II attempted. The Beverage senti-
ment seems to be so strong that moth
ing could affect it, provided the repub-
icans carry the legislature.
But the democrats are having their
troubles. The only strong support
which the democrats can count on just
now is from the brewers and the
brewers do not care whether John
Kern goes to the United States senate
or not What they are after is the
legislature. They will use every posi-
BILE effort to elect members OF the
legislature. both democrats and re-
publicans, who will be in favor OF the
repeal of the county option law above
everything else. They will not leave
anything undone to carry this point
They are ready to make all kinds OF
trades OF deals to bring this about.
1t is reported here that in one Of the
largest counties in the Sixth district
the democrats have nominated a wet
candidate and the republicans dry
candidate for the legislature. 1t is
said that an agreement has been
reached by which the dry republican,
IL elected will vote for a bin to substi.
tute some other kind of liquor law
for the local option law in return for
the support of the brewers at the cleo
ton. and that the wet democrat has
agreed in return that IL elected he will
vote for Beyeridge for reelection il his
vote is required to elect him. This
would be in return for certain republi
Lean support. This story does not
sound very good, but it shows the
kind of talk that is going around and
the kind of deals that are put over al
| times like these.
Fleming Wouldn't Cry.

lief that Steve Fleming, of For,

ers association. would not cry his eyes
out if Kern were defeated for senator
He has not liked Kern for years. ever
since Kern kept him from being elect
ed chairman of the democratic state
committee several years ago. 1t is
true that Fleming cast the vote Of
Allen county for Kern at the recent
| state convention. but he did it merely
as a band wagon rush to get on the
winning side. Another thing that may
find place in F1eming's mind is thai

not be bit better pleased with Tag

Progressive Oklahoma.

Dc in progressive Oklahoma the

a Stste-owned system Of railroads 70

demand is the outcome of the refusal
Iof the railroads to obey the State law

From the present outlook it seems prob
able that Oklahoma may very soon du-,
plicate the jolt given to capitalism
by Milwaukee. Oklahoma has the adj
vantage of starting with a State con-
stitutiop which permits much more in
this direction than the constitutions Of
other States, and it may be remem-
bered that those vigflant watchdogs Of

and howled loud and long against the
adoption of Oklahoma's constitution at

The publishing in the last issue Of

a newspaper article out Of the 5ordis

money was the prime requisite to POI
ltical power, but evidence is SO diff
ficult to secure, because of the fear of
self conviction, that such complete
and indisputable slab of facts was a
pleasing innovation.
Some whose names were on the pub
slished list have claimed to the Major
ity that they received no money. In
that case, if it is not mistaken identity.
another interesting question is brought
up-where did the money go?

and this, too would be a development

Reluctant witnesses, telling how. why

White Plague

Professor Wilcox Says Campaign

Albany, June 23.-Professor Walter
Wilcox, of Cornell, in a letter to DR..

of Health made public today, effec-
tually puts an end to the controversy
over the effect of the tuberculosis cru
sade in this state aroused by a some
what general misconception of an ar
ticle by Professor Wilcox in the March
issue of the Departments bulletin. BY
many Professor Willcox's article was
taken to mean that the tuberculosis
crusade in this state has had little II
any effect on the death-rate, but his
letter to Commissioner Porter, which
follows conveys a very different idea

in the March number of the
Monthly Bulletin showing that
No influence of the special cam
paign against tuberculosis can be
traced in the figures Of 1900 to
1908 inclusive, the. totals for 1909
have been compiled with more
cheering results. In New York
