PRAISES ARMY'S FIGHT ON DIS
EASE.
Doctor Says Civil Authorities Can
Obtain Same Success if They
Wish.

Cedar Rapids, lathe death rate
of Cedar Rapids has been higher
than that of the armies of the United
States since the war began. DR.. Will
liam A. Evans, noted health special
list, declared in an address given here
and then he went on to say that the
military authorities have afforded an
example of sanitation and treatment
of public health that might we'll be
emulated by civil authorities. Doctor
Evans touched on the matter of in
f1uenza and the vast toll of deaths it
has taken in the country.
-Four hundred thousand deaths
of influenza and less than 10000
Americans killed in the war, is the
record of this country since the in
fluenza germ was brought to Boston
harbor in August, 1915" he said,
at is the fault of the people of the
United States. Public sentiment must
be crystalized and it must force the
accomplishment of public health
corrections"
Doctor Evans declared that every
community should have a public
health officer who would devote his
entire time in the interest of public
health. He spoke of the fly pest in
America and the toll Of life it had
taken. He called attention to the
fact that the city of Havana, Cuba is
flyless and declared that if the health
authorities of that city were able to
drive the fly from their midst other
cities certainly should be able to ac'
complish the same ends. He said
military rule in Havana had been
able to clean up the city and now the
civic authorities keep it clean.

the citizens. Yet these men are the
proponents of scheme of revolution
that would turn over to them and their
kind the control of our affairs.
"The embattled farmers" of Lexing-
ton fought in honorable warfare
against the foe of their kind and kin.
They represented the sentiment of
the united colonists of America. Had
they been mere handful of outlaws
Theirs was true act of revolution in
righteous cause.
At Centraha the attack upon the
marching men was wanton and unpro
voked. There was no thought of
menace to the organization from the
headquarters of which the shots were
fired. The men in uniform were
marching in eommemoration of vic
tory gained over the foreign foe. The
murderous brutality of the sniping
attack upon them was type of the
insidious spirit of sedtion that must
be fought and beaten if this country
is to remain safe and secure.
All honor to the men who fell at
Centralia, heroes in a service of man
kind. A monument to their memory
should be erected by the American
people.

A Corrective Panic.

Money up and stocks down. Such
was the situation yesterday in Wall
street, where selling movement took
place with such violence that at the
close of business 2,632.s35 shares of
stock had changed hands, the great
est days overturn in the market since
the sensational "peace report" disturb
ance of December 81, 1916. "Values"
were smashed on all sides. Call money.
under the extraordinary demand of
the "bulf' traders for more margins
to cover their holdings, rose to the
unprecedented level of 80 per cent.
This morning the market was steady.
with an upward tendency, in partial
recovery of yesterdays losses. The
short lived panic proves merely to
have been result of over-speculation
1t had no relation to the industrial
situation. The true values have not
been actually affected. Earning ca
pacities of listed corporations whose
securities are the pawns in the big
game of stock trading have not been

The Martyrs of Centralia.

Every man who has worn the uni
form of the United States during the
past two and a half years feels today
deep and bitter resentment against
the murderers of those four members
of the American Legion who were
slain on Armistice day at Centralia,
quarters of the Industrial Workers Of
the World. No other single act of
violence ever committed in this coun-
try in a state of peace has so stirred
the patriotism of the people, has SO
appealed to their loyalty, or SO
aroused their determination to fight
the radicals who are seeking to over
throw our institutions.
The four victims of the ambuscade
at Centralia have not fallen in vain.
They have sacrificed their lives to the
national cause just as surely as though
they had fallen in battle in the Ar
gonne. They are martyrs, whose blood
will be the seed Of stouter citizen
ship.
The utter ineapaeity of those who
are trying to undermine and de-
stroy the government is amply proved
by this tragedy. They have no powers
of reasoning. They are utterly be-
reft of the sense of responsibility
They "plotted" the attack at Centralia
without any thought of the conse-
quences. They utterly misjudged-if
they judged at all-the instant effect
of their murderous shots upon the
whole body of former service men in
the United States and the mass Of

