though beaten badly in Juab county,
the Democrats have nothing to regret.
! They went into the campaign against
great odds. and they all fought nobly.
Nothing was not done legitimately
that would help the cause of Democ-
racy.
One side had to go down in defeat.
and the Democratic party was the one
selected by the people. No better words
can fit the feelings of the Democrats
in this region than those uttered by

The Republicans captured the state
SENATOR representative and district

for the interest of the whole state. es-
pecially the district from which they
were elected.
Mr.. James P. Driscol, the Republican
state Senator-elect, is a man of excel
lent qualities. He is a great favorite
among the people of Eureka, as his
vote shows. He received over two
votes to his opponents one in Eureka.
He was the postmaster under Harri-
sons administration, and through the
six years he served the people, he
never tired of accommodating them.
His integrity is unquestionable; his
character unapproachable.

no better selection could have been
made.

MEDICAL PROGRESS.
Immense Advance Has Been Made
Within the Last Fifty Years.

In no vocation has there been a more
rapid advance than in medicine during
the last half century, and it is significant
that the major part of this advance has
been due, not to the observation and eX-
perience of the routine practitioner, but to
the researches of scientific men who have
work the results OF scholastic training
entirely foreign to the scope of inStruc-
ton in medical schools a generation ago.
What. for example, could seem further
removed from the domain of practical
surgery than the investigation of little
moving plants that are found in decom-
posing animal and vegetable matter? Yet
the study of the habits or growth of these
microscopic weeds of the soils on which
they thrive and the poisons which pre-
vent their development, has revolution,
lied surgery, and has almost banished
from the operating room the fear of
suppuration, of gangrene, of erysipelas,
and other forms of blood poisoning. The
germs in the production of these unto
ward results of surgical interference and
the development of antiseptic methods
Of surgery have rendered ii possible TO
operate on the brain. spinal cord, stom-
ach, intestineS and other abdominal and
pelvic viscera, and even the heart.
Fourteen years ago the best medical
and surgical skill could not save the La

are now restored to health by operations
attended by an average mortality OF
about per cent, whereas the same oper-
atoms undertaken without antiseptic pre-
cautions would result in the death of
nine-tenths OF the victims. Thanks to
the enforcement of rules of health based
on the same study of bacteriology, we no
longer witness the devastation Of such

years ago. while for the first time in
medical history cholera has been checked
in its onward march to the west.
\ very gratifying tendency has marked
the. development of the medical profsS-
sion in the last generation. The slough
of mannerisms, the formal dress, the OWL
like solemnity have been thrown off, and
the physician, by his own choice. is being
Judged more by his actual attachments
than by external appearances. Thirty
years ago a bald head, a. white beard
and long frock coat were as much a
part of the physicians equipment as his

methods of practice. to lose a patient
through the fear that ne may not be
fully abreast of the times. What can be
further from the old traditions than a
leading surgeon lounging about in an
outing shirt and a blue belt or distin-
guished physician playing polo? Yet these
amusements are simply q relaxation from
the tension of professional study.-Lip-
