where milk that has stood a short
time in the presence of persona sick
with typhoid fever, or been handled
by persons fully recovering from the
smallpox, spread these diseases as eff
fectually as If the persons themselves
had been present. Scarlatina, measles
and other contagious diseases have
been spread in the same way.

CRY FOR HELP.
Square.Toed Arguments ny Potosian In Regard
to Distribation Of the Bridge Fund.

THE HERALD:-The heavy rains and
floods have played havoc with many of
the fords and bridges, and travel in
some directions is entirely stopped until
repairs can be made. Kavenaugh's
ford across Platte just below the old
Banfil saw-mill, we learn, is now inn
passable on account of the steep bank
on the west side and the great depth of
water. This is very unfortunate for
our town and greatly embarrasses the
many good farmers who are now living
in the southern part of the town of
Harrison and northern part of Paris.
These farmers have been accustomed to
come here to do their trading to buy
lumber, to mill. and to church. to the river
and railroad and for hundred other
purposes and now it is impossible for
them to reach here withouta days jour
ney over rough roads around by Likens'
bridge. Something ought to be done
III thio mdtoci duu ihob SoiuCuuihS uc-
wolves upon the board of county super
visors. This is an old established road
and an important east and west thor
oughfare through the county, requiring
bridge which will not cost less than
$4,000. The town of Harrison. where
in it lies, is too poor to build it and
ought not to be compelled to rs other
towns and distant parts of the county,
are equally interested in it, as much so
as in the Wilcox bridge at Waterloo,
the Porter bridge at Beetown, the Flora
Fountain bridge or any other important
road work in the county.
The county road and bridge fund that
is annually raised and parcelled out in
$50 and 800 dribs to be squandered by
the irresponsible road overseers of the
several towns should be brought back
and reserved for its original and legi-
innate purpose, viz. raising heavy
grades over bottom lands and building
bridges over large streams, such as are
demanded by the public at large and
which arestoo expensive for the minor
towns to accomplish. 1t is thirty years
or more since the public interest de-
manded bridge at Kavenaugh's ford
and another at Briggs old ferry. both
of which ought to have boon built long
since out of this fund, which now only
serves as bone of contention among
the chairmen of the various towns
who snap and snarl at each other and
only look complacent when they have
secured large share of this spoil.
Please give this subject an airing before
the next annual meeting of the county
board. Let us either repeal this now
useless law which imposes an onerous
tax or make it subserve the purpose for
which it was enacted. 5.
