A Now Boru physician announces that rare beef i* a positive cui*. for malaria. Wonder how tnany relative? that physician ha? in th butcher business. We ilccplv jtvnipa'hia1 with Editor Homo of the Rocky M mm Telegram. who is laid up with the mumps. Only why Home shout* have decided to h?? tak? n d? s much mere fashionable, is something we can't understand. Among the Safety First suggestions that the Charl??re OW rv make* is : "iK u't m-r let a book agent sit dowu!" Henry Ford has another peace plan. Everybody probably admir Hennerv's nerve, but he should be warned that "enough is sufficient. Senator Weeks is the first of the Republican candidate* for prcsi dent to get cold feet. He has the consolation of knowing, however, that he won't be the last. "One good thing about the wrist watch," says the Charlotte Ob ?ver. "is that one was never lo9t in a crap game." AN OVERDOSE OF LENIENCY. In publishing the cases which have been tried before the recorder during the last several months, we have noticed that but very few of them have had any tines attached to thom. For example, there have been innumerable cases of speeding. We believe that we are safe in 9aviug that there have not been more rhan two or three of these eases which have received any other pun ishment than "costs." Tf it is a violation of the city ordinance to run a machine more than eight miles an hour, those who repeatedly Tlreak the law should be made to pay a larger fine upon eaeh offense. Otherwise, the entire ordinance might as well be repealed, for if it is supposed for one minute that the slapping of a two-thirty-five fine on the back of a man, who is able to own and run an automobile, i? going to have any effect, a great mistake is being made. Many cases of intoxication have also been brought up of late and in each one, the verdict is invariably "costs." It appears to make liti If di^rence whether s mnn is up for his first* off??nsp of whether he lian been brought up s?? many times that he has ljjst count. If it is the inrention of the local court to put a halt on the viola tion of city ordinances, something else must be done besides making a man pay two or throe dollars. It is all well and good to be lenient with a person who is arrested the first time, but when that same person is brought up again on the same charge, it is ridiculous to impose the same penalty upon him that he wm made to undergo for hi?; initial offense. THE PROPER STEP FOR PROHIBITION. Senator Dillingham has proposed to the Senate judiciary com mitter an amendment in the nature of a substitute which would shut alcoholic liquors out of interstate commerce. In other words, the Senator desires to make it prohibitory to ship liquor into a State which has already expressed itself as in favor of prohibition. The Senator's plan is, in our opinion, the best of the many sug gestions that have been made in the past regarding the bringing about of prohibition. It will give absolute prohibition to those States which have already wted for prohibition and it will not in terfere with those States which desire to remain "wet." It will also steer entirely clear of that delicate question of "States rights." It is true that it will keep those residents in "drv" states, whh desire to obtain liquor, from doing so, but when the majority of .voters in these States have voted in favor of prohibition, the voice of the minority does not count for much. They need not be con sidered. Under our present plan of obtaining national prohibition,?that is, one State at a time?none of the States will be entirely dry until the last one votfs against pr?>hibition, for the ?listilleries and breweries in that last Stato can tend liquor all over the country into those oth??r States. Under Senator Dillingham's plan, however, not one drop of liqnor would l?e allowed in a dry State. I North Carolina is said to be a prohibition State. but is it ? There is enough liquor in North Carolina toda^to float. the large-t battle ship of the L nited States navv. riiere will I* as long as there is one single State in the Union that ia wet. If the Anti-Saloon-League and the other prohibition enthusiast* would give up their fight for national prohibition at one swoop and get behind Senator Dilling ham's measure, they would accomplish more for true prohibition than they can do in ten years under their present methods. Another side of the subject is also to he considered. There has been mnch argument against national prohibition. Many prominent men have declared. that, it will^hring about, a state of lawnesane*s and violation of federal laws. tTp to the present time, although there has been some moonshining going on.yt has amounted to but comparatively little. If Senator Dillingham's plan goes through and the ahipmcnt of liquor iato dry territory is absolntelv forbidden, wa may have a chance to see how conditions in those States, which are effected, will adjust themselves. Taken from every point of view, the Senator'? bill, if it goes through, will he one of the most important that will he passed at ?hi? session of Congress. v ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE , DAILY NEWS GIVE RESU L fS are wide-open for comparison with any cigarette at toy price 1 Most sensitive smokers appreciate the pleasure Camel quality offers.
