STRONG HOPE OF
CURING CANCER

ALBANY, n. Y, Feb. ia strong
hope OF curing cancer. or at least
greatly ameliorating tho suffering oil
cancer patients by means OF innocula-
tion is held out In the report OF Henry
Gaylord, director OF the cancer laoora-
tory of the state department OF health
at Buffalo, This hope is based on
extended experimentation In tho last
year in the innoculation of yarious
animals, mainly rats, with the can
Ger virus
II appears says the report that
where the resistance OF the animal is
lot sufficiently awakened by one In
incubation of the tumor, this resis-
tsnce can be heightened by repeated
doses and, In a considerable proper
tlon OF cases, immunity can be raised
to point that Will bring about u
cure. II Is needless 10 point out that
this process OF repeated vaccination.
which has cured in the proportion OF
20 10 40 in rats. might well be applied
TO those cases Of late cancer In human
boiuss in which surgery has nothing
to offer and the outlook is hopeless.
AS We strongly urged the legisla'
ture In previous reports, the time has
come when we should begin the eX-
perlmentation with human beings
To do so, 1t is necessary that mum.
Der OF patients should be maintained
for this purpose. Funds sufficient 10
enable us to maintain ten patients is
the least amount that can be OF value
If this work Is TO be undertaken"
Other Investigations conducted by
the laboratory have had to do with
the prevalence oil many forms OF can
Ger In FISH and the possibility of lnfec-
ton by human beings. 1t has been
found that cancer OF the thyroid is
of frequent occurrence In fish OF the
trout family
1T is remarkable coincidence"
says the report, that the area of
the United States which includes the
greatest concentration OF human can
Ger cases. is almost Identical with tho
area through which the various mem.
bers of the trout family are distrI-
buted"
Statistics are given TO show that
cancer continues to increase. Tho re.
port SAYS that In the United States
Il has increased from nine per 100 900
In 1850 TO 4S In 1900, an
average OF about 65 TO 1901 and an
average OF more than 20 in 1906.

WANTS THE TROLLEY LINE
EXTENDED TO BRIGHAM

Brigham, Feb. 14.-Brighom City
people are anxiously awaiting The iinal
decision of the promoters OF the pro-
posed electric interurban road which
will connect this city with Ogden by
extending the line Of the ogden &
Northwestern from tho Hot Springs to
this city, Work On this end OF the
line has been promised for a numbor
of years. and franchises were granted
the company in 1906 by the city coun.
ell of this city and the county com
missioners These franchises have
now expired Devld Eccles and EnGi-
neer Joseph A West of the company
were In this city few days ago, when
Mr. Eccles talked over the proposition
with some OF the leading business men
of town. II is very likely that a
street car system Will be constructed
in this city during the coming sum
mer II the city will grant the company
q renewal OF their franchiaes and
other small matters can be adjusted
The line Will probably run from the
depot to the high school building, also
tapping some Of the other principa,
streets. Engineer West met With the
city council and asked for renewal
of the franchise. which is now under
consideration by the committed on
laws and ordinances, which will l!kely
make a report at the next regular ses-
sion OF the council.
Tie extension of the line from Hot
Springs to this city would just COM
plete another link In the cha'n Of IN
terurban roads that eventually VIII ex-
tend through the state from Utan
county and probably tapping southern
Idaho towns.

cured his purse containing about 5000
In cash The officers were Immediate

the police think was recently impli-
Gated In certain other transactions of
a shady nature. She WAS located at
a negro habitation at 4 o'clock Sunday
morning, and landed In jail Her name
is being withhold pending further in
vestigatiops.
According to the story given out by
Sergeant Anderson. he received a tele-
phone call at about midnight from the
White Shlp saloon. A Japanese was
on the wire and was so highly eXcit-
cd that at first the sergeant could
make neither head nor tail TO what
he was trying to say, but finally he
calmed down somewhat and 1t was
learned that the Japanese, In com
pany with a number OF his country.
men and colored men and women,
had been sitting in the rear OF the sa-
loon. When the Jap reached into his
purse to get the money for a round
OF drinks he had ordered he found
that someone had lifted his money.
Shortly before this. according TO the
story told by the Japanese TO Ser
geant Anderson, one OF the colored
women, who apparently WAS n strang-
er to everyone in the crowd. got up
suddenly and left the saloon.
