Quite a Reversal.

The political barometer has given
another significant indication. This
time 1t ID found in Minnesota, where
statewide primary election was held
q few days ago. The story Of the
election is an interesting one full Of
endorsement to Republicans. The
vote out there in 1912 was 1856 for
Roosevelt; 1o6,426 for Wilson, and
e4,324 for Taft.
In the recent statewide primary
more than $4,000 votes were cast,
which is ? remarkably large poll for
an election held only to nominate
state candidates; but 1t was most i'm
pressive IN its results. The Republi-
can vote on this occasion mounted
from 1894, cast at the regular cleo
ton OF 1912, to $4,000. While the
Democrats made hot race, their total
vote amounted to only $4,000. The
Progressive candidates in the entire
state ealy mustered strength OF

THEN
-
and


seventy-nine years ago today
the Liberty Bell tolled for the
last time. On that day 1t was
proclaiming the nations GRIEF
over the death Of Chief Justice
John Marshall, whose body was
being taken from Philadelphia
to Its final resting place in
Virginia. Suddenly, the tone Of
the Dell changed, became muf-
ned as with grief. The bell
ringer hurried to the tower Of
the State House. He found a
great crack In the side Of the
bell. In the circumstances
many protested to see a fitting
climax to one Of the most i'm
portant epochs in the nations
history. Fifty-nine years before
the bell had rung out the glad
tdings that the Declaration OF
Independence had been signed
and adopted-this day 1t for
ever became silent during the
funeral services Of CHIEF Jus
tice Marshall. the last Of the
signers Of the Declaration Of
independence and the last OF
George Washington's associates.
Once before the bell had
cracked. Made in England at
the order and expense OF the
Colony OF Pennsylvania, 1t was
brought to Philadelphia In 1853
where 1t was given its first test
for tone. The first blow Of the
clapper made a wide crack In
the bell. A Philadelphia firm
offered to recast It, and rather
than wait for its return from
England the Colonists turned it
over to them. The foundrymen
thought to increase the sweet
ness Of its tone by increasing
the proportion OF copper, but
they deadened the tone so that
It could hardly be heard. Again
the bell was recast and 1t prov
Ing successful this time 1t was
hung in the State House steeple
where for the following eighty-
two years Its tongue heraided
every important national event.

Boss Rule.

Commenting upon the recent relega-
tfon here by the Democratic state
machine OF George w. Bland as state
senator, the wheeling Intelligencer
says
1.-THE Democratic nomination made
in the Twelfth senatorial district last
week has the distinct hallmark of the
Watsen-Chilton ring. The convention
was as clearly in the hands of the
gang as was the state convention that
nominated Hodges for congressman
at-large. The selection of the Clarks-
burg lawyer, Ernest F. Randolph, over
Senator George w. Bland, the present
representative OF that district, was
not altogether q surprise, but 1t shows
that the ring Is still in the saddle and
doing business whenever its tentacles
can get good grip on the electorate"
After briefly rehearsing the reasons
for Senator BANDS involuntary re-
+tirement, namely, that he opposed the
election and the mandates of the
Democratic federal senator's, the In
telligencer continues;
"one cannot help but admire Sem
ator Bland's temerity in entering this
contest, knowing as he did he was en-
tering the lions mouth. He did bet
ter than was expected, being defeated
for the nomination by only nine votes.
Harrison county did It, and Harrison
county Democracy, as everyone knows,
is completely under the domination Of
the Consolidation Coal Company, the
Watson engine used for destroying its
enemies and rewarding its creatures,

in that district will, however, prevent

To Teach Good Heal.h.

The American Medical Association
has outlined a policy intended for the
betterment Of mankind that Of pub
lie education with view to- the con-
seryation of health rather than the
mere cure OF sickness. by this means
1t is hoped the ills Of humanity will
be lessened and life prolonged, thus
contributing directly to public we'll
being. 1t is apparent from this broad-
ened course Of service that the mem
bers Of the association do not regard
their profession as Of self-interest
only; they owe duty to the public
which they consider Of more import
ance than building up a competence.
The president Of the association made
this plain in his declaration that
once 1t was simply physicians duty
to his patients, but the field has
broadened and now the physician goes
to the people.
A policy that has for its purpose
keening the people we'll will be certain
to keep the physician busy, which is
better than curing them after they
are III. Medical science has made
remarkable progress during the last
half century, Preventable diseases
have been brought under control, san
itation has triumphed over the causes
that lead to human Affections, the
source Of malsdies has made It pos
sible to prevent rather than to COM
bat epidemics. From a health point
the world has been elevated to a
high plane, and, recognizing that
there is still much to do, the Ameri-
can Medical Association proposes to
do Its share.
While the people cannot prescribe
for themselves they can be educated
along lines that will tend to their
safety from affection, and in the pro-
motion Of this unselfish work the doc
tors deserve commentator.

HOG Cholera Pretention.

The assessors books in Jefferson
county indicate hog valuation Of
about $4,000. Competent local au-
thorities estimate that in recent years
the annual hog loss has been from
$4,000 to $4,000, due to cholera.
Other counties could show losses
equally heavy and DISASTROUS to the
swine breeding industry,
In order to protect the herd, espec-
tally in those sections where hog
cholera is again breaking out, no time
should be lost in securing hog cholera
serum and making the vaccinations.
The serum can be obtained from the
state commissioner of agriculture ut
Charleston. In most cases a local
veterinarian should be secured to ad-
minister the dose. but there is no

reason why the farmer should not do
this himself If he understands the
process. The main precaution should
be to prevent infection at the point
where the serum is injected. All in
struments must be thoroughly boiled
and the region Of injection carefully
disinfeeted: "
