TUBERCULOSIS LEAGUE.
tuberculosis Not the Fatal Disease
Past Generations Have Re-
garded it.

Increased attendance and largely
increased interest marked the second
days proceedings OF the American
Anti-Tuberculosis league in Atlanta
on Tuesday. Late arrivals brought
the attendance up to about 600 physl-
clans, which included a large number
of women practitioners. The general
subject considered at the only session
of the congress on Tuesday was the
treatment of tuberculosis in its vari-
Gus forms. The paper OF the day
which was accorded the closest at
tention was by Dr.. c. P. Amber, Of
Asheville, n c., on "The physicians
permanent duty to the patient and
family in tuberculosis" At the con-
clusion of the. paper the convention,
by a unanimous vote, authorized the
publication Of the paper as %embodying
the sense of the league on the subject.
Dr.. Amber in the course of his ad-
dress said:
Il wish to place myself on record
as advocating that the best means Of
preventing consumption is to discov-
er the tuberculosis disease in the pa
tient before the stage OF consumption
has been reached. Consumptives are
persons dying with a tuberculosis dis
ease. tuberculosis is not the fatal
disease that past generations have re-
garded it.
AS the conclusion of his discussion
Dr.. Amber presented the following
points: First, tuberculosis is not the
fatal disease commonly believed. Sec
ond. while communicate, it can be
made practically %;nnacuous by the
proper course on the part Of The pa
tient. Third, the chief cause of the
large mortality. is late diagnosis.
Foutth,:late diagnosis is caused by in
Ediferenee on the part of the. patient
to early symptoms and carelessness
on the port Of the physician consulted.
Fifth, by, thorough, systematic in
struction of the patient, better results
can be accomplished than by medica-
ton. Sixth, instruction of patient,
family and friends and close. obser-
vance on their part Of the rules laid
down will practically rob the disease

THE ALLIANCE EXCHANGE.
Supreme Court Sustains Contention
Of Attorneys For the Ex-
change.

On Wednesday OF this week the ST.
preme court handed down a decision
in the case OF Bruoksil;re VS. the Far
mers Alliance Exchange, limited,
About a year and a half ago Brook
shire and others attempted to put the
funds OF the Exchange. amounting to
over sixteen thousand dollars, in the
hands of a receiver. At that time the
directors OF the Exchange we're at
tempting to distribute the fund to the
sub-!Aliiances throughout the state,
and they resisted the effort to place it
in the hands Of a receiver so as to
save heavy expenses, attorneys fees,
etc. A temporary order was passed
by Judge Ernest Gary restraining the
directors from distributing this fund.
and requiring them to show cause
why a received should not be appoint
ed, and referred the matter to John S.
Werner, Master for Richland county,
to take testimony and report on same
to him. Upon the filing OF the testl-
mony Judge Gary ordered that unless
the Exchange give bond in the sum of
thirty-three thousand dollars, its al
iairs be placed in the hands Of a re-
ceiver. The Exchange gave this
bond, and the supreme court held
that the giving OF the bond vacated
the order OF Judge Gary in so far as
the appointment OF a receiver was
concerned. Subsequently Judge Gary
passed another order directing the
Master to call in creditors and stock
holders OF the Exchange by a day
certain: and from this order the tx
change appealed IN the ground that
Judge Gary had no right to pass such
IN order. The decision Of the supreme
court just handed down sustalnS the
contention of the attorneys for the
Exchange on all material points, and
holds that the order of Judge Gary
was not appealable, and for that rea-
son dismissed the appeal.
The attorneys Tor Brookshire are
Bellinger & Townsend and James
Werner. The attorneys for the ALI
ance are Hunt. Hunt & Hunter and
Lyies & McMahan. -
The Ease is yet TO be fought out on
its merits, as the supreme court has
decided that all that Judge Gary has
done up to this time is preliminary to
the fight on the merits in the circuit
court, and the case will probably be
heard at the next session OF the court
of common pleas for Richland coun-
ty.

More Storms.

