CONCERNING ANTIToxINE.

In view of tho sfrong differences OF
opinion among physfcfans1 and the laity
as to the advisability orr even safety
of the use of antitpxin in diptheria.
the report of the American Pedistree
society upon the subject, which has
just been made public will be well
coined, for it practically settles the
question.
The society sent out circular letters
in April asking for information on the
points of age and condition of patient,
duration of disease before first injec-
ton of serum. number, of injections. ex-
tent of diseased membrane, confirma-
ton Of the diagnosis by culture, and
results. T
Answers were received from 615 ply
sicians, their reports covering 3,62S
cases, of which the committee excluded
244 as confined to the tonsils. Besides
these reports. the committee availed it
self of collection of cases in New
York tenement houses made by DR..
Biggs and of large number of Chi
cago cases. The mortality in cases in
which the serum was injected during
the first three days was but 7.S per
cent. Excluding cases moribund at the
time of the first injection the mortal

These are the voters who want to be
organized into a party, call it what
you please, officer it how you may, but
holding the traditions that have
been handed down to us by the great
fathers Of Democracy, and who are
waiting today In little groups from
ocean to ocean for the sign of leader
ship and the word of command. They
will not be forever silenced. Not al
ways shall they be shut in to a choice
between unworthy motives. The fire of
patriotism is within their breasts, the
daring Of them who spring to lead to
forlorn hope, the devotion and the
self-sacrifice that are the glory and the
strength of this republic. From their
scattered and disunited cohorts there
comes up today the call for leaders
and an opportunity. The time has come
and the hour is ready for party of
self-sacrificing patriotism that shall
embody in it's creed the ripe fruits of
human experience and the high
thoughts of human aspiration, and that
shall be ready in triumph or in reverse
to lead this people up the glorious
pathway set ready for their feet in the
sight Of all the nations of the earth.
We do not believe that these men will
wait or ask in vain.
