state central committee and Taft
leader, said this Afternoon he was In
doubt about the figures received from

the returns went for Roosevelt by a

Roosevelt leaders said they were
sure of Howard county and pointed
out the vote there was handled by
election officers appointed by friends
Of Taft. With three from Howard,
Roosevelt will have 66 delegates to
the state convention, as compared
with 63 for Taft. Hanna expressed the
opinion that Taft will control the
state convention. Roosevelt leaders,
however, refuse to admit this, saying
the personality Of state delegates will
cut no figure.
Only one county, Garrett, remained
in doubt on the democratic count, and
the result there cannot change the

CURING TUBERCULOSIS.

The most interesting feature of the re-
cent annual report of the Vermont Sana-
torium in Pittsford is the statement con-
corning discharged patients. In the past
three years $50 people have left the in
stitution. The wherea bouts of 3S are un-
known, but reports from the other 212
show that 81, or 45.7 per cent are well
and earning a living, while 40, or 1873
per cent are living, but still taking
treatment. Accepting the figures of So
cal economists as to the average pros
poets of life, the benefit to the state
through restored earning capacity of
these patients, would more than equal
the cost of construction and maintenance
of the institution for four years In other
words, the sanatorium treatment of tu-
berculosis is not only successful from the
humanitarian point of view, but pro-
duces actual practical results. The fig
ures of the medical report would indicate
moreover, that these results would be
even better if more of the cases applying
of the disease. OF the SO patients ad-
mitted this year. only 25 or a little more
than 25 per cent. were incipient cases.
During the past year 12s patients were
treated at Pittsford. The average stay
Of each patient was 20.1 weeks. The re-
suits of treatment were very much bet
ter in the cases of patients who stayed
more than three months than in those
who stayed less than that time.

MIR. FLETcHER's TAX INVENTORIES

What do you most admire in a man?
Isn't it sincerity?
The Phoenix has received communica-
tions from people in Cavendish question
ing the record of Allen M. Fletcher of
that town as a taxpayer.
In announcing his candidacy for the
Republican nomination for governor last
November Mr.. Fletcher, in outlining the
policies which he favored, said that
special attention should be devoted ito
the removal of the inequalities in the
burden of taxation"
The best test of Mr.. Fletchers sim
cerity in this matter would be free
and frank statement of his own record
as taxpayer.
Mr. Fletcher is reputed to be man
of great wealth, in fact he is frequently
referred to as millionaire. The COM
plant is often made that the great diff
ficulty with the operation of our tax
laws is that the people of large wealth
seem to escape their fair share of the
burden of taxation.
Inasmuch as the record of Mr..
Fletcher on the tax question has been
raised in his own town it would be en-
tirely proper for him as candidate for
the highest executive office in the state,
to take the people of the whole state in
to his confidence and to tell them ex-
actly what the facts in the case are.
If Mr.. Fletcher or any of his stanch
supporters will tell just what he has
done in making out his inventory of
taxes since he became resident of
Cavendish The Phoenix will gladly pub
lsh the statement.

Livingstone Wants to Meet Hanson.

In a letter to The Phoenix, received
Friday "Smiler' Livingstone, the Hart

rounding into shape and that he is look
ing forward to a match with Fritz Han
son, the local welterweight He expected
to begin training this week. He said that
since seeing Hanson work here against
Sammy Mitchell, who was substituted
for "Smiler' several weeks ago. he is
more confident than ever of his ability
to throw the local man. The Hartford
wrestler signed his letter "Smiler Liv-
ingstone, champion wrestler of the world"
According to the editor of the Police
Gazette, which is the recognized sporting
authority in this country and to which
"Smiler' when he was here, advised the
audience to write if they had any doubts
as to his right to that title, there is no
champion welterweight wrestler of the
world The Gazette never has recognized
anyone as such.
