A Topeka dispatch says the Kansas
State Live Stock Sanitary Commission
has expressed its complete satisfaction
with the quarantine against many cat
tie from Kansas which has been estab-
lished by the state of Colorado. "Col-
orado has done quite the proper thing"
said NJ. G. Campbell. chairman OF the
Kansas Commission. Under tho pres
ent conditions II has been quite i'm
possible for either state to starip out
the disease. as the ranchmen on both
sides of the line have been extremely
Indifferent TO the spread of the dis
ease or the matter OF dipping their cat
tie. With quarantine in both Kan
sas and Colorado. we hope to be able
TO stamp out the disease. as that is al
most sure to catch all OF them. We
expect TO have meeting soon with
the Colorado board In regard TO this
matter The two boards are working
in harmony in regard to the matter.
and the action of Colorado should not
be regarded In any sense as an act of
retaliation. Without such action as
has been taken by both boards. there
was danger of serious trouble from
this source, but with the corporation
of Colorado we hope to be able to
stamp out the disease this year, Dip
ping vats will be established all along
the line. both on the railroad and at
other points. and the regulations will
be strictly enforced
Floods resulting from the bursting
of storage reservoir dams built by ir-
rigation companies will be prevented
by the closest scrutiny of the work by
the state engineer or his deputy. The
state engineer has announced that the
law governing the construction OF res
ervoirs will be rigidly enforced here
after. Under the statutes not only
must the state engineer approve the
plans of all dams. but he must inspect
the work from time to time to see that
the proper materials are being used.
and that the specifications are being
followed. Many have misunderstood
the law as to the inspection of the
work, and reservoirs have therefore
been built without Official sanction.
Many persons have written to tho
state engineer informing him that
they fear dams In the section where
they reside are unsafe. and that there
is danger of floods. Professor Carpen-
tey says that attention will be given
to- make all of these safe.

of those best qualified to treat it. If a doctor has special training and abil- ity for the relief or cure of such dis eases, it is a serious query in morals whether he be justified in hiding his light under a bushel while he might ba helping or saving the afflicted. It is true that quacks and charlatans adver- tise, but one of the surest and most ef- fective means of driving them from the field would seem to be in meeting them with their own weapons and letting the test determine who should survive. Un- der the existing system there is not a fair field.
 There are pushing and irrepressible physicians just there are like char acters in all the walks of life. If one of this class of doctors performs a diff cult operation or cares for an "inter- esting" case, the world is acquainted with the fact. He Is the member of his profession most likely to be on the spot when an accident of public inter est occurs, and his name figures in the reports. He is an effective advertiser while many a more modest practitioner with equal or greater ability plods along. an honest observer of the ethi- cal code. We have no thought of ren- derlng a verdict in the case, but the phases of it mentioned obtrude them selves and invite consideration.-De- troit Free Press.

The Club Knocked Out.

Phoenix was lifted out of the mire yesterday. Except in two instances the city republican ticket was elected. It can not be claimed that the result was wholly a republican victory. l. was rather an assertion of the supremacy of decency over indecency.
 Phoenix it has been we'll known has been a republican town for the last six years. Whenever there has been no outside issue the head of the repub- lcan ticket has been elected. But there have been so many issues from time to time that the republicans have assisted in the election of democrats. that the democrats have been enabled to establish a machine that seemed inn pregnable. It was crystalliZed into the Young Mems Democratic club and that was what the votes of yesterday were mainly aimed at.
 The leaders of that club are decent gentlemen in private life; there are no better in the city. The club fell into the error tha> all misguided political organizations do, and perhaps honestly imagined that the tax payers of the city were subordinate to the club.
 That imagination has been dispelled, not entirely by republican votes but by the assistance of many democrats who believed that cities are not built for the edification of political organiza- tions.
 The back bone of the Young Mems Democratic club against which the Re publican has fought so consistently in one way or another for the last three years has been broken and we believe now that the members of it, and we love them all, will become useful and helpful members of society

DEAD BY CONSTRUCTION

Tom Earth of Randolph county, Ala, Is dead according to law. He was hanged for murder. and very properly. The execution was carried out in due and antique form, by the rope until the convict was dead. The physician legally appointed and officiating under the law pronounced him dead according to law. And to all appearances dead Tom was.
 But, all the same, Tom wasn't dead. He was only squeezed out. With the kind assistance of his relatives and friends, who received his inanima te body, he was restored to light and lib- erty. Tom has q sore throat now, but. outside of that little trouble, he is Tn perfect health.
 And here comes in the question: When a man dies according to law can the law come in later and say that it has made a mistake? At the end of the rope there seems to be something In the nature of an escape" in Toms favor, and. if we are not mistaken. there Is somewhere in the musty past decision which puts Tom straight on his legs again. He may fancy that he Is alive, but the law says no. Let the lawyers fight it out among themselves Tom can stand it-New York Sun.

