TO CURE CANCER BY INOCULA-
TION.
New York Physician Has Cured Rats
And Believes He Can Save Lives
OF Human Beings.

Albany, n. Y, Feb. ia strong
hope Of curing cancer, or at least
greatly amelicrating the condition Of
cancer patients by means Of inocula-
ton; is held out in the report of
Harry r. Gaylord, director of the
cancer laboratory of the State de-
partment of health at Buffalo. This
hope is based on extended expert
mentation during the past year in
the inoculation or vaccination of va
rious animals. mainly rats, with the
cancer virus.
1T appears" says the report. that
where the resistance OF the animal is
not sufficiently awakened by one in
oculation of the tumor this resist
ence can be heightened by repeated
doses and, in a considerable propor-
ton of cases, immunity can be rails
ed to a point which will bring about
cure.
ut is needless 10 point out that
this process OF repeated vaccinatl
which has cured in the proportion
Of rs to 40 in the case of rats, might
we'll be applied to those cases Of
late cancer in human being 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 ex-
perimentation with human beings
Funds sufficient to enable us to main
tain 10 patients, is the least amount
which can be of value if this work
Is to be undertaken"
Statistics are given to how that
cancer continues to increase. The
reports say that in the United States
it has increased from nine per 10, 900
population in 1850 to 43 in 1900, an
average of about 65 in 1901 and an
average Of more than 20 in 1906.

way soon to new ones, for their
terms expire very soon.
Bond Issues are growing very pop
I'ar' hoWeNer, as may be seen from
the number of bills leading in that
urection' fonds for rural schools
have been so common as to alarm the
comptroller Efn''"l, all towns and
cities are coming in under the same
amendment that gave to Florence.
Georgetown and Rock Hill the right
to increase their bonded indebted
ness, two or three towns and cities
ask for that right every year. Now
comes proposition from the Pied
mont to change the constitution so
far as to allow townships in Green
wood county to vote bonds to aid a
new railroad proposed up there.
Bonding communities is so very easy
way to get money and nobody has
peen burned in so long a time that
n1w nobody is afraid of them. When
he constitution was framed the sores
on several counties and townships
were raw, but they have been healed
over by kindly Father Time.

COTTON SSOCIATION FORMED.
Organization Designed to Bring
Grower and Manufacturer To-
gether is Inauguratcd in Georgia.

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 1O.-The Ma
tonal Cotton and Cotton Products
association, designed to bring togeth-
er in one organization the varied
cotton interests, was organized here
today. A committee was named to
consider the advisability Of holding
annually in some Southern city a
cotton exposition. Farmers, manu-
facturers. railway representative and
prominent educators were present at
today's meeting.
A. M. Soule, president of the Geor-
gia Agricultural college, was elected
president; Charles S. Barrett. presi-
dent of the National Farmers Union.
vice president; G. S. Weaver. of At
lanta. secretary, and Mayor Maddox
or Atlanta, treasurer. State vice
presidents also were elected.

STATE TAX LEVY.
hucker has Bill to Reduce It-If
Bill Passes The Levy VIII BE One
Mill Lower Than Last Year.

Columbia, Feb. 12.-Chairman of
the ways and means committee
has bill on the calendar providing
for the return of the money received
from the old State dispensary into
the general State treasury. He says
that if the bill passes the levy in
stead of being made ga mills as
was done by the house, the figures
can be changed to ga mills, a mill
less than last year.
Mr. Rucker, who is a lawyer, and
other legal talent have carefully con-
sidered the matter and have agreed
that there is nothing to prevent it,
the constitution providing that the
met annual profits" be devoted to
the school fund. This sum is in no
sense met annual profit" and may be
therefore put in the State treasury
and appropriated as needed. 1t would
save big slice of taxes if adopted.
The bill has passed the mouse with
out a dissenting vote and is now i'm
the senate.

DIR. Cook at Chilian Port.

Valdivia, Chile, Feb. 13.-Dr. Fred

wife arrived here on board the Ger
man steamer Osiris, having taken a
cabin at Montevideo. DR.. Cook trav-
eled under the name of T. Craig. He
and his wife sailed North today. He
declined to be interviewed
The steamer Osiris sailed from
Hamburg January 1 and from Ant
werp January for Callao. Presum-
ably she touched at Montevideo,
where the Cooks are said to have
boarded her, but her call there has
not been reported.

ditions to the legislative circle this

ditions to the legislative circle this
winter.
There seems to be little likelihood
of any of the liquor propositions on
the calendar going through or even
receiving serious consideration. The
house bill that caused so many heart
aches, slumbers peacefully near the
foot of the senate calendar with an
unfavorable report on it, The great
question will be thrown out to the
people on the State again this sum-
mer in the elections that are to be
held for the different offices and will
result again in sending many "one
idea" men to the legislature to play
ducks and brakes with serious legis-
lation just because they stand in a
certain attitude towards the sale Of
liquor that pleases the majority of
the voters of their respective dis
tricts.
The vote will be taken on the in.
come tax amendment this week, and
that will be the most important mat
ter on the program for it will mark
either the entry into a new era In
government for the United States, or
the refusal to do so, for, as shown in
this correspondence, the rest Of the
country waits on South Carolina.
A special effort will be made to
have the food inspection law passed
this year, If the matter is ever
brought before the house, there will
be strong enough arguments pre-
sented to prompt general support,
but 1t is hard to get it up. Mr.. Dan
iel tried to get it up last week, but
debate adjourned" bills had the
right Of way over him, and though
his bill is special order" it had to
be passed over. The number Of spe-
cial orders on the calendar would
make pretty good calendar in
themselves, the mileage bill is one of
them, and it does not seem to be
likely that it will be pressed. The
sentiment Of the house has changed
and the lobby is absent and a spirit
of fairness to railroads and corpora
tions seems to be kindling in place
of the former one to bear just as hard
on them as possible.
Col. CosgrOve's highway bond issue
bill is one of the special orders and
many another good proposition that
will never be even reached this
year. What does not get through the
house very early this week, unless it
be senate bill, will be continued at
one fell swoop.

FIRE IN MAYESVILLE.
House Occupied by j. l.. Watford
Burned

Mayesville, Feb. 11.-Fire destroy
ed the home of j. L. Watford this
morning about 1870. The family was
awakened by neighbor after the
back of the house was in flames. The
house was completely destroyed and
the house Of ]. f. Anderson, next
door, came near being burned. The
wind was blowing across the street
in the direction of the new school
building and this probably saved ad-
Joining property. The school build
ing was not damaged Mr.. Watford
lost his kitchen furniture, but saved
nearly all of his other household ef-
fects.
The residence was one of the old
est in town and was owned by T. L.
Kahn. The loss is partially covered
by insurance.
Mr.. Kahn soon will build a hand
some modern residence on the site
of the burned building.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The flames were discovered in the
rear Of the house.
Another serious fire was threaten
ed last night when the boys dormi-
tory Of the Mayesville Educational
and Industrial Institute (negro)
caught on fire, but the flames were
extinguished by the students.

lies one of the many victims who were

The feat. which was novel form OF
