SCIENCE OF BACTERIOLOGY
WORKS CHANGES IN DIARIES
Dangers From Bacteria in Milk Often Grossly Exagger-
ated, But Nevertheless Cooperation Needed
to Remedy Condition

To the Editor OF The Washington Times
During the days OF the civil war many
wounded soldiers required surgical at
tention: and as the result Of operations
performed many lives were saved. In
spite Of that many poor fellows failed
70 recover from the wound and the sur
geon's knife Since that time the whole
knowledge Of bacteria has sprung into
existence. as well as the facts relating
10 the germ origin Of disease. As a re-
suit a complete revolution has been
wrought in many lines In surgery, for
instance. the practice has changed so
much as a result Of the discovery of
bacteria and their methods. habits and
characteristics. that were a surgeon to-

knowledge Saves Lives.
The practical side OF this knowledge
Of EacteriOlOgy is that many lives are
saved by its application 10 surgery. and
an operation is more likely 20 be sue
cessful now than IL was thirty years
ago.
This knowledge Of bacteriology is
working almost as many changes in
dairying as II has done I'm surgery. and
the result will be similar-the saving

Roosevelt Should !
coed Himself


Should Theodore Roosevelt
succeed himself as president of
the United States? This is one
of the questions that will not
down. 1t is now being given
serious attention all over the
country, and is destined to be the
absorbing political theme until
the meeting of the national repub-
lican convention next summer.
So far as this paper is concerned
we say without hesitation or men,
tai reservation that Mr.. Roose-
welt should succeed himself, and
we will give a few of the reasons
why.
In the first place, Mr.. Roose-
welt should be given an oppor-
tunity to accept or decline the
nomination by the next national
republican convention because of
his splendid work during the past
seven years as the executive head
of this nation. He is the greatest
president this nation has ever
had. not excepting those popular
heroes, Washington and Lincoln.
He is today not only the greatest
American, but the greatest world
citizen, a fact more fully appre-
ciated outside than inside of the
United States. The republican
party in national convention as
sembled should recognize those
magnificent qualities which have
made him the acknowledged
leader of the human race.
In the second place, party sue
cess demands the nomination of
MI. Roosevelt. No man who is
antagonistic or even Indifferent
to the so.called Roosevelt poll
cies can be elected the next pres
ident of the United States. The
people will not accept a policy of
reaction. Who can carry to a
successful issue the Roosevelt
policies better than Roosevelt
himself2 No one. Who better
than he can compel congress
through the force of public senti-
ment to pass laws that curb pred
atory wealth and regulate with
justice to all the swollen millions
of the trusts2. No one. Through
Mr.. Roosevelt's insistance more
measures are afoot that are des-
tined to be of lasting benefit to
the nation and the individual than
were ever inaugurated in any two
previous administrations in the
history of the country. The plain
people who do the voting are
going to see that these measures
are carried through to a success
full issue. Roosevelt is the man
to put them through. There are
a good many thousand voters in
this country who are very much
in earnest. about this matter.
They are we'll meaning citizens,
but they wear no party collar, OF
if they do it fits rather loosely.
If they are not given an oppor.
tunity to vote for Mr.. Roosevelt,
they are going to vote for the
man who most resembles him, anc
that man is William Jenning:
Bryan. They are not going t.
vote for an echo; they will insis'
on the real thing. It may be too
early to say that no man in the
republican party except Roose.
welt can defeat Bryan, but it, is
not too early to say that putting
up any other candidate would
seriously endanger party success

FREE FOR ALL FIGHT.
One Man Dead, Two Others Shot and
Three in Custody.

New York, Feb. 2S.-One man
is dead, two others have serious
bullet wounds and three men are
under arrest as result of
free fight in a Third avenue
saloon today. Michael Gallo. the dead
man, is said by the police to have been
prominent in the Black Hand society,
and their theory is that his murder
was in the nature of an act of reprisal
for a breach of confidence. The men
under arrest are Louis Indorf, the bar
tender in the saloon; Louis thinner
man, a contractor, and. Lorenzo Con-
dess, who lives in the vicinity of the
saloon. Indorf and Zimmerman are
wounded. Zimmerman was the only
prisoner who would talk. He told the
police that he had gone to the back
room of the saloon with a woman
about four O'Clock this morning. There

shot followed by a regular fusillade and

with smoke that it was impossible to

the place they found Gallo lying dead
on the floor with four bullets in his
body. Five more bullet holes were
found in the walls of the back room

TALK OF COMPROMISE.
House and Senate Much Interested in
Outcome.

The report in Wednesdays State
Journal concerning the negotiations for
compromise Of all outstanding "ad-
ministration measures" has caused
much comment. The anti-Stubbs peo-
pie claim that it was inspired by
Stubbs. and the Stubbs people deny
that they gave cut any information.
AS matter of fact the information
came TO the State Journal from num-
Der of different sources, and the nego-
tiations are proceeding along the lines
suggested.
Senator Fitzpatrick is said to be still
standing for his primary election law,
but a number of his strongest hackers
in the senate are weakening in their
support. One of them said today: II
want to see a compromise made, and
the primary law should not stand in
the way. 1 will vote to accept the
Stubbs bill if they will cut out the
secret ballot and second choice amend
ments 1 believe other senators think
exactly as / do on the subject"
1t is said that the administration
leaders are now insisting that the ad-
ministration prohibition and anti
gambling bills, which the senate has
rejected, shall be included in the COM
promise. They want the senate to pass
these bills as part of the price for the
recession of the house on the 2-cent
fare and maximum freight rate bills.
The house thinks it is giving too much
in exchange for what it gets.

was recommended for passage.
