The Fear of Germs.

Science in its teachings concern
ing germs seems to have infiamed the
public mind to such an extent that
fear takes the place of reason, and
new terror has been added to i'll
health.
When science has determined that
disease is a germ disease it has
taken long step toward its control,
If not to it's eradication.
Yet the public seems to think that
as soon as it is certain a patient has
a germ disease that patient is to be
treated as an outlaw, and something
like shotgun quarantine established
tuberculosis, or consumption, has
been the scourge of the race for many
generations. Its character has not
changed, but its treatment has great
ly changed.
In the first place the physician
knows how to protect the family from
contagion. In the old days it infect
ed families and was thought to be
inherited. 1t is now treated as
contagious disease, and every pre-
caution is taken to prevent the con-
veyance of the disease to those in
contact with the patient.
These precautions are simple and
effective and go far to deprive the dis
ease of its terrors. But if families,
friends, neighborhood, communities
and cities are to be shaken with fear,
If they are to become panic-striken,
and patients are avoided, denied care.

ance, then the last end of the matter
is worse than the first.
1t may be that in order to educate
public opinion to sense of the dan
ger from bad practice that the work
has been overdone.
At any rate there is need for some
words Of assurance from the medical
fraternity, which will allay the panic

Among the presidential POSSIBLE
ties none have made the advance in
public esteem in the last year that
Governor Hughes of New York must
be credited with He has given a
number of demonstrations since his
entry to the high Office he holds that
New York has a governor in fact as
well as name, governor free from
strings and with the force of char
acter to do that which he believes to
be right, regardless of outside influ-
ences. In many ways Hughes is an
other Roosevelt, with the difference
welt would accomplish as much or
more in reforms with great deal
less noise and consequently a great
deal less disturbance of conditions
which for the welfare of the people
at large should maintain equilibrium.
AS the Republican candidate for pres
ident next year, New Yorks governor
would unquestionably sweep the
country. 1t is ripe for the direction
of just such a man, one in whom all
the people would rest confidence and
feel security from radicalism, while
at the same time enjoying assurance
that the rights of none would suffer
lack of protection.

DENVER RoUTs THE COMBINE

We see a statement that the retail
yer has been made to yield The 10
per cent reduction in prices has been
made good, it appears, and consider
able more. Sugar is said to be re-
duced by the retailer from 6 4 to 5
cents per pound; sirloin steak from
IN to IL "; eggs from 35 to 271
and butter the same; lard from 12A
to 8 cents, and sausage the same
These are very marked reductions.
1t is stated that the officials of
the Retail Merchants association of
Colorado claim themselves decided
to make the reduction spoken of. 1t
is shrewdly suggested, however, that
bine by officials of the court accounts
in full for the reduction. Attorney
General William H. Dickson expresses
yet satisfied with the reduction, and
suggests that legal proceedings
against the Retail Merchants associa-
ton will be pushed as hard as ever.
He regards the reduction as convinc-
ing on the point that prices have all
along been too high, that the inflated
ed from the people, and that Interior
means, that is, something aside from
the general business conditions made
the unwarranted initiation of prices
possible; intimating very plainly an
Illegal and extortionate one, and that
there is room for further reductions.
The secretary of the Retail Mer-
chants association of Colorado adj
mits defeat, and says that they can
not any longer control the situation.
He speaks of the card" price being
declared off, and says: Dealers will
have to take care of themselves, at
least for a time" This talk of the
secretary is very plain admission
that the card" prices were combina-
| ton prices, and that the trust was
holding the people up on them. Tho
abolition of the card" prices tempo
| rarily sets the dealers free from al
| obligation to maintain those prices
and is notice to every trader that he
must take care of himself 1t is {

The law requires the Board to meet

Monday after election in November,
so that the new order will mean eight
more regular sessions of the Board in
year. 1t is said that the resolu-
ton was adopted at the suggestion
of Messrs. Peisen and WEIGH, the tax
ferrets, in order to do away with the
practice the Boards Iad III the past of
allowing bills in vacation which
would therefore never receive publica-
ton in the official papers as required
by law AS we understand it there
will be no more bills allowed during
vacation of the Board and the Board
will be. here every first Monday in
