EIONTREAL'S EPIDEMIC.
The Pullman Car Company Charged
with Introducing SmaII-Pox.

charged. put some suspicion on the Pullman
Car company. 1t appears from the infor-
nation received from the carriers and others
that soon after Langley's case became
known the Pullman car people claimed they
had fumigated Langley's car and burned
the blankets and linen thoroughly in Mon
treal, excepting a quantity of blankets and
snail mattresses, which they stored in a
building near Bonaventure depot. Soon
after this the Pullman official. who had
charge of their uphOlstering here. invited
the master carriers of the CITY to inspect a
lot of blankets and other articles that he
had for sale. and which he offered at ex-
ceedingly low prices. He made many sales
and

were sported by large number of the local
lll6lI DuDilC lldChS anu carriages.
The questions are being quietly discussed
here: Why did the Pullman Car company
dispose of some hundreds of blankets at
that particular time in Montreal? Were
those blankets disinfected? and may they
not have been the means of carrying the in
fection, lying as they did all summer i'm the
hands of many of the carriers, whose homes
were lily ventilated? 1t is a well-known
fact that the Pullman car conductors who
run between Chicago and Montreal have
always two and sometimes three, four and
even five cars under their charge, all of
which might convey the infection. How
many persons, then, is it possible have
caught the smallpox from these very
blankets? Is the Pullman Car company
constructively liable for the outbreaks?
These questions are being discussed here,
and the matter will be further investigated.
10 all this the Pullman people enter an en-
phatic denial, and say it is not possible the
disease could have been started here through
any agency of theirs.

Enforcing Municipal Prohibition.

CosHocToN, u, Aug. ~, 'S6.
II. 8, ThoNPscN-Dear Sir. Sec. IL of
the Dow law provides for the prohibition
of the saloon IN municipality by action
of council, but provides no penalty for vio.
lation Of such . proliibitory ordinance.
How shall we proceed against a salounist
who defies such an ordinance? Can you
give us any light through the columns of
the Eiuf Yours, ETC.,
s. B, CAsTuN.
AEswEA.-tn this tunnection 1t 10 well
to again explain the difference between
local option and the council option ica-
ture Of the Dow law.
A local option law is a prolnbitory
law, forbidding the ofense, making its own
specifications of manner OF proceeding
against the offenders and declaring the
penalties for its violation. The difference
between local option law and y general
prohibitory statute is that the operation of
the local option is suspended, as it were,
until ratified and adopted by the people Of
any locality. AS soon as the people Of any
locality ratify, by vote, local upton
law, then il becomes operative and In full
force in that locality with all its details Of
enforcement, and pains and penalties Iur
violation.
The Dow law il not a local option law
in any sense of the word. It does not pro-
hibit, and therefore cannot provide any
penalties for its violation. This is why we
keep reminding opr readers that il is in
correct to talk about reinforcing the local
features of the Dow law" The Dow law
lin this respccD does not prohibit anything,
and therefore cannot be enforced.
The Dow law permits municipalities to
pass a prohibitory ordinance. An election
has nothing TO do with ii, and any election
is only means Of ascertaining the wishes
of the people. Council, by it's ACTION. does
not bring into operation law already in
existence, but must mske prohibitory law
in full, with specifications for enforcement
and penalties for violation.
The council has the same power to en-
force an ordinance prohibiting the saloons
that il has to enforce any other ordinance
it can make the penalties for violation
what il pleases, aud make what provision
il desires for the enforcement OF the law.

Shall an Attempt be Made to Pro
mote the Business Interests OF
Perrysburg by Public Means.

EDITOR JOURNAL 1T is stated that
the Northwestern Ohio Natural Gas
Co.," intend crossing the river with
their main pipes at this point for the
purpose of supplying Toledo with gas
for fuel. In the accomplishment of this
work it is quite probable that few of
the eminent capitalists who are the
leading stock holders, may visit this
village, and become acquainted with the
fine natural advantages which it offers
for the development of business enter
prises. That, however, will avail noth=
ing by way of securing gas from them
for use here, as the citizens of Toledo,
to whom they are under special obliga-
tions will require every cubic foot they
can supply.
Our chance to attract their interests
by an investment of capital, will be
to demonstrate that we can supply them
or other parties, with gas developed
from the strata underneath us. In view
of this and the urgent need which ex-
lists to do something by which to pro-
mote business here, the question pre-,
sents itself Is it not desirable to as
certain if gas can be obtained by
promptly boring well at the pub
lie expense With the improved facil-
tiles that are now afforded in boring
there is no doubt contract could be
made for a well of 1900 or 1900 feet
depth at a cost of So, 900.
The experiment is certainly worth
trying, and should it prove successful,
of which there is ample reason for the
opinion, 1t would be a boom
to business enterprise, to the
employment of labor, and the enhance.
ment of values in village property, that
will benefit all classes of citixens, and
thus accomplish that, of which for
quarter of century, we have all been
dreaming. By all means let the coun.
oil take prompt action, is the opinion of
