National Insurgency

We are publishing today extracts from papers all over the country that hare the same ideas about things that people believe hereabouts. It Is National Insurgency. "It is do single voice crying in the wilderness that denounces the unworthiness of the rulers who have failed. Anger against the men who have betrayed their parties as well as the people is spreading throughout the country into repudiation of the parties that throughout the years have permitted that betrayal." Philadelphia North American.

"The bosses who have held the voters of the United States in abject, thraldom for years, but whose hold gets looser daily, are Indifference, Ignorance and Partisan Prejudice: Ever effective In keeping otherwise intelligent men from seeing and thinking, they have done more, thesa three, for Privilege Monopoly and Legalized Wrong than all the Aidriches and Cannons in creation. Overthrow this triumvirate, and petty human basses will shrivel up and die for lack of nourishment. Puck.

"The talk about organization will probably be kept up until people will get angry and do what they have done in seventy cities in this country, and that is, kill the organization by throwing the remains of the parties, together with all the symbols, -eagles, stars, clasped hands, etc., into the Junk pile." William Allen White, Emporia (Kan.) Gazette.

"In a government by the people, which is what patripts hope eventually to regain, parties that do not respond to the demands of the citizenship are worse than useless. Better no parties at all than sham parties. If the Republican party goes back to the principles of Lincoln it will survive and flourish. If as organization "it continues to serve Mammon and betray the people it will soon die, and there will be few to mourn its passing. Its fate rests with the rank and file, and the coming election means either its ruin or its regeneration." San Francisco Bulletin. .... v

Representative Citizens Asked to Support Morton Monument Project.

LETTERS BEING SENT OUT

SIGNATURES TO A PETITION TO BE PRESENTED TO THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ARE BEING SOLICITED NOW.

"It has been a winning fight. The people have been informed more completely than ever before. Out of this Information an intelligent, aggressive, earnest public opinion has arisen. This public opinion has forced upon the statute books of many cities, many states, and even the nation, laws to curtail the power of business in politics. Direct nominations hava come Into use, lobbying has been thorn of its most vicious features, commission regulation is giving the people a fighting chance with the, public service corporations, local machines have been broken and thrown on the scrap heap. Little by little public welfare has been gaining in this long Contest with special privilege." Lafollete's Magazine.

"After all, stupid magnates and crafty lawyers can only delay and make costly our nation-wide readjustment. They cannot thwart it. Just what form this readjustment will ultimately take, no one can say. That it will not be the "socialism" feared by many as a' sort of crazy political bogy, seems practically certain. As we understand socialism, it is a yeast, not a loaf. "Yen, our corporation rulers will lose. They guessed wrong. In their frenzied speculation, they have gambled on the wrong principle.- You can ; build an empire of greed, deceit, treason and plunder, but you can build it only on the foundation of an ignorant peasantry. The' early Vanderbilt and the later Morgan overlooked an important factor. They should have begun by closing the schools. In the long run and perhaps it will not be so long now the schools will beat them." Success.

Kerns Gathered In . ' From Far and Near

Knlft Cures Dropsy. ' . (Boston Cor. New York Press.) w a) iL. . m

jjrupsy, one . oi uie most areaaea diseases to which human beings are subject and hitherto considered incurable, has at last yielded to the knife, so It Is reported by the surgeons of the Massachusetts General Hospital. In proof of the truth of their statement they point to Henry Lemay. a shoemaker of Marlboro. Mass., who, after having undergone an operation, has so Improved, under the constant operation of the experts, he is now reported cured. The operation on Lemay was the first of the kind In this country, and the sixth in the world. It was performed by Dr. William A. Brooks Jr., of the hospital staff. The operation resorted to In Lemay'8 case was originated by Dr. Y. Soyesimi, of Japan, who has lost two out of his three cases. Dr. Rortte, a Frenchman, reports three cases, of which two are still living. The results so far lead to the belief dropsy eventually will yield to the knife as readily as appendicitis or other aliments which formerly proved fatal in the overwhelming majority of Instances. The operation which has saved Lemay consists in providing a permanent drainage system by means of which the dropsical fluid, which comes from the blood, la returned to the blood. Dropsy is not a disease, but a symptom, and has varying forms, depending on the disease of diseases causing It. It is a condition charac

terized by an excess of the natural fluid in .any of the serous cavities of

the body or in the aerolar tissue. Lemay's trouble was diagnosed by the doctor's as chylous ascites. Dropsy is known as ascites when the fluid collects in the abdominal cavity. Chyle is a milky fluid containing emulsionized fat and other products of digestion. , The fluid In Lemay'a case was of this character and collected in the abdomen. Ascites may develop without assignable cause, but comes most frequent

