YELLOW FEVER GERM
DISCOVERY NOW ANNOUNCED
Physicians Can Now Identify the Dis
ease in Its Earliest Stages
Success Of New Orleans
Experiments,

New Orleans, La. Sept. 26.-The yell
low fever germ has been discovered.
Careful tests during four weeks in the
Emergency hospital by Drs. p. e.
Archinard, ]. Bierney and Guthrie and
Prof. j. c. Smith, a biologist, have re-
suited in the discovery. Identification
and positive proof of the germ. which.
after conveyance by the stegomyia
mosquito. causes yellow fever in all
persons into whose blood it enters.
In nearly a dozen cases yellow fever
was diagnosed on the appearance of
the germ in the patients blood, al
though there was no other signs Of yell
low fever.
This is said by physicians to be one OF
the most important discoveries in the
field Of medicine for fifty years, or
since Pasteur made his famous expert
ments with cholera.
Any physician, IL Is stated, can now
identify the disease in its first stages,
before the well-defined symptoms have
appeared. 1t is said to furnish an alb
solute and indisputable test of the
scourge of the tropics and cannot be
confounded with the germs which re-
semble yellow fever in its first stage.
The life history of the organism
which DIR. Archinard found was fol-
lowed and its presence in the blood
of yellow fever patients confirmed.
Then diagnosis was made by the MI
croscope of the blood OF every patient
who came into the hospital. and since
this was done the later diagnosis has
shown the symptoms of yellow fever.
In some cases the patient when ex-
amined showed no symptoms whatever
OF the fever. but in every case when
the microscopic diagnosis revealed the
germ the patient. within one. two or
three days. developed albumen and q
jaundiced condition of the skin, show
ing characteristic clinical picture of
yellow fever. A physician Of the Ma
rine hospital service said to-day:
THE profound significance OF this
discovery cannot well be overesti-
mated. Its benefit 10 the South and to
humanity - great. II gives an accu-
rate and scientific method OF investi-
eating the mild cases which occur ev-
cry summer and which physicians are
reluctant to diagnose as yellow fever.
Any physician, with the aid OF the
microscope, can recognize the germ
even before its becomes destructive"

MIDDLE PARK OIL STRIKES.
OIL Found at Depth of sixty Feet Near
CRANKY.

Denver. Sept. 26.-Residents in the
neighborhood of CRANKY. on the MoffIt
road. are greatly excited over the dis
covery Of oil In that town. The flow OF
oil was struck by the Frontier Invest
ment Company. which was drilling for
artesian water. and had only sunk
about sixty feet. Two barrels of oil
gushed forth in short time yesterday.
Granuy is new town lying about
ten miles this side of Hot Sulphur
Springs. lying in Middle park. There
are about twenty houses there. and IL
is at this point that the stage lines
branch OFF for North park and Grand
lake. The state has Just completed
n new wagon road from CRANKY to
North park.
Numerous kilograms were received
by officials of the road here yesterday
telling OF the oil strike. At first blue
oil shale was turned up. but later quite
n little flow OF oil followed. Reports
are still meager. however. and do not
indicate whether the strike will prove
extensive or not.
The find resulted in a tremendous
amount of excitement as the news
spread. and yesterday at the Denver
Land Office. about 5000 acres OF land
were filed on. Claims are being staked
out all along up Willow creek, the Mid
die Park valley at CRANKY being a mile
wide. The nature of the country and
its formation is said to be very favor
able for oil.
The discovery Of pure silica was also
made in digging the CRANKY well. the
assay showing ninety-seven per cent.
This Is used In pottery work and for
making yitrified brick.

those days. Most of these tenements
We're of stone in the first story, while
the rest was of wood.
There was no building department at
first, and everybody was permitted to
build as he pleased, with the result
that the poor people were housed mis-
erably and still had to pay enormous
rents.
After the great fire in Nero's reign
much of this was changed. Almost all
of the cheaper tenements were de-
stroyed, and Nero issued a series of
edicts fixing the width of new streets
and the maximum heights of buildings.
1t was ordered that streets must be
cut straight and be no less than fifteen
to eighteen feet wide. and that no
building must be more than seventy
feet high.
OF course. as soon as these edicts were
issued. somebody had to enforce them,
and naturally the police got the job.

There is an old Egyptian story that

wants the Office for the money

WHERE rs THE REPUBLIC.


To say that the republicans OF
Chelan county were surprised
last Friday when the Wenatchee
Republic came out in an editorial
feature with large picture OF
Mr.. Arthur Gum, the demo-
cratic nominee for state senator,
and announced in large head
lines that he was "the right man
for the place, and in q lengthy
argument gave its reasons why
republicans and democrats
should unite in giving him their
support, is putting the state
ment very mildly. In the last
campaign the Republic received
the substantial support of the
republican party in Chelan
county, and many times and
often repeated the assertion in
print that it was a republican
newspaper, and would support
the republican ticket, just as if
some one doubted it, and it was
necessary to keep the public re-
minded of the fact. 1t was so
we'll known that this bare asser-
ton was the only evidence that
the Republic was republican
newspaper that its REPETITION
always caused a smile. 1t would
occasionally print half column
laudation of some particular
county candidate at say twenty
five cents per line.
Supporting local candidates
for office was, with the Republic,
purely a business proposition.
For the quid pro quo any repub-
lican on the ticket could have his
picture printed in the Republic
and get himself written up.
In defense of this method the
Republic will say that tits a mat

The delegates from Chelan
county went to the joint meeting
of the committeeman which was
held in Seattle last Thursday in
structed to vote for Judge Chase
of Cashmere for joint senator
from Kittitas and Chelan coun-
ties, but as Kittitas county had
four more votes than Chelan it
was not to be expected that the
Chelan county man would stand
the ghost of show. Everything
was fair and open. Chelan
county's choice failed of getting
the nomination because she did
not have enough votes. No
ground here for anyone, not
even a newspaper, kicking itself
outside of the party traces.

The action of the Wenatchee Re
public in going over to the sup

county pride and local prejudice
may result in giving Chelan
county to the democratic candi-
date. Mr.. Reeds majority in
his own county will no doubt
save him from defeat.

The Echo can didly believes the
Wenatchee Republic made fatal
mistake in deserving the republi-
can candidate for state senator.
From every point of view it was
a blunder. In a Legislature
where a party is SO woefully and
helplesSly in the minority as is
the democratic party in the
Washington legislature repub-
lican can do Chelan county in
finitely more good than can Il
democrat. Mr. Reed pledged
himself to do all he could to Sc
cure the appropriation for build
ing the bridge across the Colum
bia river at Wenatchee. He can
possibly do some good among
his republican colleagues in this
direction. What argument could
Mr.. Gum bring to bear on re
publicans that would be effective
in bringing them to his view?
