The report of the County Commis sioners published in this issue shows an item which to our mind had better been submitted to the courts before payment. We refer to the claim of J. M. Richardson for mule ruined $125. It is a bad precedent to pay such claims uncontested, unless the Commissioners admit that the cause of damage to the mule was the result of their negleet. If some mischievous person s removes a plank from a bridge. and a horse is in jured, the commissioners should not be held liable. but if a bridge is neglected that is a different matter. In our opin ion it is safer to compel the parties to prove their claims and to show the liability of the county, before the com missioners approve and pay such ( laims. the money for which comes from the taxpayers. Our greatest objection to allowing this class of claims without a contest, is. it leavesiroom for reckless charges to be made, and it is not t-king the proper precaution to protect the taxpayer. We have no doubt :hat Mi-. Richardson's mule was ruined, hut how came it to be ruined the pablic who are called upou to pay have had no opportunity of knowing. If the mule was hurt by the reckless driving of a wagoner. or if a plank had been removed, or there was no neglect on the part of the authoritis., the county should not be matle to pay. These matters should be forced to go to a jury and it will keep the county from being flooded with claims. Seven Years in Bed. -Will wonders ever cease':" inquire the friends of Mrs. L.

SENERAL STERNOURO TALKS OFTHE ARMY Health of Troops Is Reported Unusually Good. DEATH RATE IN CHINA As a Result of American Occupation In Cuba Nearly Every City and Town Has Had Its Sanitary ConditIons Em proved. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-Surgeon Gen eral Sternburg's annual report to the secretary of war says the health in the army was unusually good during the cal endar year 1900. The admission race to hospitals for all causes in the army, volunteers and regulars, with a mean strength of 100,389, was 2314.81 per thousand of strength, compared with 2178.06 in the previous year, but dur ing the year 1899 only 39,280 men of a total of 105,546 were serving in the Philippines, while in the past year 66, 862 of the total of 100,88~9 were thus serving. In the Philippine islands, with a mean strength of 66,882, the admission rate was 2621. 96, as compared with 2395.52 in the previous year, this increase being mainly due to disease among the volun teers, the ratio for which rose from 1859.21 to 2761.79. Tne regulars on the other hand showed a marked decrease in the ratio cf admission for disease, which fell from 3454. 10 to 2197.73. Two-thirds of the admission for dis ease were caused by malarial fevers and diarrhoeal diseases. The deaths from all causes amounted to 28.75 per 1,000 of strength, as compared with 50.58 in the previous year. Disease caused 20.26 deaths, the principal cause being dysen tery, which, with other intestinal dis eases, gave a ratio of 9.98. The rate from injury amounted to 8.49. The death rate in China was 47.78 per 1,000 of strength, 23.62 from disease and 24.14 from injury. From the close of the calendar year 1900 to the latest reports the health of the troops in the Philippines was stead ily improved. The health of the troops in Cuba dur ing the year was excellent. As a result of American occupation nearly every city and town has had its sanitary con ditions improved. Speaking of special diseases General Stenberg says: "The steady decrease of late years in the admissions for alcoholism among the men of the regular army is a matter for congratulation. Military officers may be said to be unanimous in their opinion that this may be the result of the establishment of the post exchange or canteen at military posts. There is less drunkenness among the troops in active service than in a command be ing on garrison duty in times of peace is signature is on every 3ox of the genuino taxative Bromo-Quimine Tablets so remedy that ca:-es a -cold in one day Al Notice.
