We Prefer
The Tennessee
Brand of Hamm

The South is afflicted with two
brands OF Hamm One halls from
Tennessee, and is d reverend gen
tleman who recently raised hue and
cry in his pastorate by delivering a
straight, hot-shot sermon on the I'M
cody sins of dancing and gambling,
and censured his church members for
their progressive euchre and whist
parties where prizes were offered for
lone hands and progressions,. His
sermon was not taken kindly by the
"scotched" ones and this man of God
will probably lose his call for 1av-
ing done what he believed his God
given duty The Rev. Mr. Ham, OF
Tennessee, was earnest, sincere and
filled with the spirit of meekness
and made his remarks from the heart.
But Mississippi has a very, very
different brand of Ham. He evidently
is trying hard to make the people be
! lieve that he is of the sugar cured
variety, Judging by his sugar-coated
speeches, nonsensical and ludicruos in
the extreme Our Mississippi Ham
would enter the political arena OF
Mississippi, would enter the halls of
National Congress as a representa-
tive OF the people Of this district, and
sorry be the day for the State OF Mis-
sissippi if he wins his political tight.
This Mississippi brand OF Ham was
in Clarkesdale recently, and took oc-
! casion to address the people there.
In his speech he takes the opportun-
ity to chastise the Tennessee brand
OF HAn and in so doing has made
himself the Simple Simon Pure OF the
State-he has made himself the laugh
ing stock from one end to the other.
Read the following, clipped from the
Clarksdale Register, and if you do not
turn in disgust from such as he, we
are very much mistaken
Hon Sam Ham, an avowed candi-
date to succeed Congressman Ben
Humphries from this district, was in
Clarksdale recently-court was il
session and he had the opportunity OF
doing little political mixing, and
pushed his candidacy along consid-
erably. Some thought he was

VERMONT WOMAN CONVICTED OF

Mabel Rogers marched to her death
on the gallows at the state prison
here and paid the penalty of murder.
ing her husband, Marcus Rogers, at
Bennington on Aug. 10, 1902. To all
appearances Mrs. Rogers was the
calmest person in the chamber of
death. She faced her end with the
same stoical indifference that had
marked her demeanor ever since her
arrest, more than three years ago.
The execution took place after the
woman had been twice reprieved on
account of appeals made in her case
by her counsel and after the United
States supreme court refused to take
action in the case.
Only a comparatively few persons
witnessed the hanging, the number
being restricted to those permitted to
attend by the laws of Vermont.

Previous congresses have met
with a stray member or two under
indictment. But we do not remem-
Der that any American congress ever
before with four members of i
under conviction of infamous crime.
One state has only one of four fit
to take his seat under the unwrltten
rule that excludes men under indict-
ment from the floors of the houses.
One territory would be without
representation probably, had the
Enterprise bank exposures of Pitts
burg come in time to permit the
federal courts to punish those
responsible for the frauds.
But the absence from congress of
Senators Burton and Representa-
tives Hermann aud Williamson is
not the most shameful spectacle pre-
scented at the opening of congress.
Better known senators from greater
states than these, more skillful in
operating just without the law,
s~hamelessly paraded the floor in the
light of exposure Of greater moral
iniquities. Senator latt and Sen
ator Depew have not even been
indicted, but in how many minds
have they better moral standing
than Senators Mitchell and Burton,
with the pe~nitentiary yawning
before them?
Depew has confessed to use OF his
position as life insurance director to
divert the money of policyholders
into his own pockets. Plat has
confessed to holding the life insur-
ance companies up year after year
for contributions to support his
personal political machine. Burton
and Mitchell were convicted for
using their senatoril influence in the
department against the people.
For what are Plat and Depew in
congress for, except to work all tho
time against the people in favor of
the railroads and express companies.
Penrose, of Pennsylvania, was con-
spicious on the opening day. He
has not yet confessed, but he is at
least morally responsible for the
political looting of the savings Of
the poor in the Enterprise bank by
the Pennsylvania political machine.
Another Of this band of brigands,
Andrews. OF New Mexico, was sworn
in as territorial delegate.
Had Senator Quay's plan for
making New Mexico a state not
been foiled by Senator Nelson and
others. Andrews would have
appeared to be sworn in as senator
by the side of his Pennsylvania pal.
Thcconvicted senators are not the
worst of the lot.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 20-sea
water as a cure for tuberculosis is ad-
vocated by a Paris physician. and his
theory is forwarded to the state de-
partment in q consular report by Con-
sui General Gunther at Frankfort, who
furnishes from German papers a report
to the effect that DR.. Quinton of Paris
has recently communicated to the Paris
Academy of Medicine, with reference
to the effects Of sea water upon tuber-
culosls. The experiments were con-
Quoted with sea water, which was so
diluted with pure water as to contain
seven parts Of salt in 1000 parts of
liquid. only in this strength salt water
should be brought into contact with the
finer tissues of the human body.
The sea water must, Of course, be
dermically once in three or four days
In doses of from fifty to 300 cubic
centimetres. SO far DIR. Quinton, as
sisted by another physician, has treated
eighteen patients and ascertained the
evident immediate reviving effect Of
the sea water The patients gained
steadily in weight. only three, in which
the disease had progressed very far
showed no improvement, while in the
other fifteen there was a decided i'm
provement.