giving prominence to its own inter.
ests in lamenting the death of Sena
tor Martin. He had been for years
one of the Districts best friends in
Congress. He had falniliariZed him
self with the Districts needs and come
into a rare good Judgment in the mat
tier of providing for them. His pride
II the National Capital was patriotic.
HIS appreciation. of the country had
led him to the feeling that the seat
of government should be supported
with Il liberality worthy of its dignity
and consequence And so in all ques-
tfons of local concern Washington had
loag relied upon his friendship and
his watch fu hess; and never in any
instance did he fail it. The com
munity will always cherish his mem
ory
In multters of national moment Mr..
Martin had earned and enjoyed con
sideration among the foremost of ma
tional legislators. His partisanship,
where paltisanship was the wear. was
always robust and reliable He stood
to his guns; on all questions of strictly
partisan ch aracter. On all other aues-
tions he br ought to bear Judgment
informed b.y feeling of genuine
Americanism He knew the country
and loved it, saw its mission and
strove to ad, 'ance it whenever occa-
sion presented itself.
He was a sol id rather than snowy
mana marked virtue in legislator.
He wrought in: committee, though
strong in debate lin the open cham ber,
too, when debate there came on. He
was among the h: udest of hard work
ers. He did not spare himself For
tunately for the puntry and for his
fame, he had the ,hysique to support
his industry. For .learly quarter of
century he gave of his best as
member of body whose duties when
we'll discharged are of the most ex-
acting, both physical ly and mentally.
And so this friend of the District
and this worthy son of the country
passes at time whtm the District
and the country stand greatly in need
of the best counsels and the most
helpful services. At the regular ses-
sion of Congress the districts rela-
tions to the national government will
be examined with respect to some re-
adjustments, while the country is en-
tering upon a new order which only
experience and high grade of abil-
ity can shape to the co,antry's ad-
vantage.
Immediately, of course--since po-
litical preferment is seldom waiting
game-there is discussion of the sue
cession. Mr.. Martin had only last
March entered upon a new? term-the
fifth, running. First will come an ap-
pointment by the governor, and then
an election by the people. The occa-
sion is important, and both the gov
ernor and the people Of the Old Do
minion should rise to it.

WELL-KN0WN ALASKA
WORKERS TO BE- RETIRED
AT THEIR OWN REQUEST

After thirty years active service,
much Of which was spent in Alaska
waters, Commodore E. P. Bertholf and
Captain c. A. McAllister, engineer in
tired on their own application. Both
will become officials of the American
Bureau of Shipping of New York, an
organization for the classification and
registration of ships in the American
merchant marine, which has it's Brit
ish counterpart in Lloyd's of London.
Efforts were made by the Shipping
Board to obtain their services for this
organization eighteen months ago, but
Secretary Daniels of the navy, to
which the coast guard had been trans
ferred, refused to release them during
the period of the war. The request
for their release at this time was in
dorsed by the American Bureau of
Shipping, the United States Shipping
Board and the secretary of the treas
ury and the secretary of commerce.
Commodore Bertholf and Captain
McAllister were largely instrumental
in the amalgamation of the revenue
cutter and life-saving services, into
what has become the coast guard.
Commodore Bertlhof was a member
of the international conference on

safety at sea during the war, and was
also chairman of the Anchorage board.
Commodore Bertholf first came to
Alaska in 1897, when he was placed in
command of an expedition sent out
from the United States revenue cutter
Bear at St. Michael to the relief Of
several hundred starving whalers
whose ships had been caught in the
Arctic ice.
Guided by W. T. Lopp, now chief of
the reindeer service, and accompanied
by DR.. S. J. Call and Lieutenant D. L..
Jarvis, both now dead, Commodore
Bertholf drove number of reindeer
from Cape Prince of Wales to Her
schell island, where the animals were
slaughtered for food. Commodore
Bertholf later spent eighteen months
in Siberia, where he purchased the
reindeer that formed the nucleus of
the present Alaskan herds.
