Great game, this spending of public funds in aid of navigation and political aspiration! says Walter V.

Woahlke in June Technical World Magazine. For the convenience and the comfort of a wealthy club, national funda are readily available, but for the protection of a. hundred thousand flooded homes, expenditures must be stinted, culled, pared, made; with frowning faces. There Js alwaya for the of obscure creeks and impassable, empty estuaries; there is a splendjdemoothly. working system for the eft dent disbursement' of national funds on poliical shoals that He hetwMu Congressional districts and the public crib at Washington, but there no system, no smooth working, comprehensive plan to cope with the floods, whoso ever rising crests annually demand a greater toll in property and lives.

Officially, Congress has not. cared whether the entire country is flooded ten feet deep every year. Officially, Congress baa not been In the flood protection buainess. Its sole aim has been to "promote com tnerca and aid navigation." If, incidentally, a few dredged creeks will carry off the flood of adverse votes that threaten to maroon the perspiring M. C.

Congress, however, must not appropriate money for flood control. "Aid to navigation." that Is the sesamlc term.wAlch opens he door of the TTeaeury. Of course, there la a good reason for the monotonous recurrence of breaks In the American levees. Pork, national and local.

This would ba a serious wrong to China for It la apparent that the republic la determined to carry out the Imperial edict abolishing the opium traffic. Seven of the eighteen provinces are declared free from the poppy and where it Is still grown troops have been sent to uproot It in spite of local opposition, amounting in places to actual rebellion. The president of the republic, Tuan 8hih Kal, In announcing the reforms that he intended to carry out.

expressed his views on the opium question In the following emphatio language: "More Important by far to the present generation of my people is the complete extermination of opium And the opinm habit China hae been dying from tffls curse for more than half a century fifty nine years, to be exact Her people, overcome by this vile drug, have been half asleep and have not known that they and their country were dying. Years ago the nation appealed for outside aid in its suppression, and the world knows what aid was rendered. The drug was forced upon ua more than before. For nearly sixty years it has stood as A great crime of humanity. But we will atop it and free the land of the devouring acourge.

Our National Assembly haa already passed many laws regarding It and these laws will be enforced. We are establishing an army and that army will light opium and opium smugglers on all the frontiers of land and aea, opium dealers and sub dealers In all of the citlea and town, and opium users every, where." Up to the hour of going to press we have had no poaltive that Huntington would have a new hotel building this summer. "1 Vice President Marshall's latest stunt la the writing 'of a letter to the Indianapolis Democrats In which he; state that he always opposed the machine before the primaries.

In which case it Is wondered why all this expense in telegraph tolls.

CUEEENT COMMENT FOREIGNERS AND AMERICAN NAMES. (Chicago Record Herald.) For many yeara lawyers, historians and others have been discussing the question of the rather excessive Americanization of recent immigrants through the adoption of ancient and honorable native family names. It is well enough for a Smitkowltskl to prefer Smith; it is well for naturalized citizens to lop off syllables', get rid of strange sounds, avoid the ridicule of fools, by adopting names that seem near American. But there Is, we are told, a limit to this practice. When aliens from Sicily, Greece, Russian Poland, call themselves Adsm, Endlcott, Seward, Franklin, Drexel, Lincoln, it is time to protest.

This Is confusing, unfair and wrong. It is true, as lawyers point out, that the practice in question may lead to difficulties In the settlement of estates and the removals of clouds on titles. Fraud and imposture may find new channels in the use of names associated with large interests and inherited property. But the matter is not a simple one. The courts have' decided repeatedly that a person has a common law rjght to change his name, so long aa there Is no in tent to escape obligations or defraud creditors.

In many cases aliens apply for permission to change their names, and it is usually granted rlargely because the permission Is really unnecessary. To pass rigid statutes any change of name is to go too far and to invite violatldn of law. OUR DEARTH OR HEROES. (Phlldelapbla One of the drops of wisdom that Ambassador Brye left on his departure from our shores was this: "A people Is known by the heroes it has produced. Tour people who produced and followed and honored George Washington and Abraham Lincoln have alwaya been most truly represented by those statesmen and writers, who have had the spirit and have tried to walk In' the steps of those two heroes, who loved peace and justice and In whose minds no bitter or selfish thoughts found lodgment." Now this la high paise.

It is more than that. It Is putting the standards way up. Washington and Lin assets to any people, hut there la a ieaf thawehiAt overwork" them; 1 Already we have made Washington so much of a chromo that our young people fall utterly to get the human! point of view. The same thing, we fear, la coming to pass In the case of Lincoln. This year we are in the semi centennial of the civil war.

The great Gettysburg celebration will exalt Lincoln wonderfully. Hia speech will be put in the senlth, and Lincoln may be pushed just a few degrees beyond human emulation. It might be wise to look around for new heroes for other characters whom we may hold before the youth of the country as examples. FAINT HEARTED HUNGER STRIKE. 'H (Cleveland Plain Dealer.) Hugh Franklin, a devoted male militant suffrage, was recently released from prison.

He is a man of some prominence, a nephew of the British postmaster general. He bad hunger striked, according to the doctrine of his political cult. And when he was released he was haled before the supreme council of militancy, and his commission aa a suffraget was publicly torn to bits and thrown in his face. Why this humiliation, and why this apparent ingraft tudef Simply this, Mr. Franklin bad by actual count, been forcibly fad 141 times during his incarceration.

The kindliness of the British prison dattors was not wasted on a mere and the tube and pump were again and again employed despite his most strenuous resistance. It seems that he did not resist enough to satisfy the code of Pankhurstlsm. Being fed 141 times was an' offense for which there could be no palliation and no forgiveness. The culprit has been thrust forth with contumely. rINWR HiBifS LADIES' WEEK AT THE Elite Beauty Shop Special Sale on Our Natural Hair Switches i LENGTHS 20 TO 40 IN.
