POLICE HUNT DRUG EVIL
Join Cocaine Crusaders to Demand
Tariff Check
For the first time in its history
the police department of this city
lias today organized and begun uspe
( ial crusade to stamp out tin' alarm
ing spread of lie co. aiae habit which
is now recognized to tie one of
the most serious of vice and crime
throughout the country Every ef
fort is being made to enforce the
new state law against, the sale of
excessive ((UHnllties of this drug
for the users of tile ‘'dope fiend"
rather than the doctor. Fully 7a
per cent of the cocaine that passes
through tills eity the police admit,
finds its way to the victims of the
deadly drug through an underground
system df traffic which draws it
principally from foreign sources.
With no duty upon coca leaves, from
which illicit purveyors extract a
rough form of cocaine for their drug
crazed customers, and only a low
tariff imposed upon the quantities of
the drug that are shipped here for
secret distribution throughout the
country, it is recognized that the
chances for controlling the spread
ing cocaine curses are today very
slim, even under the most strict
state laws and police surveilanee. Ur
ging the recent, recommendation of
tile American Health League for
a prohibition tariff, internal revenue
tax and other means which iwll re
strict the use of cocaine, its substt
stiites and derivatives, to medical put
purposes, members of the medical
profession, welfare workers, clergy
men and the leading drug houses her
are now looking to congress to safe
guard every community in the
country by thus shutting off Ibis
chief ■‘'"inc< of 1 he Illegal supply of
the noxious drug. Through restric
tive lutvs can be and are being suc
cessfully enforced by compelling the
local manufacturers and wholesalers
to keep records of their cocaine sales
it lias been proven, unscrupulous re
tailors to whom the American houses
are perfectly free to obtain a limit
less and iintracoablo supply from
abroad.
More cocaine is sold to drug vic
tims from one of their supply stations
in a single night than an ordinary
purposes in a year, the police de
clare. Medical men who are interes
ing themselves In urging congress to
give the homes of this country this
hogh tariff protection from alu* rava
ges of the drug assert that the com
paratively small supply of cocaine neo
essary for professional purposes will
still be readily available for their
uses . With a high tariff of 11.50
an ounce put upon the foreign eo
caine haves It is proposed to de
ciselvely cheek I lie cocaine plague
and place it firmly under govern
ment control by an internal reve
nue lax.
No power but that of the people
can now Induce the law makers at
Washington to include in the Aid
rich Payne 1 >111 this necesssary clause
for the protection of ewrj Ancrl. an
family, the leader in this moveun nt
declared today. If every philanthro
pic * medical aud chari
lion throughout the land will recom
mend to Its members an immediate
appeal to Senator Isodge, who is
presenting this matter or to their
representatives in congress, it is
believed these efforts to combat tic
curse of cocaine may succeed.
The Telephone Girl
Tlie following reference to the
telephone girl though hardly up to the
standard of Kinerson hits off the sit
uation about as it is: “The telephone
fciri sits still in her chair and
listens to voices from everywhere.
She hears all the gossip, she hears
all the news, she knows who is hap
knows all our joys, she knows every
girl who is chasing the boys; she
knows of our troubles, she knows of
our strife, she knowe every man who
who is mean to his wife; she knows
knows every time we are out with
the hoys, she bears the excuses each
fellow employs; she know every
woman who lias a dark past, sheknow
man who is Inclined to be fast;” In
fast, tlieres’ a secret ’neath each sau
cy curl of that quiet demure look
ing telephone girl. If the telephone
girl would tell all that she knows,
it would turn half our friends into
bitterest foes; she would sow a
small wind that would soon be a gale,
engulf us in trouble and land us in
jail; she could let go a story,—
(which gaining in force; would
cause half our wives to sue for di
vorce; she could get all the churches
mixed up in a fight and turn nil
our days into sorrowing night; in
fait she could keep the whole town
in a stew, if she’d tell a tenth
part of the. things that she knew.
Now doesn’t It make your head whirl
when you think what you owe to the
telephone girl ?”—(Downs News,

MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas City
Stock Yard Correspondent
h.m.-us City Stock Yards, June 7,
1909. -Cattle receipt.-* last week ag
| Riegated 43.000 head hen-, heaviest
work in several month* The pro
I portion of grass cattle was fairly
heavy for so early' in the summer,
and t he run of grasset* is again heavy
loth; . indicating that there will be
araeiically no period this summer of
w ry scant cattle receipts. The mar
ket declined 10 lo 20 cents last week,
least kiss on the best cattle, and
the lop sales of yearlings at $7.00,
and heavy steers at the same price,
vvoio as good as any previous time
this season. The run today is
14,000 head, containing a larger per
centage of grass cattle than any pre
vious day this summer. The fed
grades and those fattened mostly on
or entirely on grass have come to
the parting of the ways today, fed
cattle strong to 10 higher, medium
and low grade cattle weak lo 10
lower. Condition of the meat trade
is fairly healthy, and conservative
marketing of corn fed cattle during
June will no doubt result in the real
ization of some high price levels later
this month for good cattle. The ex
tremely low price of hogs is an ele
ment of profit that will encourage
feeders to hold on. Top steers sold
today at $6.90, and bulk of the decent
fed steers bring $5,90 to $6.75. Cows
and heifers contain fewer choice fed
grades than a short time ago, cows
ranging from $3.25 to $5.50, heifers
$3.75 to $6.60, hulls $3.40 to $5 00, cal
ves $4 .00 to $7.00. Stockers and
feeder trade was heavier than usual
hist week, without much net chonge
in prices, market steady today, Stock
ers at $3.75 lo $5.50, feeders $4.75
to $5,60.
Ail hough the week closed Saturday
with ti lower hog morket, the ten
dency during the week was upward,
and prices averaged highest of the
year. Run was only 60,000 for the
week, much below the normal for
June, and the moderate supply of
10,000 head today Indicates that the
expected heavy June receipts will
fail to materialize, and that owners
have not much to fear as to prices
balance of this month. The market
is strong to 5 higher today, top $7.55,
weights above 200 pounds at $7.20 to
$7.55, light hogs up to $7.35, pigs
$5.75 to $6.75, when not sold right in
without sorting.
Sheep and iambs had a backset
last, week, declining 25 to 50 cents
for the week, but this is not surpris
ing, as the top heavy conditions of
the market naturally subjects it to
some erratic moves. Run is 7,000
today, market firm, spring lambs
today at $8.40, and clipped grass
wethers from Texas at $6.00. proba
tilv not quite the limit of prices in
either class. Clipped lambs an
worth up in $7.75,fat gnats $4.2.>. thin
goats for the country $3.25 to $3.75.
