There is no doubt about hydro phobia becoming more common ir this State as the yearsgo by. There whs a time whpn a on"e of hydrophobia was a rare thing, out now ll is a very common thing. Tnere is an unfortunate tendency on the part of some to depreciate t le importanco of rabies and hydrophobia on account of their runty, while others have been led by the fi equent mistakes in diagnosis to do iv the existence of these affections altogether. But tlmre is nodoul t of its existence, and it kills more people than one unacquainted wi h the statistics would in agino. The JvHirnal of The American Medical Association says "it is re: ported that epidemic rabies exists at I present in one or more states >f the [Union, and there are probab'y few I states that have not a few cines of this disease among dogs at all times while instances of human infection are not unknown in any section. In this resect the United States compares unfavorably with Europe. The total annual mortality from hydrophobia in this country is from 10(1 to 300. In England the muzzling order has been followed by a complete disappearance." Dr. Hart, an expert on such matters, says "the disease among dog* is increasing. In and about Wash ington its frequency during the last ten months has been alarming; in 1907 a positive diagnosis of rabieswas made in 44 cases, and of these 33 were found in the District of Columbia or its immediate neighborhood. These 33 animals bit 10 people, 40 dogs, 2 horses and 2 cows. Nor is the disease less common in other parts of the country; Dr. Hart well observes that the preventive measures at present being taken are altogether inadequate, and urges that stringent measures should be taken to stamp out the awful disease. All dogs should be muzzled and those found running at large, unmuzzled should be killed. This is what was done in England, and the disease has completely disappeared. The life of one person is worth thousands of dogs. The Mayor of Greenville, where some twelve or more persons were bitten by mad dogs in a week, h<?s issued a proclamation requiring all dogs running at large to be muzzled. He gave'the police orders to kill all dogs found on the streets without a muzzles regardless of their value or their ownership, and in less than three days iwutf (inn Ininrli-oil ilnrrc limio luion w t VI vuv Iiuimi v VI I Kl > V UV.L II killed. If all the cities and towns throughout the country would follow the good example of (ireenville hydrophobia would soon be a thing of the past. Think iuoi'c of liryan. The Lincoln, Neb., Journal, 8 Republican paper, says: "It ha* been informally agreed among th( people here that Lincoln is to bt polite and non-partisan this year When democrats from outside cam* . to Lincoln in 188(> and again in 19<)< they found the town plastered wit! McKinley pictures. It was so hu miliating to Mr. Rryan that he pre ferred to go away to see the leaden of his party rather than have then come here to see him. Now a gen eral feeling of tolerance and goo< . nature is in the air, and when the de mocratic statesmen come they wi] be received with toleration. A par of the change will be due to busi : uessjconditions, bnt most of it come from the reaction from the extrem partisanship that prevailed her eight and twelve years ago/' Thi indicates that the Republicans o Nebraska are more friendly to Mr - Bryan than they were in 1896 an 1900, verifies to some extent Sens tor Tillman's prediction that thoui ands of Repudlicans throughou the West will vote for Bryan i the coming election. The Journi says part of < he change will be du to business conditions," and thes same business conditions will mak many a vote for the Democrati candidate, which we believe wi land him in the White House a _ Washington. Hurrah for Bryar Will Nominate Johnson. The Washington Post says: "Gov ernor John A. Johnson of Minnesc ta will be nominated before th Denver convention to head th m Democratic ticket by Represents tive Winfield S. Hammond of th Second congressional district of Mir nessota, the man who defeated fo congress former Representativ ' James T McCleary, one of theVepul lican leaders during his service i the house. Hammond nominate Governor Johnson for both h terms as governor of Minnesota, an i. both times Johnson swept a normal) J V A B V ^ republican state into the democratic . column. 'Unquestionably,' he said j '.Johnson will carry a large propor, sion of the southern ttates in the convention.' " Congressman Hammond is the same man who says J "Gen. Miles would make an ideal , running mate for the Minnesota Governor." It will I>e seen by the ' above that they are very close poli. tical and personal friends, and it is likely that they agree on the Miles proposition. The World Shown I'p. Bryan's just characterization of , newspaper servility to the trusts seems to have bitterly rankled in the breasts of some of the editorial writers of the New York World, and as a consequence from that day to this the World lost no opportunity to launch a blow at William Jennings Bryan. "In the meantime," says Tobacco, a journal published in the interest of the tobacco trade, the Nebraska statesman has paid little attention to the World's continuous attacks, in spite of the fact that the World itself has during the past three months furnished the 1 most complete and ample justification for the criticism at which it , took offense, by its attitude of servile submission to the tobacco trust ?the trust which Theodore Roose1 velt long ago characterized as the ; worst of all the trusts. "The suit of the United States government against the tobacco has been on trial nine long weeks, the hearings were held within a ' litlte more than a stone's throw of the World oflice, and many of the disclosures have been of a most picturesque and sensational character. Under ordinary circumstances, that ! s, had it been a bank, or a minor I insurance company that had been placed on trial by the government? the revelation that came out during the trial would have been accorded mnnv r>nlnmnu r*f cttann in thn WI iiiMXJ WI W* up(4W 111 WIIV T f V/I IVI from day to day. "Hut it was the tobacco trust that was on trail, and so the World found it convenient to ignore the proceedings, except upon 3ueh rare occasions as something could be twisted and contorted in such a way as to appear favorable to the tobacco trust. On those rare occasions, the World would accord space to the trial of the tobacco trust, but truth to tell, such matter as was allowed to line its way into print in the World at those times, read as though it had been carefully edited and amended at tobacco trust headquarters, before being put into print. "It would be useless for the World to assert that reports progress in of the trial of the tobacco trust were crowded out by more important news, for the simple fact that on many days while the trial was it New York, there was an actual dearth of news, and the World was compelled to pad out trivial and commonplace occurrences to great length in order to lill its columns. "Hut no sooner is the taking of testimony in the ease temporarily at an end in New York than the World find that it has plenty o space in its news columns to devote to a statement issued by the tobacco trust in its own defense, and which it may be incidentally remarked is a tissue I of misrepresentation?to use no , harsher term?from begining to end. ' "In other words it would seem to J be the settled policy of the World to ? allow real news of a character that would prove vitally interesting to j many of its readers to be crowded ' out of its columns so long as there is ' the slightest possibility that snch i news might prove distasteful to the - tobacco trust; while on the other hand the World will accord the most ample space to any matter to which H the tobacco trust desires to give n publicity, regardless of whether it i- be news, whether it be true, or j whether it be of the slightest inter_ est to the World's hundreds of thousjj sands of raeders." t Senator Tillman was right when i_ he said that no instructions were _ nopflofl fnr tVin rlnLuafnu ffnm fViio *v/? vaiv \?viv^wvvi) X A VIII UIIIO State to Denver.

