HE HOOK WORM.

He has announcement sometime ago OF
horrf Scovery that the anaemic con
ord n of the poor whites in some Sec
doy1s of the South is not due to lazi-
less nor yet to bred-in-the-bone nc
.countness, but is really due to the
presence in the blood Of a kind of
parasite which has been named the
hook worm, furnished considerable
copy for the sensational news pages.
The impression was given abroad that
while the hook worm was causing
such havoc meath sunny Southern
Skies" yet with the proper w%herewith
the parasite could be routed, put to
fight and eradicated beyond recall.
And that were this micrObe, animal
culae, lazy bug, Or whatever other
euphonious name the little villain
might be called, removed, slaughter
ed, exterminated, cleaned up, then
where now the sallow, careless and
indolent Cracker" houses the fearful
hook worm, there would sport the
gladstone maid and sturdy youth
with cheeks that might vie with the
roses of the valley and limbs that
would make those of the Venus de
Milo and Adonis take a ~retrograde
redundancy, and all the while real
high art music would be chanted by
the feathered denizens of the woods,
rejoicing in having found other diet
than the inflated and boistrous hook
worm.
The picture was very alluring and
it only needed some generous multi
millionaire to come to the front with
the cash to work the wonder. And
John D. Rockefeller was Johnny OF
the spot for a million. He got lots
of advertising, but that should not
be considered. Rather let us look
at the good he intended to do and
give him credit for all he might have
accomplished for the afflicted crack
er" of the hook-worm infested our
tain side.
But alas for the plans Of men, Now
comes a certain Susan Lawler, maid
or matron, the news dispatches fail
to say. New York's hygienic expert,
after an investigation through the
South, who declares that there are
ten times as many sufferers from the
hook worm in New York as in the
factory districts of the South, and
many of the victims, she AYERS, are
among the wealthy classes in the
best Manhattan residence districts.
Just think of that! Hook worm in
New York, and right up among the
money class! And such a common
name!
Up to going to press we have not
heard Of John D. or any other in his
money class offering to do anything
for the unfortunate New Workers. It's
up to the crackers to send con-
dolences.

The farmers of Magnolia Township, Putnam County, Illinois, have equipped a S16,OOO schoolhouse to take the place of several old-fashioned schools. The more distant pupils are brought to school each day by two wagons, at the cost of 9 cents per pupil daily. Four teachers are employed, two In the grades and two in the high school branches, which include domestic science and agriculture. The lowest wages paid to any teacher is SGO per month and laboratories are provided for the searching of science. The pupils of this school are lacking none of the ad- yantages that are given the children in town. The school, of course, costs more than the old-fashioned school, but eco homie advantages can be readily seen. In the well-settled rural districts 1t Is possible to consolidate four or more dis tricts and the fact that transportation
 is provided for those who live a consid- erable distance from the school cuts down materially the savings and results in conducting one school where four were previously supported.

By the laws in force In the Indian Territory an action at law may be in- stituted against person usurping an office, either by the State or by the party entitled to the office. This Is in lieu of scire facias and quo warranto quo warranto. But according to the decision of the Court of Appeals of the Indian Territory in Re Le Bosquet v. Myers, 103 Southwestern Reporter, ITO, the statutory provisions apply only to public officers, and not to proceedings for the custer of officers of a private corporation.
 The United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York, in United States V. Delaware, Lackawan- na and Western Railroad Company, 152 Federal Reporter. 269, holds that a shipment from New York City to Buff falo by way of New Jersey and Penn sylyania Is interstate commerce, and that, therefore, the giving of rebates on such shipment violated the inter- state commerce act. As supporting au- thoritles are cited Hanley V. Kansas, etc, R. Co.,, 1S7 U. S. 617, 23 Supreme Court Reporter, PA, 47 L. Ed. 333 {; Lord V. Steamship Co.,, 102 U. S. 541, 26 L.

 In order to protect the levees in the Desha Levee District against the we'll known procliyities of hogs to root, and thus weaken the levees, the Arkansas Legislature has provided for the sum- mary destruction of hogs running at large on such levees. This law Is in Ross V. Desha Levee Board, 103 South western Reporter, 3SO, by the Arkan- sas Supreme Court, held to be a valid exercise of the police power of the State. The court says: ''The State. where 1t has the power to provide for destruction of property, may authorize this to be done summarily in cases where the property is of no great value and the emergency Is such as not to admit of delay"
 According to the decision of the New York Supreme Court in Brooklyn Dis tilling Company V. Standard Distilling and Distributing Company, 1O5 New York Supplement, 264, the New York antitrust law does not invalidate a lease of a distillery to a corporation or ganized to create a monopoly in the manufacture and sale of alcoholic and spirituous liquors, even though the lessor knew that the motive of the lessee in taking the lease was to create a monopoly. The court takes the posi- tion that the law does not prevent a person from buying or leasing property in furtherance of the creation of a monopoly. The controlling point with the court was that the lessor did not in any way become party to the ille- gal combination or participate to any extent in the scheme to avoid the law.
