All iowa statesman wants
each county treasurer authorized
to pay over a dollar for each ba-
by born in his county. This is
protection of infant industry.
against which the most radical
will scarcely raise an objection
particularly in the Hawkeye state
where the crop of insurgents is
being assiduously cultivated.
William j. Bryan has always
had the courage of his convic-
tons. His fight for the adoption
of a local option plank by the
Nebraska Democrats may not
meet with the hearty support of
all his friends and admirers. but
however divergent their views
may be on that issue, they can
still applaud the man for his COW
ragecus fight for his convictions.
Defeat las no terrors for Mr..
Bryan. Hc is one Of the all too
few men in public life. who
would rather be right. as he sees
the right, than be victorious.
The Hartman estate, estimat.
ed at over $40 100000 at tire
time of his death, is now placed
by the executor at S71,OOO.OOO.
There has tecn little change
since Mr. Harriman's death in
the average value Of the stocks
and bonds Of which the estate is
mainly composed. The fifty per
cent shrinkage is due mainly to
the fact that the state of New
York is about to levy a tax there
on. For tax lodging purposes
$ll, 100000 is a very conserta-
tive estimate. AS collateral for
borrowing purposes in the ma.
niDulations of its late owner this
seventy one millions could easily
be swelled to thrice that amount
by the alchemy Of high finance.

tHerald Special j

Toxic, Japan, July 26.-Tremendous
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
worked havoc on Uso Bay, off the
southern coast of Hakodate and on
part of the Island of Hakodate. Ad-
vices received today say one hundred
and eighty-four tremors were re-
corded since July %. A panic follow
ed the latest quakes and eight hun
dred refugees have fled from the scene.
Shortly after the shocks began
rumblings were heard and one hun
dred assures in the side of the. noun
tain Uso followed, and boiling water
and lava were forced high in the air
The mountain began crumbling and
today it is almost leveled For four
days panic reigned. 1t is feared the
country side will be laid waste. A
great upheaval is Swallowing Uso
Bay. 1t is impossible for the officials
to estimate the loss of life, though it
is feared it has been heavy. Several
warships loaded with supplies and
soldiers will be rushed to the aid of
the suffering. Apprehension increased
when the government announced that
it had not heard from Hakodate, a
city of fifty thousand population on
Hakodate Island, 1t is feared the
city has suffered.

VALUE OF QUARANTINE.

One of the most effective means of
preventing the spread of the danger
Gus communicable diseases is proper
and efficient quarantine.
When scarlet fever or diphtheria
make their appearance in a commun
ity, the first important thing to do is
to not allow sick children to mingle
with those that are we'll This is best
accomplished by well enforced quar-
antine.
1t is a fact we'll known to health
officials that thousands of lives are
lost every year in this country for
the sole reason that quarantine regu-
lations are not enforced. Quarantine
then means much to the people. 1t
means a big saving in money and
better than all, a saving in sickness,
suffering and loss of lives.
Another side of this matter of quar-
antine is that when we needlessly ex-
pose we'll children to the dangerous
contagious diseases, we may be, in a
sense, guilty of murder. If we have
a case of scarlet fever OF diphtheria
in the home and knowingly permit
our neighbors' children to be exposed
to it and one of them should die as
a result of such negligence, We would
practically be guilty of murder.
Because this is true and for the rea-
son that effective quarantine means
so much to all of US, it is our duty to
do all we can to aid the health Off
Gals I'M IS proper enforcement. This
means that we must be careful to
obey the law ourselves and see to it
that our neighbors do likewise. If
we do this, the time will soon come
when there will be no more epidemic
of those diseases which are so dang
erous to child life

Author Of Song Dedicated TO Jack
johnson Has New Experiences.
Encouraged by the success OF the two
former songs, strangers" and the
Friends" the Ennis publishing house,
Brooklyn. C. Ennis, proprietor, has
put upon the market another catchy
song. dedicated to Champion Jack
johnson and entitled Mamma, Have
Brought Home the Bacon"
The new production is, a novel one
and from present indications II will
prove to be a big seller. Knowing that
bookstores generally carry In stock
the latest songs relating to most all
vacations in life. and especially along
amusement lines, Mr.. Ennis offered his
new song for sale in quite a number Of
the large dry goods establishments In
Brooklyn and New York.
In the majority Of the places where
Mr.. Ennis offered his new song Objec-
ton was made to its title. Upon in
quiry the publisher found that the fault
was not so much with the title. but the
real cause was that the author and
publisher was a cOlOred man. and the
managers Of the music department in
many OF the stores We're not accus-
toned to handling songs by culored au-
thors and publishers direct
1t was also found that in nearly all
Of the music stores there were for sale
numerous songs written by white au-
thors with various titles Of reflective
humorous character relating to colored
people. The general title to these pro-
auctions conveys a sense OF inferiority
or idea Of ridicule. while Mr.. Ennis
works breathe a sense Of pride and ad-

NE LIKED PENSIONS.
Drew Five Of Them From Uncle Sam

Drew Five Of Them From Uncle Sam
and Landed IN Jail.
For many years there lived In Phil
adelphia a negro veteran Of the war
between the states named Dee Wilton
Laws, the janitor Of the G. A R. head
quarters. His duties In this connec-
don occupied a part OF his time. The
rest Of II was pretty well occupied in
drawing four pensions. One Of them
was his own. but the others were those
Of other men-two dead, one living.
Being rather keen on pensions, Laws
furthermore had his wife draw an
annuity which was not rightfully hers,
making FIVE pensions in the family.
Laws and his wife lived in the south
end OF Philadelphia. where for several
years there resided with them an old
negro pensioner named Robinson and
his wife, Susan. Robinson died. His
widow, Susan, began to draw the pen
sion Then she died. The pension bu
reau never heard Of Susan Robinson's
death. for Mrs. Dee Wilton Laws could
sign a voucher Just as well as Susan
Robinson herself. So for four years
the government every three months
handed Annie Laws a snug little sum
on account Of the fact that an old ne
gro named Robinson had once served
In the army.
Dee Wilton long lived happily in re-
ceipt Of his own annuity and Of the
pensions which the government
thought II was paying to William Lew
is and James o. Banks. both Of whom
were dead, and Of George Harrison,
a feeble minded veteran in the aims
house. Laws received his various
checks at different addresses. the
homes Of friends OF his. He cashed
the checks at the Saloon Of Johnny
Ulman. Ninth and Locust streets, and
at tie shop Of a clothing dealer in
South street
Eventually the pension commission
er was Informed. 1t was an easy mat
ter, once attention was directed at the
rascal. to convict him. His sentence
was three years in the federal prison
at Atlanta, where be languishes today.
Annie Laws got away. No one sus-
pected her The investigation Of her
husband was not extended to include
