DOES TILE WORLD GROW WISER ?
TTama Herald.

| anna
The world does not grow wiser as 1t
grows older There are certain errors
of calculation. based ON mistaken es-
innate of human nature which repeat
themselves with each generation, tho
they have been found out, exposed, Ia
beled and widely announced five thous-
and times. Such, for example. Is the
case Of the anguine young woman who
marries rake for the purpose Of re-
forming him. Such is the case Of the
father who takes his idolent and shift
less son into business, expecting that
responsibility will steady him. Such
is the case Of a church which elects
person to office in order to secure his
active interest in the work of the
church. Such is the case Of the old
people who make over their property
proofs of their gratitude thru the de-
Ginning years of their life. These
things all work one way, perhaps an
exception so rare to be quite undeserv-
ing of attention, and their method and
result are pretty generally known; yet,
such is the conceit of men that almost
all who try the experiment believe that
they by reason of superior sagacity will
be able to do what thousands of others
sorrowfuHy failed to accomplish. The
law of the heavenly kingdom is. Make
the tree good and the fruit good" be-
ginning the reform with the tree and
not with the fruit; and that law cannot
safely be transgressed.

Seeking Ammunition.
Baltimore Sun. [dem.l)

Baltimore sun, ldem.J)
Mayor Gaynor, of New York. in his
strong and suggestive interview pub
lished in the Sun recently, said that
the democratic party must have a def
mite program. On the tariff issue, for
instance, the national democracy
should pledge itself to do specific
things. Vague and glittering generali
ties will not satisfy the people, who
want a promise to do something def
mite and concrete Let the party"
said Mayor Gaynor, select a certain
number of articles which are necessary
and promise to reduce the tariff tax
on those articles"
Mr.. Gaynor's suggestion is eninently
wise and practical. The tariff plank
in the democratic platform of 1912
should be drawn in accordance with
his recommendation, and among the
necessaries of life on which the reduc-
tion of the duty or the abolition Of the
duty should be promised sugar ought
% be included. Sugar is an important
item in the cost of living. Its price is
controlled by trust which not only
plumbers the people thru its tariff
privilege, but has defrauded the gov
eminent which gives it the tariff privi-
lege. Mr.. Frank c. Lowry. of New
York, secretary of an organization OF
wholesale grocers formed to obtain
cheaper sugar. in a pamphlet on the
sugar tariff. maintains that the In
crease in price to the consumer by rea
son OF the duty is about cents
pound. The average consumption Of
sugar per head Of the population Is
81 pounds annually. Estimating five
persons to the family and total con-
sumption OF 4o5 pounds yearly, the tar
tff tax at cents a pound means an
increased annual expenditure Of So
family,
The abolition Of the duty on sugar
would be a definite end concrete Illus
tratien Of the benefits Of honest tariff
revision. Every consumer In the
land would profit by it. Every family
would welcome it, The trust is not
entitled to the privilege which 1t now
enjoys of taxing the people cents
pound on sugar and enriehing itself at
the expense of the consumer. The
democratic party eught to stand for
! eheaeeF sugar and for a reduction in
| the price ct ali the neeessaries Of life.

COMET WAS DISAPPOINTING.
T0Ska1ooSo Clpha

The failure of Halley's comet to real
ize In its brillhncy the predictions of
the astronomers has led older people
to rem ember the still more striking ap-
pearances they have witnessed. The
most beautiful of all these was Donati's
comet in 1855. This was first discov-
cred June 2, at the distance Of 240.-
100000 miles, but by the middle Of
August its tail was distincly developed,
and for weeks II occupied northern
position in the heavens, so that 1t
could be seen both in the morning and
IN the evening. It reached its nearest
approach to the earth Oct 10. when
It's tai was estimated at $1,000. 900
miles. Its passage in front OF the con-
stella lion Arcturus, on Oct. 5. 1858.
was brilliant spectacle. It was cal
cuulated that the orbit Of the comet
was so eIlipttcaI that 1t only appears
once IN 2.O4o years Other brilliant
comets were those Of 1S43, 1851, 1868
and Coggia's comet in 1874.

