and not the disease itself. t ' The large number of cases occurring1 in some families can readily be explained by chance since cancer is a very frequent disease, especially among older people. In the light of present knowledge the public should not worry about the possibility of inheriting cancer. Cancer Is not contagious or Infectious. Allegations to the contrary, based on supposed "cancer houses." "villages" and streets" do not bear the light of investigation. Nearly all Buch cases have been shown to be due to special conditions, such as an unusual preponderance of old people, among whom the cancer death rate would naturally be high. The possibility of transferring cancer from one person to another by direct contact Is practically negligible. In the thousands of recorded operations for cancer there is no report from the surgeon or nurse. Ordinary care and cleanliness should, of course, be observed by those attending cancer patients, as in cases of any kind of illness.Durb.am S. C.J Sun.

THE "SHOW ME" STATE DECIDES. Evidently Missouri still has to be shown a little before deciding definitely on the "dry" question. Muncie Press: It is a pity that people of other states did not exhibit the same thoughtfulness as Missouri. The people there did not care for a regime of "hlind pigs" and corruption. They apparently comprehend the ciic unmorality of prohibition.

OITR STEEL INDUSTRY AFTER THE WAR. Our total exports of iron and steel manufactures during the first nine months of 1913 were valued at $226,500,000. That was the last nine months period under a Republican tariff law. During the first nine months of 1914, under the present tariff law, those exports fell to $152,800,000 In value. Business wa depressed during this period because we had no war to help the country out. " " ' During the first nine months of the current year our exports of iron and

steel manufactures reached the unprecedented total of $620,000,000. Mr. Wilson was credited with this by his following, and many people actually believed It. " At the rate we have been exporting these goods for the past nine months, we will have exported about 5,000,000 tons of iron and steel manufactures by the end of the year, which is just about equal to he exports from Germany the year before the war. A recent report of the Association of German Steel and Iron Manufacturers shows that German mills will produce this year on a scale equal to 82 per cent of her pig iron output and 70 per cent of the steel output of the record year 1913. Reports of operations in England indicate an output of pig iron and steel manufactures greater than any year except 1913. With a large portion of the French iron mines in the hands of the Germans, the production of France is double what it waa in 1915, according to the Iron Age. which goes on to say: "ThuB there bids fair to be a greater .French steel output after the war, to be added to the increases in Germany and Great Britain." In normal times, the big steel business of Germany, England and France is in export markets. Of course, a large proportion of their iron and steel industries recently have been devoted to the manufacture of war material. But their mills can and will immediately return to the business of export when the war ceases, while the American industries must inevitably experience a severe cutting down of their export trade. Not alone that, but our steel manufacturers foresee severe competition In the domestic market from German, English and French producers, if the present tariff law should continue. The steel manufacturers of the United States are particularly desirous of extending their markets in South and Central America. They will meet European competition there. The efficiency of our steel-workers is more than counterbalanced by the low wage scale of Europe. If our mills are "slowed down because of a considerable absorption of the domestic market by European manufacturers, even that efficiency, which is mainly the result of mills running at 100 per cent capacity, will receive a setback which will make competition with Europe in the markets of South America impracticable, in addition to the loss suffered here. It is a logical conclusion, therefore, that the Wilson-Underwood law must be superseded by a tariff law which, by whatever name called, will enable industrial America to meet after-the-war competition. The era of free trade in this country is near its close. Even Wilson himself Is exhibiting his characteristic wabble on this question.

Secretary of War Baker has made it clear that he realizes hrs unfitness and is ready to retire to private life, but no such gratifying word comes from that prize piffler, Josephus Orangeblossom Daniels. To remove the public udder from the capacious mouth of Josephus will require the service of a block and tackle. Fort Wayne News. And as for Redfield, he of Eastland fame, somebody would have to choke him before he'd let loose. However, this crowd is voted into power again for four years, so the only thing the country can do is to grin and bear it.

THE SHADES IN THE LAND BEYOND. Perhaps the hardest blow to true American faith i3 the falling away of Ohio from its traditional position in support of our institutions and the spirit we have boasted in the past. That the state of McKlnley, Garfield, Hayes. Sherman and a host of other great Americans should forsake the Republican party at a time of national crisis is astounding. Where Is the patriotism of Ohio that it could uphold surrender of American rights as against protection of them? What has become of the loyalty of the sons of Ohioans who shed their blood and laid down their lives in behalf of human rights and national honor? Why the reversal of fidelity to the policy of

protection to American industries that has made Ohio one of the leading

industrial states of the Union In favor of free trade that is bound to Injure her interests? In the land beyond, the shades of Ohio's great weep bitter tears of humiliation that their sons and their sons' sons have proved faithless to the interests. of. the country which they held sp dear. Pittsburgh Gazette.

PROHIBITION IN ARKANSAS. Subjoined is a description of prohibition in Arkansas, it being the recital of Hotel Keeper Miller of Hot Springs, who related his experiences with the unmoral situation In his state before the National Congress of Hotel Associations in session -at -New York. "Fifty-one per cent of the white people in Arkansas," he said, "had voted the state wet. By invitation of the Chamber of Commerce the entire state legislature came to Hot Springs on a Sunday, and the mayor of' the city compelled me to open my bar. They drank up 121 quarts of whisky and smoked 1,200 cigars, and the next day they went back to Little Rock and voted the state dry. "Now I have three barkeepers, and each of them is a duly authorized agent of the American Express company. To get a bottle of anything to drink in my state you have to have it shipped in with your own name on the bottle; but a man who registers at the hotel gives his name to one of the barkeepers, he wires to the importation company in St. Louis, and the next morning the guest receives his shipment with his name on the label of every bottle. If that's prohibition, I want something else."

FALSE TRADITIONS. Cancer has not been proved to be hereditary. Recent demonstrations of the inheritance of a liability to cancer in certain strains of mice must be confirmed and extended to other species of animals before the conclusions can be applied to human beings.

Even those holding the strongest that a tendency to cancer is inherited KI
