WAR AGAINST DUST
URGED BY JOURNAL
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

New York, March 5.-War against
dust is urged in an article in the April
issue of the Medical Council, which
puts forward the theory that new di-
seases attacking man in pandenies,
like grip, are due to the so -ca1led COS
mic dust.
This cosmic dust Is commonly sup
posed to come from the stars but the
suggestion is made that II is nothing
but common terrestrial dust carried
high by the heat of the tropics or by
volcanoes and whirlwinds. The thou
sands Of tons of such dust fall yearly
on the earth and IL is highly charged
with living organisms.
I'VE are coming more and more to
realize" says the article, the role of
rust in the theology and transmission
Of disease: but We have studied the
problem in its local phases not in its
con1osgra phical relations.
This latter study impresses US as
important and we advance the theory
that organized charged dust carries
thousands of miles from its original
terrestrial source may readily cause
epidemic OF disease.
Sanitation must declare war against
the kingdom OF dust"

A Florida girl, a native of Bagdad
and a. great granddaughter of DR.. John
Gorrie has been chosen to unveI the
statue of the famous Floridian. at the
formal presentation ceremonies in
Washington. on April so. A dispatch
from Washington says:
~ The commission charged with the
duty of presenting the Gorrie statue to
the nation, the statue having been au-
thorized by the state of Florida at a
cost of $4,000, agreed upon April 80
as the time at which the formal pre-
sentation exercises shall take place.
Miss Stewart, of Bagdad. Fla, a
great granddaughter of Dr. Gorrie has
been chosen to unveil the statue. All
the living relatives of DIR. Gorrie reside
in Santa Rosa county.
In the last few years Florida. more
than any other state has been adver-
tised through just such acts as this.
The statue of Gorrie in the Hall of
Fame is not put there for the purpose
OF advertising Florida. But it does,
nevertheless. show to the world that
Florida is not behind other states in

1t was a Pensacolian who introduced

of DIR. Gorrie's statue in the Hall of

When one of the greatest battleships
in the world was named after the state
OF Florida, Pensacola had the distinc-

How ANY Woman Can
Remove Fuzzy Growth
(The Modern Beauty

Many beauty shops use a delatone
paste for removing hair from the face,
neck or arms. as it is more satisfactory
in every way than the electric needle.
Enough of the powdered delatone and
water is mixed into a paste, and spread
on the hairy surface for minutes, then
removed, and with it comes every bit OF
hair. After the skin is washed it will
be firm and free from blemish. To in
sure best results. buy the delatone from
your druggist in an original package.

BULLMOOSE" NERVE"
Roosevelt Would Have Voters
Forget His Tariff
Record.
His Policy Today, In Advocating a
Commission to Deal With tho
Subject, Plainly Seen to Be
Selfish One.

Mr.. Roosevelt still has his nerve
on the subject, he is talking tariff bold
ly. and lambasting both the Repub-
leans and the Democrats for their
latest tariff legislation.
He said at Hartford:
You are indignant about the pres
ent tariff. You believe IT represents
an improper theory OF tariff making
and moreover the application OF i'm
proper methods in the actual construc-
ton OF the tariff by congress We
Progressives agree with you. But we
ask you to remember that 1t was the
men who pushed through the Payne
Aldrich tariff who more than any 9TH
ers are responsible for the revulsion
OF feeling which resulted In the enact
ment of the present tariff"
But not word about the difficulties
the Republicans encountered in their
revision and who had created them.
Not n word about the influences that
prevailed to keep tariff revision In
allegiance between 1901 and 1909. Not
word about how pat and important
Mr.. McKinley's last words at Buffalo
had made the subject. and how easy 1t
would have been at that time to write
those words into law.
Mr.. Roosevelt's silence simply en-
phasizes all those points. The story
is common knowledge
But what is Mr. Roosevelt's propo-
sition now? Practically. to take the
tariff out OF the hands OF congress-
which cannot be done-and give 1t in
20 the hands OF n so-called tariff com
mission.
This, II It could be done, would leave
Mr Roosevelt in case OF his return to
the White House with full time to
press upon congress and the country
his policies about the trusts He would
not be called upon to give any time
TO the tariff, either in the way OF rec
ommending to congress. or following
the subject elsewhere.
Mr.. Roosevelt likes the trust ques-
ton best OF all. and probably because
George w. Perkins does. Mr.. Perkins
Is not an authority on the tariff. but
is on big business. He has had his
training In that field, knows a good
deal about it, has some pronounced
opinions about what the government
should do, and has impressed Mr.
Roosevelt deeply with them. So that
tariff revision might not fare much
better under -four years more OF
Theodore" than under the seven and
half years when he occupied the
presidency
The hope OF tariff revision on con-
serative protection lines, with the
value of protection as a national policy
confessed, does not lie In bull moosery
or its chief.

Democratic Campaign BIunder.

Among the great issues put forward
by the Democrats in Maine is Cannon
ism. and another Is the tariff on sugar.
1t is said that these Issues were i'm.
ported direct from Washington and
were manufactured in the national
Democratic committee headquarters
The Republicans have often charged
the Democrats with holding on TO old
threadbare issues that have served
their purpose and been forgotten. This
report from Maine would appear to
Justify the Republican charge and
lead one to believe that the Demo
cratic managers do not know how to
take hold of new issues or defend
them after they have been made by

The Industrial Commission.

The federal industrial commission

the five days that 1t listened to repre-

practically every view point, from So
cialism at one extreme to capitalism
at the other. We hope 1t will be able
to sift out from the mass something
Of enlightening value.
Apart from the conclusions these
gentlemen may reach when their tour
OF the country is ended. apart from
any specific recommendation they
may make, the inquiry itself is serv-
Ing a useful purpose in It's reflection
OF the thought and temper OF the time.
The report OF the commission In its
bare recording OF the opinions and
facts confded to It should be an In
structive document for all who seem
to have more than an academic view
point on modern life. Our fear is that
too few people will read It, and that