Del. RIO, Texas, July 3.-Eighteen lives
are known TO have been lost as a result of
eloudburst in the mountains above the town of
Las Vacas. Sixteen were MeXicans, and two
of the dead were American children washed
away before the eyes of panic-stricken
crowd.
The loss is enormous, as the waters went
through the fertile valley in a mighty flood,
carrying everything before 1t. The loss IN
live stock is great.
Funds are being raised here for the flood
sufferers, and searching parties are trying TO
recover the bodies of the dead. Fresh news
comes in almost hourly of some point where
property was damaged, aud probably more
lives were lost 1t will be several days before
all details are known.
The 16 Mexicans drowned lived about four
miles from Las Vacas on the bank ofthe creek,
and one mile from here.
They were peacefully slumbering when the
great volume of water came upon them.
EINIRA. n. Y. July 3.-This city and i'm
mediate neighborhood was the centre of
terrific electrical storm yesterday afternoon,
which did damage amounting to Sl5O,OoO or
more. Lightning struck a dozen buildings IN
the city and in Elmira Heights.
Near the Gleason health resort, on East
Hill. there was a cloudburst. The water swept
down the hill into the city, washing out one
avenue and completely destroying the home
of Stuart Decker.
Near Pine Civ. Miles Adie. keeper Of
general store was drowned. There are several
bad washOutS on the Erie and Northern Cen
trail railroads south and east of the city.
An Iron bridge on the State road, near the
PENNSYLVANIA line, was washed away. MANY
bridges are gone aud dozens of horses and
cows were drowned.

A Guess In The Line Of Hope.

The Westminster correspondent of the Bal
timore Evening News, writing to that paper
under date Of the 9th inst, says: 80 far
as known the Democrats (of Carroll county
will be solid for the franchise amendment,
and considerable number of Republicans
will also support the measure. Some are
outspokca for it. Others will vote for it
duietly.n Both these statements may be re
garded as too optimistic and based on INSULT
Gent data There are Democrats in the
county who will certainly vote against the
amendment. There may be some Repubh-
cans who will vote for it, but, we believe, the
negative Democratic vote will more than
counter balance the affirmative Republican
vote. Sentinel
Upon what sufficient data does the Sentinel
base its assertion that the statement of the
News correspondent is ''too optimistic? =
How does it know that the Democrats who
will vote against the amendment outnumber
the Republicans who will vote for it?
1t is reported-we have no certain knowl-
edge-that two Democrats in the county are
opposed to the amendment, but both of them
have voted for Republican nominees in recent
years and cannot claim to be party men.
The ADVOCATE knows of more than twice that
number of Republicans in Westminster who
favor the adoption of the amendment and has
heard of others in the districts.

A sledgenammer ~ Blow.

Our Republican neighbor-our thick and
thin Republican neighbor-the Sentinel. ad-
vocates the rejection of the franchise amend
ment as the best way to induce the investment
of foreign capital in new enterprises in Balti-
more. The rejection ofthe amendment means
the keeping of the voting privilege in the hands
of the ignorant and vicious negroes, and an
invitation to more of that class to come to this
State. By foreign capital the Sentinel
means Northern and Western. Now the
Sentinel knows that Northern aud Western
capital is slow to intrest in communities where
the negroes are an important factor in politics,
and will not invest at ali where there is pre-
ponderance of negroes. As to fear OF ring
rule business men generally do not care who
controls, so the government is good and
wholesome Such a government Maryland
has had since 1867. Even under Lowndes,
thanks to laws passed by Democratic Legis-
latures, the government was endurable. That
bogy of ring exists only in the imagination
ofthe Sentinel, and its intended sledgehammer
blow against the amendment had not the weight
of feather. Such reasoning could not have.
Just think of it a moment. In substance the
Sentinels position is-Let the ignorant and
vicious negroes retain the ballot, invite more
to come, then Northern and Western capital
will invest in new enterprise in Baltimore.
That ring argument is simply Sentinel delu
sion and the basis of all its articles on the
amendment, and in fact upon all other politica
matters in Maryland. The Democratic ring
haunts the Sentinel by night and stares at j
BY day.
