MORE INDIANA SCANDALS

The hmclight on election frauds in
Indiana has been transferred from
Ierre Hautc to Indianapolis and seem
TO be showing no party favoritism. Al
though majority of the officials in
drctcd by the grand jury are Demo
Gratis, several Republicans are among
the number.
Perhaps the most important Of the
men indicted, at least from the stand
point of nationwide notorictv. is
Thomas Taggart, for many wears the
Democratic National committeeman
from Indiana and at one time chair
man of that body. While there is little
doubt that Taggart has at time coun-
sselled the commitment of election
frauds, unless some of his subordin-
ates turn states evidence, there is
littie likelihood of his conviction.
These uphcavals in municipal poll
ties are intermittent. First il is one
city and then another. Whenever the
load OF corruption becomes too heavy.
the people rise UP and wipe out the
gratters. A few are sent to the peni-
Tertiary, some take for the tall tim
Der, while others escape conviction
Matters then run along fairly well

become as bad as ever.

TO PREVENT BLINDNESS
IN INFANTS
State Board of Health Begins Free
Distribution of Preventive Agent.

1t is said that about one fourth of
all cases of blindness is due to ophth-
alma moratorium, an infectious dis
ease of the eyes of the newborn, and
that it costs the people of the United
States about 100000 to care for
those blind from this cause The total
economic loss is estimated to ap-
proximate one billion dollars annual
iy
Ophthalmia neonatorum is pre-
ventable disease and its prevention is
very simple matter.
The preventive treatment consists
of cleansing the eyes Of the infant
just after birth and then dropping two
drops of properly prepared one per
cent solution of silver nitrate into
each eye.
In order that this simple treatment
may be made readily available and
employed in every birth hereafter
occurring in Idaho. The State Board
of Health has recently developed a
very simple prophylactic package
which it hopes to place in the hands
of every physician and birth attend
ant in the state. These prophylactic
packages, consisting of two tubes of
one per cent solution of silver nitrate.
needles for perforating the end of
each tube when required for use, and
directions for employment of the pro-
phylactic agent, can be obtained free
upon application to the State Board
of Health.
The ophthalmia preventive treat
ment should be applied to every new
born babe. The disease, contrary to
to common notion, is not always the
result of infection with the germs of
an uncomfortable disease, it is very
often attributable to the presence of
other infected organisms such as
streptococuS, pneumococcus, Koch
Weeks bacillus, meningococcus,
staphylicoccus and the diptheria bac-
illus, and there is more likelihood of
these organisms being present than
there is of any gonococcus lurking
near.
Parents should insist upon the use
of this simple, but effective proven
tive of blindness in the case of every
birth hereafter occurring in their fam
lily. If universally employed it will
result in a marked reduction of
blindness in children and will save
the state many thousands of dollars.
Idaho is one of the few state states
supplying this prophylactic agent free,
although others are now preparing to
fall i'm line,

RECLAMATION PROGRESS
Government Has Accomplished Great
Wonders in IS Years.

(Memphis Commercial-AppeaL)
Thirteen years ago the government
inaugurated the reclamation move
ment on the present plan. 1t was an
experiment at first. Only a short
while after this the benefit of the rec
lamation service became so apparent
that the work Of the department ex-
banded and broad field was covered.
In the 10 years something more
than 100000 acres of land have been
reclaimed in % irrigation projects, in
10 states, furnishing homesteads to
q 900 families. This is what has been
accomplished. The department will
now do greater things. The plans
under way contemplate the reclaim
ing and watering of 100000 acres,
which will furnish homes for l000,-
900 families, or approximately 5,00O,-
600 people.
After the war Central Europe will
be land of ruins, ruined farms and
ruined homes. The tide of immigra-
ton will turn in this direction Peas
ants racked with the memories of
war, with their losses and with the
awful death toll, will seek new fields
and will pick up the tangled threads of
their yesterdays and will try to be-
gin life over again. TO such home
seekers the reclaimed lands of the
government will offer a future. The
department knows this, and will well
come the stranger when he knocks
at our gates.

But tetanus can be avoided. Most
every case is chargeable to neglect of
the necessary nrecautions especially
is this true of cases following wounds
which have been looked upon as triv-
ial.
All 4th of July wounds, no matter
how slight. should be attended by a
physician, as evident from the follow
ing necessary procedure: Without
exception all wounds should be laid
fully open under local, or preferably
general anesthesia, and ali foreign
material and necrotic or badly injured
tissue removed. After thoroughly
cleansing the wound Swab it out with
very strong solution of carbolic
acid and Immediately follow with
washing with 95 per cent alcohol to
prevent further action of the acid.
Then wash the wound with a l-lOOO
to a l-2OOO solution of bichloride of
mercury and pack it with gauze soak
ed in a saturated solution of salicylic
or boric acid, applying a large, wet
dressing of the same solution. The
wound must never be closed; healing
must be by graduation. Renew the
dressing and packing every day.
Now comes the most important part
of the treatment. AS soon as the
wound is dressed the patient must be
given an injection of 1900 units of
tetanus anitoXin, selecting the loose
tissue of the abdomen, the buttocks,
between the scapulae or similarly well
adapted part OF the body. Preferably
the injection should be given while
tn patient is i'll a recumbent position.
1t is Of the utmost Importance that
the antitoXin be given promptly. AT
ter symptoms Of tetanus appear it is
too late.
Among men who have not enough
brains with which to wad a gun, toy
pistols and blank cartridges seem to
be favorite vehicles of patriotic ex-
preston.
Entering eternity via the sky-rocket
route may be elevating but to us ii
appears highly undesirable
The toy cannon is more devastating
than the real thing.
