Health Board Not Supported.
Des Moines, Aug. 12. In reply to
criticisms of the Iowa state board of
health. Secretary Sumner of the state
board of health stated that the chief
trouble Is that the Iowa board has no
money with which to do business,
like boards In other states. The fact
la that the Iowa board has been very
poorly supported by the state, and it
Is doing all the work It can within
tbe appropriation. A report from the
paralysis In northern Iowa Is not ex
pected this week, but a commission
Is at work on the epidemic. A new
question has been raised' by the asser
tion that the epidemic Is something
entirely new. or at least very different
Trom anything before known.

ALDRICII DENIES
RUBBERGHARGES
Rhode Island Senator Makes
Reply to Brlstow,
TARIFF WAS MADE UNIFORM.
Says Neither He Nor Any Member of
Hit Family Has Ever Had Any Pe
cunlary Interest in Rubber Rates.
Pays Respects in Caustic Language
to Kansan and "Little Group."
Washington, Aug. 12. Senator Nel
son W. Aldrlch of Rhode Island enu
merating the counts under which be
was indicted by Senator Joseph W.
Brlstow of Kansas in recent campaign
speeches dealing with the tariff on
rubber, In a letter, denies the charges
in their entirety.
Incidentally he pays his respects In
caustic language to Senator Brlstow
and what be terms a "little group of
men" who entertain opinions similar
to those of the Kansan.
The letter Is addressed to William
II. McKlnley of Illinois, chairman of
the Republican congressional commit
tee, and was sent to the headquarters
of the committee In this city. The ex
planation of the rubber duties and the
denial of the charges made against
him by Senator Brlstow are based up
on the fact that Senator Aldrlch was
called upon by a Republican candidate
for congress to furnish tbe facts con
nected with tbe changes made in the
recent tariff act.
Referring to the charges made by
Senator Brlstow as "absurd misstate
ments," Senator Aldrlch said the per
sistent reiteration of them Impelled
him to make a full statement At thg
outset of big long letter the senator
divided the speeches by Mr. Brlstow
Into five parts, eacb of which contained
a specific charge. He then dealt with
them In order.
In the first place the senator de
clared the Increase from 25 to 35 per
cent on a small number of articles of
manufactured' rubber articles was for
the purpose of making the tariff uni
form on kindred articles and for light
ening the labors of the customs of
ficers. 4 Makes Letter Public.
In that connection he made public a
letter to him from General Thad S.
Sharrett8, a member of the New York
board of general appraisers, asserting
that tbe change was advisable and
had been agreed to unanimously by
the senate and house committees and
by the conferees on the tariff bill at
the earnest solicitation of the tariff
experts of the treasury department.
Laying particular stress upon this
charge made by Mr. Brlstow, the chair,
man of the senate finance committee
said that "neither be nor any mem
ber of his family has ever had any
pecuniary Interest as to whether the
rates on manufactures of rubber were
30, 35 or 300 per cent, or whether
crude rubber was on the free or duti
able list.'
Pealing with charges that the In
tercontinental Rubber company, of
which be Is a director, Is a trust, that
It advanced the price of crude rubber,
and controlled the world's supply, and
that the company had paid enormoua
dividends, Mr. Aldrlch treated each
separately and at great length.
Without raising any Issue concern
ing the "progressives' " campaign gen
erally, Mr. Aldrlch referred to Mr.
Brlstow and his Immediate associates
ns follows:
"In the tariff discussions of other
days the advocates of tho protective
policy usually have been called to
meet In debute men with convictions
on the subject Democrats of charac
ter, whose theories of government dif
fered completely from those held by
Republican protectionists men who
had some regard for tho accuracy of
their statements nnd somo knowledge
of the subjects they discussed.
"Now attacks upon a Republican
president and Republican measures
are led by men whose polltlcnl exist
ence depends upon their capacity and
to this there seems to be no limit
for misrepresentation and' the Ignor
ance of their adherents. Strnngely
enotiKh, this little group of men very
imall In number has anointed to
Itself the leadership of tho progres
sives, and Its members prate about
the treatment of the tariff as a moral
question."

