The DEMOCRAT hardly misses

The DEMOCRAT hardly misses
q week that it does not turn
away patent medicine advertis-
ments. Not because we do not
want business, but because we
have made a rule to treat all
advertisers alike make the same
rate to all. Such wealthy patent
medicine corporations as the
proprietors of Chamberlain,
Boshee's, Beggs' and Others will
not pay more than l to IL cents
a line for local advertising in the
choicest positions, and they pay
quarterly, semi-annually or
yearly and are more bother than
any other class of advertising.
Years ago, before we thought of
the injustice of making a favored
class of these people, we con-
tracted with them; but never
made a contract but we regret
ted it before the time was up.
Our contention is, that no cOun-
try newspaper can make such
rates on advertising and live;
and that if there are any adver-
tisers who should be given a
lower rate than others they are
the home people. We ask our
local advertisers to compare
our columns with those of the
three other papers in this city,
each of which is carrying the pat
emit medicine ads. at a LOWER
rate than they charge the home
advertiser. Simple justice de-
mands that the home people be
treated as literally, at least, as
the foreign advertiser. We might
earn $50 to $75 a year more by
filing our local columns with
pile-cure squibs-but we will not
And we believe that our local
merchants more than make uE
that apparent loss in the addi
tional advertising they place
with a paper that treats then
fairly.

than a bakers dozen of republi-
can voters in Cheyenne township

however, in his contention, with
the exception possibly of few
other sorely defeated local re-
publicans who have been knock
ed silly by the Cheyenne demo-
cratic majority. The Register
man knows-and everybody else
knows-that the elections in
Cheyenne township are conduct
ed 10 per cent. more straight
and honorable than in republi-
can Great Bend. We cannot
conceive of what the Register ex-
poets to gain by maligning hon.

thing crooked in the the election he
would not have cared; but. he says
that during the six or eight years that
he has served as trustee there never
was . fairer, cleaner election In that
township than in 1900. It makes
Anton mad to think that on the lone
testimony of hired renegade.
which he denounces as pack of lies,
the vote of the township should be
thrown out. He says that this year. if
there has to be more than two republi~
cans on the Cheyenne election board
he will have to rope Texas steer and
put him In % clerk or judge. Probably

LEpRolgY I'M THE PHILIPPINES

After the United States Government
has restored order in the Philippines
one OF the serious problems which
will confront It will be what to do with
the lepers It has come into possession
of as a result of the war with Spain.
Marine Hospital Surgeon Perry. chief
quarantine officer for the islands, has
advised dur government that the num-
Der of lepers cannot be less than 90
600. and ,that in Cebu alone there are
1000. The majority Of the cases are
lin the rural districts. The military au-
thorities have been attempting to deal
with the matter. but with poor success,
In Manila aud Its neighborhood the
lepers are cOnfired in a hospital, the
Marine Board of Health having them
lin charge, and, a leper hospital also has
been established i'm Cebu. Orders have
been issued for a hospital in each dis.
trict. and a board OF officers is investi.
eating several islands with the view OF
selecting one for leper colony, the
purpose being TO deport all the lepers
from the other islands to that place.
The work Of ferroting out the cases
viii require several years. and when il
is completed we shall have the dis
tressing spectacle of an island con-
tanning a population of 10000, and
every man, woman and child on it a
victim Of this terrible and loathsomr
disease with which medical sc.encC
cannot cope. But the ultimate effect ol
this segregation and isolation will be
that leprosy will be eradicated in the
other islands OF the immense archi-
pelago.
