THE PELLAGRA PROBLEM BE.
COMES MORE SERIOUS.

The more the perplexing problem of
pellsgra is studied the more serious it
becomes. Almost no satisfactory light
has yet been thrown on this mysterious
disease. despite the amount of study
which has been given to it by the med1
cal experts.
That this version of the situation is
correct is seen from the official report
made by DR.. c. H. Lavindcr, of the
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service, as the result of recent visit
he made to the State hospital for the
insane at Peoria, Ill. DR. Lavinder found
forty to fifty cases in the hospital,
which cares for about 1920 patients.
The theory that pellagra is caused by
a corn diet was hardly borne out by
the discovery that corn products are
used but sparingly in the hospital, not
over two or three times a week, and
the quality used is excellent.
A striking fact discovered by DR..
Lavinder was that the disease has been
in the hospital for many years, though
it has not been hitherto recognized by
the hospital physicians as pellagra. DIR.
Lavinder says he has found this true
elsewhere. In other words, pellagra is
not a new disease by any means, as is
so generally supposed, but one which
has prevailed for many years. Latter
~, however, it appears to be growing
more common.
The conclusion of DR.. Lavinder is that
pellagra is likely to become a public
health problem Of greater proportions
than can at the present time be real
iZed

next year. There has always been
vigorous seed of latent disaffection
with the excuses of protection in that
section. In 1890 there was not half
the intelligent understanding of these
excuses that is now entertained con
corning the Aldrich- Payne measure;
but it was sufficient to make the House
go Democratic by ninety.
If Minnesota. Iowa, and Kansas
should next year repeat their perform
ance of 1890. and there should not be
another change in the membership of
the House, the Sixty second Congress
would be Democratic. It is by no
means impossible that those three
States may come near repeating the
1890 performance; but if they do, they
viii not stand alone. They will carry
with them many Congress districts in
other States.
The Presidents defense of the meas
ure which is now law, has fairly raised
an issue inside the Republican party
wherever that party is represented in
Congress by people who voted against
the tariff bill. It is useless TO deny
this; every newspaper and every pol
itician and every aspirant for Con
gressional honors as against an "insur-
gent" Republican, will take this view /;
and the voting masses will take it.
Therefore, as the Republican primaries
go. it viii be apparent the Republican
party is going. We shall at least learn,
and learn early next year, how far
the revision sentiment of the party is
prepared to crystalline its tariff views
into Independent political action.

WHY CREMATION OF THE
DEAD ISN'T POPULAR.

Cemetery superintendent, holding a
yearly convention just like less mel
ancholy organizations, declared them
selves in accord with the view that the
time Of compulsory cremation of the
dead is not far distant. In support Of
this expressed opinion it was pointed
out that cremation has grown, not ex-
actly in popularity, but in favor as a
sanitary means of disposing of the dead
until now the number of cremations
yearly is more than double those Of
the preceding ten years.
This question of cremating the dead
is not wholly an economic or sanitary
one; in the main, it is sentimental. In
some cases religious creeds and strong
prejudices are maintaining a stubborn
resistance TO the idea of destroying the
body by casting il into furnace.
In countless instances cremation is
viewed as a sscrilege. and so, indeed
il must be treated until with the pass
ing Of years the horror Of it is edu-
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1909-09-20

Gated out of the general public's mind.
1t Is singular that incarceration
should appear 10 be so much more
dreadful a thing than the burial OF the
dead IN the molding earth. To those
who favor cremation it seems that
every person ought readily to appre-
eiste the sanitary advantages of it. but
inasmueh as they do not, the time when
cremation becomes universal depends
altogether upon the amount of enlight-
eminent on the subject necessary to
overcome a prejudice based upon a
tender sentiment.

COMMENT ON PRESIDENT
TAFT'S WINONA SPEECH.

The carly comments of the national
press on the speech of President Taft
at Winona are about what was TO be
expected. The papers which tradition
ally ,sympathized with the high tariff
program find the Executive utterances
highly satisfying Those which have
been persistenJly dissatisfied with the
tariff measure. are frank in dissenting
from the Presidents view.
But it is highly Illuminating that
the authority and leadership OF the
President have not been potent TO
modify opinions that were entertained
before his speech. From all the &C
counts that have come out of the West
il is apparent that the division within
the Republican party has been in no
wise healed. A vast majority of Re
pubicans throughout the great Middle
West are thoroughly dissatisfied with
the tariff. The Presidents speech, in
stead OF serving to reconcile them TO
the tariff. seems 10 have the effect of
extending their disaffectiOn 10 the Pres
ident himself. Having hoped for words
Of cheer from him. for substantial as
surance of his sympathy with their
disappointment and purpose 10 assist
in its early mitigation, they hear him
declaring that the tariff bill is the best
ever passed by the Republican party,
and therefore the best ever passed.
They receive the cold comfort of sug-
gestion that, even as to those respects
in which it could yet be improved,
there is no chance of action till after
another Presidential election.
We are bound 20 say in fran1ness
that the Presidents Winona speech,
unless it shall be greatly modified by
later u5terances, can only serve to
weaken the Republicans in the Con
gressional struggle in the critical West

THE SUNDAY EVENING TIMES
GREAT POLAR BEAT.

When the Sunday evening edition of
The Washington Times was put out as
a candidate for the favor of the news
paper reading public, it was with the
firm belief that there was a genuine
demand for such paper; a field to be
filled; a work to be done. For six days
in the week evening and morning pa
pers succeed each other at such short
intervals that there is never a period
of more than eleven hours between
publications. Sunday, however, was,
until the advent of the Sunday evening
edition, a "long dry SPELL" there was
a lapse of full twenty four hours
without any newspaper at all.
Now, the world keeps right on re-
volving, and the procession of events
never stands still. There is no logical
reason why so long hiatus should
exist without a newspaper. Especially
is this true when it is considered that
the Sunday morning newspaper fills its
field as a NEWSPAPER less satisfac-
torily than any other paper of the
week 1t is a great blanket sheet,
thrown together during the week pre-
ceding its publication, compelled in
many cases to 60 TO press hours
earlier than the editions of other
mornings do, and surrounded with
physical limitations of mechanics and
time which make it utterly i'm Jossible
that il should be thoroughly efficient
news purveyor. All the more reason,
then. why a Sunday evening paper
should accommodate the public by fill
ing in the long gap and giving the pub
lie what the Sunday morning paper
= cannot provide, and what no morning
paper can possibly furnish.
A magnificent illustration of this
function of the Sunday evening edition
of The Washington Times was given
yesterday, when the people of the Ma
tional Capital were given the splendid
story by Gordon MscKay, covering the
first narrative of Peary's aides of his
Experiences in the polar hunt. These
men had a great story for the world,
and it came just at the time when the
world must wait a full day for tex
eopt in the three cities of Washington,
baltimore, and Philadelphia, which are
provided with Sunday evening news
papers of the Munsey system.
The belief that the public wanted a
Sunday evening newspaper has been
borne out by the splendid patronage
accorded 10 it. The conviction that
there was a great news field to be filled
has been indicated by many notable
news achievements of the Sunday even
ing paper; but in no case more notable
than in this first publication of the
great story from North Sydney which
The Times gave to its Washington
readers on Sunday.