Tin* Farmers t'nioli Advising Km Members to I'lough I'p Cotton and Plant Ornin. Tho Farmers I'nlo'* 's advising its members to plow up 2f? per cent, of their cotton Just planted and put tho same land in other crops. This Is the only effective way to get a profitable price next, fall and the Colon will push the plan to the utmost The effect of this action on the p.-c.seiit crop yet in the farmers hands would he instanoous. The Carolina Union Farmer has the following to say on this subject: The plan to remove the possibility of low-priced eotton is simple, practical and effective. It is slmplv to go Into your fields and plow up a given amount of cotton and plant the land in peas, corn or some forage crop. This will cause a change of your plans, you say? Of course it Will, but the change is absolutely necessary to win your fight. You can't afford to follow an uncertain and foolish plan In ibis contest, when there is a sure and certain way You can't compete successfully with tho cunning brain of the gamblers without using your own brain and business sense. The way to defeat an enemy is to deceive and surprise him. As a plan for winning this fight for j t he pi Ice of cot ton, it is better to plow up the cotton already planted, than to have reduced the acreage to that extent at the beginning. This action taken now is at a time when it is too late for the Southern fools and lienors 10 increase moir colon acreage, as thoy would have done, If this action had hen taken earlier in the season. It will not only defeat those who would be disposed to act the traitor, but it will attack the gamblers' stronghold in a place least expected, and their defeat will be inevitable. It is a fact sustained by his story and by trade conditions that a tenmillion bale crop of cotton will bring more money in the aggregate than a 15,000,000 bale crop. We are a business organization and as such we must learn business ways from business, men if we succeed. When the manufacturers find that they are not getting as big profit on their goods as they want, they meet in organized "shut down" until the price advances. Inasmuch as the manufacturers have decided to "shut down" rather than pay the Minimum Price for cotton, it. is putting into practice I lie best kind of business sense for farmers to decide to "shut down" by plowing tip a part of t heir cot ton crop. Hy plowing up a portion of the cotton crop the benefit will come to us in a twofold way. it will cause the price of cotton to advance to a point where the acres that are left in cotton will bring more money than the whole would have brought. ThoreI fore, whatever crop we raise on the land where wo plow up a certain amount of cotton, that crop will represent a clear profit over and above what we would have otherwise had, in the windup. The corn, peas or en no that is produced on the land on which cotton is plowed up, will add that much more valuo to our products next fall, and the best part about the whole plan will be the beautifully crushing defeat of the gamblers who intend to price our cotton at 8c, or less, next fall. Is the fight worth winning? This is a matter that appeals to the patriotism of every Southern farmer and tests the -loyalty of every Farmers' Union man. ' Shall cotton prove to be another "lost cause" in the South? Let each individual answer this question by going promptly into his field and do some plowing that will yield a big gor profit than the same amount of plowing has ever yielded in this country. RESULT OF A TIOIIT SHOE. , Caused Blood Poisoning, Which Soon Proved Fatal. A dispatch from Bamberg says ono ( of the saddest deaths which h^.s oc cured there was that of Mr. Julius A. Rentz early Saturday morning. Mr. Rentz has been sick with blood poisoning for nearly three weeks, and the manner of his death was peculiarly sad. He had been to a picnic, and on his return home at night felt a pain in his foot, caused by hia shoe being too tight; his toes were slightly bruised and from this the blood poisoning started. Physicians worked with hlni constantly and operated several times, ' first amputating a single toe. Rut ! the poison continued, and on account of the bad condition of tho | patient's blood, it could not lie stopped. Several days ago as operation was ! performed, one leg being amputated, 1 but Mr. Rentz finally succumbed. There were three physicians in attendance and all possible means wero used to save the life of a well thought 1 of and promising young man. 1 Mr. Rentz was 30 years old and unmarried. He was a farmer, living L about five or six miles from Ramberg. 1 His estate is considered quite valuable as he had always been a very 1 economical man. He was a son ofl Mr. Jacob Res^z, who died last year. Y ii.. - - * * ,-v .... f'
