Clothing which requires disinfect-
ing should be submitted for about
three hours to temperature of $50
degrees in a chamber charged with
sulphuric fumes from a large guam
tity Of sulphur.-T The chamber should
be so constructed as to prevent the
fumes from passing of. No germs
can stand this.
After a room has been used by a
person sick with any contagious dis
ease. 1t becomes necessary to disinfect
II before 1t Is fit to be used again. This
Is done by removing and burning the
paper on the walls, removing the bed
steads and other furniture, and expo
sing them to air and wind, and giving
them a fresh coat of varnish; by hay
ing the mattress made over new and
the hair boiled; by burning in the
room three pounds of sulphur, and by
whltewashing, painting and papering
the room anew.
Now that it Is generally conceded
that consumption is caused by germs
which multiply in the lungs, a meth
cd Of disinfecting them, which shall
be harmless, has been sought for, but
as yet without avail. The yapor of
creosote, the oil of the eucalyptus and
carbolic acid have been tried, and
TO some extent they may paralyze or
stun the germs and prevent their ra-
Pid increase, but as the passages of
the lungs are delicate, and the vapor
cannot be brought very near to them
without injury, the good effects are
slight But there Is one method which
cannot fail to prove beneficial and
that is the inhalation of large quaint
ties of fresh, pure air. This is worth
more than any disinfectant for the
lungs and can do no harm.-PracticaI

ton has been formed and incorpor-
ated is "for the purpose of holding,
owning and buying real estate; the
improvement, cultivation and settle
ment of its lands; the promotion of
immigration; the selling, renting,
leasing, or otherwise conveying its
real estate or personal property; to
own, hold and acquire, by purchase
or otherwise, personal or real proper
ty for itself or for others; to borrow
money on its obligations; the adop-
ton Of measures and means, in dis
cretion Of its management, necessary
to carry out the the purpose named
and allowed by law" 1t is the in
tention to bring into cultivation
these lands and where practicable tc
provide for a system of irrigation
In short. to improve their lands
The capital stock is 50 100000, and

terested are abundantly able, fnan-
cially, to carry out their plans. We

The Newspaper and the Public

The Newspaper and the Public.
The following thoughts, taken from the
salutatory of the RadtOrd Va.) Enterprise,
will be found very profitable to digest if
all VIII apply the principles set forth to
their individual cases. In all the essays
and speeches that have come to the
writer's notice the true attitude of q
newspaper publisher to his constituency
has not been so forcibly and tersely set
forth as in these words:
"The popular opinion of the mission OF
local journal sadly needs revision, al
though in candor we confess that it gains
justification from many papers. The
popular estimate of the real object Of a
local paper is largely influenced by the
traditional belief that it adds nightly to
the reputation of the community for in
telligence and responsibility, and that the
town paper is time-honored institution
which it is well to encourage. provided it
can be done without cost. This view of
the matter finds increased favor when it is
remembered what glorious opportunities
are presented for grinding ones ak at the
expenses of the long-suffering and long
haired individual who revels in the honor
of his position as editor, and who accepts
garden truck in lieu of shekels. The con-
clusion is easily reached that newspaper
even if of doubtful utility, should be
allowed to pick up precarious existence,
All this should be changed, and there
should be substituted a reciprocity be-
tween the newspaper and the public,
based on strict business principles. The
newspaper publisher for every dollar re-
ceived should furnish dollars worth of
his commodities or advertising
space. He should cease playing the role
OF perennial pauper, begging for support
if he knows he cannot return an equiva-
lent. On the other hand, he has a right
to demand and receive full compensation
for his service in gathering and publish.
imp the news OF the town and for the
value of all space given to advertising
purposes. In short, like any other trades
f.. man, he should conduct his paper as 6
business enterprise. Whatever OF his
time or means publisher may feel in
clined 10 dispense in charity and philan.
thropic effort he should do on the same
basis and under the same conditions as
any other citizen or tradesman, but his
newspaper business should be conducted
upon the same principle of fair exchange
of commodities which regulates all bust
ness transactions"

IF We Behave Ourselves.

In the light Of recent events we
are forcibly reminded that "there
are no good Indians except the dead
ones" Why the government should
feed and clothe these miscreants
while law-abiding, hard working,
white American citizens are COM
PEELED to work for their food and
raiment is one Of those things in
political economy that we have
never been able to fully understand
We are in favor of treating the In,
dams just the same as other citizens
are treated-no better and no worse
and if they will not work and
earn an honest Livelihood, let then
starve. We think we are as gooG
as the Indians are, if we behave our
selves.

In politics everything is uncertain
in Kansas. This was not always so.
There was time when the only
question to be considered was the
size Of the republican majority. The
political situation. as it relates to the
election of United States Senator,
the all-ahsorbing topic at present, is
exceedingly complicated and N our
Judgment no one can foretell what
the outcome will be. In the COM
ing legislature there will be 81 ALI
ance, q republicans and Z demo-
Gratis. In the senate there will be
80 votes for Ingalls,. The election
will be by joint ballot and it will
take SO votes to elect. A casual
glance at the above figures would
seem to indicate the certainty of In
gals defeat, for if all Of the 81 ALI
ance votes be cast against him their
candidate would have a clear major
ity of s votes. to say nothing about
the Z democrats, who are certainly
as likely to vote against ingalls, as
for him. But an analysis of the al
lance vote shows that 81 of the al
lance members were former repub-
licans and it is claimed that % of
them have already given Senator
ingalls, voluntary assurance that
they will support him. If these
votes can be relied upon he will GER
tainly be elected, because he can
count absolutely on the 80 votes in
senate and the q republican votes
in the legislature. Again, there
will be state printer to elect, and
there are several democratic candi-
dates for that office. Of course they
must make a combination with one
of the other parties or they will
have no show whatever. 1t is now
thought that if the republicans will
assist them in obtaining this office
the democrats can secure enough
votes from the 80 democratic-alli-
ance members to secure the election
of republican United States Sena.
tor even if the republican-alliance
members should all vote against
him. Of course the republican:
could afford to mako this combina
ton if necessary. You will see from
the above that politics in Kansas, a.
relates to the election Of a United
States Senator, is very uncertain and
Notwithstanding the alliance appar
emily has a clear majority, the words
of Senator Ingalls, may be verified
