PRETTY MIDDLE Is ON
IN ATLANTA POLITICS
Fielder and Police Departments Are
Scrapping.


Atlanta, May 29.-The upheaval
which Atlantians had hoped M ght Ield
to some kind of a cleanup or reform.
has degenerated, apparently, into a
petty mud-slingiIIg contest between
Tom Fielder and the city detective de-
partment
Instead of becoming specific in their
accusations, they are becoming gene. al
in their yituperations.
Atlantians have been hoping that
one side or the other would turn ID
something definite over night for the
grand jury to take hold of. Instea.
they are treated to the following pas
sages of cheap wit:
There is only one difference ba.
tween those crooks, Lanford and Col
var says Mr.. Fielder. One has been
caught and the other has not"
Here isS&hat Lanford says: II will
make this proposition to Colonel Eel

send him back to Knoxville, without
acquisitions papers, if Colonel Fielder
will agree to accompany one Of nv
men to Columbia, S. c., waving re-
QUESTION papers. Thereby IGwould get

LIFE CHANCE IMPROVING
Youth Today Has Prospect of Longer
Life Ahead Than i'm 1879
New York Herald.)


child under years of age at pres
ent may reasonably look forward to d
life of SO years, while 81 years ago
child of that age could expect to live
only Al years, according to an i'm
portant life table" issued by the de-
partment of health after the most
careful mathematical calculations COW
ering all statistics between 1879 and
the present time.
While the normal expectancy of
child under has been increased eley,
en- years largely through the improve
ments in sanitary conditions, the
fight against tuberculosis, and the ov-
grooming of many of the diseases, such
as diptheria, scarlet fever, and menin-
gifts, which usually affected children,
the expectancy for continued life in
persons more than 40 years old is di-
! minishing. That is, the table prepar-
ed in 1882 by the late DR.. John S. Bill
lings showed that man of 40 years
of age could reasonably expect to live
% 1-2 years more, while the table now
issued shows that man at 40 may
expect to live only % years and
month.
From 40 years on there is a con-
stantly increasing diminution of the
expectancy of life as compared with
the statistics of 81 years ago The re-
port also shows that the female por
ton of the population has a much bet
ter chance to live long than the mae
portion.
i Speaking Of the decrease in the ex-
pectancy of life after 40 years, the
report s-a+o~.
! Within tie last twenty years there
has been a considerable increase in
the mortality from certain diseases
that affect the vital organs of the
body, such as the heart, kidneys, stom-
ach, liver and intestines. The death
rate from cancer, heart diseases and
kidney diseases has increased con-
siderably within a generation.
Accompanying this increased NOR
tally has been an increase in the con-
sumption of spirituous liquors and
ni'roeenious articles Of food-in other
words, TOO much drink and too much
meat, The wear and tear Of the
strenuous life is also factor in this
increase of the death rate The intro.
duction OF easy comfortable, and rap
III means of transportation has seduced
the average individual from his daily
exercise in the open air.
i THE heart that is kent going at n
hlgo rate almost continuously must of
necessity wear out sooner than 1t
otherwise would; the kidneys COM
PEELED to work overtime will break
down sooner or later; the digestive
organs with insufficient periods of re-
pose VIII revolt for good and become
the seat of cancerous growth.
The lesson to be drawn from this
array Of figures is, that the adult of
the present generation is travelling a
pace too fast for his health; rapidly
OF living cannot but end in premature
dying. Never was there greater need
from health standpoint for the prac-
tice OF moderation in all things by the
inhabitants Of our city"

PURER MEATS FOR AMERICUS.

Much good should come from the
crusade that is now being made here
in behalf of purer food, especially in
behalf of the more Clearly handling
of meats. The charge against the
meat dealers has reference both to
the conduct of the slaughter pens and
the meat markets, too.
This crusade was not begun here 100
early, according to the reports made
by the state officials who assisted City
Physician Chambliss in the work of
inspection. The slaughter pens here
have all been condemned. The meat
markets in practically all instances
have been conducted in insanitary
manner. The restaurants have not had
proper screening and cleanliness.
What greater indictment could be
brought against city in regard 10
its food supply, one of the most vital
attributes to the health of munich
pality. No more manifest indicatio /
of conditions here is seen in this pa :
| ticular, unless it be the fact that all
defects are already being remedied
That is the thing which really counted.
AS soon as the meat dealers of thu
city were shown that their handling of
meats was insanitary both in the
slaughter pens and in the meat mar
kets, these dealers proceeded at once
t; install better equipment and to com
ply with the requirements of the city
board of health That is a most whole
some sign. These dealers did net
bicker and complain, but they imme-
diately began to get ready to comply
with the requisites of modern santa.
