Whooping Cough.

This is more dangerous disease than is generally presumed. It will be a surprise to many to learn that more deaths result from it than from scar let fever. Pneumonia often results from it. Chamberlain s Cough Remedy has been used in many epidemics of whoop. ing coughs, and always with the best results. Delbert McKeig of Harlan
 Iowa, says of it: "My boy took whoop- ing cough when nine months old. He had it in the winter. got bottle of Chamberlaim's Cough Remedy which proved good. cannot recommend it too highly" For sale by all druggists.

NEW TARIFF BOARD SOON TO
BEGIN WORK.

The first meeting of the new tariff
board authorized by Congress and ap-
pointed by the President has been held
and it is announced that early in DC
tober it will get down to work. 1t Is
further announced that the members
of the board are going to devote prsc-
ticallv all their time TO their duties
as members of this commission
While the plans of the board are not
disclosed and doubtless viii come to
light gradually as the work of investi-
CATION progresses, 1t is pretty clear that
it is not going TO be the policy to make
this body a perfunctory one. as has
been believed in so many quarters and
as has been sought, too. on the part Of
many powerful influences
President Taft in his Winona. Mimi,
speech gave it out that he expected the
board TO go into the cost of Produc-
ton: and. more than this, if the mem
bers OF the board contemplated a mere
perfunctory inquiry into the question Of
discrimination, they would not need 70
occupy all their time in the duties Of
the board or commission.
The tariff board has been emasculat-
ed greatly as compared with the idea
of a strong tariff commission which IS
advocated by a large element in Con
gress. But If it goes 10 the bottom OF
the question of cost Of production II

THE FLOOD OF ART WORKS
FROM EUROPE.

There is one feature and one effect
of the new tariff law on which prac-
tically everybody is able to unite in
expression of commentator. That IS
the free admission of art works more
than twenty years old. and the prompt
movement of American-owned collec-
tions from European galleries.
There was no good reason to be urged
against this change in the customs law.
The artists. the only persons whose
products could possibly have any CON
Germ over the competition OF the pauper
paintings of the old masters, were
unanimous in wanting art works
brought in free. The owners Of great
collections wanted to bring their prizes
to the United States, but naturally did
not want to paw the great duties on
them. The pubic, which in the long
run gets the great benefit, was natur-
ally in favor Of the change
For many years Americans have been
buying the best art works of Europe
whenever they were placed on the mar
ket. Americans have come to be high
lv unpopular at art sales because they
were willing to pay prices that Euro
peans could not meet. Now that the
gates are opened, these collections will
come to these shores. They are indeed
al1eady coming at such rate as fairly
to amount to food.
All this again will further stimulate
the American ambition to secure the
best things which are to be had in the
old world. American artists viii be
inspired by the opportunity to study
these masterpieces; and in the par
tieular direction in which American
development has been least satistac-
tory. there will lie every reason to eX-
pect gratifying improvements.
1t is worth while now to recall, 70
American collectors of European art
the implied understanding with the
great public which caused the tariff
change. It was that these works should
be placed where the public should have
opportunity to benefit by them. Doubt.
less there will be recognition of this by
many great collectors. Others should
recognize that they owe to the natior
the privilege of studying and enjoying
the works that have thus tardily beer
admitted.

MRS. BELMONT PLANNING A
BOYCOTT ON MEN.

II is but few days since Mrs o. II.
P. Belmont inaugurated the movement
for suffrage by giving luncheon to
thirty five Of the elect among the suf-
fragists. II was an ultra-fashionable
function, with much smilax and many
cbrvsanthemums. This led to the i'm
preston that Mrs. Belmont had chosen
TO make the fight for suffrage by way
of the luncheon table. and that the
warlike methods of the English suf-
fragettes would not be used. But it
appears this was an error. Mrs. Bel
mont, too, is bres thing fire, and has
given out an interview as to ways OF
achieving suffrage for women that is
warlike in tone. Mrs. Pankhurst her
self could not have been much more
militant.

A BACTERIOLOGIST FOR THE
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

The Commissioners of the District of
Columbia have taken proper step IN
appointing bacteriologist for the Dis
trict. Dr.. J. J. Kinyoun was named
for the place. and viii devote himself
entirely-to the systematic and scien-
tific study of conditions in Washington
which have contributed 10 make the
typhoid problem a grave one.
DIR. Kinyoun is equipped for the work
both by intimate knowledge of general
local conditions and by scientific and
technical knowledge. He has occupied
the chair of pathology and bacteriology
in the medical department of George
Washington University
Typhoid, its genesis and the processes
of its communication, is still good
deal of a mystery to the medical pro
fession, as it is one of the terrors to
people at large. There is vast field
of opportunity for investigation that
will widen the scope of knowledge con-
corning it and give the people protec-
ton against II; and the work that viii
be accomplished viii be a work, not
merely for the people of Washington
but for all of humanity.
It is expected that the Public Health
and Marine Hospital Service will CO.
operate with the local authorities in
the Investigations that are to be con-
Quoted. In this connection there arises
an interesting question concerning the
obligation upon the people of Washing
ton TO have the cost of such work as
this charged up TO the revenues of the
District. In its largest aspects, this Is
a scientific study whose results viii be
!. of great value to the whole country
1t is typical of a vast deal Of the
activities which are centered in Wash
sington because Washington Is the Ma
tional Capital The Capital is un
avoidably made more or less an ex
pertinent station for the benefit OF tho
rest of the country; and it may fairly
be questioned whether all the expenses
involved in such work should be borne
by the people of Washington. Sucf
cases as this well illustrate the pro
priety Of the arrangement by which the
nation and the local citizenship share
the burden of making the Capital City
both model city and a headquarters
for sociological experimentation and in
vestigstion.