The Banner of Cherokee, Texas, says:
 ''Toads at twenty live cents apiece!
 That's what some of our enterprising truckers have been known to pay for them, so great is the demand and scarce the supply during the cold frame season. A few toads turned loose in a plant bed with a shallow vessel of water to drink from are said to successfully settle the cut-worm and other insect problems. No telling. in a little while toad culture itself may be a
 good business. Not a day has passed in the fruit and truck culture in east Texas that something more has not been learned in regard to it. The first thing was learning how to raise or rather plant; the next thing was how to market; now it is the protection of the crops. Having ascertained that toads will protect plant beds, toad raisers will soon be numerous, partic- ularly if toads are worth twenty-cents each. As the fruit business made the box-making business possible and prof itable, the truck business may make the toad and other business profitable ''

CURRENT COMMENT
MAY DOCTORS ADVERTISE?

Every learned profession has it's school of ethics, and rightly so. Min isters, doctors, professors. and others with related occupations must comply with the requirements of a specific standard or be discredited by their feI- lows. But it is inevitable that the in telligence of the age should sit in judg- ment as to the merits and equities of these standards. It is conceded that the doctors give greater prominence to this question than do those in any other professional calling and is no reflection upon laymen that they are sometimes surprised into wondering whether phy- sicians have not remained hardened and arbitrary in an age that tends to liberality in thought and action. We are in no position to say with author ity that it is right for doctor to use printers ink in telling the people what he can do for them; but it is interest ing and encouraging to have the ques- tion raised by so able and distinguished member of his profession as is Dr. Donald Maclean.
 It is needless to say that there is nothing mercenary in his protestations.
 His name and fame are established and his communication appearing in the columns of this paper is chiefly elo- quent of charity and breadth of view He makes no radical departure from conservatism which he has practiced. but he does intimate that truthful ad- vertising on the part of a doctor of medicine is not an unpardonable sin. He could scarcely do so without con- demning the men and women of his calling to eXtermination. Every one of them advertise by giided signs and door plates. They all announce them selves by scores in the city telephone directories. If they be specialists in eye. nose. ear, throat, heart stomach, liver, kidney, or other local troubles, they see that the fact is known to tha public.
 The difficulty of those outside of the profession is to comprehend why tho wider and better field of advertising should be forbidden. If a person be sick from any clearly defined malady 1t cannot be wrong that he should learn

not deceive ourselves into the belief that it will be wholly one-sided. There is much of vitality and progressiveness left yet in the Latin peoples. France is practically stationary in population, but there are other manifestations of national strength than growth in num- bers; and the advance of France in education. stability and balance during the third republic cannot be set aside as meaning nothing. Besides. the French failure to increase population is more than made up by Itely, which, notwithstanding large emigration to the United States, is doubling in popu- lation every thirty years. From be- ing in Metternich's time only a geo graphical expression it has become a real power in the world. Spain. so far from being put completely out of the race by her disasters in 1898. is now probably stronger than al any time since the reign of Ferdinand VII, near ly a century a day.
 With these facts in mind and observ- ing the progress that has been made in the last thirty years by Mexico. Bra gil. Argentina, Chile. Peru and some of the other nations of the world, the eau tious and unprejudiced student of race conditions cannot subscribe to the be- lief that the Latin peoples are decadent in the sense of being on the broad road to extinction or even inconsequence The supremacy of the Anglo-Saxon and the Teuton is firmly enough establish ed. But the Latin has not ceased to be a factor in the worlds affairs and in the propulsion of civilization.

The Latin Peoples.

Most men of Anglo Saxon or Teu- tonic blood look upon the Latin races as decadent. and so in certain sense they are. Neither in recent achieve ment nor in present virility do they measure up to the standards of the northern races or or their own past and in his more than half contemDtu- ous feeling for them the Anglo-Saxon or Teuton naturally counts them as hardly worth reckoning with in fore casting the proximate future of the world. But race pride may easily carry one much too far in such views. If little thoughtful attention be given 10 the proceedings of the congress of Latin peoples that has recently been in session at Rome the belief that the races represented there are of no weight or consequence must be consid- erabIy modified.
 France, Italy, Spain and Portugal were represented, some Of the Balkan states and Mexico and all the nations of Central and South America-a very considerable portion of the worlds population in the aggregate. And the general tone of proceedings was by no means one of acknowledged defeat and despair in the face of the growing sol idarity of the northern races. Signor Nassi. the Italian minister of public in struction. said that the congress was not meant as a menace to other races, but that its purpose was to defend the Latin world against the advances of other peoples wishing to conquer the globe" One of the French delegates, M. Chaumie. said that "the union of the Latin races must be along the paths of peace and the diffusion of civ ilizatiOn." The words of other dele gates were of the same tenor. All the speeches appear to have been sane and progressive.
 Now this is good wholesome talk for cocksureness in many quarters that the Anglo Saxons and the Teutons are about to divide up the world between them. In the broad humanitarian view 1t is encouraging to see that the Latin peoples are not hopelessly depressed by the outlook. not yet ready to lie down and be walked over, nor yet assuming that the rivalry of race is to take the warlike form. That there should be a drawing of them together at this june ture of history is natural and, one may well feel assured is for the ultimate best good of the world. The triumph of the United States over Spain was strong impulse in that direction; so also, and still stronger, has been the flood oi recent talk. some of it rather flatulent, about coming great conflict in which nll the English and German speaking people will be arrayed against al! the people of Romance language
 There may be such c contest. though of course one of peaceful enterprise rather than warlike adventure; the present tendency to closer union of feeling among the northern and south ern race groups. respectively. points to 1t. But we of northern blood should
