One Record Made by Women.

Through the activity of women. in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign. sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
of tuberculosis have been erected;
travelling libraries have been circu-
lated. posters. circulars and other
kinds Of literature have been distrib-
uted to the number of millions Of
pieces, thousands of lectures have
been given, large sums OF money have
been secured. hundreds of needy cases
have been helped; tuberculosis work
has been started In many communi-
ties where no movement had existed;
and millions of women have learned
the dangers and methods of proven
ton of tuberculosis. The work Of the
women extends from the drawing room
of the rich to the homes of the poor.
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During

POLITICAL.

Indications continue to multiply that
President Taft's participation in the
New York state fight is ended for good
The President is not resident of New
York and does not feel it to be the
province of the President to interfere
in local politics.
James r. Garfield. secretary of the
interior under Roosevelt. has left his
Mentor, Ohio, home, for a speaking
tour of the West. during which he will
ally himself with Roosevelt and Pin
chot in the discussion of Progressive
Republicanism and conservation of the
national resources.
The political attention of the coun.
try gradually is being focused on New
England, where. early in September,
the first measuring of strength be-
tween the Republican and Democratic
parties in the state elections of 1910 is
to take place. Vermont on Sept.
and Maine on Sept. IL will select state
officers and congressman.
AS being chiefly Valuable for agri-
cultural purposes. President Taft,

ton, has practically eliminated from
the national forests 3,O59,237 acres Of
land and has restored as being more
favorable for forestry than for agricul-
tural purposes 1,324,213 acres. This
represents loss to the forests of l.
735,024 acres.
President Taft in a communication
to the Republican congressional com
mittee says that differences between
Republicans should be forgotten in the
congressional election, and that Re
publicans who believe in the party
principles as declared in its national
platform of 1908 should give the can
ddates loyal and effective support. If
this is done there will be no doubt of
a return of Republican majority"

were willing to return were taken back,
but the others were paid off and given
to understand they were wanted no
more. New men were secured to fill
the vacancies.
There were over a half hundred who
appeared at the mill site looking for
the jobs which were left by the strik-
ers. All could not be accommodated,
and those of the strikers and the 9TH
ers looking for work formed quite a
party about the job and near the Cen

were kept away from the mill. and
