Boral and Hsyburn-.a Contrast.

Bristol Herald.Courier.
A few days ago Senator Hey
burn, of Idaho unlurled t h e
"tloody shirt in the senate and
waved it frantically before his
colleagues; waved it where all
could see it, aud where those who
did not know the civil war was
over might rally around it. His
vicious TRADE was provoked by
the presence of a statue Of Gen
eral Robert E. Lee in the nation
al ValhaIla, which gave him an
opportunity not only OF vilify-
Ing the memory of that soldier
and statesman whose fameis is i'm
mortal, but OF abusing and SLAM
dering the South.

attitude of Senator Heoburn is

placing of General Lees statue

War On tuberculosis.

Charlotte News.
The News has given a lot oi
space to publication OF facts re-
lating to tuberculosis. 1t does
not begrudge any amount given.
In our opinion no more laudable
work has been undertaken in
years than that DISCRIMINATING
this deadly disease. Figures dem
onsfrate the fact that with prop
er sanitation, and by observing
ing rigid health regulations, the
spread Of tuberculosis may be re-
duced fifty per cent.
In South Carolina unusual in.
terest has been taken in t h G
work of preventing and curing
the white plague. Exhibits have
been held in Charleston, Green
vile, Columbia and other South
Carolina cities, and the people
seem to be deeply stirred to the
necessity of combating t h is
enemy to life and health. 1t is
encouraging to observe t h a t
in this State interest is growing
rapidly in the subject.
In this connection we think it
worth while to publish the fol-
lowing vital facts concerning the
disease an the means of fight
ing it, which haye just been sent
out:
tuberculosis orconsumption is
q germ disease.
1t is usually transmitted from
one person to another by tXpec-
toration.
Transmission is avoided if the
expectoration is Immediately de-
stroyed.
There are IN Philadelphia more
than 10000 cases OF pulmonary
tuberculosis. Of these over 5000
die each year, and practically as
many new cases take their place.
One person is dying every three
minutes from tuberculosis in the
United States.
The disease usually attacks the
young in the prime of life. The
economic waste to the colnmuni.
ty as well as the amount of per-
sonnl suffering is enormous.
All this could lie avoided if one
case never infected another.
If a person keeps strong and
vigorous he Is not apt to con-
tract tuberculosis,
The best preventives are fresh
air in the homes, schoolrooms
and work-rooms, proper food,
cleanliness, temperance in q III
things, and a regular lille.
Dirt, dust, dampness and drink
predispose to consumption.
Ii taken early tuberculosis can
be cured; if neglected, it is al
most always fatal.
The campaign against tuber.
culosis Is a worldwide, united ef-
tort to put the above principles
into practice. We're this done,
consumption in Il lew years would
be exterminated.
Consumption is pre.eminently
a social disease, and can only be
oNercome by social force.
