WILLOW FEVER SITUATION.

While the physicians in charge are
showing their ability to hold the .yel-
law fever at a standstill in the city or
New Orleans; that is, keeping down
deaths, the disease is spreading out
side that city and making its appear
ance in new localities to an alarming
extent In several instances it has
made long leaps to it's new places OF
appearance. The finding of three cases
in Pensacola is causing the authorities
How did the fever get there? If it be
true that the persons attacked had not
been out of the city in two months or
more then some person bearing the in
fection had escaped the quarantine in
spectors and had carried the disease
to that city The fever has also ap-
peared at a point within forty miles
of Mobile So it would seem that it is
advancing eastward along the gulf
coast.
With the yellow fever springing up
in new localities some distance from
New Orleans it behoOveS the authOri-
ties of our city and of all others along
the south Atlantic coast to take great
er precautions than ever to keep out
all persons who might by any pOssi-
bility bring in the disease. Our quar-
antine regulations should be rigidly
enforced and the sanitary condition of
the city looked after with the greatest
care
AS The Messenger has maintained
all along, there is no cause for alarm,
but it is time when the greatest pre-
caution should be taken to keep our
city free of the disease 1t is better
that a good many people should be put
to some trouble and business men in
cOnvenienced. now than that after
awhile all commerce with the outside
world should be stopped because some
one with the fever upon him had been
allowed by our quarantine officers to
come into the city and start the fever
here.
We are making no complaint against
any of those having this matter in
charge but only calling attention to the
necessity of extreme vigilance.

ABOUT THE SGUTUBOUND
Securing Of Rights Of WAY Being
pusi'ctl-CaDtaip Henry Now in
Davidson for This PurDOsc

Colonel T. H. Fries, president of the
proposed south bound railroad is push
ing the securing of rights of way for
the road; as those who are to put up
the money for the enterprise say these
must be secured at once. Captain r..
L. Henry is now in Davidson county
for the purpose. About fourteen
miles are yet to be secured in that
county.
The greatest opposition to the grant
ing of rights Of way seems to be in
Midway township and a section Just
above Lexington, the people believing,
it is said, that they will be paid big
damages by the road if they will hold
Off. In Stanley county the right Of
way is in good shape, except in the i'm
mediate vicinity around Albemarle.
In Anson county the rights of way
have been freely granted in almost
every instance
A new survey in Stanley county,
from Stokes Ferry via New London
and CottOnfile to Ansonville, and the
rights almost all along this route have
been secured. Unless Albemarle votes
bonds and grants rights of way, it
seems almost certain that this route
will be adopted. New London and
Cottonville propose to vote together
$4,000 Of bonds, and this route is
shorter and more direct to Wadesboro.

CASUALTIES OF THE WAR.

Now that the Russian japanese war
is over people will be anxious TO kno"
what were the losses on each slde
Russias casualties by land and by sea
were a great deal heavier than her
enemy's. Japans loss of warshlps was
very small. In fact he comes out OF
the war with four more battlesalps
than she had at the beginning, the
gain being made from the Russian fleet
and her number of cruisers is reduced
by four only. In the loss of men, killed,
wounded and captured Russias, ac-
cording to the London Times, was over
twice as great as Japan's. From the
Charlotte Chronicle we take the fol-
lowing itemized statement OF the
changes made in the two navies:
1T the beginning Of the war. Rus
sia's available naval fleet was 19 bat
tIeships and Al cruisers. The present
naval strength of Russia is battle
ships and cruisers. The Russian
laval losses to date are as follows:
HattIeships sunk 10: captured. in
termed. 1: total. 16.
Japan started out With battlcsh1pS
and As cruisers. She now mas pat
tlesaips and 40 cruisers. A writer IN
The Literary Digest explains that the
Japanese navy will soon be str ength-
encd by the addition Of the two Rus
sian battleshiDs AMI one cruiser CAP
turec at Tshushima. and by four bat
tleships and two cruisers sunk in the
harbor Of Port Arthur and raised by
the japanese. and by the cruiser var
lag. sunk at Chemulpo and raised by
the japanese. Their naval strength
will then be: Battleships. 10: cruisers.
A. The Japanese naval losses are:
Battleships sunk. 2: cruisers sunk 8.
The London Times estimates that in
killed. wbunded and captured. the
Russians have lost 3SS.4SO men. ana
the japanese $4,000.
The battleship spoken of in the above
as being captured by the Japanese al
Tshushima belonged to RajestvenskJ'
fleet which was annihilated by Ad-
miral Togo's warships in the battle OF
that island in the straits of Korea.
History does not contain an account
of such complete obstruction of a ma,
tons naval force with SO little loss cc
that of the enemy. Russia's navy will
soon be strengthened by the one Dat
tleship and a few other naval vessels
which were interned during the wal
and which, under the terms OF the
treaty of peace, will be returned to her
These, though, will add little to bel
naval strength. Her Black Sea squad
ron is of no use to her outside of those
! waters. All the other warships she has
are a very few at Vladivostok and soma
almost worthless ones in the Baltic.

"A REMARKABLE CEREMONY.

"Wonders never cease" Who would
expect, even in this day of advanced re-
ligious tolerance and of closer com
muniOn between the churches Of diff
ferent denominations, to hear of such
a ceremony as that Of a Presbyterian
minister presenting to one of the nu-
pills Of his Sunday school a cross which,
at his request, had been blessed by &
cardinal of the Roman Catholic church?
Nevertheless, such an occurrence did
take place in Washington City last
Sunday, as we learn from the Rich
mOnd Journal. 1t was at Washington
Heights Presbyterian church and the
minister was Rev. E. Lawrence Hunt.
The occasion was the delivery of his
farewell sermon The girl was Miss
Marie Smith. who though a Roman
Catholic, attended the Sunday schoo;
of the Presbyterian church, and the
presentation was because of her pro-
ficiency in mastering the Gospel of st.
John. 1t was Cardinal Gibbons who
blessed the cross. In making the pre-
sentatiOn Mr.. Hunt said:
That a cardinal Of the Roman
Catholic church should bless a cross
given by a minister of the Presbv-
terian church Of WashinstOn to q
child as g reward for learning the
Gospel of st. John. will do untold
good to the Roman Catholic church.

roo MUCH PATEltNALISM.

The Washington Post in an editorial
under the above heading opposes the
proposition that the federal govern
ment take control of the insurance
companies of the country. 1t reasons
that there are many other lines of bus
mess of an interstate character in
which, if properly investigated, some
rascality might be found for giving
pretext for government control. In
it's reference to the steel trust and the
whiskey trust The Post holds up these
two as concerns doing an Interstate
business in whose management and
dealings with the people might be
found the necessary rascality to fur
nish the pretext for government con-
troll.
If the government starts out to take
supervision of all classes of business of
interstate scope whenever there is dis.
covered to be any fraudulent or othe.'
wrongful proceedings in the manage
ment Of the concerns it will surely
have it's hands full. There are few
corporations or private concerns of
any size doing any kind Of business
whose transactions are confined to
only one state.
We endorse The Posts assertion
that if the people cannot be entrusted
to manage their insurance business
they are not fit for any thing but to
pay taxes; and that paper might have
applied the remark to several other
matters under government oontro.
which should be left to the manage
ment of the people.
The Post says:
It is now proposed that the govern
lnent of the United States exercise su-
pervisory control of the insurance bus
mess. The excuse is that insurance
"vitally affects the great mass of the
reoDle and is national. not local. In its
application" If that view is to main
tain. will somebody please put ms
finger Gil a business that can POSSIBLY
