agement, inspire hope, and fire with
worthy zeal. He vitalizes the dor
mant energies and makes the faint
heart strong. He puts the patient in
fighting mood and in degree makes
him tight his own battle. The Osteo-
path will tell the average sick man
to eat less and breathe more; hate

Legal Status Of osteopathy.
The Osteopath now has become re.
spectacle. He has legal standing
in all states in the Union. And the
drug habit is falling into disgrace
with all and every school of medicine.
The prophecies made by Doctor Still
thirty years ago are coming true, My
criticism on Osteopathy would be
principally that the name does not
designate all that the science is. II

lnat is to say, they were practising
medicine without license.
II was in vain that they pleaded
that hey gave no medicine and that
.Aey re endeavoring merely to
bring about right relationship be-
tween the man and his environment
Their argument was scoffed-they
were trying to heal the sick And
the fact that their patients got well
was construed as proof of guilt. In
certain cases prosecution and perse.
cution followed few were impris.

thing can be stamped out Of existence
unless you turn to and kill everybody
who is UNFOLDING it.
Osteopathy increased in popularity.
for the simple reason that IL gave
people relief without risk-also, with
out undue expense. Those who were
sick usually got we'll. and II any OF
the friends suffered they, too, were
inclined to take up osteopathy.
Colleges Of osteopathy.
And so today there are eight col
leges in America teaching Osteopathy.
There are about six thousand osteop-
athic practitioners located all over
the United States, besides good
many mere wlo are scattered all over
the civilized world. The Osteopath
is simply good mechanic. He re
CARDS the human body as machine.
His business is to know the workings

The osteopath will tell you of the
necessity of keeping active and being
useful, of keeping out the crouch and
the growl and the grab. Fear. doubt
and hate react on the circulation. Neu
rology plays big part in all disease
and every Osteopath knows it full
well. The Osteopath neither robs MOI

Indications Point to Speaker
Champ Clark AS Choice
for Democratic Nomina-
ton for President.

Baltimore, June Do William }.
Bryan met defeat at the hands of the
democratic national convention today
and in the opinion of many OF the
party leaders he eliminated himself
from the race for the presidential
nomination.
The vote by which former Judge AL
ton b. Parker, of New York, was cleo
ted temporary chairman over Mr..
Bryan-570 to 5l0-was Interpreted to-
night in many ways. The Champ
Clark adherents are claiming thenom-
nations and many believed today it
would either be Speaker Clark or a
s.dark horse.n Talk Of Mr.. Bryan has
not ceased by any means. Some Of his
81, friends say today vote was no test;
that many of his most ardent supper
tiers were compelled by circumstances
to vote against him as temporary
chairman. They claimed, on the other
hand, that the vote of 80 given 10 Mr.
Bryan indicated that he held a "veto"
power in the convention which put
him in position Of dominance as TO
who shotlld be the nominee.
Many of Speaker Clark's delegates
openly threw their supportto the anti
Bryan forces. This was regarded as
opening breach between the speaker
and the former nominee which may
cause the Bryan supporters to make a
bitter fight on Clark. Taken from an
other standpoint the vote Of SO many
of the Clark adhercnts for Judge Par
ker was interpreted as distinct bid
for the support of the conservative Gle
ment in the convention.
This conservative elements 1T may be
stated, practically is prepared TO ac
cept radical or progressive candidate
They frankly admit that 30 name &
conservative or so-called reactionary
would strengthen Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt in his organization of {
third party. This the leaders are anX
ious TO avoid.
The turn of political affairs in tht
past few days is regarded here as hav
ing been decidedly favorable to Speaker
Clark's candidacy. The straight ou
Wilson delegates today threw thei
support solidly to Mr.. Bryan. This
the leaders figured, woHid make thu

