ENLISTED MEMS FRIEND.
The Army And The Navy ChapIains Are
In Sympathy With Soldiers And
Sailors.

At yesterdays session Of the SYNOD,
the highest tribunal of the Presby-
terrain Church, now in session at Will
mington, Del, discussions of the
status of the Army and Navy chap
lains occupied considerable portion Of
the session.
The matter came up after Rev. DR..
George Robinson, of Washington, ma
val chaplain, had opened the proceed
ings with a prayer. He was asked
by some of the delegates whether the
chaplain, being an officer, did not
necessarily hold himself aloof from
the enlisted men and thereby deprive
them of spiritual and general advice.
DR.. Robinson replied that while the
chaplain as an officer was not on a
parity with the men, he was looked
upon by the latter as being one of
them. This has often been demon
strated," he said, 'by the appoint
ment of chaplains as counsel for
men on trial on shipboard because
of their sympathy with them"
During the debate it developed that
the chaplain is as much the friend
to seaman or soldier as a preacher
is to his parishioners. The synod
formally approved the Young Mems
Christian Association work in the
Army and Navy.

TYPHOID ON INCREASE.
Five New Cases AT Jessup's Cut
Making Total OF 20.

Five moIe cases of typhoid were re-
ported yesterday at the House of Cor
rection, thus bringing the total num-
Der up to twenty. Several more in
mates were placed on the "suspect
list and they will be watched for de-
velopments. Despite the new cases,
DR.. 7. w. Byerly, of Laurel, who is
the physician in attendance at the
institution, said the disease had been
practically checked and that while a
few more cases might be found he
saw no reason to be alarmed. DR..
Byerly said that he believed the
fever was spread by flies carrying
the germ from one afflicted man to
other inmates. This could have
been prevented, he said, had the
windows and doors of the hospital
been properly screened.
The physician exonerated the su-
perintendent and others connected
with the institution, saying that no
money had beer provided for such con-
ditions. DR.. Byerly said that every
ting was being done for the comfort
of hose afflicted and that there were
nurses in constant attendance.
ain reply to the allegations made
that the officials at the institution did
not notify the State Board of Health
of the situation, desiring to have Sc
crecy in the matter, the physician
stated that the officials had been told
by the directors not to report to the
Board of Health unless the situation
became serious or conditions should
warrant their doing So He said that
he would send letter to the Board
of Health asking an examination.
A letter was sent by an anonymous
writer to Governor Crothers calling
his attention to the situation. DR..
Byerly said that there was no need
for such action, as there was nothing
to hide, and that it had already been
practically decided at the time to
notify the Health Board.

POPULAR MAN
FOR THE OFFICE.

Paul Geary, for five years the
able district attorney OF Navajo
county, is the candidate for Cor
poration Commissioner on the
Democratic ticket.
During the wears he has been
the district attorney Of Navajo
county, Geary has made himself
a terror to the criminal element
of Arizona. He has fulfilled every
promise made when he went be-
fore the people tor their suffrage,
and, it he wished, could hold the
Office of District Attorney in1eh-
nitely.
Navajo county desired repre-
sentatlon on the Democra tic
state ticket. Irrespective OF
party, residents Of the north
approached Geary and asked
him to stand for { orporation
Commissioner, an office more d!-
rectlv connected with the welfare
of the whole people than any
other to be filled on December
y Geary consented. and IS now
making an active canvass for
the nomination at the primary
on October "a.
Geary is 4 man in the very
prime of his lite. His character
is of the highest. His neighbors
will vote for him, without re-
gard to party affiliations. He is
the kind of man that should fill
every Office, high and low, dur
ing the first state administra
ton. He believes that govern
nent is a matter OF business,
that the people are the govern
nent, and therefore that the
office should be conducted in be
half of the people. That is his
platform.
Geary is now canvassing in the
southern part of the territory.
All reports indicate that he will
receive a big plurality, at least,
at the primary. He is free OF
d imagery, free of fanaticisn1,
honest as the day is long, and
worthy of every vote cast fol
him. m.-Arizona Democrat.
