to make an accurate statement of the
lumber cut Of Oregon and Washington
for 1892. Lumberman are often careless
Indifferent or opposed to allowing their
outputs to be published even when used
only in making up the total cuts for a

In 1891 the cut Of the Tacoma mills
mounted to 1854 $50 1925 feet of lumber,
in 1892 it reached only Id ,O10,00).
Take this in connection with reports
received from Washington and Oregon,
it is Il fair statement to make that the
decrease in last years cut over that Of
1891 is in about the same proportion. A

The mir under the bed covers Immediately

ceeslingiy impure. becoming more and moro
impregnated with poisonous substances es-
Gaping through the excretory glands OF the
skin from the moment the person retires
until lie arises. The odlor Of the bedcloth-
ing, after having been occupied for nignt'
is often positively offensive to the nostrils
Of a person with an unimpaired sense OF

from outdoors, where the fresh, pure air

The poisonous character OF this under the
bedclothes air would be somewhat more
likely to affect the susceptible constitution
of a child than that Of IN adult when sleep-
ing together. In elderly persons the
amount Of the impurities in the air sur
rounding the sleeper must be greater than
in young persons consequently. while 10th
persons would be more or less injured, the
proportion Of harm would doubtless be
greater to the young person than to the
person of more advanced years. Mr.. Treves,
Of the London hospital, has called attention
to the fact that wounds, especially OF the
lower lin,ls. heal much sooner when Kept
exposed to the open air instead Ct being
covered by ictlclothing He remarks that
the mir under the bedclothing is foul and
almost hot, and hence likely to be very
harmful to wounds with which it may
come in contact.

SMALLPOX.

Since the alleged breaking ont of
smallpox in Hoquiam, the people OF
Aberdeen have begun to feel warm per-
sonal interest in the traits and peculiari.
ties OF the disease, and are inquiring how
much OF the danger associated with its
dread name is real and how much imag-
mary. The Encyclopedias Britannica, in,
the course Of Its treatise on the disease,
says: Smallpox is an acute infectious
disease characterized by fever and bv the
appearance on the surface OF the body OF
all eruption. which, after passing through,
varions stages, cries up leaving more or
less distinct cicatIizes. The only known
factor in the origin OF the disease is
contagion.-this malady being probably
the most contagious Of all diseases. The
disease is probably communicable from
its earliest manifestations onward to lite
close, but it is generally held that the
most infectious period extends from the
appearance Of the eruption till the drying
up Of the pustules. No age is exempt
from susceptibility to smallpox. Infants
are occasionally born with the eruption
or its marks upon their bodies, proving
that they had undergone the diseas,.
ut nfe'0. One attack of smallpox as a
rule conters immunity from any recur.
renee, but there are numerous exceptions
to this rule. Various circumstances af-
feet morality in ordinary smallpox and
increase the dangers attendant upon it.
The character Of the epidemic has an i'm
portant influence. In some outbreaks
the type of the disease is much more
severe than in others, and the mortality
consequently greater. Smallpox is most
fatal at the extremes of life, except in
the case Of vAct:inated infants, in whom
Their. IL immunity from disease. Persons
OF enfeebled health and those whose
constitutions are impaired by in
temperance, reality succumb to attacks
Of smallpox, even Of compara'ivel
mild character as do also pregnant
women, to whom this disease
is peculiarly dangerous. During
the first decade OF life, if vaccination ha.
been successfully accomplished in in
fancy, the risk OF death from smallpox
is NIL; but should the disease be caught
which is improbable-it will in all likeli.
hood show itself in the mild form Of
varioloid. AS regards re-vaccination, it
has been found in all smallpox hospitals
that the attendants and nurses escaped
the disease when re-vaccinated. In the
experience of the late DR.. Waller Lewis
in the case of an average of 1854 per-
sons employed IN the General Post Office,
London, all of whom had to be re-vaccin-
atsd on admission. it was proved that in
the ten years. 1879 70, not a single fatal
case Of smallpox occur ed, and only ten
mild cases were seen during a period |
embracing two epidem:cs.

Judge IRWIN, last week, filed a decision
in tine case of Chel,alis county vs.. I'M
known in which Ed Campbell, owner
II certain lots in Hoquia,n, against which
judgment had been obtained and an order
# sale issued for delinquent taxes, ap.
piled for an order to have tle judgment
yet aside. The petition OF the plaintiff
WAS granted, on the ground that the law
providing for the collection of delinquent
taxes for the year 1892, specifically de-
clares all liens against property for taxes
OF that year ceases on the first day of No.
vember, 1892; consequently all sales
after that date are void. In his decision
the Judge says:
ut is difficult to see through the mazcs
OF the present revenue laws Of this state,
but when all the acts are examined and
compared it certainly appears that the
lien of all taxes assessed for the year 1890
Expired OH the first day of November,
1892. except where the lands had been
sold for the tax prior to that dated, and
yet the procedure prescribed for col.
lecting the tax is such that it was almost
impossible to effect sale until after that
late. The consequences is that the liens
ior the delinquent taxes of 1899 have
been lost aud the taxes for that year
must be collected, il ut all, by some other
proceeding than by foreclosure of the
lien,
