SPOKANE JOINS
DEFENSE Of
REFUGEES

The movement to form politi-
cal refugee defense organization in
Spokane has resulted in the issu-
ance of a call to that end, signed
by some of the best known men in
the city. Congressman Poindexter
is on the list.
The object of the organization is
the protection of refugees fleeing
to the United States from political
tyranny of other countries.
An instance is the case of Rudo-
WITT, the Russian whom the car
demanded because of his activity
for reform. Rudowitz has been re-
leased, but the cases of Jams Pour
en-, another Russian, and three
Mexicans are still unsettled. The
league offers no defense to GRIM
inals, but simply to men perse-
cuted for exercising the right of
free speech and thought, who have
fled to America. The Spokane call
follows:
We, the undersigned, unite in
calling a meeting for the purpose
of forming in Spokane, a branch
of the Political Refugee Defense
league, to be affiliated with the
national organization with head
quarters at Chicago, said meeting
to be held at the Office of Roche &
Onstine in the Zeigler block, room

use of drugs, and having prepared
for him series of antitOXins,
each adapted for the treatment of
a particular disease, and each cap
able of combating it's own disease
on very satisfactory terms indeed,
when the fate of the patient is to
be considered.
Further charging the vista of
the romance of medicine beyond
the points within which our feet
tread with fairly firm step today,
we might perchance forecast
time when through some definite
discovery the processes of healing
in the body might be highly expe-
dited. We know for certain, for ex-
ample, that in the wonderful white
cells of our blood we possess an
army of living units, whose duty it
is to attack disease germs gains
admittance to our bodies and to as
sist in healing processes at large.
With the eye of scientific faith
we might be permitted to dream of
a time when through scientific
means of terrifying and encourag-
ing the powers of this home army
of defense, so to speak, the inroads
of disease would not merely be
very materially prevented, but also
those processes through which
health might be regained, would
be made a matter of hours instead
of days, or it may be of days, in
stead of weary weeks or months.

Margary drew him out without
hurting him and kissed his yellow
head, He trembled all over and
was very glad to get into his cage
again. Margary talked to him and
brought him a tiny piece of nut to
eat, because he had had such an
unhappy time, and soon he was
smoothing his feathers and trying a
little song low down in his throat.
Margary knew then that he had for
gotten all about that dreadful
storm.

Special Correspoadence to The Press

LONDON, Feb. S-The following
article was written by DR.. Andrew
Wilson, who is today considered
one of England's leading physi-
clans.
BY DR.. ANDREW WILSON.
1t was the fixed belief of the an
clients that many living creatures
came into existence spontaneously
and the beginning of the germ the
DRY arose out of ludicrously SIM
pie observation made by Redi,
F1orentine physician, about the
middle of the seventeenth century.
He debated with his confreres in
Florence the question of the origin
of the maggots appeared in decom-
posing meat. The old view held, OF
course, that the maggOts originated
within dead and putrefying sub
stances. Redi, taking a piece of
meat covered the mouth of the jar
in which it was contained with
piece of fine gauze. He beheld the
flesh flies attracted by the decaying
meat coming to deposit their eggs,
after the manner of their kind, in
the decomposing substance. The
gauze, however, kept them from eff
fecting this natural object, with the
result that the eggs We're laid on
the subject of the guaze, and the
maggots there Matched out, whilst
the decay of the meat went on I'M
interruptedly, without single
maggot appearing in its substance
So the principle became fixed in
time that every germ born into
the world is the child and offspring
of living organism.
Turning to another feature OF
this wonderful romance of medi
cine in relation to the discoveries
which have been made regarding
germ life, we find an illustration
of a very strange, and at the same
time skillfully wrought on
scheme on the part of mankind
in making germ life conten'
against itself by what is known a
the "antitoxin treatment"
Taking such disease as dipl
iberia, for example, it is foun
that by inoculating a horse wit
pure cultures of diphtheria germ
there is developed in the blood c
the animal in due time certai
principles to which the name {
| antitoxins is applied. These sui
stances are the direct result of tn
germs breeding and multiplying
the blood of the animal the bloc
acting in this case as soil to tn
germs viewed as seeds. If no
these antitoxins extracted fro
the horses blood be used in tt
form of an incubation in the cas-
of human being suffering fro
diphtheria, it is found that the

disease running riot in the huma
body, to modify their growth, ar
thus to cause the disease to tern

