MEASURING MEN

Senator Culbcrson Of Texas is
reputed to have expressed the
opinion that Champ Clark would
be the strongest man to hear tic
standard of democracy in 1912.
This has set many newspapers to
making estimates of Mr.. Clark in
that connection.
Our thought is, he is 0 com

Kinley as he was when a member
of congress than any other public

like Mckinley much loved by his
friends with q host of friends in
his train.
Speaking Of friends MIR. Clark
has the same faculty of drawing
personal friends from the opposite
party that Mr.. Mckinley had. In
this respect Mr.. Clark may be con-
trasted, as was MIR. Mckinley with
President Harrison. Mr.. Clark has

life time two friends to General
HarrisOn's one; solely lccausc the

'Cuestiones sanitarias
Ell PAI4UDISMO Y LA
FIEBRE TIFOIDEA

Por conducto de La Junta Superior de
Sanidad hemOs recibido ell siguiente in
forme de la junta local de Sanidad de
Yauco, que Sc ha pubEcado reciente-
mente.
Con motive de la implantaci6n de la
nueva Ley de Sanidad y del recrudeci-
miento que han sufrido en- estos 1lti-
mos meses en- Yauco, y SUI Jurisdiction
el paludiSmo y la fiebre tifoidea, La Jun
la Local de Sanidad de este pueblo ha
creido opOrtuno dirigir esta circular q
sus convecinos para recordarles ell cum
plimento de las prescripciones content
das Ell los nuevos Reglamentos de Sa-
nidad y exponerles, siquiera sea somera-
mente, algunas consideraciones sobre ell
mOdo de evitar la production propa-
gaci0n de dichaS infecciones.
Muy cerca tenemOs ell ejemplo de los
maravillOSOS resultadOS que Sc Obtienen
mOditicandO, pOr medic de la Hygiene,

FL saneamientO de la Habana y Santia--
go de Cuba ha llamado pOderosamente.
la atenci0n del mundo civilizado pues
alli donde reinaban, entire otras infeccio-
nes, el paludismo y la febre amarillo
hoy ha disminuido considerablemente ell
niimero de casos de la primera, y ape
mas Sc observa alguno de la segunda, no
propagandose ell contagio mereed a la
energica campana sanitaria que ALI Sc
ha llevado cabo.
ES verdad que tenemos que fmchar en-
YaucO con un gran Inconvenience para
hacer efectivas muchas de las prescrip-
clones de la nueva Ley de .Sanidad, cual
es la falta de acueducto; pero hay que
tener en- cuenta que puede alcanzarse
mucho, sin el pOderoso auxiliar del acue-
ducto, para mejorar las condolences sa-
nitarias de Yauco.
Con respectO a la manera de :comba-
tir el paludismo, hay que recordar que
hoy es una verdad cientifica, plenamente
demOstrada, que el Origen y propagation
de dcha infection son debidos la pi-
cadura de cierta variedad de mosquitoes
de genero ''Anopoles, que extraen de
la sangre del hombre enfermo ell parasitic
productor de la enfermedad, y 10 inocu-
Ian al sanO. Asi pueS es precise COM
batir por tOdOs los mediOs que la ciencia
pOne nuestrO alcance la production de
las larvas del mosquito, pues una vez
desarrolladO el insecto es mucho mas
dificil su extinction.
Donde quiera que exista "agua estan-
cada ., por pequeIla que sea su cantidad,
puede cOnvertirse en- un criadero de
mosquitoes; asi es q. hay q. evitar dicho
estancamientO, y cuando no sea possible
evitarle, pOner en- practica las medidas
que la hygiene pOne a nuestro alcance
para que no pueda repr0ducirse ell in

en- cuyos patiOs hay barriles que contie-
men aqua, va para ell riego del jardln va
para ell consume de la familia, debe ex-
tenderse una capa de petr6leo en- la SUI
perficie del aqua, en- ell primer case, y
de aceite de olivas en- ell segundo, .pnes
en- ambos liquidos no Sc desarrollan las
larvas del mosquito.

veces focos criaderos de mosquitoes.
La tela metalica debe sustituir a las
persianas 8 cristales de las ventanas,
pues de este modo no penetra en- las
habitaciones ell mosquitoes y ell aire cir

