mucous membranes of the man. This case
is specially interesting in the light of the
efforts recently made by the Superior Board
OF Health to secure legislation for the pro-
per restriction and in time absolute ex-
termination OF this disease. Our Legislators
found little time to attend to matters Of
public health but passed bill to pay the
sum OF $1,000 for glandered animals who
were destroyed. AS stated sometime ago in
this paper there was no discussion Of the
bill against glanders, but on the word of one
member against the opinion of several repu
table physicians the bill was defeated. Nel
ther has there been any discussion of bill
to pay damages to bereaved families for the
loss suffered by them through governmental
failure to properly protect the health of their
citizens.

ON A HENDERSON PLATFORM.
Tariff Don't Shelter Trusts in the
Third District.

Hampton Sept. 26.-The republican
congressional convention for the third
Iowa district which nominated former
Judge B. P. Birdsall of Clarion in place
of David B. Henderson, after declaring
unqualified allegiance to the Des
Moines platform objected to by Mr..
Henderson, gave the speaker a vote of
commentator and approval.
The resolutions adopted are emphat-
ic and direct on the subject of tariff
revision, and deny specifically that the
Dingley tariff breeds and shelters
trusts.
Text of the Resolutions.
The report of the committee on res
buttons as adopted by the convention
follows:
"Platform-We the representatives
of the republicans of the third con.
gressional district of Iowa, heartily en-,
dorse the platform of principleS5adopt
ed by the republican state convention
at Des Moines. We deny that the
Dingley tariff breeds and shelters
trusts. We interpret the tariff plank
in the Des Moines platform of 1902 to
be nearly a reiteration of and to mean
no more than the ST. Louis plank OF
1896, which recited:
I'VE are not pledged to any partic-
ular schedules. The question of rates
is a practical question, to be governed
by the conditions of times and of pro
duction. The ruling and uncompromis,
ing principle is the protection and de-
velopment of American labor and in
duestry.
Tributes are paid to both President
Roosevelt and Speaker Henderson.
