FEVER IS THREATENED
Among Cattle Of Hickman and Car.

antine Issued.

An epidemic of Texas fever is threat
ened among the cattle in portions of
Hickman and Carlisle counties, below

quarantine has been issued by the
state board of health announcing thai
the highly infectious disease exists In
cattle in portions of Hickman and Car.
isle counties under such conditions
as to endanger adjoining counties I'm.
less the infection is brought under
immediate control.
The board has placed the section of
Hickman county which was included
in the quarantine for Texas fever by
the board September II, 1908, and
that portion of Carlisle county within
radius of two miles from said sec
ton, and all cattle which have been
upon said land within the last two
weeks quarantine. and all persons are
forbidden to drive or permit to be
driven any cattle of the bovine spe-
cies to or from said infected lands,
unless ii be To- return cattle which
have been exposed to such lands I'M
der the supervision of the state veter-
marian or his assistants.
Texas fever Is brought into this
county by insects known as ticks, that
are on most southern cattle that reach
here. While the fever apparently
has no effect on the southern cattle
it has proved fatal to the northern cat
tie whenever they have contracted it.
The disease was prevalent in Hiek-
man and Carlisle counties in 1903, and
killed off a great number of cattle be-
fore 1t was stopped.

Government Not to Interfere-A
ConciIiatory Message.

Rome. Sept 1S-The Mayor OF Turin has
telegraphed TO Si:snor Giolittl President Of the
Council and Minister Of the Interior, in the name
Of the Socialist aldermen OF Turin, expressing
the desire of the workingmen that intervention
Of troops in peaceful conflicts between capital
and labor be avoided.
Signor GiolittI Immediately replied by tele-
graph that for three years. as Minister OF the
Interior. he had constantly supported the prin-
ciple Of absolute liberty OF vorkingmen to strike
and that it not the duty or the government
to intervene adding that he intended to follow
the same principles while he remains IN power
The Minister continued:
The painful facts are 70 be regretted by all
that in one case soldiers used their arms in self
defence after being attacked and wounded, and
in another instance acted without orders from
their superiors. Therefore these soldiers have
been put at the disposal Of ths judicial authori-
ties while an inquiry Is going on to ascertain
the responsibility for the occurrences.
signor Giolittrs dispatch ended as follows:
In administering my Office shall remain al
ways within the law. but shall perform my
duty and make the law respected by all
therefore hope the Socialists will recommend
calm behavior and avoid deplorable violence,
compromising the cause of liberty
