A METEOROLOGICAL CASE.

The anti-vaccination case now pending at
Terre Haute involves some interesting and
important questions, both medical and legal.
The is test one. and involves the
constitutionalty Of the act Of 1891, estab-
fishing a State Board of Health and de-
filming its powers and duties. The law ere
ates a State Board of Health consisting
OF four members to be appointed by the
Governor. Secretary of State and Auditor
of State and also provides for the organ
ization of county boards and city boards
In every county, city and town of the State,
which shall act under rules prescribed by
the State board The latter Is authorized
to adopt rules and bylaws to prevent out
breaks and the spread of contagious and
infectious diseases" Under this authorize
ton the board has promulgated rule for
the compulsory vaccination of children in
the public schools to prevent the spread of
smallpox. This rule has excited the wrath
of the ADMINISTRATION League Of the State,
and hence the present suit, in which the
father of a child excluded from school for
noncompliance with the vaccination rule
brings suit against the teacher and the
school trustees to test their right to en-
force such a rule. The law is attacked on
medical and constitutional lines. First, it
is contended that vaccination is not only not
preventive Of smallpox, but is a means
of communicating other diseases; and sec
ond, that it is an infringement on the con-
stitutional rights of those who do not be-
lieve in vaccination to compel them to
adopt a practice which they believe is IN
furious and dangerous
There is no doubt of the right of the
State, under it's police powers, TO legislate
for the public health. This right is rec
ognized and exercised in all civilized coun-
tries Many of the Northern States have
laws similar 10 the one in this State, and
they are found of great value In the pres
ervation of the public health and the COM
pilation of sanitary and vital statistics. In
some States the Legislature has provided
| by statute for the exclusion from school
| OF persons not vaccinated. although other
wise entitled to admission. This is so in
Maine and Massachusetts. The Supreme
Court of California has held that the Leg
islature had right TO require pupils OF
| the public schools TO be vaccinated. and
| II the Legislature can do so a board TO
whom it has delegated its power in this
regard can do the same In England AL

THE VOICE OF BUSINESS MEN

Why do papers which publish in their
the commercial bodies Of the North, the
South, the East and the West are pro-
testing against the approval Of the seign-
forage bill keep on asserting in their edi-
torial columns that Wall street and the
traders in money are all the people who
are demanding a veto? Do not the editor
ial writers read the news columns, or do
they ignore statements of fact? The truth
is that the great body of business men are
in favor of sound currency. Years ago
it might have been different, but now all
business men, as a rule, while they may
have conflicting views on other subjects.
are unit in favor of a currency of sta
BILE rather than fuctuating value. They are
unalterably opposed to a currency whose
purchasing power varies from day to day
or from week to week. was the case
during the war and at periods prior to
specie resumption. In the West are thou
sands of men and women who own stocks
in loan associations, policies in life insur-
ance companies and pensions for life. None
of these are anxious to be paid in dol
lars which have but a portion of their pur-
chasing power. The intelligent wage
Garner who is paid in dollars as good as
| gold cannot, when he considers the matter,
desire to change to dollars which. when
| he goes to the market, will purchase but
| two-thirds as much as the gold dollar in
which the values Of all staples is meas
ured.
At the present time the question of
sound and stable currency is not one of
| politics, and it should not be. True, a linn
| tied number of men who cannot or will not
| learn Of experience are in favor of any
| sort of cheap money because it is cheap,
| but their number is limited. The great
mass of men are creditors. The man who
sells weeks wages to be paid at the
weeks end is a creditor, and as such he
should have the good sense to demand the
| best sort of dollars.
| But the point the Journal would enforce
is that the great mass of business men
of the country in every part of it, are
in favor of the present sound system Of
money and are opposed to any policy with
silver which may force the country to a
single silver basis like Mexico.

AN UNANswERABLE ARGUMENT.

the United States, except for mining and
quarrying have at last been given to the
public. It is asserted that since the Demo-
Gratis have had control the experts employed
TO compile the statistics have been virtually
ordered by Democratic officials to alter
their figures This stopped when Colonel
Wright, of the Bureau of Statistics, took
charge of the work. This bulletin shows
that in 1890 the average number of employees
in the manufacturing industries Of the coun-
try was 4.711.Ss2, to whom was paid as

children are required by law to be vac
cinated within three months after birth,
and this has been the law for forty years.
The penalty Of noncompliance is imprison-
ment as well as fine. Similar laws exist
in most European countries, many OF them
making the certificate of vaccination an
essential to entering school at the age
of six years. After that no person can
with government. such as military duty,
teaching or nursing, without producing his
certificate of vaccination. 1t is also a pre-
requisite to the issuing of a marriage IL
cense. These facts show that all civilized
states claim and exercise the right to Leg
islate on this subject.
There does not seem to be anything in
the contention that it is an infringement
of constitutional rights to require children
in the public schools to be vacclnated. The
safety of the State is supreme law, and
when the State decides that certain meas
ures are necessary to preserve the public
health or prevent the spread Of disease
it is not for individuals t. set up their pri-
vate opinions and prejudices against the
enforcement of laws enacted for the COM
mon veal The law creating the State
Board of Health and giving 1t power to
make regulations to prevent the spread
OF contagious diseases may possibly be un-
wise, though the Journal does not by any
means think so, but 1t certainly is not
unconstitutional. If the ADMINISTRATIONS
can get majority in the Legislature they.
can repeal the law, or If they can convert
a majority of the members of the State
board to their way of thinking they can
do away with the compulsory vaccination
Of schoolchildren. but until they can do one
or the other of these things they had bet
ter submit gracefully to the law.
The other line of attack upon the law
opens up the dangerous field of a medical
quarrel, which layman should hesitate
to enter. The Journal, however, will ven
ture to remark that some of the testimony
adduced in this suit as to the inefficacy
or danger of vaccination seems to be en-
tirely beside the point, and some of 1t
ridiculous. 1t is not to the point to prove
that other diseases may be and sometimes
| are communicated by vaccination. Every
body knows that. But the use of impure
| vaccine is not true vaccination. The ques-
| ton is whether true vaccination with pure
| vaccine is or is not a preventive of small
| pox in large majority of cases. Many
| surgical operations result in death, and the
| best efforts of physicians often fail, but
| that is no argument against surgery or
| medicine. If vaccination is a preventive
| Of smallpox in majority of cases Of ex-
| posture to the disease it's efficacy is estab-
| lished. One of the witnesses introduced by
| the anti-vaccinationIsts testified that six
| years after he was vaccinated he became af-
| flcted with a runnino sore. 1t would hard
| ly be fair to hold vaccination responsible
| for all the lis that subsequently befall
| those on whom 1t has been practiced. Ev-
| erybody who is vaccinated eventually dies,
but it does not follow that vaccination al
| ways causes death.
