plague, the terrible scourge which has
four times in history swept around the
world, spreading disaster and death,
again threatens the United States.
This time the danger is from South
America. The scourge is raging all
along the west coast of that continent.
Uncle Sam is busy making all pos
sible precautions against the spread
Of the disease to this country. Sur
geon General Rupert Blue is in charge
of the campaign
DR.. Blue will be remembered for the
work he did when this country was
last threatened by the plague. Less
than five years ago the disease was
brought to California from Asia, and a
hand-t hand battle was fought with
it in San Francisco. For a long time
the country was alarmed. DIR. Blue
vas pl3 ced in charge of the fight and
the vigorous course he pursued saved
the city from what might have been a
dreadful epidemic In the course of
the campaign practically every rat in
the city was killed, DR.. Blue having
made the discovery that rats more
than any other agency spread the dis
ease.
The danger is not now in San Fran
cisco, but in New Orleans, Mobile, Gal
weston, Pensacola Key West, Tampa,
Savannah, Charleston, Norfolk, Balti-
more and other ports Of entry for
ships from South Americas west coast.
Congress may be asked to grant a
liberal appropriation to fight this new
darger. for 1t is a real danger despite

Chicago, Aug. 5.-Plain words were
spoken tonight in a meeting Of the
platform committee of the Progressive
party following the reading of a ten
tative draft of a platform which rep
resented the ideas of close friends Of
Roosevelt. Hugh T. Halbert, of Min
nesota, called attention to the fact
that the draft did not even note the
birth of the new party; that al
though 1t attacked the Aldrich cur
rency plank 1t did not offer the slight
est remedy. He said the question of
the high cost of living and of adequate
methods for handling the trusts should
be set above all else. Several other
members took a similar stand. After
full discussion by the committee,
the plan of the leaders tonight was to
appoint a sub committee Of seven to

While he recognized the sincerity of

developed In the crossroads store
where the farmers sat around, chewed
tobacco, spit into the sawdust and ex-
changed ideas. added, joking Y, that
no matter what might be said against
tobacco chewing, it must be admitted
that it made men think and that
wherever you found men chewing to-
bacco together you found the real pub
lie opinion of the country.
Imagine my horror when the news
papers next day ignored the rest of
my speech-which I thought not with
out mertt-and gave prominence to
what I said about tobacco chewing,
declaring in the headlines that I said
tobacco chewing made thinkers"
The governor added that a big to-
bacco company also made q photo
graph of one Of the newspaper reports
and used 1t in their advertisement.

who advocated chewing tobacco to de-