A whole field of romance oper
before our eyes when we confer

the squabble occurred, was close but
that Reilly easily had the runner out.
general mix-up occurred when the
decision was given and Lewis prob
ably said less to Handiboe than num-
erous others of the players. Lewis did
not strike Hanidboe Or make any ef-
fort to do so. The umpire merely put
him out OF the game for objecting to
thedecision whereupon gronndkeeper
jumped into the scene and throwing
wide open his coat so that his badge
might be plainly be seen, placed
Lewis under arrest. Then it became
funny. Lewis was taken to the station
but Immediately the rub" ground
keeper who had been given a badge
aud some authority, was called down
by the Mansfield police. The Mansfield
plan in sending the story broadcast
to the effect that Lewis struck Han
diboe is evident. Having Lewis put
out OF the game would help Mansfield

hence the attempt to make the Of

A New Organization.

While not advertised to any extent ther,
was meeting fifty farmers in the cour
house, on Saturday evening, those presen
being called to hear an address by D. FL
Jones, of Freehold, on a matter that will
be of great benefit to the agriculturists IL
this neighborhood.
Mr.. Jones spoke on the subject of {
Farmers Exchange" Such an organi
cation has been in existence in Monmouth
county for two years. and it has grown
and succeeded beyond the fondest hopes
of its promoters. He said the object was
TO have central STATEN with an oversee1
or superintendent, where the producers
might send their products and have them
sold, thus doing away with peddling to
the middleman or to the wholesale dealer.
The persons in charge of the exchange
will keep posted on market prices all over
the country, and will be in position to
tell when and where to sell. The expense
of maintaining these stations is great, but
during the two years it had been in oper-
alton the Monmouth county institution
had made a profit that would warrant the
payment of twenty per cent. dividend,
but it was thought more advisable to lay
by a surplus
The Exchange is organized as stock
company. No member is allowed to hold
more than 100 shares, which are fixed at

evening 625 shares were subscribed by the
few who attended and there seems to be
every reason to believe that the affair will
be successfully carried out

Now for the Great Fair.

The first week in October is not far off
and it has already been put down on the
calendars of many people as week of i'm
portance, for on Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, October 5, 9, and
s, the Fair of the Burlington County Fair
Association will be held in Mount Holly.
1t is hardly necessary to elaborate ON this
event, for the popularity of this Fair is
far-reaching. Few people, young or old,
who do not know about the Mount Holly
Fair. Not very many years ago when the
old association reached point in its his
tory when 1t was unable to continue in
business, the gates of the spacious grounds
were closed. Other fairs were In exist
ence, as they now are, but, while they
were attended and appreciated as they
still are and will continue to be, there was
desire for the old reliable-the Mount
Holly Fair. A company of gentlemen
reorganized the association and by atten-
ton to the tastes of those who make this
the annual outing of their lives, succeeded
in bringing back the old-time popularity
and to-day the Fair is firmly fixed as
an institution that has come to stay.
For weeks after it closed last year the
Fair of 1908 was talked of as one of the
most interesting affairs eyer held, by the
old or the new association, but the manage
ment was not satisfied to rest on their
laurels. From the day the gates closed
last year efforts were put forth to get at
fractions for this year and to leave moth
ing undone that would keep up the repu-
tation of the Mount Holly Fair as "the
best on the list" The tretting list is well
filed, but while that is something that
pleases all, it is not the only thing to be
considered With this in view attention
has been given to every department
Special prizes have been offered for ex-
hibits in the household and agricultural
department. Silver cups will be given
to competitors in the poultry department,
and the vaudeville performances will be
of the highest grade.
Nobody will make any mistake in at
tending the Mount Holly Fair this year.
Each day will be feature in itself, the
speed programme and the entertainments
have been arranged so as to make every
day one of pleasure and interest. Make a
note-The Great Mount Holly Fair, Tues
day, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
October 5, 6, and 8.
