OF jackson md Harrison CouDiins,
Passed at the Last Session OF the

IN ACT more efieotually to protect the health
Of the citizens of the State.
Section l.. Be it enacted by the
Legislature Of the State of Missis.
sippi, That the board of supervisors
Of Harrison and Hancock court;ee,
be and hereby are authorized and
empowered, and the board Of super,
visors Of Jackson county be and is
hereby authorized and required to

and vacancies shall be illed by the
boards OF supervisors.
Sec. 2. Be it further enacted,
That it shall be the duty Of the re,
spective boards of health appointed
as aforesaid to select a physician to
act as quarantine physician and
health officer at all ports of the
State in their respective counties,
and TO establish a quarantine at said
ports, to commence at such time as
may be fixed upon by said boards
OF health, seyerally. and to continue
SO long az said boards may deem
necessary to prevent the introduce
ton OF contagious, infectious and
other diseases among the citizens of
the State.
See. 3. Be it further enacted,
That it shall be the duty OF the sew

WE would suggest to the boards
of supervisors Of Harrison and
Hancock counties The propriety and
Importance Of establishing boards
Of health for their respective couns
ties. The only safe way in which
to keep yellow fever out is by a
strict and systematic quarantine
along the whole coast between New
Orleans and Mobile. There should
lie a physician at Bay st. Louis,
Mississippi City and Biloxi, TO look
after the health of the citizens and
TO place in quarantine vessels from
Injected ports, thereby guarding
we'll all those points. We hope the
boards of supervisors Of these coun-
ties will act promptly in this mat
ter, as the season is lar advancing
and yellow fever is liable to be
brought in by vessels that trad
with those places. The board Of
health Of Jackson county has been
organized and has gone 10 work
zealously in this matter, The quar-
antine law went into effect on the
18th, and it is their determination
TO keep the fever out Of here at all
hazards and expense.

THIS week we hoist the name Of
Gen. Robert Lowry for governor.
We do so because we believe he
deserves the Office, is capable and
well qualified for the position, and,
so far as we can judge from the
to1c OF the press, is the choice OF
a majority of the people Of the
State. We know he is solid in
this scctioa, and believe he is the
coming man.

Dr.. W. G. AUSTIN passed through
here last Wednesday on his way
back to New Orleans. He had a
consultation with the board of
health Of Mobile, and was assured
Of their hearty cooperation in
quarantine regulations. With such
gentlemen as DR.. Austin to watch
the gulf coast there is little or no
apprehension that yellow fever will
clip in upon us ills season.

THE FOURTH SESSION OF THE CONFERENCE
THE TURKISH PROPOSALS.
CoSsTANT1NorLE, January AT the
fourth session OF the conference yesterday
Mr.. Salisbury expressed the views of the
pelnipotcntiaries upon the Turkish counter
proposal The points upon which Turkey
refuses to negotiate are: Local gendarmerie
(policing) with foreign participation; the
Question of international commission and
the extension of the Seryian frontier. An
swering whether this declaration was tanta-
mount to the absolute result, the Turkish
delegates replied: "They must refer it to
the Porte. The Porte will give definite
reply Thursday"
Mr.. Salisbury. visited the Grand
Vizier after the conference. The Turkish
delegates to the conference have not only
declared that they cannot discuss certain
points of the proposals made by the Pow
ers, but their contemporaries differ COM
pletely from the scheme agreed upon by the
Observation-Disclosures. 1t is stated that General
Ignatief, one OF Russia's plenipotentiaries,
has declared that he cannot discuss the
Turkish proposals, and in this he is sup
ported by the other plenipotentiaries.
