COCHRAN CARRIES
PASS; WEST ANGRY
O.-W. X. 6 n. Asked How la Grande
State Official Comes to Have An
Annual Ticket

Salem, Or, April 11.-Where does
the O.-W. R. & N. railroad company
gets its authority for issuing a pass
to George T. Cochran, of La Grande
state water commissioner for the
second water district, and where does
Mr.. Cochran get his authority for
accepting the same?
Those are the very pertinent ques-
tions that Governor West is pro-
pounding to w. w. Cotton, general
attorney for the railroad company.
The governor states he has infor-
nation that Mr.. Cochran is in pos
session of the company's annual pass
No. C-7235, of the 1913 issue, which
pass he used in the months of jan
uary. February and March. He says
last year Mr. Cochran held pass No.
C-9452.
The law creating the state rail-
road commission and regulating rail-
roads in oregon prohibits the issu-
anCe or any passes or reduced fares
to any persons except officials, en-
ployes and attorneys Of the company.
If the company officials should
plead that Cochran was an attorney
for the company, then the question of
where he gets his authority for en-
gaging in the practice of law be-
comes emphasized. Section of the
water code of oregon, under the pro-
vision of which Cochran was elected
and is serving as water commissioner
for the second district, says:
Each division superintendent shall
receive a salary of $4,000 per annum,
in full compensation for all services,
and shall in addition thereto be paid
his actual travelling expenses hen
called away from home in the per-
formanme of his duties. Such salary
and expenses shall be paid at the
same time and in the same manner
as those of other state officers. Such
division superintendent shall not en-
gage in any other business"
To accept a pass from a railroad
company Is a misdemeanor. For each
use of such pass the holder Is sub
iect to fine of $50 to $1,000.

TUBERCULOSIS CURE
WITHIN A FEW YEARS.
Homeopath Physician Thinks The
X.Ray Will BE Used With Heal
ing Effects.

Denver, Col, Aug. Pot will
be possible in 10 years to eliminate
tuberculosis of the lungs"
This statement, made by DR.. JEFF
ferson D. Gibson, pulmonary tu-
berculosis specialists of Denver and
originator of a plan by which the
dread disease which kills more per-
sons than any other malady can
be stayed, has resulted in appeals
from thousands all over the coun-
try for more details Of his proposed
treatment. DR.. Gibson's statement
was made before the convention of
homeopathic physicians held here
recently. Many physicians have
commended and approved DR.. Glib
sons treatment, but there have
been others.to criticize it adversely.
DR.. Gibson proposes to eliminate
tuberculosis of the lungs by an
X-ray treatment, augmented by in
lection of a serum, sunlight and
fresh air. His somewhat technical
explanation of the treatment before
the physicians convention has not
been fully understood by laymen,
and to answer his critics he today
gave a practical explanation.

It's like this here, Mr.. Reporter,

Was quite a proper swell.

And so we scrubbed her thorough

Well, cutting off my story short,
To come to what befell,

So we rugged her out with brand

At last We put to sea again
And started for the west.
All spick and span. without a stain.

Which quite upset the trip.

Attempt to Defeat The Royal Family.

George n. Numsen, one of the
directors of the fight OF the pro-
gressive Democrats to drive the ma
chine from power in Baltimore city.
sounded the call to arms to the
voters of that city yesterday.
For years the advocates Of
good government here have been
protesting against bossism. For the
first time in history the right-think-
ing people now have an opportunity
to rescue the Democracy from the
hands OF the gang said Mr..
Numsen.
Democrats who believe in the
Wllson-Bryan Democracy have been
placed In nomination in every dis
trict, and IL real progressives have
entered the fight for places on the
State Central Committee. which is
the real governing body of the par
ty. It Is now up to the voters to
elect them and defeat the bench
men. Of the royal family in the
coming primaries.
These progressive candidates
were not selected arbitrarily. The
ward people have got together. and
in an open and above-board man
ner. united on candidates capable
and best suited for the positions.
Some OF the candidates volunteered
to make the fight. There is not
the slightest dissatisfaction in our
ranks
Our action in declaring war on
the organization has made the pro-
gressive Democrats OF the counties
more hopeful for rejuvenation of
tho party and that Is attested by
the scores of letters which We
have received from all parts of the
State.
I'VE have for the first time. an
excellent chance to reorganize. the
Democracy Of Maryland along lines
which are in accord with the prin-
ciples enunciated by Woodrow Will
son. And I believe the people of
the State, irrespective of party
ties, will assist us incur mission.
'The public has the chance 90
express its opinion definitely in the
city fight. The organization, by
naming the same set of men to
serve on the central committee, has
thrown down the gauntlet and we
viii contest them to the finish
The progressive candidates are
lively and energetic and are even
now busy going among the people
with their petitions. They are all
optimistic and their spirit is APP
parently spreading to the people.
In fact. We have the best start in
the history OF INTERPRETATION poll
tics.
So far We have had no trouble
In Eettins yotere 70 pledge in writ
ing their spontaneous support. We
do not have to explain our platform
or policies. AL thinking voters
have to be told Is that we are
Against the gang and they fall
Seadily in line.
Every man interested in the
success Of the progressive cause Is
hopeful that the vast majority OF
Democratic voters will see the
handwriting on the wall and take
advantage OF the first real oppor-
tunity to Dust the organization

Thirty out Of forly.0ne States
Give Favorable Consideration
to Laws Dealing with
Consumption.

Out of forty-one State Legisla-
lures in session during the season
of 1913, laws dealing with tuber-
culosis were enacted in thirty
States, while in thirty-four States
consideration was given to bills
dealing with the prevention of this
disease. This is summary OF the
legislative campaign for 1913, Is
sued by The National Association
for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis recently.
Appropriations to the amount OF
over 100000 have been set
aside for the treatment and pre-
vention of tuberculosis by the vari-
Gus State Legislatures in session
this year. Most of this money is
for the maintenance of State sana-
toria. There are at the present
time SO such institutions in 81 diff
ferent States, Connecticut, Massa-
chusetts and Pennsylvania each
having more than one sanatorium.
Delaware is the only State which
has made provision for a State
sanatorium for tuberculous negroes.
In addition to the amounts appro-
priated by the various State govern
ments, Congress will be obliged to
set aside nearly $1,000,0O0 for the
maintenance of the United States
Public Health, the Army and the
Navy sanatoria, and the tuberculo-
sis hospital of the District of Co
lumbia
Among the notable advances in
the legislative enactments of this
year, are the tuberculosis registra-
ton law of Colorado; laws provid-
ing for subsidies to local hospitals
in Minnesota and Wisconsin, an
act providing for the establishment
of county hospitals in Indiana, and
the establishment of State bureaus
for the prevention of tuberculosis
in Ohio and California A COM
plete analysis of the tuberculosis
legislation considered and enacted
in 1918, is being prepared by The
