Jackson County Quarantine.

Our representative, Col. ..ssse19ee, has
introduced into the House a bill providing
for an appropriation OF $4,000 for the bet
ter maintenance of an effective quarantine
system at our port. This is an import
ant bill, for the protection Of our State
from epidemics OF yellow fever, cholera
and the like are largely dependent upon
an efficient supervision against infected
vessels coming into our harbor. To do this
properly requires the expenditure Of con-
siderable sum of money, and, while the
county has quarantine tax, 1t is but just,
as beneftting and protecting the people OF
the entire State, that our Legislature
should appropriate the sum which is ask
ed for by our Representative, upon request
Of our County Board of Health. The Sec
retary OF the Board, Mr.. j. w. Stewart,
has furnished Col. McRae an estimate OF
the least possible expense attached to
keeping up an effective quarantine, and
this amount il bnt barely covered by the
sum named in the bill. 1t is to be hoped
the Legislature will recognize the para
mount importance OF the health Of our
State, and that there will be no objection
