Amouc the sensible declara tions made were these' two: That less ItnmiKrailon Is needed and more and better laws for the protection and preservation of the health of the peo ple would inorssss the population of the country and Its cities and towns as rapidly as needed, that farmers are the hsaltblest class of citizens and those thntdeal in liquors the sickliest and least robust. Notable addresses were made hy dir- tlnjtulsbed members of the Congress on live Issues. Speaking of mind - weakness Dr. Grossman said: •'If alcoholism were the cau»e of mental disease, we would be Imbeciles today, for our anerstors drank exces slvely and took big ‘night caps.’ And all the Germans would be Imbeciles, whereat they are a nation of strong minded artisans and scientists.” In temperance was a disease and would ooour in families sutrerinK from mental weaknesses; but until it hail been proved that It was a cause It should not be classed as such. Dr. J. K. Hurley of the Indiana board of health presented a drearf pi'-- lure of farm hygiene. He told the del egates that the farmer w»» in ih«* “pat ent medicine stage.’’ The life of farm ers thoul I ho f i nil :«> to :.u per cent longer, he said, most of the Ills which they suffered being «e|r-lmposed. •They overwork the fiying pan on the farm, pickl -s being used t<> w hei the appetite, and cram the vi< dm* full of over-fermented and InsnlHciently baked bread and too mueh smoked, pickled sr.d salted ham," added tne •peeker. with hleebMuud New Eagland man- u facta refs oemgi out with the deolers- tlon that a Demoeratio victory would be followed by “appalling" results.

That two million dollar company of Atlanta capitalists recently chartered In Delaware tu manufacture Ice In Sooth Carol IMS has made an early be ginning InTreezing out competition. The Columbia Ice and Fuel Company, which has for quite a number of years warmed la Winter and cooled In Sum mer the people of the capital, has bar gained its plant and good will to the ceming monopolists. Other concerns of the same sort will follow suit.
