THE REPUBLICAN CHOICE.

Charles A. Bookwalter received the Re-
publican nomination for mayor by a de-
cisive majority of the aggregate vote OF
the primaries held yesterday in the pre-
cincts. The nomination is the result of a
Republican vote, cast directly by the voters
in primaries conducted impartially under
the forms of law. Even those who are dis
appointed at the result must admit a fair
vote and an honest count. The friends Of
both aspirants for the nomination did what
ever they could TO promote the interests of
their respective favorites. but Whatever was
done there was no packing of primaries
with men who had no right to vote. Con-
sequently it must be said at the outset that
the nomination was fairly made. In a can
vass il counts a great deal that the candi-
dates are fairly nominated.
Mr.. BookwaIter's qualifications for mayor
have been discussed for more than two
years. He is a man of positive character,
with executive capacity Of a high order.
Whatever enterprise he has undertaken in
this city has been well managed. He is
now engaged in a manufacturing enterprise
employing a considerable number of people
WHICH IL IL Eudlitidl SuCCcSS. Inc UullulHS
and loan association so largely under his
control for years was a w-ell-managed in
stitution. For several years Mr.. Book
walter has had an honorable ambition to be
mayo of indianapolis. He does not seek
the office because he has no other business
and wants employment, but because he be-
lieves that a man can make an honorable
reputation and win public respect by being
a good mayor. For several years he has
made a critical study of the administra-
ton of indianapolis. He knows all about
it, as will appear as the campaign proceeds.
Mr.. Bookwalter. nominated without a
convention, will have the advantage of
presenting his own platform. That he did
in part yesterday by posting at the voting
places a card in which he pledged himself
to give to the affairs of the city that care
full attention n business man gives TO his
own affairs" and that appointments to
public positions shall be made solely with
a view to the fitness of the persons APP
pointed. and that all the business affairs of
the city shall be managed in the interest
of the taxpayers"
That is platform enough; the Journal be-
lieves it is the purpose of Mr.. Bookwalter
TO make these pledges good. and that he
has the ability and the courage to do so.

KOCH ON TUBERCULOSIS
AN INTERESTOING y READ AT
THE BRITISH CONGRESS-.
German Doctor Would ~IsoInte All Con-
suIaptfves-Human and Bo-
vine Diseases Different.

LONDON, July "a feature of to-day's
session. of the British Congress on Tubercu-
losis was DIR. Robert Koch's paper, which
was listened to with the deepest Interest
by a big gathering III St. James Hall. Lord
Lister professor of surgery in the Glasgow
and Edinburg universities, and one of the
vice presidents of the congress) introduced
the noted German professor to the assembly
with a few very complimentary words.
During his address TO the congress DR..
Koch said his experiments had satisfied
him that human tuberculosis and bovine
tuberculosis were radically different dis
eases and that he had amply demonstrated
cattle could not be infected with human
tuberculosis. The counter proposition that
human beings were not liable TO infection
from bovine tuberculosis was hard to prove.
the doctor said, owing to the difficulty of
experimenting on human subjects, but that
personally he was satisfied such was the
case. DR.. Koch said If this point was con-
ceded il remained to determine the chief
source of contagion. He said that human
immunity to bovine infection disposed Of
the belief of infection through dairy pro-
ducts and he considered this source of
danger so Slight as to be unworthy of pre-
caution. Heredity was also an unimportant
factor in the of tuberculosis,
though the contrary had long been believed
DR.. Koch said the chief danger of con-
tagion lay in the sputum of consumptive
patients and that a remedy was to be found
in a law preventing the consumptive from
sowing cOntagion about him Several
methods to this end were available, said
the doctor, the surest being isolation in
sanitariums. This, unfortunately was i'm
practicable. but he strongly urged the es-
tablishment of special c~onsumptive hos
pitfalls and the obligatory notification of the
authorities of the existence of the disease,
the disinfection of their quarters when
ever c-onsumptives changed residence and
the dissemination of formati to the
people concerning the true nature of con-
sumption to aid in avoiding and combat
ting 1t.
DR.. Koch highly complimented DR.. Her
mann NJ. Biggs (pathologist and director of
the meteorological laboTs of the New
York city health Department. upon the
repressive measures concerning tuberculo-
sis taken in New York city, where. he said,
the mortality from tuberculosis had been
reduced 80 per cent. since 1856 and recon-
mended the system organized by DR.. Biggs
in New York to the study and imitation of
all municipalities. DR.. Koch closed his re-
marks expressing his belief that illuminate
tamping out of tuberculosis was possible.

publics and the rowing ruffians.' harrow

The fact that the gilt-edged bonds of

The United States issued 500. 600. coo in 1898.
Large European public loans, paying 3s
per cent. have been offered and sold in

LONDON, July 23.-Much gossip in Amer
lean and English society has been caused
by the presentation TO King Edward yes
terday by some American women OF the
hospital ship Maine committee OF a medal
ommemorativ OF the Names work, with
a request that the king transmit the medal
TO Queen Alexandra. IL seems that the
idea was opposed by a number OF infu-
entail members Of the committee on the
ground that the King did not want the
medal, but the others carried the day.
Kings reply 10 the delegation which
made the presentation is causing some
comment, as he thanked the American
committee" for their loyal. dutiful sent-
ments," as he did the Kansas Legislature
in answering their telegram Of coincidence

ECONOMY IN PHILIPPINES.
Much Money Saved by Reduction of
the Transport Service.

MANILA, July 23.-The reports submit
ted to Adjutant General Corbin by Major
James B. Aleshire. in charge of the water
transportation department of the army
at Manila, show the saving of $1,000 daily
for the last three months. Since Major
Aleshire took charge of this department
the number of vessels chartered by the
government as Transports, etc. has been
reduced from ten to five, and the lighters
and launches chartered by the government
have been reduced one-half. The con-
centration of the American troops at Ma
Mia, Dagupan, IloilO or Cebu will further
reduce the army's need of launches. II
Is expected, in view of this economy, to
operate some transports direct between
Manila and New York. Adjutant General
Corbin recommends the use of two of
the fastest transports in a monthly mail
service between San Francisco and Manila
to insure quick handling of the mails.
