STATE STANDS WE'LL.

Congressman Elect L. B. Hanna
has returned from a trip east, where
he finds a decided sentiment in ia
vor, of fair tariff revision and
a revival of industry and prosperity
since the election of Taft. Mr.. Han
ma says the west stands well with the
financial circles of the east, and is
coming into it's own. Of North
Dakota's financial standing he says:
"Our own state of North Dako-
can almost handle all it's crop
itself now, where Just few
years ago we had to go east to T
get almost every cent with
which to get our. crops into the
ground, and then get them har-
vested and marketed. This has
resulted in two fold benefit to
the west. Our interest instead
OF going east stays right here at {
home in the pockets of our farm p
ers and can be used for build
ing up the state and her enter
prises More than this, it shows
the east that we have something
out here-something worth while
and it gives them confidence
in the west and they are willing
and even eager to get their mon
ey invested out here. Since we
are not taking their money to
raise our own crops with they
must put it in something here
so they are willing to put 1t into
new and legitimate enterprises
which help to build up the. west 4
and make it more prosperous and
wealthy"

MONTHLY WEATHER BULLETIN


The state board of health has be-
gun upon the publication of a
monthly bulletin, which shall inform
physicians and officers of local
boards as to the progress of the work
of the state board, and inform them
as to modern methods and discover
les. The idea is a good one, and
the wider the distribution of the
bulletin the better should be the res
ults. The first issue gives some
startling facts with reference to the
annual toll claimed by tuberculosis,
and should impress upon the pub
lie mind the wisdom and necessity of
uniting in the general warfare upon
this disease, Of which it is said:
tuberculosis still continues to
be the Captain of the Hosts of
Death. 1t is responsible for more
deaths and a greater economic
loss than all Of the other dis
eases. In comparison with it
all other social problems of
medical character sink into insig-
nificence. In the United States
100000 lives year are sacrificed I
a year on its altar, while the
whole world counts its victims at
a million q year. In our own
state of North Dakota one death
in ten, excluding stiIlbirths and
those having died from violence
is due to it. At this rate assum-
ing our population to be 500, 600,
there will die in our state $4,000
of those now living will die of
tuberculosis. This is a fearful
tribute to pay to a disease that
is generally acknowledged to be
preventable. The value of hui
man life cannot be measured in
dollars and cents, but estimate
the economic loss from tubercu-
losis as conseryatively as we may
we are at once struck with
amazement at its enormity. Some
idea of the comparative magni-
tude may be obtained when we
recall that In the four years of
our civil war we lost from
wounds received in battle 2O5,-
900 men, only about as many
as are sacrificed each year to
consumption On decoration day
