nary reach of flies, the disease can
become very prevalent only through
Infection of the source of public
water supply. Hence in villages and
camps typhoid is usually fy-borne
and in cities water-borne. When a
source of public water supply has
been infected cases of the disease
occur throughout the year." "When
the conveyance of the disease is by
flies the prevalence of the disease
will be confined to a particular sea-
son exclusively. Thus in cities
typhoid prevails at all seasons. In
villages it is an autumnal disease"
When the weather is dry and sultry
flies have their best opportunity to
carry the infection or, in other
words, under the very conditions
best adapted to prevent it's spread if
waterborne. :;
We cannot do better than state
his conclusion in the authors own
words: "No matter in what
manner conveyed, the spread of ty-
phoid fever is absolutely preventible.
Instant disinfection of typhoid stools
without moments delay solves the
whole problem. This being done,
there is nothing left for soil, air,
water or flies to carry" Instant
disinfection is an "absolute prevent
ive." AS regards the disinfectant to
be used, sulphate of copper is espe-
cially recommended, although there
are many others. The objection to
carbolic acid is that it is volatile,
leaving nothing to prevent reinfec-
tion. "The sulphate of copper re-
mains on evaporation of its solution,
so that its effects are very powerful
and lasting, the soil impregnated
with it also becoming good disin-
fectant."
"The important point in regard to
the whole matter is that with ade-
quate disinfection in every case ty-
phoid fever would become well-nigh
extinct in single year." "It is sur
prising how rapidly even a lively
epidemic, at the most unfavorable
season of the year, has been checked
by application of the methods that
have been suggested"
If DR.. Veeder is right in the con-
clusions he states 30 unqualifiedlv
the further important and impressive
conclusion may be fairly drawn from
them, of course, that any outbreak
of the disease, and certainly it's con-
tinuance, year after year, or its de-
velopment to epidemic proportions,
in any place, is directly and solely
chargeable to the neglect of the
local physicians, nurses and sanitary
authorities to employ the means for
it's prevention or suppression, which
is point that they may well con-
slider with the utmost care and con-

Theodore Ii. Price, cotton ex-
pert of New York, in an interview a
few days ago said: "I take this
means of answering hundreds of
telegraphic inquiries reaching from
all over the country in regard to the
cotton market. / think it entirely
probable that, before any effect upon
consumption is apparent cotton will
be selling at ten cents pound in
the South and doubt if the advance
will stop there. If producers of the
article are wise they will demand
and obtain that figure" There are
many other cotton experts through
out the country who agree with Mr..
Price, and are advising tho farmers
not to rush their cotton on the mar
ket.

Tape Worm Caused Death.

New York, September 12.--After per-
forming an autopsy on the body of
Rudolph Haller, laborer, coroner's 8
physician has decided that insanity from
which, Haller suffered and died, was
caused by q tape worm 60 feet long.
Haller's case puzzed the insanity ex-
ports at Bellevue. At times he would
fall in what appeared to be an epileptic
fit. AT other times he would apparently
be normal. The autopsy showed that
the tape worm had distended the organs
and caused such pressure on the tendons
and ligaments connected with the spinal
column and spinal cord that the brain
was affected.

ROOSEVELT ON TRUSTS.

President Roosevelt is in favor OF
surhing the trusts as Indicated by his
tate speeches. but he is also in favor OF
using the utmost precaution i'll dealing
With this question in order not TO dis
turb industrial and economic condi-
lions. In this lies the danger, as all can
readily see He would have an amend
ment to the constitution, if necessary,
providing for the control OF nonopoies,
wherever the need of such control is
shown. In his opinion it is idle TO say
there is no need Of supervision; q sutii-
Gent warrant for it is To be found over
and over again in amy of the various
evils resulting from the present system.
or lack of system. The problem is one
that CHALLENGES his profoundest study,
just as it does with other public mon.
Many of our statesmen believe that
these great combinations are the legiti-
mate result of lawful business develops
ment under present conditions, and III
order TO control them it would be nee
essary to change our form of govern
ment, ana, without desiring or intend
ing to do 50, assume the paternal or So
cissl form.
President Roosevelt believes we must
not expect too much, and he confesses
that he sees no promise of i complete
solution for all the problems we group
together when we speak of the trust
question. He realizes his responsibili-
ty as the head of the nation. and the
American people can rest assured that
he will favor no movement that would
preeipitate a crisis.

HE VERMONT CONTEST.

Vermont is having an exciting cleo
ton contes; this Year. ana as the pres
ent week closes the campaign there will
be a stirring canvass for the few days
remaining. The regular republican
nominee for the governorship is Gen.
John G. Mccullough, and contesting the
ground with him is Perciyal w. Glenn
ent, a boiling or independent candidate.
In addition to these the democratic cam
didate is seeking support. 1t is neees-
sary that the successful contestant
have :. majority vote, else the election
is thrown into the legislature. The
contest is therefore for the legislature
as We'll as the sovernorship. The cleo
ton 10 occur on Tuesday. Sept. > may
alter the political complexion of Yer
mont unless the republicans are active
enough To prevent it. The regular nom-
inee has the earnest support OF the par
ty leaders and a large share of the
voters. The two senators, Dillingham;
and Proctor and the two congressman,
and other prominent men are earnestly
uanvassing for Mccullough.
MANY of the democrats will vote for
Clement. They say a vote for the resu-
lar nominee is a vote thrown away,
and that ii Will he good politics to help
along the break in the republican par
ty by supporting Mr.. Clement. who ia
vors the repeal OF the prohibitory law,
action which the democrats, as a party.
have favored for years.
The out-and-out prohibitionists,
practically all of whom are republicans
on national questions. are also actively
engaged in the interest of the prohibi
zionist candidates for the legislature, in
order TO Kill off the movement TO have
The present prohibitory law repealed.
Gen. MCCULLOUGH stands midway be
tween prohibition and license. having
promised if elected governor, 10 APP
provs any measure on the subject the
legislature may pass. The most uncer-
tain element in the campaign is the
strength which Mr.. Clement will get
from the rank and file of the republican
voters. There is no Way of estimating
this. aud it is ON this that everybody
depends. For this reason intense local
and general interest has been aroused. !

TIE "KEG PARTY. .

A large freedom from the temnta-

Smaller towns and villages These
have no saloons. brothels or gambling
houses and there it is supposed that
hoys may be raised to manhood without
exposure to the multitudinous vices
which aillict the cities. Nevertheless
his is not always true as witness the
story of a travelling man who visited
among friends in an Iowa town which
shall be nameless. Said he: THE
afternoon and evening l was in --
friend asked me to go with him for
ment of one of the principal business
houses in the city only TO find that an
eight-gallon keg had been drained to
the last drop AS we went out an invi-
tation arrived to attend a two-kas par
ty in the basement of the most success

was a crowd of the leading business
men there when we arriled-lawyers,
bankers. doctors-all but the preachers
were represented. Those two kegs
.;lsted less than twenty minutes. That
avening my friend said: I owe the
boys key of beer; let's so over and
tap it, 1t was the same crowd over
again. That afternoon in there
was more beer guzzled than saloon
would have disposed of. and this was
informed was an average day in this
