SCARLET FEVER.
4 Scourgc of White Races in All
 Ages and Countries.

Now that smallpox, thanks 10 com- pulsory vaccination, has become q rarity in civilized communities, scarlet fever steps forward as the worst of the cruptiye diseases of childhood. II Is malady Of en- ormous antiquity. Thucydidcs, writ ing nearly 800 years before the be- ginning of our era, called 1t a heritage from the remote past, u has scourged the white races in all ages and all countries, and the phN- Sicians of all schools have leVCled their heaviest artillery upon il. Yet it remains a puzzle unsOlVed and an enemy unconquered even to-day. We are in doubt as 10 it's cause, and there is no drug or antitoNin that will cure 1t. But despite all this tho death rate from scarlet fever IS steadily declining, and We may eX- pect 1t 10 decline more and more as the years go by. The reason TOT this. I take it, lies in the fact that he modern doctor is q great deal more sparing with pills and powders than his predecessor and great deal moro lavish with water, air as antiseptic. In the old days it was customary to dose scarlet fever pa tients with all sorts of violent remedies in staggering quantities and as d result many of them died. To- day medicines are but minor auNil- iaries in the siCkroom, and bot doctor and nurse devote thcir main energes to preventing spread of the infection.

E. ]. Clarke. who is always looking
for an opportunity to oblige Cash
mere people, is unfortunately and I'M
justly being criticised this week
Last week he suggested to Manager
Taylor of the Wenatchee ball team
that if ne would make arrangements
to have a passenger coach attached
to the local freight on Monday morn
ing it would give several an oppOrtu-
nifty of witnessing the Wenatchee-
Vancouver ball game, particularly la
dies, who are not allowed TO ride in
cabooses. Mr.. Taylor got busy at
once and secured the coach, but Mr..
Clarke had no assurance from either
him or the railroad company that
the extra car accommodation asked
for would be a certainty. Many peo-
pie who saw the game drove; others
who would have gone had they re-
ceived notification in time remained
at home. Now the railroad company
is making ''holler," ana it will prob
ably be a cold day when Cashmere
gets another accommodation from
Jim Hill in the way of special coach.

cATTLEMEN WIN FIGHT.
Feeding in Transit Rates Must Be
Given Them.


Washington, D. C.-ThS interstate
commerce commission IN an opinion
by Commissioner Prouty handed down
a decision in the case Of the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association vs..
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
Railway company and fifteen other
railroad companies. This case is one
that has attracted wide notice in Iowa
and elsewhere and yesterdays deci.
sion is a partial victory for the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association.
1t appeared in this case that to
facilitate the handling of cattle for
feeding purposes the defendants have
permitted them to be brought in from
various breeding pastures, stopped
off for time to be fattened and then
sent on to market at the through
rate, plus some additional charge for
the privilege, and plus also the local
rate from the feeding point for the
additional weight which the cattle
take on in process of fattening.
This feeding in transit privilege is
granted by the tariffs of the defend.
ant railroads in the states west of
the Missouri river, but is not granted
to Iowa points. The commission held
that this results in an unlawful dis
elimination against Iowa points and
the complainant shippers, but rates
OH live stock from Iowa point to Chi
cago were not found to be unreason-
able. The grouping, however, it is
held should be revised, as at present
they apparently discriminate against

TO RETRY oil CASE
APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT
WILL BE MADE.
TOO MUCH is AT STAKE
keIlogg's Big Suit Will Be Pushed
With More Energy Than
Ever Before.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 24.-Presi-
| dent Roosevelt last night announced
in unmistakable terms the determine,
| ton of the administration to proceed
with the prosecution of the Standard
Oil case despite the decision adverse
to the government handed down by
the United State circuit court OF ap-
peals on Wednesday.
This appeal the president thinks in
no way affects the merits of the case
and he makes known his decision to
cause the action to be brought again
before the courts in such shape, il
possible, as to prevent technicalities
interfering with decision based up
on the actual issues involved. The
statement in the matter, made public
last night by Secretary Loeb follows:
"The president has directed Attor-
ney General Bonaparte to Immediately
take steps for the retrial of the Stand
ard OIL company case. The reversal
of the decision OF the lower court
does not in any shape or way touch
the merits of the case, except IN so
far as. the size of the fine is concern
ed. There is absolutely no question
of the guilt of the defendants or OF
exceptionally grave character OF the
Offense.
"The president would regard it as
gross miscarriage of justice If
through any technicalities OF any
kind the defendant escaped the pun
ishment which would have unques- |
tionably been melted out to any weak
er defendant who had been guilty of !
such offense. The president will do |
everything in his power to avert or !
prevent such miscarriage of justice.
With this purpose in view the presi-
dent has directed the attorney gen.
eral to bring into consultation Mr..
Frank B. Kellogg in the matter and
to do everything possible to bring the
offenders to Justice"