En- 10 que respecta a la production y
propagation de la fiebre tifoidea que
tiende a hacerse endemica en- Yauco y
en- la meyor parte de las poblaciones de
Puerto Rico, podemos combatirla tam
bien poderosamente, teniendo en-. cuen-
ia los datos cientlfcos adquiridos sobre
esta mortifera infection.
La 'Etiologla Hidrica', es decir, la
production de la febre tifoidea por be-
ber aqua contaminada con ell inicrorga-
nismo espec1fico, es otro dato cient1fca-
mente adquirido y son va muy pocas las
autoridades m6dicas que defender aun
la propagation de esta infection por
medic del aire.
Asl pues, nuestro primer cuidado pa
ra evitar la enfermedad es tratar. que
ell aqua que bebamos sea filtrada her
vida preferir, dadas las condiciones
sanitarias actuales en- Yauco, la de llu-
via 4 la del rio, siempre que sea posi-
BILE conseguirla.
La desinfecci0n de las ropas Y de la
"excreta'' del enfermo de febre tifoi-
dea, es indispensable, y los vecinos de
Yauco esta en- la obligation de denun-
ciar a las autoridades sanitarias cual-
quier case de esta infection, asl como de
cualquier otro de las Intermediates
transmisibles para tomar las medidas
oportunas de. aislamiento de desinfec-
cion que son de rigor en- estos casos.
Mucho podrlamos extendernos expli-
cando ell origen y desarrollo de otras
afecciones que hoy die1mam nuestro

70 nuestro objeto, como dijimos antes
ha sido solo lamar La atenci6n a nl1es-

NO REASON FOR 1T
You Are Shown the Way Out

There can be no just reason why any
reader of this will continue to suffer
the tortures of an aching back, the an
noyance of urinary disorders, the dan
gers of serious kidney ills when relief
is so near at hand and the most posi-
tive proof given that these ills can be
cured. The following is convincing
proof:
Mrs. NJ. Keller, 633 White Ave,
Grand Junction, Colo, says: ''I was
greatly pleased with the benefit / OBJ
tai ?ed from the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills two and half years ago AMI at
that time I did not hesitate to publicly
recommend this remedy. I still think
highly of Doan's Kidney Pills, as there
has been no return of the attack of my
former trouble. At one time l was so
bad as the result of pains in the small
of my back and hips that could hard
ly walk. A misstep or sudden wrench
caused me to suffer acutely and the
least cold l caught settled in my kid
neys, making my condition much worse.
L believe that the alkali in the drink
ing water here was responsible for my
complaint. Less than the contents of
one box of Doan' Kidney Pills suffice1
to rid ME of all my pains and aches
and restore my kidneys to their normal
condition. The great value of this
remedy should be known to other SUIT
ferers from kidney trouble

TAYLOR WILL BOOST HIGH LINE

Congressman E. T. Taylor of Glen
wood Springs, representative from this
section, and well known here as one of
the best friends the Grand valley and
especially Grand Junction has, a hari
and efficient worker, has promised that
he will take up the matter of the
early construction of the High Line
canal at the first opportunity when he
returns to Washington and that he will
do all in his power to bring about
realization of the hopes of the people
here.
Arrangements have been completed
for lecture by Congressman Taylor,
to be given in this city within the next
three weeks on Panama Canal" He
has made special study of this great
government project, from the scientific
standpoint as well as the tremendous
commercial proposition which will come
to the fore when it is ready to pass
ships through from the Atlantic to the
Pacific. Superintendent Allen is now
in correspondence with the congress
man and arrangements will be con-
pleted soon.
Congressman Taylor is coming TO
Grand Junction to familiarize himself
with the local conditions before he goes
to Washington for the legislation which
is coming up. He will look over the
needs here as has always been the case,
will do everything in his power to fur
ther the best interests here by legis-
lation.-Grand Junction Sentinel.

KANSAS o. 4.
backward

The fastidious New York Evening
Post, editorial arbiter elegantiariuni,
decides that "Mr. Taft's experience
proves absolutely that there is nothing
sas.n
Good! We were little afraid the
Post would apply the bastinado Of its
fine sarcasm to Governor Stubbs for in-
Producing the president to an audience
as "Bill Taft But it seems Stubbs
was all right in his company manners.
There is no doubt, at all events, that
there was nothing the matter with the
heart of Kansas when it entertained
the president.
1t met him with the open hand and
listened to him with the open mind. 1t
did not agree with him always. But it
agreed with him mostly; and he will
get no heartier cheers anywhere than
those that greeted his really and sanely
progressive sentiments and his unfai!-
ing pluck and good nature in his friend
ly invasion of the classic land of popu-
lism.
There will be nothing the matter
with Kansas when the presidential nom-
mating is over and the question re-
solves itself into one of re-electing the
next president of the United States
