SOMETHING Of a sensation is created il

SOMETHING of a sensation is created in
reading circles bya contribution from the
pen of Chaunccy Depew charging Andy
johnson with complicity.in the assassina.
tion Of Abraham Lincoln in which lie as
serts that Gen. Grant had in his life time
whispered 10 him tho same story. With
all the bitter feeling that Andy johnson
as president aroused his most nvcterate e
enemies wonld agree that the man who
charges completely IN the murder OF I'm.
coin upon johnson is tie champion liar
Of the nation and age. and the one who
would quote Gen. Grant in corroboratien
of the story as the father of all liars. 1t
is little peculiar that Depew should
wait till Grant was dead before quoting
him in support Of the story and that he
should do so almost before the old war
hero was cold IN death. Gen. Grant scrv-
ed temporarily as secretary Of war under
JOhnson's administration and to say that
lie would he so associated with a man
whom he believed TO be IN the rcmo,cst
degree partlceps criminls in that crime is
the vilest sander That was ever uttered
against HIM. An ly johnson needs no
defense against sdch a charge, Gen.
Grant needs no disclaimer OF sympathy
IN the opinion, and Chaunccy Depew
need furnish no ether evidence of being
both a knave and fool.

The late legislature, among number
Of other good laws and perhaps n greater
number IF bad ones, created Il territorial
board of health and q subordinate board
for each county. Among the important
uul,cs Of these boards is that Of making
and enforcing necdful rules and regnla-
lions for preventing the spread Of con-
lagious or infectious diseases among peo-
pie or ANIMALS. TO this end they are em
powered to quarantine persons or ANIMALS
infested with conia4 io,ls disease and con-
,lcmn and kill animals so affected If in
their Judgment the public good may re-
u,,ire it. Under thus law only graduates
OF medical colleges are permitted tO rrac-
tire medicine or those who have been
Irac,,c,ng ten years and can pass txrmin-
alton by The ,cirltor,a board Of medical
examiners. No one is permitted TO prac-
tce who is not If good moral character,
nor any nne who ~ an habiiual drunk
ard. All violations Of this act are tie
clarpd 10 be mis,!emean0rs as are also at
,empts TO prevent the health officers from
performing their duty. This at, how
ever, does not affect established boards ol
health in cities and villages. THIS is a
good law and should receive the hearty
support Of the people.

that his enemy might write a book. The

on a book he had written. Any one who
has ever written a book and seen the
criticisms upon it will agree that hOils
