zzz Dope in La Grande
5.V'Where there is so much smuke there must be sonio
iiire," is old but true.
ill The stories of dope in La Grande have been floating
;Kor a long time. ' Some frowned on the idea, some believed
jjjt. Now comes the police with u clean-cut catch. They
Raided a joint and caught women and men with the goods.
:Lct the law act and act (illicitly.
iji Honorable citizens here will have no patience if trials
jjire delayed by technicalities; they will have no patience
with federal interference only to find that some link i:i
lithe evidence prevents conviction in federal courts; they
iiivill have no time nor patience with any procedure what-
'xoever that will tend to protect the guilty or delay their
iliinmediate conviction.
ill And while we are on this subject, let us call attention
jjlo "the Chinese of La Grande who have apparently over
I'itepped their-rights. Opium smoking among old Chinamen
liluis never been considered a great crime in the west, but
Ijivhen a Chinaman steps out and induces Americans to
ijfmoke opium or use dope, or sei-ves noodles with the "drajr
jjm thloud" loaded with essence of the poppy, away goes
ijutience of real Americans who have permitted these deB
Pendants of Old Confuscius to live under tho stars am
tripes.
rf. .., Thn noodle joint never was an elevating place. It is
tnovel and its novelty attracts young people. In this there
is nothing but innocent spoil, but innocence ceases when
Bi lynx-eyed foreigner begins to baiter drugs from a noodle
Jjoint; it ceases when the noodles aie served with a liquid
caressing that may have an opiate concealed in it; it ceases
fwhen Chinamen ignore the freedom that has been given
jthcii' own race here.
s The Evening Observer Mieves that law is king in
America, that it .should always be respected and orderly
jiuethods pursued, but should the law fail to have sufficient
Uccth to deal with certain conditions that are alleged to
exist here among some Chinamen, there will be a way
found to rid tha community of such characters, along with
iliSwhite dope peddler:;.
"Daugherly will be probed again," says the headline,
and Diiugheify seems to stand the probe. Hut the sunn
jthing for Daughcrty to do is resign and get out. Coolidge's
jneck is now getting bowed from carrying all that load in
Washington.
