DEMOCRATS WARN T. R.
Old Resolution As to a Third Term
Re-introduced In Conuress.

Washington, Feb. Representa-
tive James l.. Slayden, of Texas, has
introduced in the house of representa-
tives resolution which was recog-
nized as facsimile of the resolution
adopted by the house of representa-
tives in 1874 when President Ulysses
S. Grant was a candidate for a third
term as president.
The resolution presumably has been
re.introduced for the purpose of stat
ing the opinion of the democrats of
the house, that Mr.. Roosevelt, who is
now believed by the democrats to be
an active candidate for the presi-
dency, shall not have third term.
The wording of the resolution is as
follows:
Resolved, That. in the opinion of
this house the precedent established by
the United States, in retiring from the
presidential office after their second
term has become, by universal concur
renee, part of our republican system
of government and that any departure
from this time honOred custom will he

A ramshackle building In Winston.
Salem was recently burned at the re-
quest of the local Anti-Tuberculosi
league, because 1t was said to be alive
with tuberculosis germs and could not
be properly fumigated.
For days before the building was
burned huge placards announcing the
hour OF destruction and giving rea-
sons for the burning were hung about
In prominent places. Among other
things the placards said: within the
past Is months two men who sold
fruit, ETC., here have died Ut tuber-
culosis but unconsciously left millions
OF tuberculosis germs by careless
splitting. The building is so open that
1t cannot be effectively fumigated.
The only practical means of disinfect-
Ing is by fire."
AT the appointed hour, while mil
lions of tuberculosis germs were be-
ing burned, 5000 pamphlets telling
how to prevent consumption, were dis
tributed to the crowd looking on.

who like to go to sea when they could
get home to dinner" This gibe would
have little point in the Philippines, the
coast line OF which has been found to
measure more than IL, 900 miles-to be
exact, 11,511 statute miles. In the
Philippines there is one mile Of coast
to every ten miles Of area, the total
area Of the islands being 1850 square
statute miles. These figures are inter-
esting when ii is considered that the
ratio in the United States is 232 square
miles OF area to one mile of coast line.
The figures for the United States have
reference to the coast line Of the main
part OF the country, including islands
lying near the coast, but not including
noncontiguous territory, such as Alas
ka and Porto Rico. The coast line of
the United States so measured, with
what the experts call three mile
steps," is 1926 statute miles, less than
1900 miles in excess of the coast line
Of our eastern possessions.-New York
