Armour Herald: Diptherla made its
appearance in the family OF the post
master at Trip last Thursday, and Fri
day the mail was sent from that office as
usual but on Saturday the railroad com
pany instructed their agent at Trip to
refuse to receive the mail from that
Office thereby preventing the further
spread OF the disease from that source.
As soon as it WAS learned in Armour
that there was danger Of the disease
spreading from that source the county
board OF health served notice on the
Armour postofiice %forbidding the post
master receiving the Trip mail, so that
as far as this locality was concerned,
Trip postoffice would have been quar-
antined had not the railroad company
acted. Conductor Beardsley informed
us that from DR.. Fox OF Trlpp he learned
that there has been about sixty cases in
that locality. The people there are
nearly all German Russians who do not
believe the disease is contagious and
disregard all quarantine regulations.
1t is probable the action of the railroad
company in refusing to handle the Trip
mail may result IN the state board Of
health taking energetic measures to
enforce rigid quarantine regulations.

"If the United States does not act.

just as well abandon the Nicaragua
canal forever. Spain is not the only
nation interested in crushing the Cuban
patriots. England, too, has a hand in

putting down the rebellion, the Gulf of

plains that in consideration of Eng.

England. On the same authority it is
said the Cubans will issue 500, 600, OOO
