Marshalltown, Iowa, June g. l9o3-
Editor Times Republican: AT the
council meeting last night, | am told,
Councilman Greene charged that the
friends of the Interurban Railway
Company did not dare to have its fran
chse ordinance published for the rea-
son it feared to let the people Know
what such terms and conditions are. So
Mr. Greene moved that the city publish
it, for the information of the people.
We accept Mr.. Greene's challenge ana
will reimburse the city for the puhica-
ton of the ordinance in the Times
Republican today and in the Reflector
next Saturday. The directors of the
Interurban Railway Company had al
ready determined to publish this ordi-
rance in the local press before the cleo
ton and the undersigned had been so
instructed before this council meeting
was ever held.
We believe that our PLANS and pur-
poses as to the Interurban railway are
honest, straightforward and for the in
terest of Marshalltown, and we invite
criticism and discussion
in the press or public meeting. and we
hold ourselves ready at all times to
meet all citizens on the business merits
of the Interurban railway. II the In
terurban railway can't stand such in
vestigation and discussion, let it go
down. j. Nj. PARKER,
Attorney for Interurtan Railway.

had met every requirement of pure
water supply. DR.. Hoffman had pre-
viously explained how difficult it was
to detect fever germs in a water supply
when their life in running water was so
short He called the boards attention
to the examination of sewage, after
having passed thru the disposal plant
at the state college, and said that the
water taken from some Of the wells in
the, city did not prove to be as good as
that substance from the sewers, after
being purified, which no one would ever
think Of drinking. One dairyman whose
premises were visited, was found to
have we'll into which the barnyard
drained.
DR.. Getz's Views.
DR.. II. l.. Getz. who was spectator
at the meeting, was called upon by the
board for remarks and suggestions and
stated that he could heartily support
everything that DR.. Hoffman had said.
He said that for years he had been adj
vising his patients never TO use water
from shallow wells without first boil
ing. If they would not boil the water
he had always advised the use of the
city water in preference. He made
very excellent sugges ton to the effect
that the city condemn the use of shall
low wells, and insist on driven wells;
also to prevent other surface wells
from being dug.
The health and sanitation committee
was authorized by the board to carry
out the suggestions made by DR.. Hoff-
man to the best of its Judgment. The
matter of establishing a crematory for
the destruction of all refuse was dis
cussed informally, a proposition hav-
ing been made to Mayor Jones from
Vincennes, Ind, concern, offering to
build one for a stated payment per
annum, for the service of collecting and
disposing of all the city's garbage.

THE RANKIN MEETINGS.
State Marshal Movement Attracting
Considerable Interest in the City.

state MdFSnd} MONSFHoVS Nss' oSs''S
Considerable interest in the City.
The state marshal Sement, which
is being promoted in the' state by Hon.
A c. Rankin, of Pennsylvania, is at
tracing considerable interest in the
city and the Monday night meeting met
with a very good attendance. Mr.. Ran
k:n's address was closed amid cheers,
showing the general effect of his adj
dress on 1.-The Secret of the Rum Traf-
fic's Power"
Mr. Rankin is not a third party pro-
hibitionist, but rather a staunch repub-
lican. He is constitutional prohibi-
ZIONIST in every sense of the word, and
while believer in the principles of
prohibition, is not Of the class which
wants to carry the movement into poll
ties.
Mr. Rankin said in the course Of his
remarks Monday night that two OF the
greatest forces that control human
lives and hearts are yoked together
with what is called the rum evil. An
avaricious greed for money on the part
of the seller of liquor IS always no.
ticeable, together with the appetite for
drink on the part of the consumer. The
Bible teaches that the love of money
is the root of all evil. The men who
conduct saloons are not in the business
for the especial love they may have for
the business. 1t is a question of money
and men will do anything, from theft to
murder, for money. The sacrifices men
make of their business. their happiness,
self-respect and families to crafty
their appetites for liquor evidence the
power and influence the appetftes have
over the individuals.
He enlarged on his theme by setting
forth facts and logic to substantiate
his position. and closed by raising the
question: Whence come the drunk
ards 2" He said that in his seventeen
years experience he could count on one
hand all the real drunkiards he had ever
met who started to drink after they
We're of age. The rule IS that all start
when boys and young men. He COM
mended the Catholic church for its
effort to commit the boys to total alb
stinence until they were 81 years of
age. Vivid pictures were drawn of the
capture Of the boys during the danger
Gus period OF life. between IL and is
years of age. while unsuspectingly the
appetite for drink was being formed. He
sought to make this dangerous part of
life's highway for the american boys
the object of a general sacrifice on the
part of the best men and women of the
land in order to prevent 1t.
Mr.. Rankin's subject tonight will be
Looking at the Business" and he says
he is going to take the lid off the BUSH
ness.

