GERMS AND GERMS. “There is no reason to be exeited be- cttuse hen's eggs in Oregon have been discovered to contain tuberculosis g2rma. Tuberculosis germs are as com- »ion as mosquitoes, and whilo the public is constantly warned concern- ing the character of them, mo record appears to be kept of the immunity of humans from their attack, or of the pewer of resistance which exists in all healthy persons, The “bologna cow,” the cheap-meat cow of the mar- ket reports, is a tuberculosis in creature, and she has been eaten “all hot” sandwiches in this country for more then a quarter of a century in all the large cities, and, if the healthy were not immune, the disease would be more prevalent than it is. The Bulletin has the history of ene “pologna cow” sold in Norwich last year for just what she was to the butchers. The farmer who bought this cow s=ald that the milk, because of germs in it was as thick as cream, and that having consideration for his own nterests he would mot have dared fed it to his hogs. This milk was sold to customers vight up to the time it was sold to said farmer, and he took pains to inquire who took the milk for the purpose of seeing If any ill results were to be found. Not a user of this milk could be found who show- ed any signs of the disease. The cow, when slaughtered, opemed wp as bed as predicted, and was ac- cepted as s true bologna cow in the market, turped into sausages and sold te comsumers right here in Norwich. There has been no sign of consump- tion bresking out in new neighbor- hoods. This must then be because the germs are naturally destroyed, hence have mo effect. These cows are being seld all over the United States today, and the peo- ple are eating “cheap-meat” in vari- ous forms. Why would it not be a zood thing to trace these creatures and get a history of sales and effects? This is not being done, but it is ap- parent enough that consumers are im- mune. for if these germs were fatal to all the effects would be extensive enough and serieus enough to prompt the authorities everywhere to forbid the sale of these diseased animals for consumptien. As the Meriden Journal remarks, “the germ theory is being overwork- ed” and it is time the people saw that means of prevention are not in keeping with the declared danger of this alleged agent of death. Everybedy should give attention to the laws of health, and as little atten- tion as possible to the alarmists who profit in comsequence of the fear of the people. ROOSEVELT'S ADDRESS FRANCE. There is nothing new to the Ameri- ean people in the Rooseveltian ad- dresses which are just now command- ing the admiration and applause of tha French people. It is nothing new for him to preach the gospel of work, of <haracter, and of the strenuous life, ot o clas the sluggards, the cynics and the idle rich in a way that pleas iN the people The one paragraph in the speech which has attracted wide “attention @nd comment in this country is this: My position as regards the mon= eved rests can be put in a few wer In every civilized society, property rights must be carefully safeguarded. Ordinarily, and in the sreat majority of cases, human rights and praperty rights are fundamentally and in the long run identical. But when it clearly appears that there Is @ real conflict between them, human rights must have the upper hand, for property belongs to man and not man o property.” Tt is suggested that this is not only the kind of talk which is endorsed by the people of America, but the doc~ trine which congress should bear in mind when revising the tariff, study=~ ing the cost of living and framing up railrosd and couservation laws. JAMES HILL'S FISHING TRIP. ‘When James J. Hill of Chicago gives out that he is going into the north- west from Chicago on a fishing trip, e is suspected of fshing as few other men do. While we easterners might have interpreted his fishing trip as an engling campaign on the fish-laden streams of that picturesque country, 2 Nebraska editor, who appears to in- terpret Mr. Hill's words in another way. sars ut Mr. Hill, we observe by more areful scrutiny of his remark, did not say he was going fishing to catch fish, There is more ‘n that Pacific north- that a good fisherman may catch teside fish that swim in mountain streams. The pretty illusion is more nearly gispelied when we consider Mr. Hill's company on this fishing trip— Charles ¥. Baker, president of the First National bank of New York, and George F. Steele of J. P. Morgan & Co. This may be, but it does not look iike @ party of old-time fishermen. “A few little unbranded railroads wre straying at large up in that beau- tiful garden of the gods, and Mr. Hill snd former Senator W. A. Clark of Montana are said to have angled for them so many times it is difficult to gt away from the suspicien that Mr. Hill has found the bait which he be- lieves will land that game.” There are six mjllions of acres of land in Texas which will grow 60 tons ©f hyacinths to the acre, & hippopota- mus aiet which will promete hippo cultere there with a prospect of chesp hippo steaks elsswhere.
