Schleswip Leader: G. M. McAhren
finished the cement work for the
town last Saturday and the fore part
of the week put in the long cutters
extending from the Jepsen saloon
south and around the corner down to
the G.. Kruse hardware store. These
many improvements put in by the
town and property owners show for
themselves and if they are kept up in
the future it won't be many years
until Schleswig will be one of the
prettiest little towns in the state.

RETURNING PROSPERITY.
The Northwestern Road Puts on More Help.

Among the many evidences of re-
vival in business is the fact that the
Chicago Northwestern Railway Co.
has decided to increase its working
force here. A few months ago. in
order to reduce expenses, the COM
pany laid off an assistant in the bag
gage room and one of the freight
clerks. The company has recently
employed two men to take the place
of those who were thus recently laid
off. This is gratifying not only to
the community. but especially to the
regular employees of the company.
who have been compelled to work
over time by reason Of the reduction
of the force. 1t is in line with what
other railroad companys are doing
throughout the country and we hope
in the near future to see restoration
of the full working force on all the
railroad lines

TO FIGHT CONSUMPTION
Steps the State is Taking to Stop Spread Of
tuberculosis.

Iowa's annual contribution White
Plague is over 1000 human lives at
financial loss of more than So. 900. 900.
And tuberculosis is preventable
disease. And it is almost inconceiv-
able that a state whose people are
among the most intelligent and pro-
gressive in the nation will permit
such an appalling sacrifice to be made
year after year
But tuberculosis is a preventable
disease and can be stamped out. A
vegetable germ is the cause of our
trouble. We must make war on it.
We must destroy it, or it will destroy
US. We must depend upon popular
education in our combat against con-
sumption. 1t. is a disease Tof the
masses transmitted bv social contact
and therefore amenable to control.
Intelligent repressive measures will
have immediate effect in the limita-
tion of this disease.
Therefore has the board Of control
inaugurated an extensive educational
movement in Iowa. Lectures, liter
allure and the press all are agencies
employed by the board to give the
people knowledge of presentation and
cure of tuberculosis. And it is desir-
able to bring not -equisitlon every
social and educational force in the
state, for the combat against this
plague belongs to no one class but to
all the people. The control of tuber-
culosis is community matter de-
pendent upon organized society. but
the people must be taught that it is
an infectious disease transmitted by
a germ found in the sputum from the
concumptive person; that such diseas-
ed person is dangerous only when he
coughs and his sputum is not destroy
ed in its moist state; that splitting on
sidewalks public places of resort.
using common drinking cup. kiss
ing. or Handwriting are methods by
which consumption is spread from one
person to another: that tuberculosis
is Frequently found in cattle and hogs
and may be communicated in milk
and meat. This knowledge will
bring power to the local government
and repressive measures will be ad-
opted which will suppress the ravages
of this community.

1t is rather embarrassing for Mr..
Caswel and the many Iowa demo-
Gratis who were shouting for Hearst
four years ago and who filled column
upon column Of space in extolling his
broad craftsmanship. his excellent
judgment and his great patriotism,
to find that he is now arrayed against
st. Bryan. To be called chameleon
has never been considered a cornpli-
ment and when Hearst applies the
epithet to Bryan he does it with such
earnestness as to make one think that
he knows what he is talking about.

s'Where was Caswell'' seems to
have become an important question in
connection with the late democratic

Senator Dolliver. Mr.. Caswell bold

The exhibition of politics at the
grand lodge Knights Of Pythias was
little short of disgusting. This is
the most representative body of
men in the State, and it is simply
disgraceful that the annual sessions
should be marred by the actions of
the many men who want honors in
the order. At one time it was an
honor to be a member. of the grand
lodge, but if this sort of thing is to
continue many men will become
disgusted and quit, the order, to say
nothing of attracting new and de-
sirable members. For weeks past
the State has been flooded with cir
cular letters in behalf of candidates
for various positions in the lodge,
and some men are posing too much
as Knights of Pythias while running
for State Offices.

HAD GOOD FIGHT.
Mayor Mahon, of Greenville, In Fisti-
cuff With j. w. Norwood.

Hon. G. Hayward Mahon, mayor of
Greenville, had a rough~and-tumble
fight on the train at Hodges Thurs
day, with Mr.. J. w. Norwood, of
Greenville, who is president of banks
in Greenville, Wilmington, Ashevllle
and elsewhere.
Mr.. Mahon was on his way home
from Columbia, where he had been
in attendance on the State Demo-
cratic convention as a member of the
Greenville delegation, and MIR. Nor
wood had been to Hodges on busi-
ness trip. When the train stopped at
Hodges, Mr.. Norwood started to get
aboard and encountered Mr.. Mahon
on the platform.
There has been bad blood between
Mr.. Mahon and Mr.. Norwood for a
long time, on account Of politics.
Mr.. Norwood fought Mr.. Mahon
very bitterly during the lastmunicipal
campaign. The two men have pass
ed each other frequently on the
streets of Greenville, but yesterday
was the first time they had met out
side the city. Mr.. Mahon is said to
have stated, after the fight was over,
that he could not afford to tackle Mr..
Norwood in Greenville, while he was
mayor of the city. AS Mr.. Norwood
started up the steps of the coach at
Hodges, Mr.. Mahon caught him by
the collar and made some remarks to
him, the exact nature of which could
not be ascertained. Mr.. Norwood
also caught hold of Mr.. Mahon, &C.
cording to eyewitness, and jerked
him backwards, and the two men fell
to the ground.
Both have good grit and their long,
standing animosity lent great .unc-
ton to the fight. Mr.. Norwood got
the advantage in the fall and landed
on top and began fighting vigorous
ly. Capt. BILLY" Smith, the con-
ductor, had given the signal for the
train to start when Mr.. Norwood
started up the steps, and the train
pulled out and left the two men
clawing at each other on the ground.
Some of the passengers gave the
alarm, however, and the train was
stopped and run back to the de-
pot. The men were pulled apart
and put aboard, in separate coaches,
and the train proceeded on it's way;
In the scrimmage Mr.. Norwood
got a bad cut on his face. He is re-
ported to have explained that in the
fall his chin struck against the end
of cross-tie or the iron rail. Mr.:
Mahon also had considerable blood
about his countenance.
Mutual friends were on the train
and these kept the antagonists sepa-
rate and they went on to Greenvllle
without any further collision.

daughters and three sons to mourn

Mrs. John Lake Dead.

EDGEFIELD, May 2l.-News has
reached here by cablegram of the
death of Mrs. John Lake in Canton,
the wife of the Rev. Jno. Lake,
Edgefeld's earnest and beloved mis-
sionary in China. Exactly one year
ago Mr.. Lake married in China a
young woman of Ohio, the widow of
a deceased missionary and herself a
very eminent and indefatigable work
er in the mission field. Mrs. Lake
was only about q years old and a
woman of lofty Christian character
and very high educational attain
ments. On account of this sad news,
Edgefeld is in mourning, deep and
earnest. The Rev. John Lake is not
only universally beloved in Edge
field, but throughout South Carolina.
