SEN. CLARKE ON COTTON TAX
Arkansan Calls Cotton Exchanges
 Gambling Evil.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Washington. -- Senator James P. Clarke of Arkansas addressed the Sen ate on his amendment to impose a tax on trading in cotton where no actual delivery was intended. Senator Clarke declared that the New York Cotton Exchange and its parasite" the New Orleans exchange, were no more than gambling Institutions and that those who speculated in cotton upon their floors were engaged in a wholly sell fish and illegal business. New York, he said, was the chief offender and the New Orleans exchange only "a minor affair" The New York exchange, h. argued, controlled the price of cotton for the whole world.
 'I think the New York exchange. '' said the senator, lis wholly bad and has no rght to exist. Il is 2 "omblinG institution and is so regarded by ev erybody who goes there to trade"

MAKING HEALTn SURVEY
Dr. Von Ezdorf Advises Use of 0uin.
 inc as Preventative.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-Dr K. II. von Ezdorf an agent of the U. s. Public Health Department. is now touring the state investigating the prevalence of ma laria in Arkansas. Dr. von Ezdorf came to the state at the request Of members ot the state board of health. Dr. von EZdorf credits the mosquito as being carrier of maliria and rec ommends that a person avoid expos ing himself to the bite of the pest. Dr. 'on Ezdorf advises those exposed to the bite of the mosquito to take five grains of GIinine morning and night Tor two successive days each week. This will prevent any possibility of ma iarial attacks.
 investigations, conducted by Dr. von Fzdorf In Mobile, Ala, disclosed the fact that In some parts of the city only 15 per cent of the populace were carriers of the disease Failure to treat malaria case properly often times results. the physician says, in an apparently healthy person carrying the germ and disseminating the disease
 A comprehensive study of the ano- rhiline species of mosquito is contem- Ilated in Arkansas, and each forward step will be given the people, for whose benefit the government is mak- ing the investigations
 It is necessary, Dr. von Ezdorf says, to understand the habits of the mos. Guito before any great good may be accomplished for the people. Sanitary drainage with paved streets and com pact homes are the greatest factors in eradicating the pest. he says. It is this cause. he says. that malaria fever is more prevalent in rural districts.
 "ln the old days" Dr. von Ezdorf said. "malArial fever commonly was called swamp fever This resulted because 1t usually was prevalent in swamp sections. We now know posi- lively, however, that the fever result ed from the bite of one species of mosquito which carries malaria--the anophiline
 Dr. von Ezdorf put to rout the theory of many that whiskey will pre- vent an attack of malaria.
 "The mosquito may object to the whis!Iey breath" he said. AS to this l have no knowledge, but be- lieve the insect would bite and would infect one loaded with whskey rath- CT quicker than another, for once the whiskey gains control, it's bearer usu- ally becomes quiet"
 He also asserted watermelons and cantaloupes do not carry the fever germ, saying that 1t may be receiv- ed through the anophiline mosquito only, and Lever through the agency of food, water or air.

AVENUES INTO THE: CITY.

There are people, quite a goodly
number of them, who are Of the opin-
ion that the county should own the
Rock river toll bridges and assume
their care. The County of Rock Is
land, however, is not inclined to take
upon itself any such obligation 1t
will not even let the city push the
bridges on to IT, So the best the city
can do is to look after them. Many
there'are who feel that the city should
own and care for the bridges, not
only in the fulfllment of a sense of
responsibility, but as a matter of ex-
pediency. Truth to say, Rock Island
has not regarded with proper serious
ness the value of its avenues into the
city. II has shown an astonishing dis
regard for its own interests in this
respect. No city that is content to
take just what comes, while other
wide-awake cities make it possible for
people to come to them, will get very
fer ahead. There is a tale Of two
cities under a hill, in which the diff
ference between Indifference and dis
regard and alertness and energy is
sharply contrasted. Moline at this
moment is exerting itself to the ut
most to provide modern highways for
the country folk round about. You
can ride for miles after leaving the
eastern city limits of Moline without
getting off a brick pavement. And be-
sides this, Moline has opened up and
is maintaining a fine roadway directly
out into Rural township. In this way
Moline is attracting the country trade;
its business district is expanding and
ew and metropolitan business block ;
are going up.
Meanwhile, what is Rock Island do
ing? Whatever is doing or has been
doing, the time is at hand to turn over
a new leaf; to not only put, the Rock
river bridges in a safe and permanent
condition but build paved streets from
the city limits to the edges OF the
bridges. The proposed bond issue in
cludes provision for concrete flooring
on the bridges. The need of putting
Ninth street or Twelfth street in per-
manent repair from the city limits 10
Rock river by some method is of
the utmost importance. The citi-
zens of Rock Island should cooperate
with every good road movement con-
templating better highways to all sec
lions of the county
Rock Island needs avenues into the
city, avenues which the farmer may
travel wheeler by automobile or wag-
on.
