Washington, Oct. 1 In a no tab!
speech before th dosing session of
th Tuberculosis .congress President
Roosevelt lauded the reclamation of
the ranama Canal Zone from yellow
fever and kindred diseases aa a treat
triumph for the medical profession and
sanitation. The president, aurrounded
by 'aeoret aervlce guards, appeared at
Uit oongress unexpectedly at naif peat
twelve. secretary coneiyou waa in tne
tnldat of a speech, when wild . applause
at the rear of the hall and the opening
Oars or "Hail Columbia," wnion waa
soon chanced to "The Star Spangled
lianner," , told th delegates and the
audience of the arrival of the chief
magistrate of the nation, Sir, Roose
velt aald:
"I could not " deprive myself of the
privilege of saying a word of greeting
to thla noteworthy gathering. .
' "It la difficult for ua to realise the
extraordinary change, the extraordinary
' progress In certain lines of social en
deavor during the ' last two or three
generations; and In no other manifesta
tion of human activity have the changes
len quite so far reaching as in the
ability to grapple with disease.

- 7t la not ao vary long, measuring
the time by history, since the attitude
or man towards disease, aucn aa that
of consumption, was one of helpless
Inactivity. The tendency was to ac
quiesce in what was ' considered to be
the mandate of a superior power.
' 'It ia but a short time since even
' the most gifted men of the medical
' profession knew as little as any Jay
man, of the real cause of diseases like
. this ana the remedy to be invoiced to
overcome it -
' "It is apparently only within a few
decades, I am almost tempted to say
within a few years, that we go back
to cover the period of real progress.
Take, for instance, the work the United
, Estates government is now doing In
Panama. When the first railroad was
built it was said, with some foundation
of truth, that every sleeper waa laid
across the life of a man.
- "Now the work of the canal In that
' Identical place la being prosecuted oh
a larger scale, of course, than the
mere building, of a railroad, under con
ditions 'Which make the locality stand
with about ordinary localities of the
United States In point of health.
' "The Isthmus of Panama, whjeh was
a byword for fatal disease, has become
well known as a sanitarium; and It has
become so because of the Investiga
tions -of medloal men of ability, to
find out the real causes of disease,
specially yellow and malarial fever,
and who took measures i to overcome
them.
"Thla moment. In the heart of Africa,
there la a peculiar disease known aa
the sleeping sickness which, if It had
been known In ancient times, would
bave been known by some such name aa
the black death,' or possibly as some
thing caused by the fall of a comet
If not some similar explanation would
bave been advanced.
"This disease killed 100,000 out of
J 00,000 people in one d 1st riot, a rate
of slaughter, of course. Infinitely

"Until but a few years ago hardly an

"It must remain for them to find out

Figures on Recent Primary
, .Election Reveal Vagaries
of New Law.
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.
Olympla, Wash., pot. 8. Official fig
ures on the result of the recent state
primary election In Washington throw
a curious sidelight on the peculiarities
' of the new primary law adopted by this
'state. .
B. G. Cosgrove, the Pomeroy farmer,
was nominated for governor on the Re
publican ticket, although Henry Mc-
liriage was the first choice of the peo
ple by nearly 8,000 votes and Albert E.
Mead led the eastern Washington man
led in both first and second choice votes
and has a majority of 4,463 altogether,
non en t. i;ee a. jonnson,
received a total of 10,790 votes against
It was the second choice vote that won
for most of the candidates where the
contest was close. Cosgrove got enough
or these to make his plurality over
. .Mead, his nearest competitor, 8,266.
I ne total vote cast ror tne three lead
ing aspirants for the gubernatorial seat
-waa as follows: Cosgrove 67,761. Mead
, 49J02, Mclirida 47,694.
The law provides that when no can
didate secures 40 per cent of the first
choice vote the nomination shall go to
the candidate having the most first and
second votes. Cosgrove secured al
most double the number of second
choice votes given to any other com
petitor, and so his total gave him a
comfortable plurality and the nomina
tion. The contest for the nomination for
;, lieutenant-governor was won In the
same way At first Charles E. Coon
was conceded the nomination, as he
had a majority of first choice votes,
but with belated returns M. E. Hay, his
close rival, forged ahead and won out
by a total malority of 6,902.
W. P. Bell candidate for attorney
reneral, was led for first choice by w.
V. Tanner and J. H. Easterday, each of
whom had 7,000 more first choice votes
than Bell. The latter, however, was
th overwhelming pick of the second
choice voters, securing the nomination
. by a total majority of 10,867 votes.
In these three contests only did the
second choice vote count greatly, as
the other places, though fought for
closely, all went to the men who got
the l greatest number of first choice
votes.
The race for the nomination for con-
Poindexter'a 15,243. There waa only
one candidate for congressman from the
First district and only one for the same
nomination in the Second district W.
E. Humphrey received a courtesy vote
of 27,000 In the First and F. W. Cush
man 19,812 votes In the Second district
The keenest race of all was that for
the nomination for state treasurer. J.
O, Lewis waa given a vote of 87,064 and
E. K. Krwln 38.721. Lewis won bv a
plurality of only 843 votes, th narrow
est margin by which any candidate of
tne KepuDllcan party waa nominated.
Sam H Nichols was nominated over
I. M. Howell for secretary of state by
a plurality and majority or i,t5. xne
total vote accorded him was 69,671.
For stat auditor C. W. Claussen was
chosen with a vote of 49,749, a plurality
of 18 836. , ;
The Democratic vote waa remarkably
light owing to the fact that there were
no contests for any nomination except
for governor, lieutenant-governor, ana
tha reference for United States sena
tor. John Pattlson of Colfax won the
nomination for governor over A. j.
Splawn by only 218 votes. Pattlson se
cured the most first choice votes and
Blackman. hardly in the running for
first choice, got nearly enough second
choice votes to giv mm me nomina
tion. He was a close third to the two
leaders with a total vote Of 5,844.
George F. Cotterill was the prefer
ence for United States senator by a
vote of 7,881 to M. M. Godman's 6,491.

