DRIVE OUT ENGLISH BOOKS
American Medical Warks Are Use,
i'm England.

New York, April 13.-American COM
petition extends even to the dry field of
medical literature says the Tribune S
London correspondent. Within two or
three years American books on diseases
of children, pathology, surgery and medi-
cine have largely displaced in England
similar works by English specialists.
English sales of works by American
medical writer's have steadily increased
owing partly to the superiority of their
mechanical processes of Illustration.
Medical literature in England is in a fair
way to become thoroughly Americanized,
owing to the enterprise and scientific in
vestigations of the specialists Of Philadel-
phia, Baltimore and other cities.

The eleventh of June seems to be

good ones thrown in. and dark

add spice and uncertainty to a good
race For some years now there have
been no good horses entered, and each
year witnesses less sport and more
gambiing-most races being by horses
owned by japanese. Two years ago an
attempt was made to stop racing, but
an appeal to higher authority was
made, and Deputy Sheriff Overend
oyerruled. He, however, kept things
fairly quiet, by locking up about thirty
persons, quite few who We're whites,
and who were very much offended
when they came to their senses and
realized their predicament.
This year was far the worst we have
ever had to put up with. The new
deputy sheriff had been sworn in on
Saturday, and with the ink scarcely dry
on his oath-promising to enforce the
law without fear or fayor-he stood by
and allowed the whole day to be spent

ONCE year. on the occasion of it's annual meeting, the religious people, who receive some strange impressions from incorporate sources, are agree ably surprised to be told that there is a congressional temperance society, says the the Globe-DemOcrat. They learn that the organization is not only very much alive, but that it has had a continuous and useful existence for seventy-four years. The society is the oldest of the character in the country. It has had on its rolls presidents, sena- tors, representatives and justices of the supreme court. The present mem- bership is about forty. To what extent transformation exists regarding moral habits of public men may be judged by the frank declaration of Dr. Hathaway, the general secretary of the Interde. nominational American Sabbath Union, that he never knew until this week that there was such an organization as the Congressional Temperance Society. At the annual meeting of the society the leading members testified to the belief "there was never a time when there was so little drinking among sen atOrs and representatives"

ANOTHER bullion tax bill has been introduced in the legislature. A simi- lar bill was defeated few weeks ago.

THROUGH the consumption of time in the closing hours Senator Carter talked the river and harbOr bill out of a date and to death. Ostensibly inter- ested in the irrigation amendments, which occasioned the final disagree ment of the conferees, the senator from Montana got the floor and held it for thirteen hours, until the congress was no more. This is the only regular ap- prOpriatiOn that failed in session of bargains and deals the important legis- latiop that avoided an extra session. It is a saving to the government of $5O,. 100000, and in that respect it is viewed with equanirnity by those who have been apprehensive that the war tax reduction bill, IS amended by the sen. ate, might have overshOt the mark in .legislating for balance between the receipts and expenditures in the com ing fiscal year.

 Arizona to be benefited by fuel oil must obtain supply within the terri. tory. Freight rates on oil from Cali fOrnia points make it's cost greater than coal.

 From what we have learned of the bill introduced by Dr. Ford in the council for the regulation of building and loan associations we believe it will commend itself to all who are interested in those useful institutions.
