Taft Considers Socialism Menace

Herne ndo Times Promoter.
In recent speech President Taft
called the attention of his audience
and the country to the growth of so
socialism in the United States. Altho
the results of elections during the
last two or three years would lead to
the belief that socialism was not only
making no advance, but actually los
ing adherents, Mr.. Taft processes to
see in it menace to our present form
of government and to our two lead
ing political parties.
If it is really true, as would be in
ferred from Mr.. Taft's speech, THAI
socialism is gaining strength, he has
not far to look for the cause of it. A
new political party gathers recruits
in proportion to the dissatisfaction
caused by the party in power. The
failure of the republican party to
give promised relief from tariff ex-
tortion its failure to prevent unlaw-
combinations to restrain and monop-
Ollie trade, apparrnt inability to sue
cessfully cope with the malefactors
of great wealth, its granting of spe-
cial privilege to certain people and
certain sections of the country have
done more to faver the growth OF
socialism than all other causes.

1.-THE MESSAGE the ThInu,"

"The telegram" says Advertising
and Selling, rs a common, little
crude, yellow and black affair, but
with what avidity we reach for it!
That is because we have learned to
associate it with information of i'm
portance. All the costly deckle-edge
stock and exquisite printing and en-
bossirg in many colors that money
can buy could not add anything to the
face value of the telegram. The mes
sage is the thing. If your advertising
gets the reputation of having the real
meat in it, people will reach for 1t
and hang on to It."
1t is up to the business man to give
his daily message In the morning
newspaper Geographic Importance.
The successful advertisers are those
whose contributions to the news of
the day are just as much sought after
by readers as the stories of current
happenings that are flashed over the
wires.

FAVORS CHURCH ADVERTISING
Says Liberal Use of Printers
Ink Pays.

IT have drawn people to hear my
sermons by advertising. l have at
tracted them with moving pictures,
hot suppers, pink teas and flowers and
flags. If l have had any degree Of
success in Spokane it is because of
the liberal use of printers ink" said
Rev. DR.. James W. Kramer, pastor of
First Baptist church of Spokane,
Wash. There is something worse than
sensationalism. 1t is the inability OF
the church to produce life. The
church that does not advertise is be-
hind the times and is nursing empty
pews, and he who rails against the
minister for advertising is suffering
for a congregation. l am not an adj
vocate of ragtime methods or vulgar
preaching, but 1 do plead for the
church which is a humming plant of
machinery, with live Goals in the fire
box. smoke curling from the stack
and every belt, wheel and pulley 60
ing. l believe, too, that the people
need instruction and that minister
of the Gospel, is first, last and all the
time a teacher. There must be life.

The man who deadens his con-
science to the moral obligations of
debt. may groan and amen round
powerful but he has powerful uphill
business trying to convince people
knowing to his lax views on dischar-
ging such scores, that he has a real
case of religion. This does not APP
ply to the man who wants to meet
his responsibilities along such line
but honestly and really can't, but is
directed at the incorrigihle respecta-
BILE deadbeat pew warmer. There is
an idea prevalent that its necessary
that we be sinful in order to keep
BUNDLED. This writer can attest
that his debts furnish him quite e.
nough of the mental grind to keep
him in the humble class. The man
who keenly feels the pullings of debt
is usually not apt to become nabot
even in his own opinion.

vast subject about which much
N and many falsehoods have been
Witten. The falsehoods have done
more tina ma passing harm, for they
have caused in the minds of the igno-
rant a disbelief in the truth, and the
strict truth displays a terrible pic
ture, writes Alexander Lambert, M.
D., in Success Magazine The use of
alcohol is the most common and wide
spread of all the narcotics, and I'M
like morphine and cocaine it may be
INDUCED in modestly without ever be-
ing taken to excess; but, also, unlike
morphine and cocaine, when used
even in moderation, it may cause
pathologic changes in the body, and
when taken in excess invariably pro-
duces degenerative changes in the va
rlous ViScera.
Alcohol has a curious selective &C
ton, and as individuals reach differ
emily to equal doses, so, too, do indi-
Viduals show different patholicic
changes from equal indulgence. The
brain and central nervous system, or
the heart and arteries, or the liver and
kidneys, may each separately bear the
brunt of the alcoholic poison. Thus
the brain and nervous system may en-
tlrely escape the poison, and the in
dividual die of cardic or other visceral
fegenerations; or the brain and nerv-
pus system may become early degene-
rated and the viscera escape, and the
chronic alcoholic live long years, a
nuisance and curse to his commu-
unity. Unfortunately, when alcoholic
fxcesses are committed in the youth
Full, formative period of life, the brain
lRnd nervous system are the more
prone to be affected. The man who
fndulges in alcoholic excuses is like
man who recklessly signs drafts
alch he never expects to be cashed
- but when OvcTtsTaa=5a with acute dis
ease or accident these drafts are
cashed in with pitiless insistence. The
effects of alcohol do not always re-
main confined to the generation which
commits the over-indulgence, since
idiocy, epilepsy, moral degeneracy
and weakness, unstable mentality are
more often found in the children of
alcoholic parents than in those Of
non-alcoholic parentage. The actual
thirst or craving is not inherited, but
the weaker moral character which is
bequeathed easily gives way to any
temptation and quickly forms habits
OF excessive indulgence.

