TYPHOID VACCINE
TO Be FURNISHED
THE STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
HAS TAKEN A GREAT STEP
FORWARD.
SCIENTIFIC TREATMENT
For Typhoid Has Been
Successful in This Countryside
scriptioi of Germs and Fight Eade
BY Nature to Cast Them Off.

Columbia-Since the announcement
that the state board of health will
include the free distribution of ty-
phoid vaccine among the other pro-
phylactic measures which have COM
prised so far the immunizing treat
ment for rabies, smallpox vaccine, and
diphtheria antitoxin, much interest is
being taken in this new step forward.
South Carolina, so far as can be
ascertained, is the second state in the
Union to adopt this method of free
distribution.
Vaccination against typhoid is now
fairly on rational scientific basis,
due largely to the success which has
followed its use in the United States,
German and English armies.
The preparation of the vaccine is
comparatively simple, the prime re-
Quisite being the utmost refinement
of psychological technique, since
any carelessness leading to contami-
nation of the vaccine must inevitably
lead to very serious results. To begin
with, the pure culture of the typhoid
bacillus is prepared and proved, by
all usual Identification tests, to be
free from admixture with other germs
and to have the property of produc-
ing what are known as anti-bodies
when injected into animals. 1t is
upon the formation of these anti
bodies that the whole principle of
vaccine therapy is based, since it is
natures process of curing infectious
diseases. When person becomes
infected with the typhoid bacillus, the
resulting symptoms which are called
typhoid fever, indicate the struggle Of
the natural body processes to destroy
and throw off the rapidly multiplying
germs. On one hand the germs null
tiply rapidly in the body, producing
poison, while, on the other hand, hy-
pothetical substances known as anti
bodies are formed

 ArizOnans:
 GREETING: Continuing the plan to work for all Arizona, the Arizona Development Board is sending the following open letter throughout the Territory:
 Please use yonr efforts along the line suggested.
 "Keep in touch" is the watch word of the Arizona Develop ment Board and the Board is anxious that all Arizonans when they are away from home, shall keep in touch with home condi- tlons and progress.
 The Phoenix Board of Trade has extended an earnest invita- tion to all ArizOnans visiting the Pacific coast to make headquar- ters at the Phoenix Bureau in the Chamber of Commerce build ing.
 At the Bureau will be found most of the principal Arizona newspapers, information on all Arizona and a cordial welcome from the representatives of the Salt River valley.
 Arizonans visiting Los Ange- les can have their California ad- dress placed on file so that they may be reached by friends and they in turn may locate friends who have already registered.
 In this way the people of Ari- zona will keep in closer touch and can do much to further the interests of their home land by having their friends call and see the products and pictures of the Territory.

THEIR BLUFF CALLED
DEMOCRATIC PLAY TO GALLERIES
Baked.
Republican Minority In House Proved
More Than Willing to Cooperate
In Action to Prevent corrup-
tion In Elections.

The Democratic leaders in the house
OF Representatives decided. shortly az
ter the president called the extra ses-
sion OF congress. that it would be good
policy and good politics to pass n bill
limiting the expenditures OF candidates
for the senate and the house and en-
forcing publicity in respect TO cam
paign expenses. In due course they
brought the subject up in the house.
and then they experienced their first
shock
The Republican minority not only
agreed to their program. as far as II
went, but endeavored to make the pre-
cautions taken against corruption In
elections apply to primaries also. That
was more reform than the Democratic
leaders wanted. They baked at such
Interference with the struggle for NOM
nations which is often so profitable
to party hustlers and so demoralizing
force in politics. The Republican
propositions for widening the scope OF
the bill were rejected and It was
passed about as II was originally
drawn
Now the Republican majority in the
senate has had its day. The bill has
been greatly enlarged in its applica-
ton to political conditions and evils
and 1t has been strengthened and rem
dered more rigorous in many respects.
AS the senate passed II, primary cleo
lions are covered as we'll as the final
contests between parties. and no can
didate for the senate can spend more
than $4,000 altogether In seeking the
office he desires. The limit for a can
didate for the house, with his term OF
two years against six and only one dis
trict to campaign in instead OF n state,
aas been fixed at $4,000.
This is more reform than the Demo
cratic leaders in congress want. It
goes too far and ties up the candi-
dates inside their own party alto
gether too tightly TO suit many ambiti-
GUS Bourbons. 1t means restraint
OF trade" inside the Democratic fam
lily. That is quite a different matter
from the restriction OF expenditures
by the enemies OF the party.
But will the house dare to reject
the senate's amendments? Can pro.
fessed reformers go before the country
protesting against too much reform
when 1t is along the lines of economy
and honesty in politics?

Sample of Democratic "wisdom..

Part OF colloquy between Repre-.
sentative Hill of Connecticut, and Sims
or tennessee, which occurred in the
house of representatives on May 3.
during the progress OF the debate upon
the Farmers Free List bill. serves to
show how much wisdom the Demo-
Gratis are bringing to bear upon the
tariff question at this time. After
ascertaining that Mr.. Sims. who is a
Democrat. does not know much about
the bill, the discussion took this turn:
Mr.. Sims: To give the gentleman an
honest answer, will say that ] have
not studied the bill
Mr.. Hill: But the gentleman is go
Ing to vote for IT,
Mr.. Sims: Yes.
Mr.. HILL The gentleman is going to
vote for 1t anyway?
Mr.. Sims Yes
Mr.. Hill: Whether It has any effect
on the revenue or not?
Mr.. Sims: Yes.
Mr.. Hill: / would like to ask the
gentleman whether this bill is a bill
for tariff for revenue or a tariff
for protection or a tariff for free
trade?
Mr.. Sims: The present bill? Why,
on its face 1t is a free-trade bill as
far as 1t goes.
And IT is In the light of this sort OF
Democratic wisdom that the tariff is
to be ripped to pieces by the house
ESQ far as the house can do it) and
the business interests Of the country
kept In a useless turmoil for months.

Beyond question the principal reason
for existing backwardness of business

$500. 500, 900.
The share OF imports entering free
