' Health Officer Doty says there Is no

been established at th- home of Cushing's
widow and four children.
In the opinion of Mr. Doty. Cushing con
tracted the disease from a cholera carrier,
as there had been no recognized case of
cholera on Hoffman Inland for seventeen
days prior to his leaving there. As soon
as the fimt case occurred among passen

Doty instituted a search for Cushing and
learned he was in the hospital.
A deputy health pfficer examined Cush

Now the state has declined to take the
bonds at so low a rate, and no private
capital sems willing to be risked on the
proposition. The board has determined to
go ahead and advertise for bids on the
bonds now that they have been registered,
but the prospects of selling them are scant

In Its history. ' H
"Second, that at that election there were
enough loyal democrats, notwithstanding
the betrayal by the Man who had been
Its leader, to elect a majority of democrats
to each house of the legislature.
"Third, that that majority In the legis
lature passed laws fulfilling every platform
pledge of the party, and consistently sup
ported and voted for measures In tho In
terest of the state and Its people.
"Fourth, that In spits of that betrayal
