HOG CHOLERA.
necessary Precautions to. Prevent
Its Spread,

Necesary precautions to, Prevent
Its Spread
we nave all summer long, from time
10 Tune, warned our readers against
the practice of keeping hog cholera
germs in stock. OF course, no one does
his Intentionally; nevertheless ii is
done as effectively as though it was
aone "on purpose" where farmers al
low old straw stacks, manure piles or
brush heaps to remain, around which
cholera hogs have lain during past
cholera seasons. The frequent rains
this summer will favor the retention of
these germs in all such places.
Vicious as is the practice of keepinc
cholefa germs in stock, that of dis
tributing them when an outbreak has
occurred is still more vicious. We are
now approaching the state fair season.
ana we may look for a spread of hog
choiera through this means, and breed
ers cannot be O careful in their meth
OF shipping their hogs to and from
iairs. D~lsinfectants are cheap, and no
man should undertake TO ship hogs un-
less ne has thoroughly disinfected the
cars IN which the shipment is made.
MAN. breeders prefer shipping their
hogs TO fairs loose in the cars rather
IMAM In crates for the reason that the
hogs rest better, are not nearly so tired
ana show TO better advantage. In this
case 1t is not difficult to thoroughly
scrub the floors and sides of the cars
win a disinfectant, and thus effectual-
~ XIII all germs. The crate can be
carried on a rack above the hog in the
car and thus be ready for use in NOV
Ing IL from the car to the fair grounds.
ms disinfection Is made necessary
by the fact that cars used TO ship hogs
10 fairs are used to ship hogs to mar
ket, and one sick hog on a journey may
thoroughly infect the entire car and
render d~isinfection absolutely neces-
sary. We do not know of n greater
service that the department OF agricul-
ture could do to farmers than to issue
an order, and enforce it, requiring
every ear in which hogs or sheep. and
even cattle, have been carried. TO he
thoroughly disinfected before using 1t
again.
Another frequent source of infection
is the annual sales of hogs. The herd
is likely TO he infected by the great in
u of visitors from wide sections
whose herds have had the cholera. The
germ is more likely TO be carried on
their boots than any other way. When
a herd infected, in which the disease
has not become apparent, is dispersed,
it almost invariably starts the disease
In many widely separated herds. and
the result. as seen in the experiences
or armer last year, is most disas-
!rous. Too great care cannot be taken
TO limit the ravages of hog cholera to
as small sections of country as possible
this year.-Wallaca's Farmer.

If you can't breed EN- without horns
take the horns off after breeding.

any way the hogs like it-cooked or

There was an unusually large attendance
at the meeting OF District Assembly, No.
66, held last evening, at Plasterers' Hall.
For the last few days It was under
stood that there would be some interest
ing developments and in this no one was
disappointed. A letter was received from
General Secretary Hayes, stating that AS
sembly No. 66 woUlu be entitled to only
one Instead OF two delegates in the gen.
erai Convention, which will convene at
Rochester.
One OF the officers stated AFTER the meet
ing that if Secretary Hayes had referred to
facts which govern the representation OF
Assembly No. 90 In the general assembly y
he would have found that the local as
sembly paid per capita tax Tor membership
nearly large enough to entitle IL TO three
delegates.
The mere fact, lie said, that Secretary
Hayes says the assembly Is entitled to
only one delegate does not settle the
matter. Two delegates have been elected
on basis OF membership and there is no
doubt whatever but they will go to Roehes-
ter and make a fight for their right be-
fore the national body.
Secretary Clements was instructed to
write Chairman Kalbfus, OF the central
Democratic conmittee, and ask that the

Iiass meeting here on the 10th be changed

CHAIRMAN HOLT REsIG Ms.

Opposed to Free Silver.


indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 10.-The Demo

leanings brought about breach between

other silver leaders held a preliminary
conference in the corridors while Holt and
his friends met few feet away in the
writing room. The bitterness bet
the factions was plainly 10 be seen. some of
them who had been friends for years de
cliDing to even recognize one another.
The Committee NE. Shortly ai,er the ap-
pointed time. Chairman Holt made a
brief speech, thanking the members for
their loyalty and friendship and then
handed his letter ofresignation to Secretary
Wallace. 1t reads:
ITO the Democratic State Central Com
mitlee:
II hereby tender my resignation as chair
man of the committee, to take effect forth
with.
II have reached the conclusion that 1t is
my duty TO pursue this course. l was
chosen TO the position l now resign about
eight months ago. Since the adjournment
of the Chicago convention l have been the
object of unjust criticism and uncalled for
suspicion.
Nor has this criticism and suspicion
been confined to ME, but it has been ex-
tended to all the members Of the com
niittee andof the executive committee, who
heretofore have opposed the free coinage of
silver This unrenitting fault finding
has so handicapped and crippled the COM
nittee as almost To disqualify ii from doing
efficient work.
Personally, during my whole political
career, have been opposed TO the doctrine
involved in the free coinage of silver, yet
I did not see in this fact satisfactory
reason for quitting the regular organiza-
ton of the party, and / have so stated:
nevertheless, in view of the condition of
affairs I have above indicated, l feel
that owe IL To myself as man, and to
you as a committee, to step down and out.
