STATE BOARD Of beairs.
ss"s Of Subjects Discussed q, 0usf.ssiy
Assi'as wednesday.

There was meeting Of the State board
OF health at the State House we5ne.asy
An members were present. The hrst nat
ter under discussloa was the question of
providing for a better and wider d!str;bati,u
OF the ooarfs circular reiasiag to preven-
hon OF consumption. The prineipls
suggestion ia this connection wa,
that there should be law pro-
siding that the local board should
be notified Of any cases Of pulmonary ta-
oerculosis and that the State board be then
notified so that they will be able TO dis,rib-
ute where and when most needed the eircu.
lar on prevention Of the disease. A com
mittee was appointed to take this matter in
to consideration.
The ssetion on hygiene Of the Pan Amer
ican Medical Congress held 10 Washington
last fall discussed the question Of prevrn-
ton Of pulmonary consumption Indeed
the discussion of this matter was lively and
interesting add the vote was unanimous for
making the disease legally notidabIe
Secretary Young, as registrar of vital
statistics, reported to the board as a matter
Of interest to the members, that he had
been successful in getting returns Of births,
marriages and deaths from every organized
plantation in the State, and OF every city and
town with the exception of tao Of the small
er towns and from one Of these towns tel
egram had been received that the town clerk
is getting the returns ready to send. DR..
Young also mentioned the fact that a great
deal Of iiuBe, much more than was
anticipated, was found necessary in
getting the returns of the brih,, deaths ard
marriages into as complete shape as pos
sibie. For this purpose a communication
has been had with physicians,
to xn-eIerks and others in regard to
more than 1000 records of deaths not u
say anything about a smaller though rather
large number of records of births and mar
riages. In every case in which there has
been incompleteness or doubt the Obi sct
has been to have the defet removed.
There were number of other subjects
under discussion. sessions being held both
forenoon and afternoon.

The condition of the Democratic party
on the subject of the silver coinage is
well illustrated by the remarks of Con-
gresham Champ Clark of Missouri
and Congressman Hendrix of Brooklyn
at the Tammany celebration which
was alluded to yesterday. ''Champ"
is willing to have the Sherman law re-
pealed provided he can get some act
still more favorable to silver in it's place.
Mr.. Hendrix wants it repealed uncon-
ditionally, and silver relegated to the
rear permanently. In the last House the
Democrats who agreed with Mr.. Clark
were much more numerous than those
who agreed with Mr.. Hendrix. Per-
haps the conditions will be reversed in
the next House, but it is possible to be
altogether too sanguine on this point.
The silver men are by no means dead nor
even sleeping.

been very deity inserted in the grass to
effectually shut out American competi-
ton in hog meats.
There is in Europe law applying to
tobacco known as the law of Ragie.
Messrs. Murphy and Mates will inVesti-
gate and report on its workings. This
law is in effect in several countries, not
ably in France. Under it there is an alb
solute government monopoly Of tobacco.
every tobacco shop being practically
government depot. The scheme is not
unlike that under which Governor Till
man 'barkeeps" for South Carolina
drinkers. Tt is thought well to know if
this law binders American tobacco sales,
not so much in this instance because of
the present need of a wider tobacco mar
ket as because it is felt that with the
growth of tobacco culture the time NAV
come when we will need other markets.
In other words, the aim is to carry out
Secretary Morton's ideas of free trade be-
tween all the world
why can't American wines be intro
duced into the northern countries of Eu-
rope in competition with the cheaper and
medium grades of wines imported at
present from the countries of southern
Europe?' asked Secretary Morton. We
can improve our wines until we may be
able to supplant Italy and France in a
large part of its vinous trade Mr.. Nor
ton knows we can't compete III such
clarets as LaIitte or fine champagnes or
the best sauternes, but we can pay the
freight and sell at cheaper price as good
wines as the masses now drink. We
ought also to compete with Mediterra-
mean Europe in preserved fruits, raisins,
etc
When all this information has been Sc
cured, the agricultural department will
turn over all complaints of injustice to
American productions arising from the
laws to Secretary Gresham for him to
use his good Offices and have the bars let
down. All information as to prejudices
and the ways Of the trade will be pub
licly disseminated. Having thus laid
open the field, American enterprise will
be told to sail in and win.
The secretary says that we have done
less than any other nation to open up
way for our business men. Denmark
keeps two agents in Great Britain to look
after its dairy interests alone. Sweden
also has an agent in England, and all the
nations send men to the United States to
learn about us, but we don't seem to
care to learn about business ways of
other nations. c. Ell. MERRILLAT.

THE PEARY EXPEDITION.

The HEARY EXPEDITION,
Lieut.. Peary and his party of explor-
ers bid adieu to the United States today
and sail for the Arctic regions, making
brief stops at one or two points for some
equipment. In brief period he will be
beyond the reach of mails and telegraphs,
practically cut off from all communica-
ton with the civilized world The Fall
con will bring back news of his landing
on the Greenland coast, but after that
two years will have elapsed before we
get any news of him unless perchance
some whaler should bring us some stray
piece of intelligence.
1t is safe to say that no expedition has
ever started for the Arctic regions so
well equipped to accomplish its object
as this one. Personal experience has
taught Lieut. Peary just what things are
needed. He does not sail into region
unknown to him, but he is well aware of
the conditions that he is to encounter.
and experience and scientific investiga-
ton have informed him how best to meet
them and to triumph over them. Lieut..
Peary's chief object is not the one that
was uppermost in the minds of most of
the early Arctic explorers, to see how near
he can get to the pole, but to settle some
important geographical questions, relat-
ing especially to Greenland, to study the
auroras and to complete his chronological
investigation among the Esquimos. Yet
there is good reason for believing that he
will get nearer the pole than any proceed
ing explorer, and it is among the possi-
bilities that he may even reach that some
what imaginary point. At any rate we
may be assured that whatever pluck and
determination, supplemented by thorough
knowledge, practical experience, sound
Judgment and admirable equipment. can
do will be done.
Peary's past achievements justify the
expectation that his future one will be
even more distinguished. and will re-
dound to his own glory and to that of
the country of which he is a citizen. The
best wishes of all his countrymen will be
with him in his sojourn within the Arc
tic circle. May abundant success crown
his efforts May the Lieutenant and all
his party return to us when their work is
done in the same good health and spirits
in which they sail away from us today.

