The enormous mortality from diph-

years has formed the subject of In
vestigatton by medical men for some

PUBL1CrTY AND CORPORATION
MONEY.
avs the New York World

s3 Says the New York World OIL Ses'
terdav:
IN SO far as corporation contribn'
tons are concerned, they are expressly
prohibited BY the act of Congress APP
proved January ed 1907. Every cor
porntion that contributes Is liable 70
fine of 5000, ard every officer or
director of such corporation who con-
q sents to any contribution is liable not
only to Il fine or $1,000. but to I'M
prisonnent for one year.
as Yet Mr.. George r. Sheldon, treas
,irer of the Republican National Com
nittee, frankly admitted in an inter-
view with the New York World last
week that he would accept funds from
my corporations that cared" to con-
4 tribute.
How can these things be? Would
d Mr.. Sheldon encourage his friend, the
& corporation, to defy the law? Would
lie invite his friend, the officer or
director" to an act which would make
such officer or director liable to PEN
itehtiary sentence2 Would not these
4 friends of Mr.. Sheldon naturally wonder
why the man that made such contribu-
ton should get stripes while the man
who accepted got the applause OF his
colleagues?
How the Republican National Com
1nittee will attempt to reconcile the
ayowed intentions of its treasurer
with the provisions of the Federal
statute, TIN Times Dispatch does not
venture TO say. AS for the Democratic
National Committee. it has nothing to
Year from Federal threats. 1t has en-
9plicitly declared, not that it desired
contributions from corporations. but
that 1T would not accept them; not
that it would invite gifts of nnwholc-
some size, but that it would not ac-
cept any gift OF more than $4,000;
not that 1T would publish its receipts
after the election. but that it would
publish them before.