a wife. The man was a widower and
had a number of grown-up children.
When they learned Of their fathers
plans they tried to reason with him and
suggested that if he wanted a wife
there We're a number Of available wo-
men in the neighborhood who would
not only grace his home but assist in

man was obdurate. spurned the advice

she had soft snap, because sensible
people do not get wives In that mat

In order to get her he had to deed her
a lot Of good Iowa land. and after she
had lived with him for q few weeks she
gave him the merry ha ha and return

an Iowa farm. While such things are
not common they occur 50 frequently
as to furnish food for thought" for
these who may be harboring a desire
to follow in the Footsteps Of his fool

ference that he needs spur. The
fellow who does not intend to do his
duty, never intended to, and who was
elected for the supreme purpose of law
qualification has no kick coming. The
law is for him and In protection of de.
cency. And this sort OF county at
torney is not at ali uncommon, but has
been easy to find. If the county at
torneys have q grievance over the re-
moval feature of the Cosson laws they
should turn to the unwritten records
Of county attorneyships IN Iowa ana
in every other state. If any puphc
peace and protective officers have
earned the application of the "prin-
ciple" complained of. the county at
torneys have done SO. 1t is therefore
an excellent hearing when the associa-
.Son of county attorneys indorses the
spirit and intent" OF the Cosson
laws.
The suggested amendment TO the
law which should provide that twenty
five qualified electors shall sign
complaint against a county attorney
before removal proceedings shall be
started should be turned down. 1t
should not be more necessary TO scour
the county for q number of signatures
ID bring charges against county at
torney than TO start proceedings against
any other man who may be violating
the law. The fact Is, that If IN this
proposed am enGmert the desire is 10
get away from political prosecutions that
political persecution can always ge:
the twenty-five signatures and get
them about as easily as It can get
three, while from a moral and law
standpoint they would 90
hard 10 get. Possibly the limit might
be raised 10 ten electors without clog
g;ng the free operation of the law. but
Ave or ten qualified electors certainly
should be sufficient TO gain ATTENTION
10 charges made OF derehction in office
If twenty-five are TO gain such atten-
tiOn. OlnerWlSe, why not increase tllS
number required to 100 or even more?
the county attorneys may
have intended the twenty-five elector
provision Is calculated TO clog the oper-
alton OF the law. A half dozen or less
are sufficient 10 bring about a grand
jury inquiry. why more for an open
inquiry? Indeed, an open inquiry where
witnesses may be crosse examined in
public is the best protection for the
county attorney who might be perse-
cuted by prosecution. He can clear his
skirts before all men.
The Cosson laws are working ex-
tremely well They have the indorse-
ment Of Iowa in the lares- primary.
It will be well enough TO give the de-
PENDANT reasonable time 10 prepare, i:
time IS not now overland
that is an open question. But don't
monkey much with the Cosson laws.

Island. n. Y, for two years, TO have

Chinese gardeners have been used to

The houseny Is q fruitful source OF
spread OF the disease and all foods and
dishes should be effectively guarded
against the visits of this insect.
Food, fingers and files are the great
cause of the spread of Infection.
Hence the means of prevention of the
dread scourge OF typhoid Is to boil the
water VIC drink, and pastcurize tho milk
unless perfectly sure that the water
and the milk are pure and clean; to be
scrupulously careful in the disinfection
of tho discharges from the body of the
patient and OF the linen from his body
1t has been discovered that immunity
from the disease may be secured by
vaccination. using the dead germs Of
typhoid to inject into the body of tho
person to be made immune.
The treatment that milk should go
through after coming from the cow is
to place 1t In cool places, using Ice In
the warm weather and keep 1t there
for hours. Then when It Is delivered
to the home in bottles (and milk should
never be handled in tin cans) 1T may be
pasteurlZed. AS a simple way OF pas
teurizng place the bottle containing
the milk In vessel or hot water and
keep IL there one hour while the tenn
perature OF the water Is at the boiling
point or near 1t. This secures for tho
milk Itself temperature of about III
degrees Fahrenheit. at which point the
germs that are dangerous to man are
killed.
II the dalryman keeps the milk warm
instead OF cooling it he fails to allow
the milk to develop the antiseptic
powers that II does develop when
cooled, whereby IL kills the germs that
are dangerous The dairy should not
use metallic Strainers but should use
gauze instead.

In the town of Plymouth, Pa, where
in 1885 an epidemic occurred In which
1000 cases developed in one season: the
cause was asslduously sought and
proved to have been a single case of
typhoid in person residing along the
source of water supply of that town
The whole population was only 5000
Tho eHcreta from the person who first
had the disease was carelcssly thrown
on the SHOWS. as It was winter time.
and when the summer suns melted tho
snow the whole town was given the
germs through the water supply.
Also In the town OF Butler, Pa. In
the early ninotles, out of a population
Of $4,000, 1854 cases of typhoid dcyel-
oped in one season. 1t was traced to
the water supply having been infected
through carelessneSS on the part OF the
city authorities One hundcd and flf-
teen deaths resulted in four months.
The greatest trouble is in the water,
and the second great trouble Is in milk
supply. The milk as it comes from the
COW is always free from the typhoid
germs. but when contaminated by the
handling it becomes one OF the best OF
mediums. az one single germ may de-