ly from cirrhosis of the Jiver. The ;

doctors told Lemay that they could not determine definitely the cause of the dropsical fluid in his case. They said it was a tropical disease. But he had never been in the tropics. It might come from excessive drinking, .but he had always been temperate. It might be caused by a cancerous growth. If so, the cancer Itself must have disappeared, the experts said. Dr. Soyeslma's, theory, so successfully worked out In Lemay's case, is the apparently simple one of draining the fluid back into the blood. It comes from the blood and contains life-giving elements which ought to be assimilated by the body, and would be assimilated if all the bodily organs were doing their work. Why not put It back? Such was the idea of the Japanese surgeon. That was what was actually done with the Marlboro man by Dr. Brooks. , . . ' The saphenous vein, which runs from the foot on the inside of the leg

to the femoral, or large vein, near the abdomen, has been -turned into a drainage pipe. The vein was severed,

or tied oft at the knee, whereupon I

the portion above the knee became a

hollow tube. This tube was then doubled back upon Itself, and the end inserted into the abdomen, forming a direct connection between the abdomen and the big vein. The same operation was performed on both legs, though not at the same time, and when Lemay left the hos

pital he had two drainage tubes, through which the dropsical fluid was being drawn from his abdomen and emptied back into the blood. When the wounds of the operation had healed the only visible evidence of what had been done -were the scars left by the knife. The tubes were under the skin, where the veins are in their natural condition. The net effect of the operation was to make an addition to the natural system of circulation, thereby causing the forces concentrating on the dropsical fluid to do a sort of tread

mill or endless chain work. Though the particular type of dropsy from which Lemay suffered is very rare scarce seen in the average hosp'tal practice in a life time the principle is tho same in every kind of drorsy, the experts say, and what was done to the Marlboro man can be accomplished in the case of any ordinary dropsical subject, provided there are no other complicating diseases and the operation be skillfully and perfectly carried through. At the time of the operation on Lemay he weighed 130 pounds. The doctors told him he had but a few weeks to live. So rapid was the accumulation of fluid in his abdomen that he had to be tapped every eight or ten days. A mere shadow of his former self, in constant pain, unable to sleep or eat, he submitted to the surgeon's knife as a forlorn hope. Eleven weeks after the operation the man was walking the streets. Today he weighs 190 pounds and is almost as active as before his illness. The only visible evidence of dropsy remaining in his whole body is a slight swelling in the left leg, but this is gradually disappearing. . Lemay sleeps and eats as well as ever in his life, and feels no pain whatever, he says. His heart and other vital organs, which were pushed three inches to the left by the pressure of the dropsical fluid, have again resumed their normal positions.

Initial steps have been taken by the Young Men's Business Club in ' the campaign to secure a bronze statue of Oliver P. Morton, to be unveiled during the G. A. R. encampment next year, and a letter is being mailed to influential men all over the, county asking their assistance and support. The missive is self-explanatory, and is as follows; Dear Sir: At the request of the -Grand Army veterans of this county and likewise the Sons of Veterans, the Young Men's Business Club haa taken up the work of securing a soldiers' monument, on which Is to be placed the statue of Oliver P. Morton. The Wayne county commissioners are authorized to appropriate a sum of money to build this monument, provided the majority of voters in the county petitions them to do so. The commissioners have expressed themselves as being favorable to such a commendable undertaking, and if we can secure the majority of voters on the petition to the commissioners, we believe that there will be no question but that a suitaMe monument will be secured. The plaster cast of Morton now in the court house is to" be utilized and a bronze statue made from it. It is thought the entire cost will not exceed $5,000. The probable site of the statue is the court house yard, although this has not been decided. The committee in charge of getting signers to the petition desire you to take charge of the work in your community, and I trust that you will be able to do so. We would like to have the petition signed as soon as possible, because it is planned to dedicate the monument at the G. A. R. encampment to be held in Richmond in May, 1911, so you can well see that we must move rapidly to get the work done. Feeling sure that you will be glad to aid in such a commendable undertaking, and thanking you in advance in behalf of the club, I am, W. W. RELLER, Secretary.

Wor For His Sheep. A resident of London with a taste

Lfor deviled kidneys found himself re

cently in a remote west of England village, where a , sheep was killed about once a week. Not knowing that mutton was a luxury and kidneys, for obvious reasons, therefore, a rarity, he presented himself day after day at the village butcher's with the same request for his favorite breakfast dish. The butcher, looking upon bis customer as a lunatic, bore it as long as he could, but on the, fifth day said Indignantly, "If you think, young man, that my sheep have nothing better to do than to lay kidneys for your breakfast you be mortal mistook."
