WHAT REPUBLICAN, ORGANIZATION FACES.

Republican organization in New Jersey is at stake, and It is acknowledged,
curiously enough, that the worst blow 1t could receive would be the election OF
Everett Colby to the Senate for another term. 1t vas said by a grat masters OF
the art Of var that a general, In order ITO prevent defections fatal to his cam
would, If necessary, be justified In inviting a losing battle. But party
managers are OF generals N 10 not study military strategy. Senator Colby
is Tot a Republican organizaton candidate except that lie las beer forced upon
the Organization He is a proclaimed Independent; he is conducting a nde-
pendent campaign of his own, and. If elected, he will acknowledge no party
obligation. With his election Republican organization in Essex must collapse
What excuse can it have the for existence? The real Republican organization
has already been boldly claimed for the Colby management, which will ate once
assert that claim after the election. The effect pono organization in the State of
an independent Republican triumph and the virtual wiping out of Republican or
ganizahon in Essexc cannot fail to be serious. The outcome will be a new deal in
the party leadership 1t will mean a party revolution.

Levi z. Letter estate, beside the income
from 81, 700, 900 placed in trust. Joseph
Letter received $4,000 a month from the
estate. When he dropped $4,000, 900 in
the wheat pit his father came to his
rescue and assumed $4,000. 900 of the
burden.
When he died, however, he charged
each one of the children up with the
money they had received from him be-
fore his death. Therefore 'Joe" Letter
has to pay interest on 3d. 900, 900 that he
dropped in the wheat pit. Lady Suffolk,
who was Miss Daisy Letter, receives
an income of s1g5, 900 a year, as also
does her sister, Mrs. Colin Campbell,
formerly Nancy Letter.
Lady Curzon's letter, In which she
told CT her financial straits, was writ
ten to Hugh Crabbe in February, 1907.
A short time after this Lady Curzon
and Lord Curzon received a set
tlement in part of the L. u. Letter es-
tate. 1t appears that he was paid too
much money, and because of this he
was informed that his income from the
estate would be forwarded to him less
$40, 700. His lordship expressed his
horror, at this and said so plainly in
a letter to Mr.. Crabbe.

New Method is Being Employed in
Philadelphia Hospital
New York Herald.)

Two physicians and two nurses
have been inoculated against ty-
phoid fever at the Methodist Hospi-
tai in this city, the first known cases
of vaccination" against this disease
in this country. In view of the gain
in new typhoid cases the city's ply
sicians are considering the wide
spread use of the incubation to
check the disease.
The incubation was performed by
DR.. Harlan Shoemaker, the hospital $
pathologist On November 9 he made
the first incubation of himself, DR..
Miller, an inferno, and Miss Hender-
son and Miss McBroom, nurses. He
had intended to reserve a report of
the incubation for medical publica-
ton and a report to the County
Medical Society, but when he was
asked today if he had performed them
he admitted he had.
Each of the four subjects includ-
ing himself, was inoculated twice
with dead vaccines At that time lie
had not fully standardized his serum
However, the reactions in himself aud
the three others were satisfactory,
the fever and pain lasting about four
days.
Il would not trade my immunity
today for a considerable sum of mon
ey," said DR.. Shoemaker.
THE reactions after the first in
oculations," said DR.. Shoemaker,
were we'll defined. The interval be-
tween the two NEGOTIATIONS should be
about eleven days, according to the
experience of the surgeons in Eng
land and Germany who experimental
with such incubation before it was
taken up in this country. The in
oculations are made hypodermically,
and they take very quickly, some.
