HOOKWORM has recently been discovered in Cnlifoi nia. Tho pro valance of the pernicious parasite is found to be wide-spread in tho Golden state. It exists in tho mines, and among the Porto Rican and Oriental laborers, mostly engaged in agricultural pursuits. Inves tigation will probably show it. among tho "Digger" Indians and Mexicans.

By Ad Brown HULTj MOOSE NU31I1ER Some peoplo aro born famous and others have fatno thrust upon them. Harry ll." Hicks was made a Dull Mooso against his will. limits were found afflicted, and on account of the daime ot transmitting the parasite by uncooked vegetables, the gardens have been quarantined, and tho afflicted are being treated. Iu all probability, hookworm is prevalent in Oregon. It would account for the lotharirv and lazvness that afflicts so many of our inhabtants. On no other ground can the state's lack of materal progress bo explained. A larce clement not only will not work any more than they have to in order to keep the body and soul together, but oppose any other persons doing anything. The hookworm theory 'will account for much of the neglect of natural resources and prevailing undcvelop ment. The strange lassitude that has left thousands of acres untouched and other thousands onlv scratched, that has resulted in one crop being planted in the same land for half a century without change because it was easiest, that makes people travel veal- after vear over impossible roads Avheu a little labor would make them traversiblc, that has left our mines undeveloped and our forests untouched, that has worn the nit of the stale and unprofitable custom so deep that many cannot, sob nut nf if nil fWn mi m.i. other of the ills "that afflict is are probably due to the hookworm. Oregon doesn't need a quarantine too many people have already quarantined themselves intellectually but a little scientific treatment for the eradication of tJie para sitc might, bring beneficial results to the state. mmMSm mz DETROIT ALDERMEN mm rr WINiTON CHURCJilia Winaton Spvnwr Churchill, I'lrat Lnnl of tho Ailiulrally, amy j;o to Cull tula In tho ttuiutiin. j Arraignment of the Progressive Party !From his viewpoint It must have heen an enemy who circulated the story. 1, On tho other hand tncro aro those who tao pride ' in basking in the B.

L. idcClure. The progressive party makes un limited pretensions to honesty and ability to correct the evils inherent In tho old political parties, and promises to destroy the power of money and monopoly, which has pro duced poverty and degradation in the midst of superabundance for all, in a government supposed to bo ruled by tho people, the most verlle, intelligent and industrious, in the world's history; utilizing tho latest art in. machinery to multiply the pro duction of wealth by labor, under monopolies that vest capital with power to appropriato all tho profit and enslave labor by a wage system moro unjust and tyranlcal than chat tel slavery. It exhausts tho cataloguo of evils, which is the stock in trade of political demagogues since the beginning of political government, and like all ot their kind, promlso everything to get elected to office, but propose no remedy that can possibly removo the cause of the evils. Prosperity Is tho practical object and constant concern of every in dividual, and every citizen realizes In a vague and Indefinite way, that prosperity depends upon the admini stration ot political government; but tho subtle connection between gov ernment and prosperity Is so com pletely hid from popular comprehen sion by the complicated laws and customs tf society, that administra tions shift the blame to other than political causes. Roosevelt suspended the law for tho U. S. Steel Co., In tho panic ot 1907, to steal tho Tcnnesseo Coal &' Iron Co.; and testified ho would sus pend tho law again in a liko emer gency. With all his intelligence and experience ho remains profoundly ig norant of tho fact that there Is n definite and positive remedy that will make a panic imposslblo and prosperity perpetual. Boverldgo in his key-noto oration said "the invis lblo government behind our vlslblo government," hut elaborating tho thought only recognized tho bosses who feed trora tho "pork barrel" In stead ot tho invincible, money power that furnishes tho "pork barrel." Tho circulation of money Is as vital to tho body politic as blood to the Individual, and when money dis appears from circulation it creates bankruptcy, starvation and death throughout tho body politic as inovit ably as severing tho Jugular voln kills the Individual. Tho govern ment has stored in Its vaults gold coin by the hundreds of (millions, but has no means of putting it In circula tion at tho time of a panic. In 1907 the Treasury" Department dopoIted ?50,000,000 without Interest with 3. P. Morgan, which Morgan loaned to tho brokors in Wall Street at tho curro'rit rate ol interest; posing before Uio public as a hero who saved, by his generosity, tho country from go ing into bankruptcy. TJh.o total supply of gold coin Is a bagatelle to tho demand obligations of every country, ntfd the money kings control tho circulation of money as positively as steam pres sure. Watfwlll tljQ Hull Mooso party do when a panic occurs should thoy bo elected to office? Roosovolt emergency whenever It wants to. If such an Invincible power exists tho government and pcoplo aro alike powerless to opposo It, and all tho pretensions of tho progressive party are a delusion and a fraud; and tho same old Invisible power will rule under the progressives as it has un der old parties, and tho only differ ence will bo who shall havo tho offices and distribute tho spoils; for the cir culation of money and tho degree of prosperity Is solely regulated by financiers in control of tho money supply. Scientific money would put in cir culation a super-abundant supply of money, and maintain tho money meas ure a fixed and unchangeablo meas ure or valuo by tho automatic regu lation of money supply to equal monoy demand through interchange- ability with bonds. Credit would be as constant ns gravity, becauso sound credit rests on ability to pay, and there could bo no disturbance of credit if money was In reach of evoryono with wealth to exchango as positively as weights and measures. Prosperity would ho perpetual, and It would be easier to shut out sun shine from the face of tho earth than to stop prosperity In a country Ilka ours whllo tho pcoplo had monoy to burn. Tho defect In money is recognized by all economists, and all assort that a fixed and unchangeable' money measure is unattainable becauso all commodities fluctuate in vnluo with changes in supply and demand- scientific money provides tho desid eratum for a fixed and tinchnngonblo measure of valuo by eliminating a commodity ns a standard. Tho truth uttered by unrocognlzed authority Is Just as truo as it It 'came from tho highest authority. No ono can refute the truth and scien tific money has stood tho test before tho highest authorities in the United States. Tho question la tho greatest of all, for it will destroy money powor ab solutely, and monoy would havo no more Influence in tho affairs ot mon than bushel baskets, and if tho lead ers of tho progressive party aro sin cere In tho battlonfor tho common good It must adopt scientific money, rcfuto tt, or thoy desorvo to go down to oblivion with all tho other doma gogucs of tho ages. seam protests on seamen:s bill SEATTLE. .Wash., Aug.
