Do the progressive members favor a
law coming before the Washington
legislature? Then it is the duty Of
republicans to oppose it. Whether it
is a good or bad measure is not so
important as the fact that the progress
sives favor it. No good can come out
of Nazareth.

One Of the really sensible and meri-
torious things that the Washington legis-
lature has undertaken is to give state
aid to the Quincy valley irrigation pro-
ject. This project might be put
squarely on its feet without costing the
state one penny. There is neither
speculation or risk about the state
guaranteeing the interest on the hun
bred dollars it will require to make each
acre of fertile land perpetually produc-
tive by putting water on it. 1t is as il
the state had one dollar in gold fol
every dollar it guaranteed the payment

Bristol, Va, January ls.-Captain
Jacob {. Kent. OF this city. a weli-known
passenger conductor of the Virginia and
Southwestern Railway. who fell into
a turn-table pit more than a year and
a half ago and was seriously injured
has reported for duty after one Of the
most remarkable surgical operations on
record. with the bone in his left leg
spliced near the thigh with d steal bar.
held into place by four ordinary wooden
screws driven into il, and with the flesh
healed back over the whole. Captain
Kent Is able 10 walk with slight assist
ance from a cane. which he carries,
however. more out of precaution than
from necessity.
The accident occurred in August, 1911.
at the Virginia and Southwestern shops
in this city. Captain Kent was walking
on the yards near the shops before day
break and in the darkness. he walked
into the unprotected engine-pit. Among
his injuries the worst was the breaking
of the bone in his left leg. midway
between the knee and the thigh.
Refused to Knit.
The bone was set by local surgeons
and after several weeks II was examined.
It was found that II had refused to
knit Another futile EFFORT Was made
10 have 1t heal. following which Captain
Kent was taken east and examined by
noted bone specialists. They said that
the bone was in such condition that the
only way IL would knit would be to cut
a little of each end, thereby making the
leg shorter. This was repeated. but
still the bone refused to knit. II was
tried over and over until the leg became
two and a half inches shorter than the
right leg. Then the surgeons gave up
ali hope of the bone ever knitting. The
condition of the patient had become
critical and IL was thought that there
was little hope OF his recovery and no
hope of saving the leg
The general condition of the patient
i'm proved. and finally an Eastern sur
geon suggested that he be allowed 70
perform an operation which he thought
would give the patient use of the broken
leg This was offered as the only al
tentative to amputation.
Inserted Steel Plate.
The patient was taken to an Eastern
hospital and an incision made down the
leg about ten inches in length The
physicians cut two inches through TO the
bone and laid back the flesh on either
side 4 steel plate about eight inches in
was procured 1t was made in thickness
sufficient to bare the strain 70 which 1t
was TO be subjected. -Four screw holes
were drilled through II and as many
ordinary three-Guar ter-inch wood
screws procured. The plate was fitted
tightly against the bone, with the brake
about the centre of IL. With d screw
driver the screws were driven through
the plate two on either side of the
brake, until the plate adhered snugly to
