What Is the origin of the word roor
back as meaning a campaign lie?
It had a campaign origin sure
enough. In 1844, after James K. Polk
wa3 nominated by the Democrats for
president, the Albany Journal pub
lished what purported to be an extract
from one Roorback's journal of a trip
through the south, represented to have
been made a few years before, in
which he told of having seen a gang
of negroes being driven to the south
ern market, all branded J. K. P. as the
property of James K. Polk. The ob
ject was to stigmatize Polk as a heart
less slave owner. The publication was
resented by Democrats as a forgery
and a libel on their candidate, and so
it proved to be. for it turned out that
no such person as Roorback ever exist
ed and that the pretended letter pub
lished in the Albany paper was writ
ten by a disreputable politician of
New York who posed as an abolition
ist. The incident caused much hard
feeling, and the word roorback became
a synonym for campaign lies.
Where does the hookworm disease
get its name?
The hookworm disease is so named
from a small parasite which fastens
itself in the intestines and preys upon
the system. -The name hookworm re
lates to the peculiar structure of the
parasite (which has been named Neca
tor americanus, American murderer),
and the disease is attributed to low nu
trition and insanitary conditions.
Please tell if there ie any virtue in
planting aeeda "in the moon." la the
'planting in the moon method super
stition or science?
The planting of seeds is not affected
in any way whatever by the moon's
phases.
What is the origin of the word baU
lot? Doea it apply to any but a writ*
ten vote?
Etymologically ballot means a little
ball, such as were used, white and
black ones, for secret voting, and in
time it came to mean any kind of
secret voting. The ancient Greeks
ased marked shells for voting, and
from the Greek word ostrakon, a shell,
comes the English word ostracize—that
Is, to shut out by one unfavorable shell.
Secrecy is the prime object of any
form of ballot whether by white and
black balls or by written or printed
slips, and. strictly speaking, the word
ballot does not properly apply to an
open or viva voce vote.
How long was it between the first
discovery or demonstration of wire
less telegraphy and the first uae of it
in ease of shipwreck?
About ten years. Marconi made a
demonstration Of it In 1897. In 1902
messages passed between Cape Breton
and Cornwall. England, and in 1909
the passengers and crew of the Repub
lic were saved by wireless.
