ment to II, an amendment requiring
common carriers to furnish all the
facilities for freight transportation To
all shippers az equal rates. He offered
the first amendment to the rate bill
making express companies and express
cars common carriers. He introduced
the first bill requiring notice before
injunctiuns are issued. President
Roosevelt has since recommended the
same thing In his message to Congress.
| Ga May 8, 1906, he introduced a
resolution iDquiring into the real
causes of so many fatal railway acct
dents and got the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission at work on the
subject in fundamental way.
He had bill before the House pro-
NIB ting gambling in the price of
farm products and of stocks and
bonds. 1t is difficult undertaking
but Campbell got favorable report
GA his bill from the committee just
before Congress adjourned II he can
stop stocks and grain gambling, 1t
will be of itself enough to make his
fame secure. A business man 10 Phila-
phia wrote him about the matter as
follows:
Philadelphia, Pa, May 81, 1905.
81 note In this mornings Philadel-
phia papers that you contemplate In
Producing bill to regulate gambling
and specializing in Wall Street. In
view OF the immense amount Of what
Is done 10 this line, very much doubt
whether you will ever be successful,
but want to congratulate you, how
ever, as you are the nrst man that l
heard of speaking along the lines that
from a business point Of view are
absolutely correct. Ii this country
would pass a law forbidding the SELL
ing OF stock that man did not own,
we would never have any more panics,
excepting one that would be caused
by the absolute demoralizing Of bust
ness, aod stocks and bonds would be
sold according to their actual value,
based on iaterest paid and earning
capacity. All the ansettling OF bust
ness is caused by either the short or
long selling OF stocks, and | for one
sincerely hope that you may succeed "

tuberculosis from Cattle
and Hogs.

Burton Rogers of Manhattan, KaDs.,
who was one Of the speakers before
the international congress on tubeT-
culosis, which has just closed at
Washington, passed through the city
yesterday enroute home. Mr.. Rogers
thinks tn meeting one of the NEST
important ever held at Rome, Italy,
in 1911, will be OF more importance
because OF plans outlined for work at
the meeting just closed.
the most important feature Of
the meeting" he says, "was the
unanimous balIef among those pres
ent in the transmlssibility TO man OF
bovine tuberculosis. Koch, the dis
coverer uf the germ, stated at the
1901 congress that IL could not be
transmitted to man from the lower
an mails, and commission was Apo
inted to Investigate this feature.
Their report was submitted without
comment, bat clearly shows that COWS
and hogs, especially, may transmit
the germ to the human race, aud
many deaths result therefroA.
"The great problem is to get the
farmer who raises the hogs or sells
the milk from them to realize this fact.
There are many ways in which the
germ may be transmitted to the milk
or butter, and the farmer who sells
the product scarcely knows how 1t is
done. My idea is to get government
cooperation in stamping out the evil.
Every hog or COW sent to the mar
kst should be tagged 80 that the
inspector, when he discovers diseas-
ed animal, may notify the man who
sold it, and other live cattle ana hogs
may be inspected aud treated for the
disease"

Cigarette Evils.

1t Is possible that the refusal Of
mercha nts. manufacturers, and proft s.
sional men TO employ boys addicted
TO the cigarette will do more TO check
the evil than all the laws passed or
contemplated.
When boy knows his future chance
to earn livelihood depends on his
quitting the ill-smellinR ciragrette,
the knowledge will doubtless have
more effect on him than dozen par
ents' or pedagogues' lectures upon the
subject. The beauty Of the thing is
that ue manner OF deceit will avail,
for the clgarette-smoking boy carries
u literal sign manual OF his vice Oh
his fingers. A Chicago boy confessed
recently that out Of ten places TO
which he applied for work the head
OF not one had neglected to ask him
IL he smoKsd cigaretts. 10 number
OF Instances he was made TO show his
forefnger. Few people Will DE sorry
even II the action OF the employers
results in cutting off some of the
profits of the cigarette trast. The
dividend paid 10 brain, body, and
muscle will more than compensate
