THE RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR
ENDED.

After prolonged struggle OF giants
extending over period commencing
February 9Th, 1904 to the Goth of Aug
1905, peace between Russia and Japan
has been declared, and two million sol.
diers in the field have been withdrawn
to peaceful pursuits. Both nations
retire retaining their dignity and en-
tirely satisfied with results. With
the exception of indemnity. Japan
claims to have gained all she fought
for.
This happy termination of one OF
the greatest wars Of history was in a
great measure brought about by the
mediation Of President Roosevelt
whose strenuous personality dominated
the powers and induced the holding of
the negotiations ON American soil free
from European dominance or unfair
environments. At the last moment
when the dove Of peace seemed to
have taken to the woods President
Roosevelt's wise counsels prevailed
and the Japanese Plenipotentiary ac-
copied the suggestions made by his
his great American friend aud peace
was at once assured. and both nations
involved are rejoicing with the whole
world joining in the chorus.
The duration Of this great conflict
was 527 days with . cost to Russia
(sstimated) Of 81, s75, 600, 600; cost to

BAD ROADS.

Again are we forced to call atten-
tion to the impossible condition OF our
roads Numerous complaints from
citizens are made. Drs. j. w. K.
Shaw and w. f. Carstens state that
owing to the miserable condition OF
the roads many persons are forced to
20 to other towns to have prescriptions
filed. st. Martinsville has paid more
attention to her public highways, and
is therefore reaping benefit OF better
trade and more of it, while we are
constantly losing trade. 1t is one OF
the duties of Police Juror to look
after the condition of the roads in his
Ward. The people expect this OF him
and to allow the roads to get in the
present impossible condition is re-
Election Oh the Police Juror of the
Ward where the bad roads exist.
Good roads are an index of civilization
and progress, an invitation to people
to visit our section and to trade with
our merchants and business men, and
good roads stimulate trade in every
line, while bad roads have the oppo-
site influence. We trust our Police
Jury will take up this very i'm
portant matter at their next meeting
and show by their action that they
have some interest in the country and
desire to serve the people whose SER
wants they are and who have placed
them in their responsible position to
discharge their duties.

METCHNlKOFFS DISCOVERIES

''Why in the case of all simple wa.
ter -dressingi" does the putrefactior
not strike inwards?''
Phagoctytosis supplied the answer.
The blood between the lips of the
wound became rapidly peopled with
phagocytes which kept guard against
the putrefactive microbes, and seized
them as they attempted to enter.
Thus Metchnikoff's researches have
beautifully completed the theory OF
antiseptic treatment in surgeory.
Hidden under these scientific phra.
ses there is evidently something won.

ing potentialities of the discovery
which have of late been revealed by
Professor Metchikoff himself, and by
many working groups Of brother scien-
lists, the theory Of phagocytocis gives
promise Of being indirectly, the most
important contribution ever made to
the art Of he9ling.
Since 1857, when Virehow showed
that all higher forms Of life are SIM

red and white corpuscles. The pur-
pose of the red corpuscles was clearly
understood they distributed oxygen.
But the white corpuscles, or leucocy-
ties were puzzling enough. They ap-
peared to have an individual life of
their own. They could expand and
contract. They had powers Of loco
motion, being able to swim against
the arterial currents. If you drew a
drop Of blood from your wrist and held
it close enough to the fire to keep it
at the temperature Of
the body you might see through tho
microscope your private leucocytes

in the system?

that they were nothing more nor less

OUR ITALIAN COOPERATION.

Last Wednesday evening at the cor
ner of Main and Hopkins streets, our
Italian population held large meet
ing to express themselves on the yell
low fever situation and to organize
for cooperation with the Health au-
thorities. The meeting was addressed
by Capt. A. N. Muller, who is great
favorite with the Italians, he gave
them good talk on the necessity of
CO. operation and carrying out the
rules of sanitation. A large number
of Italians were present and showed a
great deal of interest at the meeting.
Mr.. V. Jennaro also spoke to his
countrymen, and others spoke in the
Italian language, producing good ef-
fects. Our Italian population are be-
coming more and more attached to
our institutions and are gradually
adopting American ideas and methods.
Many, especially those who have be-
come proficient in English, are max
ing splendid citizens and are respect
ed as such. Many Of their young peo-
pie are acquiring education in our
public schools and are rapidly devel-
oping into American citizens. 1t is
therefore with pleasure that we see
them coming to the front and assum-
ing their duties. The subjoined letter
to Mr.. V. Jennaro explains itself and
should be read by all Italians in our
midst. They turned over to the quar-
antine fund the nice amount of $65. so.
New Orleans, La. Aug. 26, '05.
Signor V. Jennaro, New Iberia, La.
Knowing you to be the most influ-
entail character amongst the Italians
of your community, beg you to make
every effort possible to convince them
that the measures taken by the local
authorities in regards TO yellow fe-
yer, is for the interest of the public,
particularly for the Italians.
That the relative authority is su-
preme and ne one else has more charge
of the sanitary situation. That in
stead Of opposing the Italians, ought
to render every effort possible towards
assisting the officers in their duties
and whoever objects are subject to the
of the law, and at their
own risk and danger and they must
not suspect it the wish of the Ameri-
cans to do away with the Italians,
but to strive in the interest of all.
The country is requested to assist:
