To rus EDITOR on THE NEws,

WEHPHECHI'b . lew REMARKS, Wnlcn are as
follows:
To THE EDITOR or THE NEWS;
SIR-From the day Of Fennor's discovery
until the present time we find n remarkable
progress made in the Advancement and devel-
opment Of his vaccination theory. At first
~ was tho grease OF the horse put through tho
cow, used as a prophylactic against the small
pox. When this was proven TO bo failure,
cow-pox alone was tried with the Same re-
suit. Then sheop'pox, horse-pox, goat.pox,
tion had its trial, but, II am not mistaken
reports show this 10 be a dangerous practice
resulting In leprosy, cancer and many other
horrible diseases. Then We find royaccina-
tion was decided upon and is at present said
20 be our saviour from this most awful di-
seaso OF the middle ages. But have my faith
somewhat shaken 10 ind the medical profes-
sion SO much at sea. Would it not be a good
plan, II re vaccination should prove TO be
wrong, to have RECOMMENDATION established
at the noNt trial. III this should also turn out
70 be false friend we could keep on and call
the next re- e-re-re.yaccination, then re-re. re.
ro-vaccination and so on until we reach n
point whore 10 would be by law compulsory
70 yaccinate every one daily or three times
day, ~ once day Is not enough.
Having read 50 much in later years OF re-
vaccination thought this idea might serve as
suggestion. and do hereby respectfully
submit 10 as handy for future use Very
New York. July IL. 1895. " '
We consider the above communication
valuable, not alone for its suggestion of
the opportunity that will ever be afforded
for adding on a "re, - but for the succint
summary 1t gives us OF the travel of the
vaccination idea.
We shall be interested to hear further
from any one on this subject, either one
side or the other, and we shall not pro-
claim any of our correspondents crank
whichever side OF what seems TO us O very
interesting controversy he or she may
take. We shall be glad TO make this
newspaper the clearing house for an inter-
change OF views on this as on all other
questions OF public import. For ourselves,
we shall remain impartial in the matter,
although we shall always be opposed to
vaccination, and shall exert
our infuenceiwith every successive Legis-
lature to have that law repealed. We do
not believe that our immunity from
smallpox is due to any such law. We do
not believe that the vaccinating of so, 600
school children could avail to accomplish
what is claimed when the other 800, 600
persons in the State are permitted to jostle
against one another without being com
pulsorily vaccinated. We don't like
paternal legislation OF any sort.

Washing Aug. 26.-Librarian
Spofford, in y Of the various con
ficting statements ~9rding the sum
of $22, 400 paid by him into the treas
ury last week, was asked today what
the amount really represented. He re-
piled that it was approximately the
amount due the treasury on the bal
ance of copyright and salary accounts
as he found it. An unfaVorable and
wholly wrong construction, he said,
had been placed upon it as representing
a large deficit, whereas, it was actually
a balance between the two accounts,
the salary account due the librarian for
several months, disbursements, and in
account due the government for several
months copyright fees. These accounts
had remained unsettled, although cOn-
slant payments had been made by him
to the number of 10 or II during 1891 and
1895 of copyright receipts, amounting
to over $4,000, besides the $22 400 now
deposited. He emphatically denied that
the recent payment was to make good
any wrongful withholding of Moneys
due the government.

emphasized by the display of several

greater part of the mob had been dis
persed, leaving only about 30 or 40 men
on guard, who soon left after the sher-
if arrived.
The bodies were taken down by Cor
oner Schofeld and Marshal Parks, who
removed them in wagon to the engine
house, where they were laid side by
side.
The coroner has summoned a jury
to hold an inquest.
Yreka is a little mining town, and
years ago was frequently the scene OF
mob violence. The summary manner
in which justice was melted out to the
four murderers this morning reminded
the pioneers Of similar scenes during
the gold excitement 40 years ago, when
it was not an uncommon spectacle to
awaken in the morning and see the
body OF a notorious criminal dangling
from a tree.
