One hundred and five thousand
miles in two years is the actual rec
ord made by Cadillac used in the
service OF the police department OF
Birmingham. Ala. This patrol is In
service day and night and is obliged TO
make its runs In all conditions OF
weather and over all kinds of roads.
In spite OF the hard wear 1t has re-
ceived, and the extra weight it carries
the car is apparently good for many
more thousands OF miles.
The patrol wagon was built on q
standard Cadillac chassis with a body,
built In Birmingham, which weighs
700 pounds more than the ordinary
body of . fiye-passenger Cadillac.
Frequently the car carries from IL to
10 passengers In addition to this extra
weight.

Fuller has compiled. He considered
them very valuable, he said, and COM
piimented the local physician on his
report.
"Keokuk, Fort Madison. Burlington,
Davenport, Dubuque, all river towns
have high death rate from the dis
ease because they are old towns Their
buildings are not built to help fight
the disease. I believe this Is the rea-
son for the high death rate in old
towns. The death rate among your
Icolored population is explained easily.
The race is suffering from diseases
Eof generations back. and their pow
lers OF resistance are light. The
Anglo Saxon people have been fight
Ing diseases for centuries. and their
powers OF resistance have naturally
become well developed. This resisting
power has not been develop In the
negro And then too, their housing
conditions are not OF the best.
Resistance is Great.
An interesting feature of the pow
ier of resistance is shown In the He
brew race. They. possibly have been
fighting the disease since the days OF
Moses. The result is that we seldom
have death from tuberculosis
amongst them"
Dr. Kepford has installed his ex-
Ihibit in the Hotel Iowa In one of the
show rooms fronting on Main street.
The committee Of which Dr. Fuller is
chairman, win put up model sanitary
bed rooms, and their opposite to show
the differences. The Visiting Nurse

Kepford said We have injected the
the gioson into our blood for genera
tons until We are able to resist the
disease. When we correct our con-
ditions, generally, We viii find that
We have gone a long ways toward de-
pressing the death curve from tuber-
eulosis in our statistical charts,
Figures Show Victory.
DR.. Kepford has some figures at his
tongues end that are both startling
and eneoura ging. Since the discov-
cry Of the tubercuiar baccilli in 1882.
the death rate has been decreased 81
Per cent. And IN the last ten years
in Iowa, the decrease has been some
thing Ike 35 per cent. DR.. Kepford
admits that when he started lecturing
and when physicians began to read up
on the subject, and people began to
be interested, that he expected to see
the death curve mount high on the
chart Instead the curve has been
depressed, and the reason is the cam
ralgn OF education, to which the peo-
.Rle hare heartily joined.
DR. Kepford believes that the time
lis near when tuberculosis can be
handled. and when we VIII be able to
resist the disease to much the same
extent that we are now abe to check
Eother diseases.

ton The conference yesterday after
noon was preliminary, and only con-
sidered the possible means and ways
for the establishment anc mainten-
iance Of the proposed structure. The
final decision In the matter may be
reached this week. during the tuber-
tculosis exhibit which opens at the
Hotel Iowa tomorrow.
That there is need for building OF
this sort DR.. Kepford pointed out
yesterday afternoon At present there
is no place in which to isolate and
treat the poor people who have tuber-
cufosis in advanced stages Oakdals

laprly. There must be some provision
made to care for such cases locally.
and it Is to this end that hospital
is being considered The last legisla-
ture by an act paved the ~ay for the
establishment of such an institution.
The tuberculosis exhibit is hoped to
arouse public sentiment to the need
for the building.
In rural districts the problem is rot

Making Up Equalization
 Boards.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, August 7.-The Arkansas Tax Commission is sending to the members of the Boards of Equalization over the state, urging the members who do not intend to serve this year to resign at once in order that their successors be appoint ed and qualify in time to serve in September when the work be- gins. The commission also calls the attention of the equal. ization boards to existing con- ditiors in some counties, and asks that all assessments be placed at 50 per cent.
 Special attnetion is called to the assessment of merchandise, manufacturing plants, moneys and credits. The commission says that the average stock of merchandise carried for the year must be assessed, with Q deduction for the amount al- lowed on the goods. In assessing notes, not the face, but the ac- tual value must be taken, and the amount the owner owes on the notes may be deducted be- fore the 50 per cent valuation is determined. The boards are also requested to assess i'm provements made during the year, and do as much as possi- ble to equalize assessments on real estate.

State Farm Has Good Crop. Special to Independent.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Aug. 7.-Com- missioner Bradsher of the State Penitentiary returned Friday from the State Farm, where he has been inspecting the crop, and with the other commissioners will start out for different parts of the state 10 inspect sites offered for the farm for white convicts. The commissioners have so far been unable to secure suitable loca- tion, but have yet a number of sites to look over. Commission CT Bradsher says the cotton crop will be the best ever raised on the farm, which is remark able statement with the crops in other sections so poor. The crop at the State Farm was not so badly damaged by the dry weather for there were sufficient hands with which to work it constantly, thus conserving the moisture. Commissioner Brad- sher states there is some boil weevil at the farm, but so far the insect has done little dam- age.
 The commissioners estimate the corn crop on the farm to average 60 bushels to the acre, which will net the state quite a sum, with corn the price it is certain to be this winter. The commissioners also expect to

PUBLIC DINNER A NUISANCE?
New York Newspaper Says 1t Is, Both
on Account Of Poor Food and
Poor Speakers.

1t has long been the agreeable habit
of friendly organizations, from the
Sons of St. Patrick to the New Eng
and others, to give occasional dinners
at which they may refresh their splr-
its with the familiar dialect which is
grateful in the ears long unused to it,
and by reminding each other of what
good place the old home was, and
is, remarks the New York Evening
Sun. But the old custom has long
since become bore beyond descrlp-
ton because of the inordinate atten-
ton required of the diners to long
array of speakers, none of whom has
| anything in particular to say, and at
| the same time because of the very
| Indifferent quality of the dinner pro-
| vided 1t is no doubt true that the
| great majority of persons who go to
these dinners do not know or care
what they eat, and therefore gobble
the usually very Indifferent food set
before them and wait, helplessly, for

| ence is much to blame for the general
| stodginess It is encouraging, OF
| course, to observe that the disgust
with such Stiffness as this has finally
resulted in an explosion which would
do away entirely with the public din
ner. The private dinner. OF course
chosen carefully and served to a
small and congenial company, Is one
of the most honorable and sacred So
| cial rites in the civilized world; men
and women will always stand up te
defend and maintain it. But the