Chicago, Oct 8. Yesterday at Ster
ling, 111., Congressman Longworth, son-
In-law of Prealdent Roosevelt declared
that after eight yea re of Taft It waa
to be Roosevelt In tha White Houae
again. The Chicago Journal has taken
thla up under the editorial oaptlon, "The
Roosevelt Dynasty," pointing out that
Mr. Roosevelt has four aona to whom
he doubtless Intends to have his crown
descend, and It may thea go to the
Longworth branch of , the house of
Roosevelt."
The colonial policy of Roosevelt maj
then be followed by this imperial
Kooseveit line, mat would snut out
Fairbanks. La Follette. Hushes. Cannon,
Beveridge, or any other aspirant The
American schoolboy could no longer
look forward to the White House as
Dosalble sroal.
Lonrworth.'a utterance stamps Taft
beyond dispute aa merely the vice-re
gent of Roosevelt, ruling during a aort
or protectorate uniu nooseveii snan o
ready to come into nis own agaia.
This Longworth declaration, coming
right from Roosevelts own ramuy.
must be authoritative.

sore at this break, coming on top or

Chicago. Oct 8. The utterance of
Congressman Longworth, son-in-law of
President, Roosevelt that Taft should
be kept eight years in the White House
and then Roosevelt should' be elected
In 1916, to remain president two terms,
supplied the sensation for today. His
speech last night at Sterling, 111.,
has caused Longworth to be dubbed gen
erally by politicians "the Burchard of
the Taft campaign.'1
Opinions naturally have varied as to
the significance of the statement Some
say Nick has let out .a state secret
which will enrage many Republican pol
iticians and cause the alienation of a
large support, and that he has merely
let the cat out of the bag.
John E. Lamb, in charge of Demo
cratic headquarters, aald:
"There is evidence that Longworth
has let slip an intimation ol plans actu
ally laid. It explains the president's
anxiety to get Taft nominated, and
the present fight he is making, by us
ing the machinery of the federal gov- ;
eminent, , to force his election. The
president is talked of for United States
senator from New York. If chosen his
term would erid almost exactly In eight
years. Buch an outcome wouia give ,
Roosevelt and Taft between them prao- ;
tically 24 years, or a Quarter of a cen
tury, In control of the government.
"It is aDDarent that Longworth has
become the Burchard of this campaign 1
for the Republicans." "
Chroniclers have recalled tnai one
before "Nick" revealed state "tcrets
for which he was roundly scolded by
the president. When at Manila he av
out an Interview saying the president
might accept renommatlon. Later it
developed that the president had used
that threat to force Taffs nomination,
ronllv mennlnsr It. servlns notice on
certain opponents of Taft to that ef-j
rect.
The most noticeable feature of the
discussion Is that Taft's partisans re-1
sent Longworth's utterance, aa tiemg
them up too closely with Kooseveit
it LIQUOR ONLY ,
