Lay Tracks at Sighs.

Columbia, November 30.-On petit
ton Of the railroad commission, the
supreme court today granted an order
requiring the Columbia, Newberry and
+ Laurens railroad to show cause on the
18th of December why writ Of man
damus should not be issued compell-
ing the road to comply with the order
! Of the railroad commission for TIE
erection Of a passenger shed and ad-
ditional side tracks at Slighs, sta
ton on the said railroad. in Newberry
county. The order was this afternoon
served on Mr.. ". G. Childs, president
of the Columbia, Newberry and Laur-
esn road, in this city.
The petition Of the railroad COM
mission, presented today by Assistant
Attorney General DeBruhl, sets forth
that a petition was received by the
commission in April from residents Of
Sighs and the neighborhood, stating
that the accommodations furnished at
that point by the Columbia, Newberry
and LaurenS road for both passenger
and freight business were unsatlsfac-
tory and inadequate, and that hear
ing was had in regard to the matter
BY the commission on June II. At
ter the presentation Of both sides, the
commission issued IN order on the
railroad requiring taat additional side
tracks be built by August | and that
shed for passengers be erected BY
Septeu1ber |. This order was served
on June 18th.
On petition Of the railroad, a re-
hearing was had in the matter on June
18th, and after further presentations
the previous orders were affirmed. The
petition to the court states that more
than sixty days have elapsed since
this second order was issued, aIA that
neither the side track nor the shed has
been built. It Is set forth that the
duty required IS purely a ministerial
one. and the court is retit:nned to
grant an order requiring the railroad

Chicken Scabies.

A poultry fancier from Fruita,
Colo, writes: MY chickens have
Il disease affecting the feet. The
feet swell, causing lameness. The
disease terminates fatally within
year. No one here knowsw hat it is"
Answer. The disease is what is
known as scabies of the legs of
fowls. 1t is a parasite. that, to the
casual observer, looks very much
like the one causing mango in cat
tie and scab in sheep. The disease
lives in the feet and legs of fowls.
1t is different parasite that efs
fects the head, causing Favus.
This parasite is known as the Sar-
copies mutans. The parasite lives
under the scales covering the legs.
1t is transmitted from one fowl to
another, but the contagion is not
readily transmissable, for the fowls
often remain in healthy condit-
ion a long time in the midst of
diseased ones. The common bred
fowls seem to resist the contagion
longer than some of the pure
breeds. The thin skinned breeds
such as the Cochen China and the
Dorkins are perhaps more suscep-
tible.
The treatment will consist in
removing the diseased fowls from
the flock; clean up the litter, dis
enfect the roosts and the place
generally Scrub the legs of those
affected with soap and water to
soften the scales; then remove the
scales and apply Heimerich's po-
made. Two days after applying
this ointment, wash the ointment
off with soap and water. Other
remedies, such as 3 per cent. So
luton of creoline, or l to 20 of
carbolic acid, iodine ointment or
any other strong antiseptic, if per-
sisted in would proba bly, effect a
cure. DIR. GEO. GLOVER,

The AUTHORIZATION
Convention.

j. f. Wolters, chairman OF the com
mittee on arrangements for the State
anti-prohibition convention to be held
in Houston on Monday, October y,
yesterday gave out the following
statements
The State anti-prohibition conven-
ton will be held in Turner hail. at
Houston, Texas, on Monday, October
y, 1908,
3 A rate of one and one-fifth has been
secured f,om all of the railroads in the
city as the convention rate, good on all
trains reaching Houston Sunday night
and Monday morning, returnable I'M
ill Wednesday,, October Is. All the
railroads will, however, run their last
popular excursion to Houston and
Galveston at a rate OF one-half OF one
fare for the round trip. This rate is
good on all trsins reaching Houston
Saturday night or Sunday morning,
and good to return on from Houston
Monday night, October u AS the

the prohibition element and possibly
result in committing the party to pro-
hibition.
AS matters stand today, the demo-
cratic party is not committed to State
wide prohibition, Considerably less
than half the voters declared for the
submission of the question. 1t is still
an open question so far as the party is
concerned and so long as it is an open
question democrats can and ought to
fight out their differences within party
lines.
There is nothing in the republican
party of Texas, There are some good
men that belong to it, but the party it
self is powerless to direct the affairs
of this State Why should Germans
make the mistake of parting company
with the dominant political power
merely because of their displeasure at
a single act of convention? Especial
ly when such a mistake would have
the inevitable result of bringing about
what they are SO anxious to defeat.
The Post repeats, it does not believe
that the citizens of foreign birth will
commit the blunder of deserving their
thousands of anti-prohibltion demo-
cratic friends and thus sacrifice the
principle which is so dear to them.

the primary voted a direct pledge to