It is little difficult to understand
what the Argus correspondent, E. C. S.,
is driving at. The other day he re-
buked the PRESS and other Republican
newspapers for endorsing suggestion
looking to the suspension of the Sher-
man act at the special session of Con-
gress instead of its repeal, saying that it
indicated that the Republicans were go
ing to "play politics. We pointed out
that the author of the suggestion was
Gen. Wheeler, an uncompromising
Democrat, fact that negatived the CEN
trail idea of his letter, that the suspen-
sion suggestion had been made by the
Republicans to "play politics. where
upon he says the PRESS is lodging; that
the question is not who offered the sug-
gestion, but whether the PRESS thinks
it good one or not Yet it was for en-
dorsing the suggestion that he was re-
buking the PRESS. Yes, Mr.. E. C. s.,
the PRESS still adheres to the opinion
that Congressman Wheeler's suggestion
is good one. Now bring your "gigan-
tic intellect to bear and administer an
other ''stinging rebuke.''

AGRICULTURAL EvANeELIsTs.
Their Names Are Murphy and MATES and
Their Field Europe.

Their Names Are Murphy and Mates and
Their Field Europe.
Especial Corfespondence]
WASHINGTON, July 6.-Some time dur
ing this month or early in August Colo
mel Charles j. Murphy and John Mates
will sail for Europe on special mission
for the agricultural department.. They
are the evangelists Of American produc-
tons Of the soil. Colonel Murphy is
New Yorker known all over Europe as
"Cornmear Murphy for his devotion
to the tasseled stalk. John Mates is a
brewer and for six years was state
senator Of Nebraska. They go with
congressional appropriation of $40, 900 to
spend the coming fiscal year and
broader mission than that of Colonel
Murphy In the past.
Secretary Morton proposes to graft on
the corn scheme started by Uncle Jerry
Rusk numerous other useful agricultur-
al shoots. The time is approaching when
America can no longer sit back at her
ease as the granary whence all Europe
must inevitably come, to supplement its
food supplies, but must push into the
marts of commerce and there proclaim
that it not only can supply flour, wheat,
corn, oats, rye, pork, beef and other
breadstuffs and provisions of the indis.
pensable sort better and cheaper than
can other countries, but can furnish
wines, tobacco and other luxuries in COM
petition with the nations Of the European
continent.
The two men selected for this mission
airy work are specially qualified for the
service. Colonel Murphy needs no in
PRODUCTION. John Mates, though he has
been here for years, was born in Ger
many, speaks the language fuently and
as a brewer has technical knowledge
that should avail something with Euro
pean brewers and dealers.
The corn propaganda will be contin-
ued energetically, and Mr.. Mates will
supplement Colonel Murphy's efforts to
introduce it into European diet by en-
deavoring to get European brewers to
follow the example of American brewers
and use it in beermaking.
Tobacco, meats, preserved fruits and
wines are the new staples which will be
specially under their wing. They are to
ascertain if there be any laws or Gus
toms which restrict the expectation of
these articles, why things are thus and
what can be done to foster American
trade.
Germany, as an illustration, has re-
moved its prohibition on American pork,
but the expectations have not increased,
as had been expected. There is belief
that the 10 years government prohibition
not unnaturally may have resulted in a
prejudice on the part of German people
against American pork. This prejudice
will be counteracted as far as possible.
Then there is also suspicion that while
national restrictions have been removed

Most of the Democratic leaders have
now given in their adhesion to all the
Reed rules except one, that for counting
quorum; and there are abundant signs
that one of the first acts of the special
session will be to adopt them. Of course
there will be some variation of form. in
order that the gentlemen who yelled
tyranny in Mr.. Reeds Congress may
be able to cover up their discontinue.
but the substance will be there. If the
quorum rule is not adopted it will be sim
ply because the Democrats have such an
overwhelming majority that it will not
be necessary. As compared with the
other rules twas the most justifiable
both i'll law and common sense of any of
them. Some plausible objection might
be made to a rule that shuts off debate,
but nothing plausible even can be urged
against rule that prevents members of
the House from defeating the purpose
for which it exists by false pretense.
The quorum rule provided, simply, as
the Boston Transcript well says, "that
when member was present in the hall
of the House of Representatives he
should be counted in the number neces-
sary for quorum whether he answered
to the call of the roll or not 1t dis
avowed the legal fiction that Congress
mans corporal entity was anywhere
else than where he was. It prevented
Congressman from playing with or over
riding the rules, which are meant not so
much to protract debate as to preserve
deeorum and order in the proceedings of
either branch of Congress, and thereby
assist in adopting such measures as the
public needs require" 1t is only neces-
sary to state the rule to Justify it in the
