1t has now been full week, and
William Allen White has not taken up
the cudgels of defense for his friends
in the minor league of insurgency, nor
his friends in the major league, of

Unless and provided that there may
not be concealed in two rather mys-
FERROUS references in the editorial col

as a defense of the conduct of the
said insurgents in the Second and Sew
enth and other districts. not herein
before specifically named; districts
wherein they constitute a horde herd
ing themselves and their friends for
Jobs within their desires
These two references are the only
ones which we can find by a somewhat
careful 2erusal of the Emporia papers
for the past week. Here is one of them,
in the Gazette Of November %: There
is one good thing about Frank P. Mac
Lennan's "Reminiscences. So far they
have not touched upon paper bag cook

We must admit that some of these
"Reminiscences of a Newspaper Man

seldom found in his own columns; that
is. a true picture of some of his in

GERM OF LAZY DISEASE SPREAD.
 ING RAPIDLY.
Arlzona and California Infected and Twenty Years Fight for Erad-
 cation Impending.

Washington, Jan. 24.-Five million Americans have hook worm. This is disclosed through the investigation of the origin and progress of the disease by the experts of the Rockefeller com mission. Evidences of the spread of this parasite have been discovered in Arizona, California and other Western states.
 At the annual meeting of the com mission in New York Wednesday a report will be made on the ravages of the disease during the past year.
 Ignorance is the principal difficulty physicians are meeting in the South. The only way to stop the spread of the disease is by teaching the poorer peo- pie to keep themselves clean and in troduce sanitation into their homes, schools and factories.
 That the hookworm germs are be- ing carried almost every day into new territory by people who have contract cd it in infected territories, has been established by the commission.
 The fund of $1,OO0,00O, donated by John D. Rockefeller for the eradica- tion of the disease, was given to ex- tend over a period of five years. Mem bers of the commission say it will take at least 20 years to stamp out the dis ease
