vine show how he stands with
our neighbors:
From The Irvine Sun.
Hon. j. 9. Cantrill, Democrat
ic candidate for Congress from
this district, SPOKE here Monday.
The greater part of his speech
was devoted TO his attitude on
the Hobson Prohibition resolu-
ton. He endeavored to explain
to the voters why he is opposed
to this resolution. He said 81
am as good a temperance man as
any man who is for the Hobson
resolution
Some few of the Democrats in
the room looked as If they be-
lieved every word that Mr.. Can
trill said. II. j.. Leete acted as
chairman and introduced the
speaker. The speech was inter.
spersed with vigorous applause
by chairman Leete and Postmas-
ter Wilson.
1t is quite plain that Thomas is
ahead IN this county"
From the Tribune.
Congressman j. Campbell Can
trill spoke at the Court house
Monday beginning at 10 80 a. m.
in behalf of his candidacy for
Congress in this district. He
was introduced by Capt. H. L.
Leete, and was greeted by a
crowd which filled to court room
to overlooking. Mr.. Cantrill is
an entertainiSrrhlker and held
the attention of his auditors
througout his hour and halt
address.
His principal claim for re.nom-
ination at the hands of the Dem
ocrats is that he has on two for
mer occasions defeated his pres
ent opponent, Hon. Claude M.
Thomas, for Congress, and that
he has stood strictly by the Will
son administration in all things.
We believe, however, that some
of his contentious were ill.advis-
ed and that he mistook his hear
ers for uniformed backwOOds-
men who are not familiar with
the issues presented in the cam
paign. He renewed his charg.
es against Mr.. Thomas that the
latter had not given him active
support four years ago and that
Thomas had made a deal with
twenty-five saloon men in Par
is by which he received their
support in the primary and by
which he and the city council of
Paris granted them certain fav.
ors. The charges have been ef.
fectively disapproved by Mr..
Thomas to the satisfaction of
Democrats all over the district,
and it is a well.known fact that
every solitary saloon man in the
district, aud there are many,
was for Cantrill four years ago
and they are still for him be-
cause he is their friend. The
Congressman took advantage Of
mistaken view of the local sit.
nation here and sought to in
press these old refuted charges
on the Democrats of Estill,
doubtless thinking they were out
of range of the daily press, and
sprung them as new and undls-
puted propositions.
lie attempted to Justify his
vote against the Webb Kenyon
bid, a national measure which
would exclude the shipping of
/ liquor from "wet" into "dry"
territory, by stating that he had
supported the Davis bill which,
as we understand it, is only an
amendment to the Webb bill,
providing for certain penalties
for this ofl'ense. But that didn't
Justify his vote against the bill
/ itself in the eyes of his auditors,
/ who we believe will resent his
presumption of their ignorance"

Benjamin Franklin called attention to
the fact that colds were frequently con
tracted by one person III contact with
another suffering with cold. He said:
81 have long been satisfied from OBJ
servation that people often catch cold
one from another when shut up in
close rooms, coaches, and when sit
ting near together in conversation so
as to breathe in the others transpri-
ations."
Colds are not well understood, but
they are certainely caused by germs
that are transferred from one person
to another. In no other way can we
explain the fact that they run in cpl
denies. During a cold, and indeed at
all times, there are a great number
of germs growing in the air passages
and it has been very difficult to decide
which of these germs caused the cold.
1t seems certain, however, that the
pneumonia and influenza germs often

TRANSPORTA-
T|0N FACILITIES
AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
ISSUES CIRCULAR FROM ITS
TRAFFIC MANAGERS OFFICE
AT NEW YORK.

New York, Oct. S.-The American
Express company has addressed all
of its agents, outlining conditions
under which foreign business can be
handled. The rapidly changing con-
ditions governing ocean and foreign
transportation routes have created
misunderstanding concerning facili-
ties for handling foreign business.
The company announces that it is
prepared to accept and re-forward
all business destined to Great Brit
ain and Ireland, Norway, Sweden and
Denmark, Italy, Switzerland, Greece,
Spain, Portugal; Central America,
West Indies, Australia, South Afri-
ca, China and Japan, Philippine
Islands, and India also to the Meth
erands, subject to the supervisory
method which has been adopted by
the Netherlands government. All
shipments arriving in that country
are delivered by the steamship COM
pany into the custody of the govern
ment, and the latter releases for de-
livery to the ultimate consignees only
after determining that no contraband
of war is included and that the
Netherlands route Is not being used
for transporting goods of any kind to
any belligerent countries or to any
other than Holland destinations.
The company states furthermore
that it is prepared to accept ship
ments carrying collections of invoice
value for shippers account provided
the transportation and insurance
charges are fully prepaid and in
cluded in such c. o. DIS.
Special attention is drawn to the
Importance OF shippers considering
the advisabilty of placing war risk
insurance, the premiums for which
range from one-half of one per cent
upwards, in some cases as high as
10 per cent. The principal govern
ing factors in such premiums are
the points of destination and nation
ality of carrying vessels. The low
est war risk rates apply on ship
ments to Great Britain when carried
on steamers flying the American
flag.
At the present time the company
does not consider it practicable to
accept or forward shipments destin-
ed to points in Belgium, Germany,
Austria-Iungary, Russia, Servia, Mon
tenegro, Roumania, Bulgaria, Albania,
Turkey, Persia, Arabia, or Egypt.

