A pArt.on.n s..tv~.

All readers OF the Three Musks-
tsers" and admirers of DArtagnan
land who does not admire him? will
be glad to hear that statue Is to be
raised to their hero. It Is to be placed
at Gers In Gascony, which is perhaps
rather far afield, but then D'Artasnan
was, of course, q Gascon. We agree
with NJ. Paul Ginisty In the Debats
that the pedestal OF the statue, at
least, should have a medallion OF the
charming NJ Bonaoicux. M. Ginisty
tells US that DArtagnan was drawn
from life. There was certain Charles
de Batz-Castelmore, Seigneur dAr-
tagnan, who played a heroic part IN
the wars of Louis XIV, and Dumas
took his hero from this character The
real D'Artagnan fought in prodigious
number OF campaigns and was en-
ployed on secret missions by Richelieu
and Louis XIV. Finally he was killed
at the siege OF Maestricht, just when
his fortune YVES at its height. There
Is not, we think, any evidence In Du-
mas book that our hero ever married.
But the real D'Artagnan married and
made a sad mess OF 1t, for he had
very Jealous wife. 1t is possible that
posterity would never have heard Oh
this charming adventurer II 1t had not
been for Dumas.

According to the latest statistics-~
the past year has been the worst
one for livestock diseases since--
1896. The loss from hog cholera
alone amounted to over forty seven
million dollars, and in one middle
western state the loss from this
disease was 2i5 hogs out of every
thousand. -
tuberculosis probably cost the
livestock industry millions of doll
lars-the exact sum cannot be es-
timated. Federal meat inspectors -
condemned twenty-seven thousand
cattle and twenty-nine thousand -
hogs for this one disease. Clan
ders in horses; scabies in Sheep
cholera and roup in poultry, and
contagious abortion in cows cause 60
large losses.
Fortunately, Idaho is compare -
lively free from diseases of serious
nature. Less than one per cent OF -
the cows in the state are tubercu-
lar; practically no hog choIera:-
one small outbreak of swamp fever
in horses; with sporadic outbreaks
of blackleg in calves.
ImpactiOn in horses, caused by
feeding too much grain, hay and
rolled oats; bloat in cattle from
eating damp alfalfa; navel-ill in
colts, contracted by infection;-
worms in pigs and colts, and scab-
les in sheep cause most of tho
livestock loss in this state. OF
course, barbwire injuries, pneumo-
MIA, various digestive disorders, tu-
berculosis and CHAMBERS, together -
with distemper and influenza, con-
tribute their share of loss. -

Entitled to Scat,
Say Friends.

Those who favor Mr. Watsons right
to be ramed a delegate to Baltimore
declare that he is clearly entitled to be
named a delegate primarily because of
his service in bringing about Mr.. I'm
oerwood's victory in Georgia. They say
there would never have been any Dues
ton of Mr.. Watson's going had Mr..
Watson himself not raised the doubt bv
an editorial in his own publication. in
which he said he had decided not to
ask FOR one of the places.
Attitude Suspicious, Say Foes.
On the other hand the anti Watson
ties argue that Mr.. Watsons attitude
of suspicion and hostility to his recent
Underwood comrades is insincere and
assumed TO serve an Interior purpose.
They argue that he is maliciously bent
upon making mischief inside the Dem
ocratic party, and that he is. as rap
idly as ne may, getting himself into his
favorite role of martyr, that he may
stab TO death the Democratic party if
opportunity presents itself bet ween now
and November next.
Very much less than one half of the
Fulton county delegation to the state
convention would agree to discuss the
Watson incident for publication today.
Most of them approached the matter
gingerly, and hesitated to touch it at

osition might become entirely too hot to