RUSSIAN AMBITION IN FAR
EAST NOT CURBED.

The prevailing notion that designs
and ambitions of Russia were thwarted
beyond repair by the outcome Of the
war several years ago in the far East
appears to be open 70 serious question.
In fact, the more the situation of Rus
STA in eastern Asia today is looked into
the more it is clear not only that the
Russian advance toward the Pacific
has not been permanently halted, but
that such check as it was given by the
victories of Japan has served TO turn
Russian energies into channel Of
more intelligent direction.
From tire 20 time in the last few
years there have come reports of the
movement of vast hordes of Russian
people from Russian Europe into ST.
IBERIA, there to become permanent set
tiers.
An American writer, Frederic J. Has

figures on the extent Of this move.

To the Editor Of The washington Times:
Being a real estate tax payer in the
District iustifies my making some com
ments on the recent poultry regulation.
L live in suburban section where
chickens have been allowed 70 run at
lsrSe. According to this new regula-
ton, we are required TO confne them.
l am informed this regulation is justi-
fed on sanitary grounds.
About the only thing we can keep
in the District without being hampered
by regulations are cats. And 1 ask if
one rooster can wake up three persons
in five minutes how many persons can
two tom cats, located on the back
fence. wake up in the same length OF
time? And this reminds me that those
who hate chickens usually love eats
where they failed with poultry their
success in cat breeding goes beyond
their most sanQUine expectations.
When two fighting cats tear up your
garden Of flowers or vegetables, and
YOU request the policeman 70 notify
your neighbor to pen his cats up, does
he Iope off on schedule time 20 do so?
Not much He tells YOU cats are not
down In his Instructions. It is unlaw-
ful TO shoot cats, and. as they are
night providers, and you are asleep. you
can't shoe them away. A rooster crows
two or three times at midnight and the
same at daylight. and the regulations
pronounce him a nuisance. but cats can
keep up running fire all night and no
regulation to bother him. He may have
an empty beer bottle SHE'D at him from
a second-story window. but does no
damage, except TO the bottle. the cat
lives to sleep another day and fight

EARLY DIAGNOSIS
NO SURPRISE HERE
Health Officers Expected
Leprosy Verdict of DR..
Hansen.

The statement Of DR.. C. Armaugr Han
sen. dtscoverer- OF the leprOsy bacillus.
before the Second International Lep-
rosy Convention at Bergen that John
Early is a leper caused no surprise
among officials Of the District Health
Department.
One OF the physicians who had charge
OF Early while he was quarantined in
this city said today that at no time was
he in doubt as to the nature of the lat
ter's ailment. Notwithstanding the con-
tention Of DR.. Morgan Buckley. or New
York. that Early was not suffering from
leprosy, but from a non-cOntagious skin
disease, peculiar to workers in pulp
mills. IN which Early had worked before
mis- arrival IN Washington.
Confirmation Of the diagnosis of the
Health Department has been received
Dy the Treasury Department through
the State Department IN the form OF
consular report from Felix 5. S. John
son, American consul at Bergen, Nor
way, and is as follows.
Consul Johnson's Report.
Il have the honor 10 report that at

vention which was held from August 10
10 10, at Bergen. DR.. 6. Armauer Han
sen. dlscOverer OF the leprosy bacillus,
stated that ne had found the bacillus
I'm a piece OF skin taken from the Ameri-
can soldier, John Early. who contracted
leprosy in the Philippine Islands. MI.
Early's wife had sent piece Of the
soldiers skin to DR.. Hansen for exam
iuatiOn.
Much doubt has existed regarding
this famous case. The doubt has been
dispelled by examination of the highest
authorities. The above decision viii
confirm what has already been estab-
lished in Washington. The clinic and
laboratory diagnoses which were made
by Prof Ehlers, Of Copenhagen, and
confirmed I'm New York are now fully
Ieaffrmed.'
Do Not Fear Suit.
The Health Department has always
been convinced that IL was absolutely
right In its position with regard TO
Early and has never felt any uneasiness
as 10 the probable Institution OF a suit
for Illegal detention" said one Of the
officials today.
There are no higher authorities i'm the
world, officials here say, than DR.. Han
sen and Dr. Ehlers. both OF whom have
absolutely confirmed the diagnosis made
Ina this city.

This is a program more severe in
many respects than the suffragettes in
England have yet adopted. They have
used all sorts of weapons, bro7mstieks
and brickbats, but they have not tried
the boycott. They have done every
thing hut hold themselves resolutely
aloof from having anything to do with
the men.
1t might as well be admitted now
that if Mrs Belmont can unite her
forces on the plan of strategy she su2
gests, the men viii give way. 1t would
be losing campaign for them from
the outset. What heart would a man