The Spread Of Consumption.

Bulletin to Herald from Miss. Board HEALTH
The great medium in the spread of
this disease is the consumptiyes
spit. When the lungs are attacked
by the germs of tuberculosis the
softened parts are coughed up, and
upon examining the sputum millions
of death dealing germs may be found
If this spittal II discharged upon the
pavement, floor or indeed any place,
and allowed to dry the germs will
float about in the air with the dust.
Persons breathing this germ-laden
air into the lungs may become vic
Tins of the disease. For this reason
the consumptive who eXpectorates
anywhere is an enemy to others and
himself. The consumptive should
take care not to swallow the sputum,
for in this way he may become rein
fected. The sputum is poisonous
and must be destroyed. No one
should spit without having the sput
um destroyed in some way. The
supposedly well mist observe this
precaution in order to emphasize its
Importance and to set an example
for the sick. JOIN in the anti-spit-
ting crusade. Do all you can to
convince others of the Importance of
caring for the sputum of all persons
in the right way at all times. 1t is
nasty and indecent to spit on side
walks, floors, and III fact anywhere
except places where it will be de-
stroyed as the spittoon. cutters, fires
etc. Splitting promiscuously is a
filthy and dangerous nuisance and
should be abated
There is no danger in the breath
of the consumptive, but when he
coughs or sneezes, the air immedi-
ately before the face is filed with
minute particles of sputum, many of
them too small to be seen, which are
filed with gems. A person should
avoid breathing such air, and the
consumptive should be thoughtful
and careful enough of the rights Of
others to use the proper precaution
while talking, coughing, or sneezing.
n careless consumptive will smear
the lips and hands with sputum and
the germs may be deposited on any
thing with which he comes in con-
tact Then too. his mustache and
beard frequently becomes soiled with
the spittle. The public drinking cup
is for this reason a nuisance and is
unquestionably an agent in the
spread of disease.
Houses in which consumptives live
or have lived. may become infected
and remain so for months. The care

clinging to the carpet, furniture,
floor, or in any part of the room and
home Persons who tEoughtlessly
move into the house may succumb to
the disease unless it is properly
cleaned and disinfected before hand.
Consumption is a house diseaS.
The smallest percentage of casns &C.
cur among lumbermen and rartsmen,
people who live out doors and
breathe pure air. Impure air, def
Gent sunlight, dirt, dampness and
darkness are effective allies of the
tubercular germ. But pure air and
plenty of it, sunshine and a healthy,
vigorous body are its greatest enc
mics. Remember that the most act
i've agent in the spread of the dis
ease is the consumptive's spit.

Democracy is coming into her OWL
again. Fourteen Northern states
returned Democratic Governors in
the election Tuesday, and sufficient
new Democratic Congressman were
elected to give the Democrats a ma
jority of some 70 which is some Iarg-
er majority than now enjoyed by the
Republicans. New York, New Jer-
sey,- Ohio, Massachusetts, Indiana
were among the notable state victo-
ries for the party of Thomas Jeffer-
son and his compeers. Tennessee
turned Bob Taylor down for Govern
or, though he retains his seat in the
U. S. Senate. The fusion candidate
Hooper captured the gubernatorial
plum in the Old Volunteer state, but
this was due largely to the indepen-
dent democratic vote, cast in repu-
diation of Pattersonism. Tennessee
will vote Democratic in the next Ma
tional Election.

Saturday was Vardaman day at

thing like accuracy just how many
people were there, but at all events
there were enough of them to con-

Making all due allowances for its
partisanship, as it is the National
Democratic organ, the National
Monthly published the nearest cor
rect prediction summary of any
that we had chance to read. It's
views of the situation was truly pro-
phetic of a Democratic capture of
the house with several state govern
ors, all of which has come true.
That's a good joke on its editor, Nor
man Mack. who by mistake filled out
his vote for the Republican ticket
and had to let it go that way accord
log to the law prevalent in New
York, his state. The American Re
view of Reviews came the next near
est publishing a straight prediction.

zines one can come nearer keeping
up with the national political situa-
ton than with any we know of.