cause colds and that the diptheria
germ may do so. 1t is thought that
the pneumo-baccillus, which some
times causes pneumonia, is the most
common cause of colds.
To avoid contracting a cold a per-
son should be careful not to borrow
personal articles of one suffering
from cold. He should not handle the
soiled handkerchiefs or stand near
any one who is coughing, without turn
ing away from him. One suffering from
a cold should not breathe in another's
face or borrow another persons
handkerchief, neither should a well
person sleep with one suffering from
severe cold One suffering from a
severe cold should be careful and see
that their hands are washed frequent
ly, with soap and water, and avoid 60
ing into crowded rooms as much as
possible. One person in a crowded ho-
tel lobby or other large assembly room
can spread a cold very rapidly, es-
pecially if these quarters are poorly
ventilated. In fact, the most suita-
BILE place to contract a cold, is in an
assembly room that is poorly heated
and ventilated, where a large crowd
has congregated.
Picture Shows and Foul Air.
Possibly the principal factor in
causing epidemics of colds, La Grippe,
sore throat and pneumonia, is the
present day moving picture shows,
where it seems that the principal OBJ
ject is to obtain the maximum seating
capacity in as small space as pos
sible, and to pay no attention to the |
ventilation in the slightest degree.
1t is well to avoid one of these |
places of amusements where the odor |
of desinfectants, deodorants, or loud |
smelling perfume is noticeable, as |
this is confession on the part OF the |
that their place is poorly |
ventilated and it is necessary to use
these means to overcome the lack OF
and the amount of foul
air resulting therefrom. 1t is estimated

Cotton to italy.

Fort Worth, Oct S.-tWith practi-
cally every Atlantic port in Europe
closed to the cotton trade, attention
of cotton merchants is being directed
to opening business with Medlter-
ranean ports, and now considerable
cotton is being booked for export
through Galveston to Genoa, Italy,
and other Italian ports.
The first shipment of cotton to
Genoa will leave Fort Worth in the
next day or two. The movement of
export cotton is light just now but
traffic officials of the various rail-
road lines are expecting to increase
in this line of traffic within the
next few days.

What Would You Do7

There are many times when one
man questions another's actions and
motives. Men act differently under
different circumstances. The ques-
tion is, what would you do right now
If you had severe cold? Could you
do better than to take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy? 1t is highly recon-
mended by people who have used it
for years and know its value. Mrs.
o. E. Sargent, Peru, Ind, says.
"Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
worth its weight in gold and | take
pleasure in recommending it." For

New York, Oct. S.-For the first
time since war started in Europe, a
direct shipment of cotton was made
from this country to France yester-
day. 1t is supposed most of the
cotton reaching France has gone
through Great Britain, but yesterdays
consignment was to Havre. The
total exports of cotton was 29,9S2
bales yesterday. This included 3,4O5
bales to France, 5,47S bales to Great
Britain and 1856 bales went to o,her
European countries. More than 12,-
600 bales went to Japan and ap-
proximately 1850 bales to Mexico.
This represents a gain compared
with recent weeks.

that the air in one of these theatres
will pass through the lungs of all the
people present every six minutes. 1t
is unfortunate that too frequently it
is the case that the health and COM
fort of the patrons is only a secon-
Diary consideration. While it is true
municipalities, by regulations, have
to slight extent enforced measures
for fire protection, and safety exits,
yet they have overlooked very i'm
portant regulation in failing to pro-
vide for proper ventilation, heating,
and preventing the overcrowding in
these amusement halls. The munich
palities should see that these halls
are properly ventilated and so kept
that the seating capacity be such as
to allow for each occupant the prop
er cubic feet of breathing space. They
should prevent the selling of more tick
cts than they have seating capacity,
and prohibit the overcrowding of en-
frances, aisles and exits. In doing this
they will prevent epidemics of colds
and La Grippe, many cases of pneu-
monia and tuberculosis. By giving
these amusement places the atten-
tion they should be given, they can
prevent many cases of serious eye
troubles and injury to the health of
the patrons of these institutions.

Just six days after the defeat OF the
County Road plan an organization was
effected in that township 10 promote
road building not only in Fairfield, but
in the County OF Lenawee. A resolu-
ton was adopted at the meeting TO
form a permanent league TO be known
as the Weston Improvement Club.
Their officers were elected and this is
now one of the permanent Good Road
organizations in that county.
out Of fifty-four counties that have
adopted the system, not a county has
ever gone back. In st. Joseph County
where the commissioners provoked the
electors of the county by their action
in spending the first years appropria-
ton in the purchase of machinery
there was an attempt to revoke the
County System. Petitions were filed
with the Board OF Supervisors asking
them to again submit the question.
The Board of Supervisors complied
with the request of the petitioners
and this county voted for the second
time TO repeal the system. After a
well organized campaign on both sides,
the electors of ST. Joseph County de-
cided by a large majority to stay in
the System.
We have one other instance of this
kind where a county undertook to go
out, but the voters repudiated ii at the
polls.
There are many bright spots in the
campaign just closed. Our association
was somewhat crippled for lack of
means and were not able TO keep as

submitted a proposition TO bond the

people in the sand, cultivating as they
have, poor farms, learned a long time
ago that it was 20 their advantage to
build roads so long as the farmers of
southern Michigan were willing to
contribute for half of the cost.
The rich old county of Lenawee
failed TO carry the proposition owing
very largely to the campaign conduct
ed by George Horton against it, Mr..
Horton, one of the largest land owners
in the county, and one of the largest
tax payers seemed content TO remain

been honored by the state in many
ways and yet in his old age he takes
more pleasure i'm looking backward
than ahead. Blessed is the youth of
old age.

that Fairfield, the home township, of
