Texas, in 1859, where he has ever
since resided.
From 1880 to 1887 he was in
charge of the Southern Pacific
railway hospital in this place, the
service extending from Lafayette,
La, to Ell Paso, Tex, and the rec,
ords show that while acting in this
capacity he treated IL, 656 patients,
including every conceivable char
acter of injury, as we'll as all the
ailments to which the human flesh
is heir in this section of the coun-
try. The doctor has had wide
experience in the treatment of vel
low fever, having been through
several epidemics of this disease
in this and other States and since
the death OF DR.. Joseph Jones of
New Orleans was probably the
highest authority on this subject.
In 1897 he was sent by the com
missloners' court of Colorado
County to investigate the reported
cases of yellow fever in Houston
and Galveston. DR.. John Guiteras
of the United States marine hos.
pital service has announced that
these eases sse were yellow fever.
After a thorough examination of
the cases Dr. Harrison pronounced
them to not be yellow fever, which
later proved to be the correct di-
agnosis Of the cases.
DR.. Harrison took an active part
in the organization of the Texas
State Medical Association and has
retained his membership up to
this time. He was vice president
of that body in 1875, and its pres
ident in 1876. Since that time he
has been chairman of many of its
most important committees. Since
the organization of the State asso-
citation he has labored to have en-
acted law providing for a State
board of health and for the col
lection and recording of vital sta
tistics. A law for the collection
of vital statistics was passed at a
recent Legislature.
In 1873 Columbus was visited
by an epidemic which has been
called paludal hemorrhagic fever,
by other authorities to have been
yellow fever. AT that time Gal
weston showed more sympathy for
this town than any other section
of the State, sending here money,
nurses, physicians and provisions.
After the storm of September s,
1900, to repay to Galveston the
debt owed by Columbus to Calves.
ton, Dir. Harrison collected some
twenty men from this place, taking
them as far as Houston to offer
their services to that stricken
town. At Houston he was in
formed that the twenty men would
not be needed, but that the people
of Galveston would be glad to have
him alone. The authorities in
charge extemporized for him a
hospital in hall on Market street,
where he treated more than three
hundred injured gratuitously,

rhe New Era of RAILWAY Building.

The New Era of Railway Building.
Times change, and mems views
change with them. Nearly three
years ago James J. Hill gave to the
public most doleful interview as
regarded the then immediate future
of railway ard general business
throughout the United States.
The then future is now the past
and the years have been profitable
and prosperous, and not those of
loss and depression, as forecast by
Mr.. Hill. On his return last week
from an extended tour E. II. Harri-
man prophesied an era of competi-
tive roailroad building, and the
street regarded this as an i'll omen
for values.
James j. Hills attention being
called to Mr.. Harriman's remarks,
he said he had not taken that view
OF it. but admitted some MINOR ex-
tensions of his roads.
An era of competitive railway
building will not be injurious to the
material interest of this country.
Upon the contrary experience ia
the past proves that railway build.
ing is eread aid to the business
interests, and it is to be sincerely
hoped that Mr.. Hartman is correct
and that extensive railway develop
meft and extension will be the tea
ture of the years to come. The
railways of the country were never
so prosperous as they are to-day
They are earning excellent divi-
dends while expanding large sums
of money for Improvements in
every way.
However ample they deemed their
facilities to be, those facilities are
to-day taxed to their utmost, and
in many instances have proved in
adequate to properly accommodate
the traffic offered. 1t will be many
years before the United States
will be provided with the railway
facilities that the people demand
or the business requires. Competi-
tive railway building may reduce
the income of an existing line, but
it in no manner Injuries local or
general interests of the country.
1t means greater demand for all
these articles. 1t means employ
ment of more labor in machine
shops and locomotive works. 1t
signifies esta blishment of indus
tries, creation of new villages
towns and possibly cities. 1t
stands for more extensive develop
ment than of the natural resources
of the United States and for the
additional thousands of happy
homes for the American people.
All hail the opening of an era of
extensive railway building, wheth-
er competitive or non-competitive.
The fears of Wall street on that
point are not shared by the people
of the country, and those fears are
as baseless as was the direful vision
of Mr.. Hill in his pessimistic night
mare of three years Wash
ton Post.
