, for
instance, as adulterating food
stuffs, selling putrid material for
good or -dispensing dangerous
habit-forming drugs, like
in the shape of soft drinks. All
these crimes are crimes against
the person—against the public
health—against, the very lives of
the people. Although thegovern

The court considered a

A St. Louis house sold a powder

In this case the court suspended

Some day, says The

found that will consider the
crimes of making drug fiends of
young people, of poisoning bab
ies with opium mixtures or of
killing women with headache
powders as more serious offenses
than the counterfeiting of the
label of a fraudulent

Government to Help Keep Up
Roads
If the bill now before the House
es, the government will spend twelve
millions a year towards good roads.
The House Committee on Agriculture
is considering a good roads bill, which
embodies the viiws of twenty-eight
members of the House who are the
authors' of individual good roads mea
sures.
pass
The composite bill embraces a plan
for eulisting the aid of the Federal Gov
ernment in the improvement of the
highways of the country.
The measure divides the roads of the
country into three classes, ranging from
high grade macadamized to dirt high
ways, and the Federal Government is
required to pay an annual toll for the
use of these roads for ruaal mail
pur
poses. The toll is $30 per mile per an
num for Class A, $20 for Claes B and $10
forClassC. In this way it is estimated
the Government will contribute $12,000,
000 annually to good roads in the vari
ous States.
Dictograph Reveals Crime
The dictograph, the sensitive instru
ment which has lent itself so marvel
ously to the purpose of securing evi
dence of crime, is described in an illus
trated article in Popular Mechanics.
The instrument comprises a most
tive transmitter
battery and as much wire
sary. The entire outfit can be held in
one hand and not cover all the fingers.
Tiie transmitter can be placed any
where in the loom where the person
wnose evidence is desired will be most
likely to.talk.
In the Ohio bribery cases it was put
under a sofa in a hotel room.
Francisco it Vas placed beneath the bed
in a cell of the city jail.
Canaria, where it was used iji a hotel,
it was placed on a table under papers.
It might be hung an the wall beneatl
picture or a calendar, an ordinary pin
being strong enough to hold it in place.
Silk-covered wire can be run from the
transmitter to whatever room the
erator desires, and when connected,
the person hotting the receiver to his
ear hears distinctly every wind uttered
in the room where the transmitter lias
been placed Stenographers if so equip
ped, can make a verbatim report of
such conversations, as lias been doue in

SL50 Coal Carries $2 in Gold
An interesting feature about the coal
rained at Cambria, Wyo., is that it is
claimed to be gold-bearing. Some of the
coal has contained as much as $2 per
ton in gold, and the coal was sold for
only $1.60 per ton. When coke made at
Cambria was selling for $3.60 per ton
samples were taken from 31 cars during
a period of three weeks and assayed.
The samples showed an average of $2.46
per ton in gold and $0.28 in Silver. The
explanation offered for the presence of
gold in this coal is that the sands which
submerged the old peat bog and
form the roof of the coal bed were de
rived in part from gold-bearing alluvium.
While the sand was being deposited the
gold worked down into the underlying
hog and is now found in the coal.
