TAYLOR WOULD LIKE FRAUD
PROBE ENDED-NoTHIN DOM
DR.. Howard S. Taylor, Hearst
Harrison member of the Board of
Election Commissioners, yesterday
asked County Judge Owens, also
rst-Harrisonite, to end the probe
into alleged election frauds now be-
ing made by the commissioners.
Judge Owens refused to end the
investigation now after all Commits
sioner Czarnech had brought out.
. Czarnecd is the only one of the
board who has made an effort to
bring out any evidence of fraud. He
has prepared list of the precincts
wherein more votes were cast than
the poll books showed were voted on
election day.
Taylor seems to have undertaken
the role of counsel for the defense
during the present investigation. He
has bent all his energy to bringing
out answers from witnesses that
would show there had been no fraud.
Commissioner Kellerman and At
torney Mitchell of the board are also
opposed to continuing the investiga-
ton.

second Group of cures contains over a
hundred different kinds of patent"
devices. any of which may be purchas-
ed at q drug store. Usually the con-
sumptive is charged from 81 to SIS for
these and the institute cures when
he could make them up himself in ex-
actly the same form for from one to five
cents.
The third group of cures includes
home made remedies, which certain
self deluded individuals believe will
cure tuberculosis. Among them are
such things as onions. lemons. coal
smoke, pigs blood, alcohol, dog oil,
teas of various kinds and a variety of
diets, including goats meat, clabbered
milk and a score of other articles.
These are not usually advertised for
profit, but are usually given publicity
in various ways.
The consumptive is the most hopeful
individual in existence when the ques-
ton of a cure is suggested. The Ma

FAKE CONSUMPTION

Within the last five years, no less
than 500 fraudulent ''cures''f for consump-
ton have been tried upon thousands of
victims in the United States, and the
exploiters of these nostrums have reap
ed a clear profit of not less than $780,
600, 900. This is an estimate made by
the National Association for the study
and prevention --of tuberculosis in a
bulletin issued today.
The National Association estimates
that not less than $40. 600, 900 is inves.
ted in the business of manufacturing
and exploiting fake cures for tubercu-
losis, and that the annual: income from
these concerns and individuals is $751;
600, 900. About one third of this
amount is spent for advertising, leav-
ing a profit of $40. 900, 900 year, which
is blood money taken from ignorant
consumptives.
Three kinds of consumption cure
frauds are distinguished by the associa-
ton, the first being the INSTITUTE

pensary is established and the willy

The irate husband of the woman,
mother of W. young children, went
cunning for Hart but was disarmed by
his friends. Hart was arrested and
placed in Jail and on account of the ex-
posure of his shameful conduct, has
resigned his state position. He was
running a drug store at Ryder, where
he had resided since moving from

amazing that so many are still alive,

were little more than boys when thew

1t is imposs ible not to envy these
rugged old men. The memory is theirs
alone; reading is in vain: no one who
was not there can know what emotions
such a field as Gettysburg stirs in the
soul. Perhaps even these cannot re-

famous captains that a field of battle
is so terrible a thing that it transcends
the power of mar to grasp it. The
mind becomes little more than a blank

Fewer Strong Men Found Among Recruits Of Today

DECRUITS in the army are deterior-
N ating in physical standards since
the days of the Civil war, according
to Captain Harold w. Jones and 9TH
er officers of the army medical corps
During recent investigation meas
urements of 500 recruits were examin-
ed, and it was found that the per-
centage Of strong men enlisted Is by
far the lowest at the present day, only
80 per cent. as against 81 per cent.
in 1875.
The men considered weak at the
present time are 43 per cent. as
against 10 per cent. in 1875. At
tention is called to the fact that the
percentage Of foreign-born recruits
has fallen from more than so per cent.
to about nine per cent. 1t ia suggest
ed that many Of the recruits obtained
years ago were hardy German and
Irish emigrants Of stocky build,
which may account for the great diff
ference in the percentage of strong
men.
