Darlington's New Court House.

The new court house at Oar
lington, said to be the finest in
the state, was formerly dedica
ted on the 18th with imposing
ceremonies. The chief justice
and his associates were present,
also ex-judge Hudson and solioi
tor Johnson-all of whom made
short addresses appropriate to
the occasion. AS many of ou1
readers will read with interest
what the two last had to say we
take from the Darlington News
the following:
JUDGE HUDSON IN PART.
He said in part that it was moi his pur.
pose to make set speech. this he could
n, do but if in the following up what had
already been so well said he could give O
word Of counsel he would be pleased
Speaking Oi the lawIessncss in the State
he said that he could not see why appea

and the school. It was not there that re
form could be had. but in the tribunal ol
justice. In this day and time judges have
too little power and tho Bar does no,
give judge proper support Being con.
fined to the giving of the law, the judge
is stripped of his legitimate functions. lie
can only define the law and many jurors
could do the same; perhaps not in lega

A NEW DISCOVERY
That May Prove a Good Thing

Every farmer who knows that
clover and pea vines are nitrogen
producing crops but they don't
know why this is. So Scientists
tell lis that on the roots of these
plants are bacteria whice have the
power in some way to take in nj
trogen from the air and give it to
the soil. A discovery has been
made by DIR. George T. Moore
which will enable every farmer to
grow theSnitrogen fixing bacteria
himself and apply them to his crop.
The Youths Companion says:
Gle can send to the Department
of Agriculture and get small pack
ct of sterlized cotton, on which the
germs are growing. With this come
two tiny packages of chemicals. One
of these he dissolves in certain a.

SANE QUARANTINE.

Louisiana and the States which adjoin her are
about to receive an object lesson in fighting
yellow fever that should prove of lasting value
The methods which the national government
will employ will differ essentially from some
which have been adopted within the last two
weeks On the one hand, they will unques-
tionably be more effective than those on which
the authorities of New-Oreans have recently
relied; on the other hand they ought TO prove
more sensible and less oppressive than the
measures to which some of the rural parishes
OF the Pelican State and Governor Vardaman
have resorted. And the key to the new pro-
gramme will undoubtedly be found in the policy
by which Major Gorgas completely rid Havana
of the pestilence four or five years ago.
The first step which the medical corps of the
Marine Hospital service will take will be to
insure such thorough inspection as will make
the discovery of every case of sickness practi-
cally certain. Major GOrgas remarked in 1907
"One unknown case in a nOn-immune community
would be worse than fifty known cases" There
is a wholesome bit of doctrine about the folly of
official secrecy as we'll as concealment by the
individual victim and his friends. Unless the
fullest possible information about the scene of
every incipient is available any health
board-local state or natOnal-must fight
against great odds When the field of opera
tions is clearly outlined the rest of the work is
comparatively easy. The patient should be
screened from mosquitoes, and his house should
be fumigated so as 70 rid it of those insects
Checks should also be put propagation by
covering cisterns as TO make them inaccessi-
bic, and by filling up pools in dooryards; but the
duty of employing these preventive measures is
less pressing than that of finding every sick per-
son and isolating him and of destroying all mos
quitoes in his domicle.
Those who accept the modern theory regard
ing the means by which alone yellow fever Is
spread believe that an important change in the
system of quarantine is justified Major Gorgas
in Cuba had TO deal not only with those who
stayed in Havana all the time. but also with
large number of people who came to the city
for business daily by rail and returned to their
suburban homes-from ten to twenty miles Off
at evening. Outlying districts continued TO be
centres of infection after Havana itself was
once rid of It, 1t thus became necessary TO
fight the plague in these places, too Major
Gorgas did SO by detanng well persons from
infected towns when they reached the city and
keeping them under observation until the period
Of incubation was over. All who actually ex-
hibited symptoms Of the fever were still more
carefully secluded. But the authorities stOpped
there. They put no restraint on commerce
There was no inspection fumigation or de-
tention of freight A watch was kept only on
passengers. There cannot be any doubt that
the same policy regarding railway traffic in the
South could be followed with safety.
If the federal government should be invited by
Texas and Mississippi, well as by louisiana
TO take full charge OF the situation it would
