IS CHOLERA CaRGlNs I?
Probabilities Of a Visitation Of thI
Rsiatic SCourge.
lptere.tiag interview With Well Known
Physician What Council Should
Do in the Premises,

A REGISTER reporter called on DR..
James T. Reeves, Secretary of the State
Board of Health, yesterday evening for his
opinion Of the danger of visitation OF
Asiatic cholera in this country this year.
He iound the Doctor at his Office on Chap,
line street, Centre Wheeling, intently en-
gagged in looking through the tubes of his
ne and powerful microscope at the tuber
Gle bacillus, a very minute organism Or
parasite which infests the lungs in tubercu-
lar phthisis, or consumption, and may be
conveyed from one person to another in
endless multiplication by incubation. In
other words: that pulmonary consump,
uon is
.. A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE.
Cur reporter began his interview by ask
ing If there had not also been recently dis
covered the specific germ Of cholera-the
chOiera bacillus.
Yes" sand the Doctor, and expect to
have the sorowful opportunity very soon of
studying the characteristics of that organ
ism in the same manner that have become
familiar with the bacillus Of consumption"
Then Won fear an early visitation of
cholera in this country-prObably this
year.?
YES if it be true that genuine Asiatic
cholera now exists in France, there is no
absolute security from the scourge in the
United States. Cholera anywhere in Eu-
rope means immediate danger to this coun-
try-especially the seaboard cities"
Should your fears be realized, what
would be the probability of the disease
REACHING wHEELINGY
"A sufficient answer to your question
would be the reminder of past visitations of
cholera in Wheeling, when facilities for
Nravel and rapid transit Of both persons and
FOODS were far less perfect than Of to-day.
\ wise policy of the city fathers should at
once inaugurate reform in the health de-
partment-compcl the abatement of all
nuisances prciudicial to the public health
Give the people clean streets and alleys;
after that, open air concerts would appear
in far better grace.
why cant the State Board Of Health
exercise its powers and come to the help
of the city,
For the reason that it cannot take con
,rol Of municipality in which there exists
a health department. The State Board can
.nly act in such cases when
APPEALED TO FOR HELP
by the municipal board or department; For,
tanately, the authority to establish and
maintain quarantine is lodged with the State
Board of Health and its agents, and the cX-
crciSe OF this power may be the means of
safety 10 the whole State. The counties are
well provided for 10y their local boards of
health. AS an example of The effectiveness
of this important arm Of the State Board Of
Health, the smallpox visitation Of Mercer
and Wyoming counties last year may be
pointed to with thanktuincSS and with pride.
Should cholera come into West Virginia,
the county boards, under the advice of the
State Board, would show even greater use
rulness. Meanwhile let us put our houses
in order for the coming pestilence.

He accordingly telegraphed Elmiston at
