Hon. Richard Mays, City.

Hon. Richard Mays, City.
Dear Sir:-Your letter Of June
26th to me was duly received, its
publication noted. You propose
that you and ! in this county have
a preliminary primary; If ! beat
you, you support me and if you
beat me, support you. The pro-
position is declined. Success is
not so dear to me. ! have already
stated there are live issues to be
presented, on some OF which |
have stated my views. | shall
certainly not pledge myselfto sup
port any candidate in the primary
till | know for what side Of these
issues he stands. presume hav.
ing seen such statement, you are
ready to endorse those views.

do not know for what you or
Judge Field may stand and | shall
not blindly pledge to either my
support until | do know. But if |
did know your views and agreed
with them all, | should neverthe-
less not make the trade suggested
by you. A congressman is elected
by district, not county. Had J
an absolute guaranty that ! should
beat you one vote or one thousand
votes | should still decline your
proposal. | propose not only If
nominated and elected to act for
the best interests Of the entire dis.
trict and democracy, but in the
primary to so vote. II no question
of principle was involved in the
proposal you make, | think that
any candidate so put forward from
this the biggest county in the dis.
trict would encounter strong preju.
dice and q just one from other
counties. Should you or | be
Navarro's candidate under such an
agreement, Hon. Scott Field or
other candidates could and ought
to club either of US to death with
that agreement in other counties.

THE POLICE AS cENsoRs.
They Are to Decide Whether Li.ho-
graphs Are Objectionable.

SPRINGFIELD. Mass, Nov. H.,
When posters are stamped Approved
by the Police Department they can't
be taken down." is the ruling OF Chief
Of Folice George NJ. Stebbins, whose
st' ention has been called by the
Springfield Improvement Association
to sensational Autographs advertising
The Queen of Convicts" Company.
A few months ago the poster CEN
sorship Of the police department made
the city a subject of national ridicule.
Last month a melodrama entitled
why Girls Leave Home" was COM
llc'ed to obliterate the word Girls"

provement association complains de-
picted handcuffed women being
scourged by jailers. Beneath the pic.
ture is printed: Lash the she devils;
it'll make 'em sttp livelier." The
fosters received the approval OF the
police department, and consequently,
according to Chief Stebbins, cannot be
Objectionable.

Open Air for Consumption.

Consul Mahin, OF Nottingham.
England. reports successful efforts to
cure consumption and smallpox by
the open air treatment He writes:
The open air treatment for con.
sumption has been initiated in this
consular district with successful re.
suits. Three years ago sanatorium
was established in. this country on
elevated ground. with southern as.
pect. at the edge of forest. 1t is
primarily for persons of limited means
or none at all and is therefore sup.
ported mainly by contributions from
philanthropic people. The cases of
consumption In this district are chief.
ly among the poor, and these can
only be reached through charitable
institutions. The annual number of
deaths in this city from consumption
is nearly 500, being about 10 per cent.
Of the total number from all causes.
The ratio In the entire county is
about the same, the annual number
OF deaths approaching 1000. An in
teresting fact is that the percentage
Of mortality among males Is much
greater than among females, even
when the two sexes are employed in
the same trade. as in lace or hosiery
manufacture. About 200 patients
have passed through the Nottingham
sanatorium since 1t was founded. OF
these, the disease was arrested in
about 25 per cent, great improve.
ment was reported in about 80 per
cent. some improvement in rs per
cent. stationary" was reported for
10 per cent. while the remainder grew
worse. No deaths are so far re-
ported. Altogether this record is
considered good in view OF the fact
that most OF the patients are in al
yanced stages of the disease. It is
found very difficult to induce persons
to take treatment at the first signs
OF tuberculosis. An "after-care com.
mittee" endeavors to follow up leav.
Ing patients to discover IL relapses' &C.
cur. An organization Is also effect
ed to secure suitable employment
for discharged patients. 1t Is pro.
posed besides, to provide some light
outdoor work, such as horticulture,
for patients at the sanatorium.

and wrote to the company and was in

found true in other cases and now the
young man in question is reaping the

Louis Crawford. Suspect in Suit Case
Mystery, Has Visited Hero.

Brunswick Me. Nov. G.-I.cuis w.
| Crawford, who is under arrest in con-
nection with the Boston dress suit case
affair. is well known here. having Wis
tied Brunswick some five or six years
ago.
He was at that time engaged il: horse
trading. He brought several carloads
Of Western horses into the State and
distributed them at various points.
Crawford and d helper spent some time
here selling the horses.
The car that he brought to Brunswick
contained about nine horses. of which
he sold four or five. The remainder he
took to Richmond and disposed of them
there.
Other places that he visited with
horses were Gardiner. Waterv;lle and
Lewiston.
. The men with whom he dealt say
that he was a sharp trader. He was.
however a pleasant appearing fellow
and made friends with most of those
with whom he came in contact.
He had visited Brunswick at various
other times, but on these occasions had
generally stopped few hours.
