THE cold, undisputed figures secured
by the Senate investigating committee
within the past week or two show that
the present campaign OF Col. Roosevelt
is being financed by the trusts, Just as
was the case during his previous political
fight. II was testified that S5S,0O0 has
been contributed by Frank A. MunSey,
the largest individual holder OF common
stock of the Steel Trust; George W. Per-
kins, the head OF the Harvester Trust,
put up So, 200 of his OWN money and
raised from others a great deal more;
William Flynn, the Pinsburg boss, gave
$4,000; Dan Hanna, the son OF his
father, contributed sl77,0OO. Does any
sane man believe that men OF this sort
are putting up such enormous sums OF
money for purely patriotic reasons ?

WHEN the meeting which resulted in
DR.. Hatfield being made the nominee OF
the Republican party for Governor was
held in Washington last spring, one OF
the most active supporters OF DR.. Hatfield
in the conference was Editor H. c. Ogden,
OF the Wheeling Intelligencer. Since the
formal announcement\pf DR.. Hatfield's
nomination Mr. Ogden md the Intelligent
Ger have been about the most ardent sup
porers DR.. Hatfield has had. II is inter-
esting, therefore, to know what IS Mr.
Ogden's real opinion ci the man he is
supporting. In 1908 his opinion was not
such as would warrant one in believing
the Doctor suitable candidate for Gov
ernor, and he did not hesitate to express
his opinion in emphatic terms then. Ed
itor Ogden, on September 2, 1908, pub
lished the following editorial in the Wheel
ing Iatelligencer:
THE "LEADERS" IN MCDOWELL.
One DR.. HATFIELD seems 10 share with
A. L. Calhoun, proprietor and manager Of
various low resorts, the dubious honor OF
being the real head OF the SwiSher organ
izaiion in Mcdowell county. Isaac T.
Mann furnishes the money and figures in
the prints as the big boss, but Hatfield
and Calhoun round up the 1900 or 5000
negroes and dispose OF their votes. This
is all preliminary 10 a notation of the fact
that Hatfield has just broken into prom
inence by brutally beating up Demo-
cratic editor, who had The temerity TO call
attention to the disgraceful social and
political conditions that prevail in Nc
DoweIl county. After nearly killing his
man, he went before an accommodating
justice OF the peace and was fined trifle
TOR his amusement. This is a specimen
OF the nen and OF the methods by which
IT is expected TO roll I'D an unprecedented
majority for SwiSher in Mcdowell coun-
ty. Hatfield, the man-killer; Calhoun,
the dive-keeper, and Whyte, the default
ing ex-sheriff, are precious THO.
No Democratic speaker or editor has
said anything OF DR.. Hatfield half so Sc
we're as the Republican organ OF this State.
II so bad man in 1908 can have become
an ideal candidate for Governor by 1912,
then indeed shall we ready to believe
that the leopard can change his spots.

BLAMEs FLIES FOR TYPHOID
BacterIologist's Opinion OF Recur
rent Epidemics at Newark,
Del.

Wilmington, Del.-"The recurrent
epidemics of typhoid fever at Newark
Del. are due to the spread of ty
phoid germs by flies. There is no
doubt about this"
This declaration was made today by
DR.. Albert Robin. one of the foremost
psychologists in tne east and for four
years bacteriologist in the state labo
ratory in connection with Delaware
college at Newark. DR.. Robin. now a
resident of Wilmington. continued:
The four years that | spent at
Newark enabled me to learn all about
the town. The present outbreak OF
typhoid fever is traceable entirely to
flies. The town has no system OF
sewerage. AS a result filth is not car.
ried away; 1t remains on the surface
and in cesspools. The water supply is
absolutely pure.
When a single case of this dread
disease manlfests itself, especially in
summer, It is not long before other
cases develop. This Is because flies
carry the germs from the filth to the
homes of prospective victims by
crawling over their food.
There are now upward OF dozen
cases in the town, a majority Of them
being among colored people who have
no screens In the windows of their
homes. AS long as Newark remains
without a system Of sewers Just SO
long win It be impossible to prevent
these epidemics at intervals. II Is
not possible to kill all the flies. but II
is possible for the town to install
sewers"
When a serious epidemic Of typhoid
occurred at Newark couple of years
ago and caused number OF deaths
the authorities OF the town conducted
an exhaustive investigation as to the
origin without results. Prof Freiden-
berg, a member of the Delaware col
lcge faculty. died from the disease. as
dla -rveral students.

Kent Conn.--~Fifty dollars cash bo-
nus and two months rent free to any
body who viii live not less than two
months In this house."
Such IL the si-s > ss...5sh Esra Blake.
wealthy landowner, has put up on
one OF bis houses In the negro quarter
near here.
Among negroes the house is re-
puted AZ haunted" Up to a month
ago II was never known to have any
spiritual visitors. But the last ten
ants. a couple named Jackson. after
living In It for ave years, had a ghost
ly visitor one night, and since then
Mrs. Jackson declares that q ghost
chased her up the back stairs. and
Mr.. Jackson oorroborates her
Jackson was first to hear queer
noises, and he aroused his wife.
Josephine" he called, 9Th suah an
arful queer SCUM In de cellari"
Josephine listened, and there cana
to her ear sound Of low moaning.
punctuated BY sibilant whisperings.
Josephine trembled. but jackson leap
ed out Of bed He said he'd ''investi-
gate the matter thoroughly"
Josephine" he said, you go down
cellar and see wha' TO- that noise is. III
you need any help, why jes call me.
that's all. jes call me-"
( Josephine demurred, but Jackson
was frms so Josephine went down
stairs. while jackson sat behind the
washstand.
He didn't have long to wait. Joseph
inc come back shrieking: NAH God.
it's arter mel"
jackson didn't wait to see what 1T"
was, but spraing through the window
to the porch roof and slid" down a
post to the ground The last Joseph
inc saw of him he was sprinting up
the road leading to their nearest me-
gro neighbor. AS he ran Josephine's
shrieks were as wings to his legs.
jackson would have given $4,000 If he
had it-so he said afterward-to have
mad that ghost right then. What he
would have done to it would have been
a plenty.
AS it was, he hoofed it right along
to his neighbours and told his story.
Jackson and his neighbor returned
to the house to rescue Josephine, but
when they reached the house the
shrieks had ceased. Evidently she was
gone, but the intrepid pair waited a
few yards away for the ghost
Presently young Nose Johnson es-
pied flimsy white figure fitting past
the upstair window. He let fly an APP
pie. 1t hit the white-robed figure
square In the face. The head was
poked into the window.
Nose Johnson!" it shrieked. IN
smash your everlastin' good-for-nuffin'
niger head for you"
1t sounded like the voice of Jo-
sephine. And. In fact, as Nose did
a quickstep up the road. Josephine
darted down the back stairs.
Nothing could induce Josephine to
return, though her husband limited to
her that her attire was not quite the
thing for the street, SO the couple |
spent the rest of the night at neigh |
boris house. Since then not negro
has crossed the threshold OF the
haunted house"
Blake recently spent considerable
money repairing the place, and he
says he does not propose to be rob
bed of his house by a superstitioui
prejudice"
