HOOPER THE NOMINEE Tennessee ' Republicans Name Ben ', W, Hooper, Of Newport, to Oppose i Patterson for Governorship Alf Taylor the Only Other Candidate -The Platform. ,; ' Nashville,' Tenn., Aug. 16. Capt. Benjamin ' W. ' Hooper of Newport, Cocke county, was this afternoon nominated for Governor of Tennes see by the Republican State conven tlon which assembled here at noon today. The name of Alfred A. Tay lor of . Washington county was the only other one presented to the con ventlon and immediately following the announcement of the result of the first ballot the nomination was made unanimous. The ballot stood. Hooper. 382, 9-14; Taylor 201,5-14. The convention also endorsed the. candidacy of B. A. Enloe, independ ent man, for Railroad Commissioner from west Tennessee. ine independent state-wide pro hibition Democrats who have fought Governor M. R. Patterson every step of his official career are expected to support the ticket nominated today as against the regular Democratic nominees, which includes Patterson for re-election, and the coming cam paign promises to be one of vigor and bitterness. THE PLATFORM ADOPTED. The platform adopted today de clares for no backward step in the prohibition laws which were passed over the veto of Governor Patterson and asserts that the State should be re-dlstricted as regards congression al, judicial and legislative districts. It says that, the present system of districting is nothing less than lar ceny of the elective franchise." The platform also favors continuance of liberal Federal appropriations for Federal soldiers, also for Confeder ate soldiers. Captain Hooper, was the chief leader of the independent State wide prohibition factions of the Democratic party which recently e lected their candidates for State ju dicial office. It is said that the same combination will be in effect ir. the coming gubernatorial campaign and that the independent State-wid ers were deeply interested in today's proceedings. Hooper was also the final selection of the Sanders-Evans- Sharpe element of the Republicans. Captain Hooper is 39 years old and a native of Cocke county. He was graduated from Carson and Newman College with first honors and served two terms in the State Legislature. He was assistant Unit ed States attorney of the east Ten nessee district and served as captain in the Fourth Tennessee Regiment during the war with Spain. He has been successful in financial affairs and is said to be a man of large means. YORK AND YORKVILLE. The Enquirer, 16th. M l8aes Mamie Pearson and Nettie Bradley, of Gastonia, N.

Of course, everybody was thrilled with the soul stirring air; but all remained silent for a moment when the venerable Elijah McSwaln reminded them of their remlsness by giving a lusty hurrah, and asking in a reproachful tone, "Why don't you hurrah for Dixie?" ' While nobody felt that they had failed to appreci ate Dixie as they ought, still Chair- man Blair took occasion to call for I Dixie" again later in the day, and I the crowd gave a cheer -that fully satisfied gallant old Confederate Mc Swaln.

" 1 . . Our Health Department, The Victory of Vaccination Tha. Battle With Smallpox. " lilS T1CIOI7 VI KICUVI buib. ,. 1 . m MMfHMMA .... m m T iuit thrnns-h vftrMnatlon la one Of they greatest sanitary victories ever won. ; Jenner, the discoverer of this meth-. od of prevention, is considered hr many authorities the greatest bene factor of the race that ever lived. Lord Macaulay, in his History of Engjand, describing the disease lit . England before vaccination, wrote: "That disease, over which science has achieved a succession of gloriousr ana oenpnceni victories, was intv most terrible of all ministers of. ( death. The smallpox was alwaysi present, filling the churchyards with corpses, tormenting with constant, fear all whom It bad not yet strick en, leaving on those whose lives It spared the hideous traces of its pow- er, turning the babe Into a change- . ling at which the mother shuddered, . and making the eyes and cheeks of Sk betrothed maiden objects of horror to the lover." In the latter part of the eighteenth century and the early part of the nineteenth century one-tenth of all deaths In civilized countries resulted. from this disease. Ninety-five per cent of the population of Europe had the disease at some period of their lives. Every year in Europe 400,000 deaths were caused by this "pesta magna. Some countries have taken ad vantage of this great discovery; oth ers have not had the faith in this. truth necessary to save. It may he interesting to observe the effect of smallpox where vaccination is com pulsory and where it is only option al. Between 1870 and 1874, in three years, an epidemic of this dis ease in Austria and Prussia caused ' the death of 162,000 Austrians and 172,000 Prussians. Prussia, profit ing by her dreadful experience, pass ed a compulsory vaccination law; Austria did not. Prussia, with av. population 8,000,000 greater than Austria, lost, in the next twenty yearB 8,500 people from this disease, while Austria during the same time lost 239,000. Another demonstration of the sav ing power of vaccination is seen inv the French and German armies in the great war between these countries. The French army, had not enforced compulsory vaccination; the German army had, and the German soldiers were all vaccinated. " Result: : Th French army lOBt over 25,000 sold iers from smallpox; the German., army, although holding the French, prisoners and living with them, lost, only 350 from the, disease. Still another demonstration of ther protection afforded by , vaccination lev seen when we compare the annual death rates per million population in countries with compulsory vaccina tion and those without compulsory vaccination. Compulsory vaccination: Ger many, 1.1; Denmark, 0.5; Sweden, 2.J; Norway, 0.6. Noncompulsory vaccination: Bel gium, 99.9; Russia, 46.3; Spain, 56.- 3;, Hungary, 134.4. In this connection it Is well to raw . member that it is not claimed that ' vaccination will always prevent . . smallpox. It furnishes a protection equal to that of having had the dls- - ease; but a few people will have thfc disease twite. , - The Socialists of Guilford county have put out a full legislative and? county ticket. . . ...
