Malaria Disappearing.

DR.. James A. Steuart, secretary of the State
board of health. makes an excellent showing
in his quarterly reports as to the health of
the State, and says he regrets that the vital
statistics of the whole State cannot be obtain
ed, Us they would, he thinks, prove the best
advertisement OF the state that could be pub
lished. Maryland he says, lis uEdoubt
eddy blessed with one of the most salubrious
and healthul climates to be found on this
continent. 1t requires very many years to
overcome bad reputation, and that which
has been given to all that part of the State
bordering on the Chesapeake bay during the
last century in regard to the prevalence OF
malarial diseases remains in the minds of
thousands of people, both within and without
the State, Notwithstanding that it has nearly
disappeared in that portion of the State
where it once prevailed" DR.. Steuart is OF
the opinion that the disappearance of malaria
is due to the use OF better drinking water.

THAT PETITION.

The petition asking the commits
sioners of Bowie county to order an
election to test the law on the sub
division loorhOle found in the acts,
defining the law on the subject OF
Prohibition, has been signed by the
requisite number Of qualified voters,
but VIC learn that 1t stands a good
chance to be pigeon.holed, and the
commissioners never be wanted to
decide whether the pint is well
made or not. All Of this comes
from the fact that the lawyers who
set the trap are waiting for 1t to be
baited, or in other words they say,
boys, we have a good thing, we

sure 'scorcher,' stlcker from the

furnish the bait, and give us grub,
that we may fatten on during the

the present time the boys have not
furnished the bait and as there are
only twoor three of the whlskey
men now here in business, and they
are not very well healed with bait
to satisfy a hungry and longing
lawyer, It is safe to say that the
