The Cure and Prevention of Disease.


After many years of study, reflection
and observation, supplemented by per-
Sonal experience of no ordinary char
acter, the Rev. A. NJ. Sherman, of this
city, is prepared to scientifically dem
onstrate that disease can be cured and
prevented without the use of drugs
and medicines, by simply removing OBJ
structions, and giving Nature free
hand for the performance of her work.
He has, therefore, in preparation an
address, which he purposes delivering
in some suitable place in Morristown
in the near future, on Natures
Method for the Cure and Prevention
of Disease Without the Use of Drugs
and Medicines"
The alcoholic appetite, of which so
many are the victims, being a disease,
MI Sherman is prepared to offer rad
ical and permanent cure for it, with
out the use of drugs or medicines: and.
reasoning from this latter fact, he will
show that the temperance reform of
the future will be conducted along ma
terially different lines than those of
the past and present. Temperance re-
form in the past has dealt primarily
and chiefly with symptoms; that of
the future will deal primarily and
chiefly with causes. In other words,
the temperance reform of the past has
directed its attack primarily and chief
ly against the dealer in alcoholics, and
dismal failure, comparatively, has been
the result. The effort of the future
will be primarily and chiefly in per-
suading the victims of the alcoholic
appetite to accept the available cure
for the disease; and those who will
not voluntarily accept this cure will
by laws that will soon be enacted, be
confined in hospitals where they will
be scientifically treated. Mr.. Sherman
has also in preparation, therefore, an
address on "The Twentieth Century
Temperance Reform for future de-
livery. In this address he will demon
strate that, on the principle that ''The
Demand Creates the Supply" just
in proportion as the victims Of the al
coholic appetite are voluntarily or by
legal cOmpulSion cured of the disease
will the dealers in alcoholics have no
further occupation in that line.

ton pays its tribute to the valor OF
those who fought to keep the old
flag clean, it is fitting that every
spark of patriotism now burning
within us should be kept at white
heat until Flag Day" has passed,
The American public, especially IN
cities, pays too little attention TO
the flag, possibly because they see
it so often, possibly because the
pursuit of wealth and the passing
of time lessons the manifestations
of the sense of patriotism. The use
of the flags in the schools IS do
ing a great deal to nurture proper
respect, if not love for it, that will
make better and more patriotic citi-
zens later on.
The use of the flag in many Of
the schools is a mere formality.
Comparatively few of the schools
have the salute to the colors IN the
assembly room. and none have any
formality about raising the flag
or lowering it.
Every school should have two
flags, a small Service" flag, that
should float every day, and a large
banner for national and State days.
In these times, on flag days, " the
big flag should be sent up in stops
and broken out at fixed time. while
the school stood and watched. There
is not a school in the land where
the pupils could stand in line watch
ing the little bundle rise to the top
of the staff and wait for a specified
minute to see the 'big flag" spread
out on the breeze as the down-haul
ballard was pulled, without burst
ing out in a spontaneous cheer.

Ex-senator Butler, of North

national chairman of the Populist
party, declares that while the
Populists see much to admire in
President Roosevelt's course and
policy, they will not support him
next year but will run a candidate
of their own. Roosevelt is in luck
again if this turns out to be the
case. Populist support hoodoos
every man to whom it is given and
puts the Presidency out of his

An Exciting incident During
the Naval Review.
COMES JUST AT THECLOSt
The President is inspecting the Great War
Fleet When the Destroyer Barry Dashes
Into The Decatur, Fortunately
Doing Little Damage.
(By the Associated Press }

Oyster Bay, L. L., August 17.-For the
first time in the history of the country
the President of the United States today
reviewed and inspected, in time of peace.
q great fleet of United States warships.
The ceremony was magnificent and i'm
pressive naval spectacle 1t was unmarried
by the slightest mishap until just at its
conclusion, when the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Barry rammed the destroyer De-
catur fortunately, however, doing little
damage.
The incident was exciting. It occurred
just at the moment when the President
was receiving congratulations upon the
success of the manouevers.
The first squadron of destroyers consist
lng OF the Decatur, aBinbridge, Barry
Dale and Chauncey, all under command
OF Lieutenant l.. H. Chandler was ap-
preaching the Mayflower at full speed.
The vessels were in close formation
Orders were signalled from the Deca-
tur to the other vessels to form a wedge
In executing the orders, the Decatur
swung across the bow of the Barry. An
instant later the Barry -ammed her on
the starboard side AS the ships were
running at a speed of twenty knots, the
blow was tremendous. The Decatur
listed sharply to port and seemed to be
il serious distress. From the Mayflower
she appeared 10 be sinking.
The Mayfower's boats were manned in
stantly but were not lowered, as the De
eatur was seen to right herself. In a
few minutes she hoisted a signal of
mo damage" Later she steamed along
side the Mayfower and Lieutenant Chand-
Ter reported that while his ship had
received a bad bump in the starboard
quarter she was not materially dam
aged.

STRONG FOR B.R.LACY
For Chief of the Brotherhood
of Engineers.
A Solid Southern Vote Assured With Great
Hopes in the Eastern and Western
Divisions.

The feeling that State Treasurer B. +.
Lacy is a most eligible man., and stands u
splendid chance of being elected Grand
Chief Engineer of the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Engineers, is growing among men
who know.
His name has been canvassed by his
friends throughout the Southern Division,
and wherever it is mentioned there is
great enthusiasm shown. So much is this
so that there seems to be a practical
welding together of the engineers of the
South for him, with big chances in other
divisions.
Yes" said one of a group of locomotive
engineers yesterday, who were talking OF
the matter, I'VE believe that Mr.. Lacy is
going to win in the election The death
of Grand Chief p NJ. Arthur, elected in
May, made a vacancy which is temporarily
filled. The election comes next May at our
meeting in Los Angeles, California, and
every effort will be made to elect him 10
the position
And we start in with solid lot of
votes for him" said another engineer.
There are $50 votes in the Southern Di-
visions and it is practically certain these
will be cast for Ben Lacy. The men on
the Seaboard, the Southern, the Atlantic
Coast Line, the Atlanta and West Point,
the Louisville and Nashville and other
roads are a unit for Lacy for Grand Chief s"
With $50 votes as a starter State
Treasurer Lacy will prove a formida pie
competitor to the other men mentioned
for this high position. There is in the
Brotherhood when it meets in annual ses-
sicn about 615 votes, and onequarter OF
these for candidate with a large number
IN the field is a strong argument for the
man from North Carolina.
The friends of Mr. Lacy calculate that
from the eastern and central roads of The
country he will receive a strong support
with some from the west. and the north
doubtful. Besides Mr.. Lacy, the four
prominent candidates are George w.
vrooman, of Nebraska; Herman Wills, OF
Iowa; W. H. Shay, of, Ohio, and the pres
ent incum bent who is from Iowa.
The head office of the Grand Chief is iii
Cleveland, Ohio. where he has a large
force of aids. said by some to be five as
sistants and a clerical force of from fifty
to seventy-five. The position is said 20
be salaried at $4,000 year.
Mr.. Lacy would make an ideal head for
the great order of which he is a member
He has been at the throttle and is a fine
engineer; he has mixed with men, and
he is popular man; he has held office,
and he is an admirable official, as the
Commissioner of Labor and Printing and
as the State Treasurer of North Carolina
he has shown remarkable energy, tact and
executive ability, which would tell were
he made the Grand Chief Engineer of the
Brotherhood.
He would fill the position for the good
of the men. He is cool, firm. level-headed.
He knows things and he does things. If
he IS the choice of the order no mistake
Will have been made.
