Tho second part of tho ceremonies
counected with tho funeral of the
lato Japanese Emperor, began in
Tokio, the 13th, tho body of tho
Into ruler being started from the
capltol on its Journey to Monoyama
for final burial. Tho ceremony was
an Imposing one, the dignitaries of
tho naUon being present as well
as representatives from all tho great
powers and many other nations. On
all sides were evidences of mourn
ing for tho nation loved MutsuhlP
as a father.
A gruesomo evidence of that lovo
was the sulcldo of Gen. Nogl and his
wlfo at tho end of tho day's cere
monies when tho cannon boomed
announcing tho departure of tho
funeral train.
Gen. Nogl shared with Field Mar
shal Oyama Uio highest honors In tho
great victory over tho Russians. It
was ho that besieged and raptured
Port Arthur and later won tho vie
tory of Mukden.
Tho suicide of tho General and the
Countess, his wife, was in accord
ance with tho ancient religious cus
tom of tho Japanese, It being con
sidered just and holy to die in tho
memory of a friend.
Tho tragic event, h'owover, but
emphasizes tho fact that an advance

The Mexican Revolutionists, as well
as tho Federal Government, havo
begun to rtallzo that Uncle Sam's
Vatlcnco is about exhausted, and
thero aro ovldcncea that recent warn
ings havo been heeded, tho Revolu
tionists having struck camp along
tho border and disappeared toward
tho South. Orders had been given
tho border patrol to Interfere If
tho contemplated attack on Augua
Prletn, which would havo endanger
ed American Citizens across the in
ternational boundary, had been made.
It Is reported, however, that out
breaks oven moro serious against tho
Government aro growing thruout tho
country, and tho end cannot be fore
seen. Madaro, tho Revolutionist, made
himself President, and it is not to
be wondered at that ho Is bcst
with revolutions, nor will It bo sur

A COMMON FIRE-BRAND
Out of tho West comes Gov. Johnson, third party VlcePresiden.
tlal candidate out of the West to convert the slow and effete East.
And the Governor can teach the East much much as to cam.
palgn methods, much that had bettor remain untaught, if some of his
utterances are to bo taken as oxamples of his spirit aud tho spirit of
the party that he represents.
Addressing tho Progressive convention in tho president's home
state, he is said to havo characterized Mr. Tnfl as "the most humiliat.
ing spectacle in American History,"
Gov. Johnson is a fire-brand, lie is not a progressive nor docs
he seek progress. lie is a fomentor of revolution. His purpose is
to infiamo the passions of the volatile and irresponsible, of tho ignor
ant and the prejudiced. He is the kind that schools anarchists and
encourages men of ungoreruod passions to assassinate presidents.
Cautious criticism in not to be condemned, but when criticism is
lowered to the plane of vulgar abuse it i not criticism. It serves no
wotlhy purpose. Not only is Governor Johnson doing great injustice
to a great man, but ho is bringing into disrepute the highest office in
tho land.
The Governor haa been too neighborly with Mexico. He has im
bibed Mexican methods and Mexican ideals. And his campaigning
and the campaigning of those like him, if successful, can have nothing
but Mexican results.
How long will it be until wo shall not be electing presidents but
shall witness the spectacle of the highest effice in the land going to
the most ambitious the ono who, though defeated, can rally around
him a largp.coterio of the disaffected and other reckless adventurers.
One of Governor Johnson's own followers characterizes his
onslaught on the President as "the utterance of a man utterly disti
tute of the attributes of a gentleman."
It is consoling to remember that our worst abused havo been our
best presidents.
"It thirats and burnt for distinction! and. If possible, It will have It, Is It
unreasonable, then, to expect that tome men, possessed of the loftiest gonlut,
coupled with ambition tufficient to puth to the utmost etretoh, will at tome
time spring up among utT And whtn tuch a one does. It will require the peo
ple to be united with etch other, atttchtd to the government and laws, and
generally Intelligent, to tuecettfully frustrate hit design.
"Distinction will be hit paramount object, and although he would aa will
ingly acquire it by doing good at harm, yet nothing left In the way of building

Directions Issued by the
To tho Health Officials, Physicians
and Peoplo of Kentucky:
Consumption is tho most common
and fatal dlseaso with which the peo
plo of Kentucky are afflicted. It pro
duces moro than twice as many deaths
as any other disease, causing ono
death out of every ctx, as shown by
tho oflctal certificates returned to
tho Bureau of Vital Statistics for
tho first seven months of tho year
1911. Our reports show that thore
havo been 0,085 ca3cs of tuberculosis
under treatment by tho doctors of
Kentucky slnco January 1, 1911, and
that '3,225 have died In seven months
since, tho death rate being C3 per
cent
Ab it Is now definitely known to
bo a communlcablo germ dlseaso, a
largo part of this sickness and mort
ality can and ought to bo prevent
ed. Careful and extended investi
gation and observation has demon
strated that tho chief source of
danger Is from tho sputum or ex
pectorated matter of consumptives,
which contains tho germs or seed of
tho dlseaso In countless numbers, and
that such sputum Is cspecallly dan
gerous after it has dried. Tho germs
may be constantly found In tho air
and dust from the carpets walls and
furnishings of rooms, occupied by con
sumptives, whero every precaution
Is not taken to collect and disinfect
such Bputum as fast as It is expector
ated. Most patients constantly re-

stant and serious danger. This is
nono tho less true because the dis
ease may not develop so that It can
bo recognized tor months or even
je.irs. These dangers exist to a less
extent also In public buildings and
rooms frequented and infected by
carelpss consumptives.
Being confident that consumption
could bo practically exterminated If
tho medical profession and pcopla
could be made to realize tho import
ance of destroying tho sputum from
every ono afflicted with the disease,
tho following rules have been prepar
ed with caro, and should be dissem
inated, and aa occasion requires, ob
served by all afflicted persons and
families, and all others interested In
public welfare:
1. Every person who has an habi
tual cough and expectoration should
havo a microscopical examination of
the sputum made to ascertain It It
contains tho germs cf consumption.
Until this can bo done, or it the germa
are formed, all of the sputum should
bo carefully and systematically, col
lected and destroyed or disinfected
for bis own protection, as well as
that of bthors.
2. Every partlclo of tho sputum
should be received upon soft paper
and promptly burned, or Into cuspi

of Mmo? four ounces to a gallon of
water, or of equivalent strength,
