Must Be Allowed Appeal.
J. A. Harris, alias Arthur Johnson
the man now serving life sentence
and twenty years additional for the
alleged burglarizing of numerous
Cedar Rapids homes, and who shot
down former Mayor Carmody of that
city. is to have chance to present
his case fully before the supreme
court.
This was made certain when the
supreme court, in an opinion handed
down reversed the finding of the low.
er court and directed that a trans
cript of the evidence be sent up to
the high court at the expense of Linn
county.
Harris made request for the tran.
script at the expense of the county
when he appealed his cases. He
claimed he had no money to pay for
it himself. The lower court held 9th,
erwise. Had the finding of the trial
court stood. Harris would have had
to present his case on a short trans.
cript, which would undoubtedly
meant that his conviction would be
affirmed. Now, however, his case
win be fully presented.
In the opinion the supreme court
says Harris has right to have his
case reviewed by Il.
State House Protected.
The state house Is being equipped
with an additional fire prevention de-
vice which will rake 1t almost i'm
possible for fire to make any head
way in the building on the hill.
A trap valve is being built into the
corner of the building under the gov
ernor's office. This connects with
the city mains which supply the wat
err for fire protection.
In case of fire anywhere in the
building the trap will shut the water
off from all other parts of the build.
ing. BY starting the pumps in the
engineering building across Grand
avenue, the full water pressure can
be concentrated in the standpipes in
any part of the building. Sufficient
force is behind this water to throw
It hundred feet above the top OF
the gilded dome.

WILL SIGN INSURANCE Ell
Governor Gets Opinion From Attor.
ncy General On Omnibus Meas
ure of Auditor.

1t is now believed that Governor
Carroll will sign the omnibus insur
ance bill of the state auditor.
The action. it is supposed. will fol-
low the opinion of Attorney General
Cosson, handed down recently.
The governors main objection was
against certain section of the act
relating to the reinsuring Of risks
taken by the companies other than
life concerns.
The amendment provided that a
company can reinsure in companies
only authorized to do business in
this state"
Governor Carroll contended that
this might be so construed that q
company could reinsure only in a
company doing business in Iowa and
not elsewhere. The attorney general,
in his opinion, holds that it is evil
dent that the legislature intended
otherwise. Hence 1t Is expected that
the governor will now sign the bill.
He asked for the opinion of the at
torney general.
Court Defines Tax Powers.
The supreme court ruled that as
the law makes it the duty of city
councils to define taxing districts, the
inclusion within district of any CIV
en- piece of property cannot be ques-
toned in an action to abate or va
cate the tax.
The case arose in Pottawattamie
county where the Dubuque & Sioux
City Railroad company refused to pay
its taxes on mile of railroad which
lay beyond the fire protection and
light district Of the city. The tax
was levied to pay for these protec-
tions, The railroad company secured
an Injunction preventing the county
treasurer ]. w. Mitchell, from col
lecting the fire protection and lighting
tax on the mile of track lying along
the north line of the city but beyond
the protection district.
The supreme court made the fol.
lowing sweeping ruling in reference
to taxation by city councils:
"The duty of outlining or defining
the district is with the city council
and when 1t has acted we are of the
opinion that the inclusion within
taxing district of any given piece OF
property cannot be questioned in q
collateral proceeding or in an action
to abate or vacate the tax"
Justice Evans dissented.
The court reversed the district
court which gave the injunction to the
railroad company.

This way to meet %pneumonia's swift thrust Is
the discovery of DR.. August Francis Schafer, a
country practitioner of Bakersfield. California. II
DR.. Schafer had been in Paris, instead of an oil
town in the depths of California. we would have
been electrified by his discovery two years ago.
AS it is, he waited until he could bring it forth
with its record of two thousand cases before he
even took into his confidence the nearest medical
society. Without those two thousand cases doc
tors would have been free to doubt. With them
he has met the professional requirement of an in
fallible remedy.
How has he done it? How could a country doc
tor discover what all the laboratories of Europe
have failed to reveal? These are natural ques-
tons. But it was not a huke. The discovery was
not made by accident. DR.. Schafer studied dis
ease germs diligently for ten years and developed
a laboratory not matched in the hospitals of San
Francisco before he injected his a~nti-toxin into a
human being. Then he tried 1t on himself to
make sure that 1t was harmless. He is a scientific
student, with a thorough knowledge OF medicine
and surgery. He would have worked out his theo-
ries anywhere. The accident lay in the fact that
he lived in Bakersfield.
The Pneumonia Test.
No more severe test could have been given the
anti-toxin than Bakersfield has afforded in the
past two years. In that district pneumonia accom-
panies most diseases. often In the duplex form
In ten per cent. of the cases assesses develop In

Moreover, IL comes swiftly anu III buuuchly-
The oil rushes have built towns in a night. Rapid
change, exposure and bad water have been fol
lowed by typhoid and pneumonia. Men have gone
TO bed feeling badly and never seen the end of
the next day. They have fallen in the streets as II
stricken with a plague. But for TWO years now
most of the physicians In that part OF the country
have been inoculating their patients With serum
provided by Or. Schafer. and, contrary to the ex-
perience of all previous rush settlements. there
has been no epidemic of pneumonia.
Extreme cases have been the rule in DR..
schafer's practice. Even after all hope has been
given up. he has pulled patients through. Among
the pneumonia cases cured by him. before he
took the world into his confidence, were:
Two infants.
Twenty children from two to eleven years old.
Eight chronic alcoholics. three OF whom had had
de.irium tremens.
Sixteen cases with measles as well as pneu-
monia.
Three with blood poisoning in their hands and
legs in addition to pneumonia.
Three with peritonitis complications; and
Twenty-two patients over sixty years old.
Among eighteen cases OF duplex iobar pneu-
monia was a man of ninetytwo. an almost UNI
nrecedented recovery. There were. besides. two
cases following operations at childbirth. one three
and the other six days after. The second woman
was In desperate straits when DR.. schafer saw
her. She had a pulse of 1870. when It could be pal

Broadly the remedy is simple. A culture of the
germs In a patient are taken. From each a vac
cine is developed, and an a~ntitoxin, made by mix
Ing the vaccines in the exact proportions in which
the germs are found in the body, is injected In
very large doses. Moderate doses are regarded as
ineffectual, merely serving to further entrench the
~causitiye germs. But. by this remedy, they are
not left standing room. They are cleansed from
the body as with a hose.

FIND ADULTERATED PAPER
New Standards Adopted at Government
Printing Office.

Washington, Dec. Z.--Dscovery o. h.
Joint committee Of Congress on printing
that "adulterated" paper had been used
for years In the Government Printing Office
to-day led TO the announcement Of con-
pIete new set OF standards. The adultera,ion
was accomplished by the substitution of
clay for the more substantial wood or rag
ibres. leading to the grave fear that many
OF the printed records Of the government
will crumble and become unresdable in less
than century.
In the new specifications the use Of clay
and mineral filler is closely restricted. The
committee was told that the use Of clay IN
excess of printing requirements was held
by experts 10 he a deliberate adulteratlon,
cheapenng the cost to the manufactures
and lessening the durability.
Included for the first time in the amount
OF paper the government will buy neN
year will be 10000 pounds Of news print
paper. A large quantity Of this will b
used I'm printing Congressmen's speeches
the coming campaign year as members
themselves have 10 pay for the printing Of
their speeches in pamphlet form.
