For Propor Care Of Tuberculosla.


According to the National Associar
ton for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis, New York state leads
In the number of beds for consump-
tives provided up to May 1, with 5,476
beds; Massachusetts, Is second with
2,403 beds; Pennsylvania, third, with
2.347 beds; Colorado, fourth. with 1.48S
beds; and New Mexico fifth, with
1.104 beds. AS yet, not one state in
the country has made adequate pro-
vision for its consumptives. New
York has set Itself the task OF having
mo uncared-for tuberculosis In 1916"
and several cities In other parts OF
the country have adopted similar pro-
grams. The national association
says that tuberculosis will not be
stamped out until all cases of this
disease are cared for either In their
homes or In institutions. With this
end In view, efforts will be made to
increase the number of hospital beds
In this country to at least $4,000 by
May /. 1911.

Blame for Green Mountain Wreck.
Des Moines, Iowa. - Poor road bed
is given by the state railway com.
mission as the cause for the disas-
trous wreck at Green Mountain, on
March FL. when Rock Island train
detouring over the Great Western
road, plunged into the ditch, killing
fifty-one people and injuring and
manning many others.
The commission probed the wreck
to the bottom, several members OF
the board Were at the scene OF the
wreck shortly after II happened, and
hearing lasting several days was
held.
The Rock Island train was a dou-
BILE header, two passenger trains be-
Ing combined. II ran over the North
western road from Cedar Rapids to
Marshalltown and proceeded north
over the Great Western.
The two engines were OF the silky

John White, the Great Western pilot.
were too heavy to turn on the "Y" at
Marshalltown, Hence they were back
ed up, the tender leading.
The commission could not approve
of this system, saying that there was
nothing to warrant the failure to turn
the engines or at least an attempt at
1t, save the, desire on the part of the
trainmen to make up time. This, the
commission held. is not sufficient
reason.

TWO BRAVE DEMOCRATS.

In declining to be parties to Patter
sons bogus primary State Treasurer
Folk and Frank P. Hall have shown
that they are brave men, true Demo
Gratis and citizens who have a correct
conception of their duty to their State.
They may never again obtain public
place but they have shown that there
are men in Tennessee in these degen-
crate times who would rather be right
than hold office; men who prize their
self respect above official title; men
who love duty for duty's sake and who
have the courage to follow where du-
ty leads.
The words spoken by Frank Hall
are those of brave son of Tennessee.
Every Democrat of the Old Guard,
every patriotic son of Tennessee; ev.
cry citizen who prizes truth and cour-
age, will echo fervent amen to his
which prompted the State machine to
scorn the presidents and wishes of
the Democratic party and like the
brave, true man that he is he speaks
his views plainly, in language that is
not susceptible Of a double meaning.
We hope there are others who will
give expression to these sentiments

II some Of his strongest defenders in
this country are not Of the Catholic
faith. For ROosevelt's attitude is the
ONLY one that a true AmeTisan occupy
ing the exalted position that be does,
could AFFORD TO take.
The former President sought TO
show that honor to the Pope of Rome
which his high station and his ex-
emplary character entitle him to. AS
the most distinguished American citi-
zen in the world IL was altogether
proper that Mr.. Roosevelt should pay
his respects TO the head Of the Oldest
and the greatest Of religious demon
nations, but he could not AFFORD to
so do at the cost OF his self respect
The papal court had no right to pres
cribe conditions for his visit. Its at
tempt to dictate to him where he
should 90 and what he should say dur
ing his visit to Rome was unworthy
the great Catholic church and little
less than an affront to a great Ameri-
can citizen.
Mr.. Roosevelt prizes too highly his
liberty of speech and his freedom Oh
action to accept an invitation hedged
about with conditions of this char
acter. And his declination will be
in every land where liberty
of conduct and freedom Of speech is
priced. His attitude has further en-
deared him to the good will and high
opinion of the American people.

II is undoubtedly the best road in the
county. Pisgah Hill has been one OF
the most formidable obstacles crossed
by a public highway in this part OF
the county for all time. But the pres

of a ravine, is an easy grade, smooth
road bed, we'll drained and has no
grade on It exceeding two feet In the

remembered that a plan of this char

Because every member of the Demo

TO HON. ERNEST RICE.

| You have served your people well
IN public place. You have been true
TO the traditions and principles Of the
Democratic party. You have been
honored by that party and the people
Of Tennessee. For four years you rep
resented your Senatorial district In
the General Assembly of Tennessee
district containing citizenship not
surpassed for moral virtues, civic
pride and devotion to the fundamen-
tails of the Democratic party. You
have served term as Speaker Of the
Tennessee Senate and you discharged
its important duties with a rare de-
gree of fidelity. courage and ability.
Your whole life, public and private,
has beeen an honor to your constitu-
ents and highly creditable to your
eeh.
Two years ago you were elected
member of the State Democratic Com"
mittee by the delegates from the Ninth
Congressional District; one district in
the State where Ban Murray did not
name a delegate. 1t was the banner
Temperance district of Tennessee, but
one county, and that by small ma
iority, giving the machine prefer
ence. You have discharged the du-
ties of that position with that fidelity
which has characterized your con-
duct in other Official stations.
You have been named one member
of the Committee of Five to select
delegates to the next State convention
and to perpetuate the present infa-
nous political machine in Tennessee.
You were named to give color OF
responsibility to an Internal plot to
destroy the constitutional freedom OF
the Supreme Court and to further en-
slave the people of Tennessee. On
that committee you will be powerless,
your hands will be tied you are bound
and gagged.
Now can you afford OF serve in a
position of this character Can you
afford to be party to the outrage that
is proposed? Would it not be better
for your name and fame to wash your
hands of the whole scheme and re-
turn to your constituency your COM
mission as member Of the State Com
mittee as clean as it was when you re-
ceived it?
These questions admit Of but one
answer. They answer themselves.
You of all men, one honored of all 9TH
ers in your district by the Old Guard
of Democracy, can least afford to
serve in a position which can bring |
nothing but discredit upon you. Spurn
the place. Treat the committee with
the same scorn and contempt that 1t
did the precedents, the will and the
customs of the Democratic party. The
Herald will be very much disappointed
II you do not act in accordance with
this advice.