CHARGES BRIBE OFFER
MEMBER OF NATIONAL HOUSE
DECLARES THAT He WAS
TENDERED $1,000
New York Representative Says Vote
for Submarine Boats Was
Sought.

Washington, Jan. 22-The charge
that an attempt has been made to
bribe a member of the house of repre-
sentatives has been made public and
an official inquiry into the matter is
likely to be mad. A subcommittee OF
the house on naval affairs is investi-
eating the allegation that Representa-
tive Lessler of New York, one of the
members Of the naval committee, was
approached with bribe of $4,000 for
his support of proposition looking
to an appropriation for an additional
submarine boats with view to as
certaining whether there Is sufficient
warrant for the house to order regu'
lar investigation of the matter.
The sensational charge was made by
Mr.. Lessler himself at meeting OF
the naval affairs committee. The ques-
ton of the Holland torpedo boats was
up, and Mr. Lessler, who was opposing
the authorization of additional boats,
told the committee that he had been
approached with a bribe.
His statement startled the commit
tee, and several members, among them
Mr.. Butler Of Pennsylvania and Mr.
Roberts of Massachusetts, Immediately
suggested that SO serious a charge
should be investigated Immediately.
After some discussion Mr.. Wheeler
of Kentucky offered resolution,
which was adopted, to appoint sub
committee to investigate at once and
report to the full committee.
The following subcommittee was
appointed: Mr.. Foss (Republican) Illi
nois. chairman Of the naval commit
tee; Mr. Butler (Republican), Penn
sylvania; Mr.. Taylor (Republican),
Ohio; Mr. Wheeler (Den:0craD, Ken
lucky. and Mr.. Riyley DemocraD, Vir-
ginia
The subcommittee forthwith enter
ed on its work, and heard Mr. Lesslers s
complete story.
The subcommittee will summon 9TH
er Witnesses. Their proceedings are
secret, and the members of both the
full! and sugcommittees have bound
themselves not to speak of the matter
pending the report of the subcommit-
tee. How definite and specific Mr.. Les
slef's charge is therefore. is net

ELECTRICITY AS A PURIFIER.
California Doctor Has a New Theory
of Lungs and Blood.

San Francisco, Cal, Jan. 22.-Dr.
Albert j. Atkins, lecturer on principles
Of medicine at the California Medical
college, in q recent paper read before
the San Francisco County Society of
Physicians and Surgeons claims that
it is electricity, not oxygen, which puri-
fies the blod in the lungs.
Dr. Atkins says that no oxygen poss-
es through the membrane of the air
cells of the lungs into the blood; also
that the air cells secret carbon. He
has discovered that the action which
takes place in the lungs in breathing
is electrical
The nitrogen and oxygen of the air,
coming in contact with the secreted
carbon, cause combustion, which gen.
crates electric currents. These pass
through the membranes Of the air
cells into the blood, changing it from
venous to arterial and also causing the
rhythmic action Of the heart, thus
showing the lungs to be the important
center of life.
The theory advanced by DR.. Atkins
is that the oxygen in the system comes
from the fod we eat and the water we
drink and must be refined by the pro-
cess of digestion before it can appear
in solution and enter the blood He
claims that a certain percentage OF
| the oxygen OF the air Is consumed by
| tre chemical action taking place in the
sir cells during the breathing. The re-
| fuse OF the process is exhaled as car
don dioxide.
Further experiments made by him
show that the resistance Of the human
| system is so. much greater than the
pressure OF the atmosphere that it
would be impossible for osmose of a
gas to take place under such condi-
tions. Other experiments show that
venous blood can be changed in color
to that OF arterial blood by the use
of 9alyanic electricity.
