HIS FCL71IS w Q7II7I0.
THOMAS w. LAwsoNs 'tfame'' has been given a
setback from which it will be hard to recover For
la time the redoubtable and resoute reformer from
Boston had things his own way He had the people,
the press and the pulpit with him in his fight; and
many persons imagined that financial institutions
were at his mercy. His prestige, however, has lost
it's brilliancy The recent peace conference has cast
such broad shadow across this satellite of crooked
finance as to hide him from public view This shows
what tickle Jade is fame. For time he was the
central figure before the public; and he talked
Of more than any other America. He had
reached the apogee of his popularity when Of sud-
den his ephemera star faded at the approach Of the
war god and his emissaries Of peace.
Lawson's expose was only momentous issue;
but the peace conference of paramount impor-
lance, hence the dense twilight that has surrounded
him and his crusade. In order to again emerge from
his present obscurity, Mr.. Lawson will have to

DIR. SANDERS IS BUSY
HEALTH OFFICER GOES TO FLOdA- TON TO INSPECT QUARANTINE.
Department Opens once at WindsOK Hotel for Convenience of Travel- inR PubItc--AM Precautions
 Are Taken.

State Health Officer W. H. Sanders left Montgomery yesterday for Floma- ton. where he will look into perfecting the details of the relay camp for train crews coming out of Pensacola or through that ewIy-infected city. From Flomaton, Dr. Sanders will go to Mo- bile, which is expected today, and when through with the business in the Gulf City, he will know whether he will have time and 1t Is advisable to make trip to Memphis.
 At Memphis the situation has a tinge of doubt which in the mind of Dr. San ders has not been cleared by the recent airing in the press accounts of fever alleged to have been imported to New Orleans from the Bluff City. Mem phis foci, however, If there be any, pr. Sanders thinks are not as important to Alabama just now as are those in Pensacola. So that he will be sure or the working order of the Flomaton re- lay camp and other means of protecting the State against invasion by the dig ease before he will leave It's borders.
 Numerous details have to be attended to before a relay camp sueh as tnas tars is entirely prepared for safe work. These are being arranged as fast as possible and in day or two tranc through Flomaton from Florida will be reduced to normal conditions. There is no detention arrangement at Fiona ton, and all passengers from PensacoIa are elther sent Dack. to thht Poihb OA Florida or are required to go on through Alabama when once they come as far as the junction. From reports received at the State Board of Health office yesterday there Is found indication of little efforts to run Alabama's new quarantine against Pensacola fand Escambia County, Flor ida. Only one refugee Is reported to have tried to slip through and he was discovered at Opp on train by one or the State officers. He bad been only few hours in the State from Pensacola and was immediately sent back to FIOr- ida by the shortest route.
 From the convenience of the public and to insure greater despatch in all- round quarantine matters, pr. sanders yesterday, before he left the city, de- cided to establish an office down town Windsor Hotel, possibly on the: second floor in an ample room. It will De m charge of Supervisor Walter Brassell Of the Montgomery circuit, and he an nounced yesterday afternoon that the office would be ready for business today gomery or those passing through who desire Information. instead of telephon- ing the officS of the State Board In the Capitol will have only to visit this new office or call 1t up by telephone. Un- expected trouble of passengers in tray cling through quarantine territory VIII be thus averted.
 No further official report was made to the State Board from the authorities of Pensacola regarding the status or the fever there. Close vigilance con tinues in all counties along the soutn- through other points than Flomaton are being examined as carefully as are the trains coming from New Orleans or oth- CT infected points.

The securities of the Hudson Valley Rail- way Company, which were owned by the Merchants Trust Company or held by 1t as collateral for loans, were sold yesterday by the trust company receiv- CTS to the Colvin syndicate.A The price received for these properties was not made public, but Edward Lauterbach, counsel for the receivers, stated that the proceeds of this sale would enable the receivers to pay off all depositors of the Merchants Trust Company in full, together with all creditors, and that there would probably be some- thing left over for the stockholders.

pun,.hment of Criminal Assault.

Chattanooga Times.
 The trial of a brutal negro in Bos- ton few days since, convicted on his own confession of an assault on To- sulFed in a sentence of only four years in the penitentiary, serves to illustrate a most unaccountably com placent sentiment in the common rocious crime. We have little doubt that the percentage of criminal as- saults in that state proportionate to negroes is very much Higher than in the south. and that 1t will greatly in- crease as the number of such negroes increase.
 Massachusetts, according to the ap- ologists for this condition of public sentiment, regards her penal insti- tutions as ''reclamatory" rather than gard for the physical health and moral

 Iowa and neighboring States have no more cheap land to attract immigra- ton. The big farms absorb the smaller ones and there are fewer farmers but more wealth. For many purposes hu- man labor is increasingly unnecessary and farm laborers find their ocupa- ton shrinking. They must either go West or flock to the cities. The drift to the cities is unwelcome, but the spread of the rural population signifies no har into Iowa, and much good to even more sparsely settled sections, ex- drift across the. border, attracted by Canada's cheap and fertile northwest ern lands.

Ditch Meetina Wednesday.

The joint ditch meeting of
the Pottawattamie and Harri-

adjourned from February FL,
is set for Wednesday of next
week. Since the prior meet
ing Chairman A. Edgecomb of
the Harrison county board, who
was elected chairman of the
joint board has resigned, and a
new presiding officer will have
to be chosen. Whether any
action will be taken at this
meeting depends on the willing
ness of the supervisors to go
ahead under present conditions
without waiting for the SUI
preme court to decide the test
case now before it. Anopinion
was rendered two weeks ago
by Judge Gaynor in the dis
trict court at Sioux City hold
ing the new ditch law to be
constitutional, and this may be
taken by the two boards here
as sufficient basis for proceed
ing with the construction of
the proposed ditch system.
