In view of the fact that IN sever
al parts of the State public schools
have been porarily closed on
account of the occurrence Of dip
liberia and the fact that in some 10
calities typhoid feyor has been very
bad, the report of DIR. Chancellor
to the State board of health merits
more than ordinary attention. Dr.
Chancellor says that the outbreaks
of typhoid fever and diphtheria IN
Maryland during the last six weeks
have been both frequent and severe,
and there are at this time at least
twenty centres of infection in the
State, most of which he has been able
to trace to some local sanitary de-
fects that could be easily corrected
if proper effort were made. 1t is
urged upon all communities to take
the matter promptly in hand for
the prevention of typhoid fever and
diphtheria, but also to be on the
guard against an outbreak OF small
pox, which the secretary of the
State board of health considers it
to be greatly apprehended. This
disease, DIR. Chancellor says, is in
other cities, and unless commune
ties and individuals can be induced
to avail themselves of the protec-
tive power of vaccination, it will be
next to impossible to prevent an ep-
idemic outbreak of the disease. The
law on this subject is plain and ex-
picit. 1t makes it the duty of eve
ry parent and guardian to have
children under their care vacclnated.
The law also provides for the ex-
pense; it authorizes the distribution
of pure vaccine matter and requires
physicians and teachers to give at
ten ton to he matter. The recon-
mendatious are timely and should
receive all the attention their i'm
portance requires.

called to order by Presidence Force, OF

Delegate ]. F. Tillman, secretary of the

the people of Indianapolis for their warm
welcome, and continued; 1T is the farm

seeking to disrupt partisan political par

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 19.-Taken as a
whole, the alliance has not been very
successful in preserving the secrecy OF It's
proceedings. But ono point i'll yester.

an early hour this morning. That point
was he committal of the supreme coun

came about through the adoption OF a
resolution offered by Jerry Simpson, in
structing the alliance members OF the
congress not to enter party cacuses.
Col. Livingstone, of Georgia. protested
against its adoption, saying he was
elected as democrat and proposed to
act with that party whether the alliance
liked it ornot.

THOSE OIL COMPLAINTS.
THE CAUSE CANNOT HE DI-
VINED.

c. H. Hopkins, the Agent of the
Baltimore United Oil Company,
TelIs" "The Citizen" That He Cam
not Find the Cause of the Flood
Of had Oil-The People Pay the
Tax.
With the hope Of learning something
definite about the bad oil which for the
last few weeks has been causing almost
universal complaint in Asheville, THE
CITIZEN this morning called on c. H.
Hopkins, at his office near the freight
depot.
Mr.. Hopkins is the agent for the Balti-
more United Oil company in Asheville.
which supplies this city with the bulk of
the oil used.
Mr.. Hopkins said that the complaints
were fist made against stock put in the
tanks during September! A fresh tank
was put in on October 20, and since that
time he has put in four tanks of the
same grade of oil. which, he said, is $50
fire test.
The oil comes from the refinery in Bal
timore. As soon as the complaints
began coming in. Mr.. Hopkins says, he
reported the matter to headquarters
He has never received any communica-
ton making any explanation of the
probable cause of the unsatisfactory
quality of the OIL
Mr.. Hopkins says practically the same
complaints have been made against oil
all over the state. They were made at
Charlotte, which city is supplied by the
Vacuum Oil company. the oil coming
from the Cleveland refinery. In all cases
the complaints are that the oil after
burning short while. gives out" aud
seems watery. giving little or no light.
The company's yards here have tank
capacity of 26 900 gallons. The average
sales in the city per month amount to
about 10000 gallons, Every barrel,
Mr.. Hopkins saws, is guaranteed, and
will be taken back if the oil does not
prove satisfactory.
The trouble must be at the refinery"
concluded Mr. Hopkins. 81 cannot say
what it is, but believe that if the cause
can he ascertained that defect will be
renee d."
Mr.. Hopkins also said that the COM
plants had been fewer during the past
week or two.

his steady and wonderful stride he reach
cd the half mile post in l:03h
Then the eager watchers, who hoped
the horse would not be carried Of
his feet by the tremendous pace, saw him
pass the three-quarter pole in l;36la.
and never was a finish watched with
@ eater anxiety. On came Palo Alto
with the same sweeping strides, which
he held until he had passed under the
wire, when he INDUCED his bounding am
btion by little fight in the air, after
setting the stallion record mark at
20Sh.
Palo Alto is a bay horse, nine years
old, bred and owned by Hon. Leland
Stanford. His sire was Elcctionecr. and
