Barlow Courier In tOrmdnt: There has
been considerable talk about the young
man, Mr.. Mcpherson, who spent night
last week at the Carpenter house, on ac-
count of his having come from Jackson
vile. He had spent the requisite time at
Camp Perry and had certificate from DR..
Guiteras after that he went to Waycross
ctat ay,I I,,I ~. oil f,,,., 30,
and certificate to that effect, so there could
be no danger, and no hotel or health board
officer could properly refuse to admit him.
Sanford Journal: The action of the
Orange country board of health, in quaran-
timing against all points out of the county,
and forbidding the arrival Of trains into
the county, is simply outrageous, as through
freights can be brought into the county
without the least degree Of danger. Our
citizens are highly and properly indignant
about the matter, and demand modifica-
ton of the quarantine so that freight may
be brought into the town and into the
county. They do not propose TO be starved
out just yet, when there is no cause for
such action on the part of the board. So
far as the incoming of passen-
gers is concerned, the action of the
board meets with our approval, but pro-
visions must be allowed to enter.
Orlando Reporter: The board of health
has adopted a regulation prohibiting any
passenger car passing through any infected
place, or any passenger travelling by such
car, coming into this county. That regula
tion will be all right, provided it can be
enforced, but that cannot be done unless the
board sends man to go out and come i'll on
every train leaving and coming into the
county. We are in favor, for the next
twenty days or longer, of an ABSOLUTE quar-
anti1e and TO allow no passenger trains to
run in or through Orange county. The
time has arrived for prompt and decisive
measures. Orange county must not have a
case of even sporadic fever. o re case would
cost the unity untold thousands of dollars
and the absolute condemnation by the
entire people of the board Of health.
Orlando Reporter: The board Of health
has adopted the following regulation, a copy
