DIR. FROST MAKES REPORT.
Gives Views on InfantIle Paralysis
Monkey Serum May be Cure.

Des Moines, Aug. 20.--"Public
health must be protected by the SCI
gregation Of infantile paralysis
cases."
This simple plea embodied the SEN
timent OF the 125 physicians assem-
bled in the house of representatives
to discuss the treatment, prevention
and possible cure of the latest health
peril in Iowa. 1t was made by DR..
T. u. McManus of Waterloo, a mem
Der of the state board Of health. He
stood supported by cane, living
example of the terrible effects of the
disease. He is permanently crippled
and walks by the aid Of cane and a
crutch.
The meeting was called by the
state board Of health to hear an in
formal report of DIR. Wade H. Frost,
the government expert who has been
investigating the epidemic at Mason
City, and to discuss ways and means
of preventing the spread of the dis
ease.
President A. C. Moerke of the
state board of health called the meet
ing to order. The report of DR.. Wade
H. Frost was first given. Owing to
the fact that he intends to continue
his Investigations for another week
a full statement was not made by
the government expert.
Though in the last two weeks
there have been only three cases re-
ported at Mason City, / am not sure
the maximum prevalency of the in
fantile paralysis epidemic has been
reached" said DR.. Frost. There are
no two epidemics alike and from
experiences in other states the maxi
mum development has been reached
in August or September" DR.. Frost
told of the preventative measures
taken at Mason City and enumerated
the sanitary precautions prescribed.
DR.. Henry Albert, state bacteriolo-
gist from Iowa City, followed with
the encouraging statement that ex-
periments might result in a possible
cure being found in serum from
monkeys into which the germs of the
disease had been inoculated. He
said the outlook was reasonably
hopeful. DR.. Albert stated that n.y.
drogen peroxide would kill the virus
and recommended it's use by gargle
or spray to those who had been ex-
posed.
Following DR.. Albert came DR.. w.
L. Bierring of Iowa City. He touched
on the proven fact that infantile pa.
ralysis is transmissible. He en-
phasized the difficulty of diagnosing
the disease.
REST is essential in the treatment
Of infantile paralysis" said DR.. Bier

noticeable that the arms are better
than the legs. This is accounted for
by the fact that patients often walk
too soon. There should certainly be-

Friday, Sept. 2-----------P Parade day
Des Moines, Aug. 23-The gates
for the forty-sixth annual Iowa state
fair, the greatest fair and exposition
ever given In Iowa, and in many re-
spects officials assert, the greatest
in the world, will be thrown open to
the public at Des Moines, Aug. 20,
and continue open until Sept. 2.
The greater part of the preliminary
work for the fair has been disposed
of already. Entries in a majority Of
the departments have closed, space
has been let on the grounds to the
show and stand men, stalls have been
let in the various stables and quart
ers leased in the pavilions and ex.
position buildings to exhibitors.
The live stock department of the
Iowa fair is its big department,
though the machinery and other de-
partments have no equal in the coun-
try.
Fine Exhibits.
The horse show and the cattle
show will run high this year, and If
Secretary Simpson of the state fair
board, and Superintendent Curtiss and
Pike of the horse and cattle depart
ments, respectively, have any knowl
edge Of their departments, which they
surely have, these shows will out
rank in excellene and size any nation
al horse or cattle show ever held in
the world.
The entry list for the cattle de-
partment of the fair shows that $50
animals will participate. The entries
in the following breeds will show
how well balanced the show will be:

In the horse show over LOO ami
mails have been booked, a show
which surpasses any horse show ever
held in the world. According to Sup
erintendent Curtiss of this depart,
ment, this exhibit of high class hors-
es will be absolutely superb and one
that has never seen an equal.
The new feature Of the Iowa state
fair this year, advertised for its his
toric value, is to be what is called
Frontier Days in Iowa." This is to
be the night show in front Of the
amphitheater, succeeding the Last
Days of Pompeii' and similar shows.
This one, however, is new and origin
al and could not be put on In any
other place than at the state fair.
There will be the usual fine dis
plays in all agricultural departments
fruit, field crops, vegetables, flow
ers, machinery, etc. The educational
exhibit of farm crops arranged under
direction of the state college is al
ways good. The college building is
of itself great feature. The compe-
tition between individual farms for
prizes will be a good feature. Boys
and girls will try for college schol-
arships in judging and in domestic
technology.

TO PROBE STOKES'S BRIBERY
CHARGES IN CUMBERLAND.

BRIDGETON. Sept. 28.-When the
Cumberland county courts convened
and the grand jury was sworn, Supreme
Court Justice Trenchard created m
thing of a sensation in his charge with
a suggestion. to the grand jury regard
ing the illegal sale of liquor, especially
by the druggists upon prescription, after
which he took up the subject of bribery,
saying:
There has lately appeared in the
public press of this county specific and
persistent charges hat bribery was
practised at the recent primary election
in various parts of the county. These
charges have been SO often reiterated
that they are now notorious. The court
does not know what basis of fact there
may be for the complaints. Whether
there be evidence showing bribery will
be for the grand jury to determine"
The foreman of the jury is Edward
H. Corson, of Millville. In view of the
~oft-repeated allegations hat there was
sent into the county $4,000 for the anti
Stokes campaign, the charge of Justice
Trenchard is looked upon as significant.

mission at Washington to compel the
Lackawanna road to show upon what

out of defendants gross earnings; and
what, II any, the reason has been, and
is alleged and assigned by the defend
ant company to be, for the making Of
the said increased charges and fares,
and what the proper n proportionate
share of the expense of operating the
defendants railroad should be prop
erly ~chargeable to the salt passenger
traffic, or whether any of said costs
of operation be properly chargeable TO
said passenger traffic, and, If so
charged by the defendant, why the
same is charged.
He asks that such information. proof
and disclosures on the part of the de-
PENDANT shall be full, fair and COM
plete and in such form that the details,
summaries and deductions from the
said information, and the methods By
which the said deductions are made by