TYPHOID FEVER
AND THE TJTANTIC

AN ~ ~ ~ ~
Last April over fifteen hundred
people persisted on the Titantic. The
news Of this, the greatest ocean catas-
trophe of the age, shocked the world.
The worst feature of it all was that it
might easily have been avoided had
the captain of the Inflated vessel heed
ed the warning of danger ahead, or if
sufficient life-boats had been provided.
After the catastrophe the United States
Congress rushed a special investigating
committee TO New York, which met
the rescuing ship with her load of sur
vivors and conducted an investigation
Immediately. This committee fully in
vestigated the cause of the disaster and
made voIuminous report, including
recommendations regarding the equip
ment of sea-going vessels, their lines
of travel, and many other things. 1t
has been recommended that certain
International legislation be made reg
ulating ocean traffic.
Now, all of this is very good and
much to the point, but last year over
fifteen hundred North Carolinians died
OF typhoid fever, and twenty thousand
others suffered from the disease. The
greater part of this awful loss might
have been aVerted in our cities if our
city authorities had needed the many
timely warnings Of health officers and
sanitariams and provided an unques-
tionably pure public water supply. land
if they had passed and enforced ordi-
nances requiring the sale of equally
pure milk, and other ordinances di-
rected against flies and filth. Likewise,
much of it could have been averted in
the country If the people there had
been equally carefuly1n regard TO their
do it? Vital statistics report Of the
various towns in the state show where
they did not. No vital statistics, how
ever,are available for the rural districts
Of North Carolina. Did Congress ap-
point an Investigating committee 10
determine the cause Of this fearful loss
of life and make recommendation
viii the coming Legislature make an
investigation Of the matter? Did your
own local county officials or city
council ever consider the matter? Very
few have. Why? Are our own citizens
and brethren Of 50 much less value OF
Importance than the passengers on The
Titantic? No. The reason is simply
This; The Titanlic disaster was specta-
cular and unusual. The continual loss
from typhoid is neither unusal nor
spectacular, We have become &C
customed to it. We used to think that
such things had TO be, that they were
unpreventabIe, but now we know that

Mr.. Sparks spoke in part as follows:
"For several reasons our town
should have debating Society" for
the young men of our town of all de-
nominations, and all Others who wish
to participate. 1t matters how small
neither how large, how old neither how
young you are, you are welcomed here
to this rest room each week on Thurs
day night at 1880 o'clock, fust imme-
diately after train No. 102 has passed
through the city giving those chance
who find 1t necessary to meet said
train at time of arrival to come to this
room and take part or listen as they
choose.
"The Ladies' of Newport are to be
congratulated for their thoughtfulness
of being SO kind and clever in turning
this rest room into the care of the
young men of the town one or two
nights of each week. We should feeI
proud of such mothers and sisters.
We should grasp this opportunity
by the forelock and take advantage of
each opportunity that they have made
possible for us TO enjoy. And by do
ing so we shall prosper thereby. We
owe to them the gratitude of no small
degree for turning this room into our
hands tonight and each night hereafter
that we shall meet here.
"We want the cooperation of each
young man in Newport in this work
as we begin. We want the assistance
of each pastor and the cooperation of
each church in town. | feel like we
shall make success Of this Society.
! feel like we shall be assisted by all
who ere i'll favor OF upbuilding our lit
tie city, all who are interested in de-
veloping the minds of our boys, train
ing them to speak in public, which al
most every boy desires to do. We
maY'not reach the t0pmost heights of
power and distinction like Bryan,
Roosevelt or Hooper in oratory but
remember each Of us have the same
chance; let us set cur aims to prosper
as much as possible along this line
alone.
We, as American 5oys.are proncd to
wander into idicness, take up bad
habits and do things that are not bene-
fetal to mankind. Why not always
strive to do the right thing? Put idle
ness aside, put fooiishncss afar Off and
abolish bad habits entirely. Let us
try to make this society one that Will
meet with the approval of all interest
ed, make it lively for all who attend
and put some ginger into especially
the debating exercises of each program.