Funeral or William MayaJL
The remains of William Mayall,
who died In Omaha Wednesday, ar
rived at the Burlington station this
morning and were met by the Platts
mouth friends and Canon Burgess.
The casket was opened and the well
known features of the former Platts
mouth citizen were viewed by many
of his former acquaintances.
It was the intention of his Omaha
friends to have the body Interred
there and the grave was dug and
all arrangements made for the fun
eral to occur yesterday. But Mrs.
Coates and daughter arrived from
Galesburg and requested that the re
mains be brought to Plattsmouth and
Interred by the side of her parents
in the family lot In Oak Wood ceme
tery. It was finally decided to ac
cede to Mrs. Coates wishes and the
funeral was thus delayed one day.
Mr. Tom Tart, a close personal friend
of Mr. Mayall who had watched by
his bedside like a brother during the
ten days of his last sickness, com
pleted the arrangements for the
transfer of the remains to Platts
mouth. The county attorney of Doug
las county was seen and the grave in
the Omaha cemetery filled up. Mr.
Hart accompanied the remains to
Plattsmouth In company with Anton
Nitka and other friends. At the cem
etery Canon Burgess read the simple
and impressive service of the Epis
copal church. Those attending the
funeral from out of the city were:
Mrs. Coates and daughter Rheada, of
Galesburg, 111., Mrs. Duncan of Om
aha and her sister Mrs. Elder, of
Huron, South Dakota, and Tom Hart
of Omaha.
Will Start Conf-etloneif.
Yesterday afternoon a smooth In
dividual with one arm In a sling was
making an effort to raise sufficient
funds to enable him to start up in
the confectionery business. He. was
making his hustle in the Second
ward of the city and told the sym
pathizing ladles who came to the
door In response to his knock, that
he was an orphan, having neither
father nor mother living, that he
had been unfortunate in getting his
arm scalded, and If he could raise
the means he would Immediately
start up In the confectionery busi
ness. It Is not known whether he
was successful In raising sufficient
funds for the purpose. If so we may
soon see another new industry locat
ed In one of the rooms votated by M.
Fanger.

BURKETT MO POSTMASTERS
It did not need the charges made
and evidence adduced by Franklin
A. Shotwell, state organizer of the
national league of Republican clubs,
to acquaint Nebraska people with the
fact that the postmasters of this
state are guilty of pernicious activ
ity in partisan politics.
It is a matter of common know
ledge that Postmaster Slzer of Lin
coln is general campaign manager
of Senator Burkett in his candidacy
for renomlnation and re-election.
It is equally a matter of common
konwledge that Postmaster Thomas
of Omaha is his trusted representa
tive In Omaha and Douglas county.
The people of nearly every city,
town and hamlet in Nebraska know
that their postmaster is the mainstay
of the Burkett organization in their
vicinity.
If it were not for the postmasters
and other federal employes, includ
ing revenue collectors, United States
attorney, marshal, inspectors and
others that magnificent personal ma
chine which is Senator Burkett's
most valued possession would be a
mere empty shell.
The orders of the president and the
civil service rules are made a mock
of In Nebraska. They are brazenly
flaunted, openly and cynically Ignor
ed. In some other states postmasters
who have Ignored these orders and
rules and taken an active, personal
part in party politics have been dis
missed from the service as they ought
to be. For the president to adopt
any other course, once the matter is
called to his attention and the proofs
are plain, is for him to convict him
self of insincerity. It remains to be
seen what course the president will
adopt when the disgraceful Nebraska
situation Is laid formally before him
In the charges which Mr. Shotwell
announces he will file.
In the interest of good government
and square dealing Populists and
Democrats in every town in Nebras
ka, as well as Insurgent Republicans
who have nothing but disgust for
Senator Burkett's methods, should
resist, from this day forward in col
lecting evidence of pernicious post
office activity and placing it at Mr.
Shotwell's disposal. It ought to be
determined, once and for all, if Pres
ident Taft meant what he said when
he promulgated the rule against post
masters turning their offices into po
litical headquarters in the interest of
some particular candidate or candi
dates. World-Herald.
