GRAFTON OF the great "nebulous" journals.
The confident manner in which Dr. r
M. Swearingcn. State health officer, dis
cussed the yellow fever situation last
night with Post representative must
prove reassuring to the people Of Houston
and all Texas. While The Post has con
tended all along that there is little IL any
danger Of visitation OF the scourge to
Texas. II has not hesitated to urge tho
utmost precaution. and the prompt action
Of both State and city authorities in tho
institution Of preventive measures IL to DO
highly commended. And Tho Post feels
perfectly secure In assuring the people Of
Houston and Of Texas than danger In that
direction is extremely remote. and thai
there is no cause for any alarm.
In this connection The Post would like
to say a word 10 certain sensatlonallsts
who are engaged In circulating harmful
rtrrnors cnp,e ~ tbasa ro,,ort, ba,,a ~ Ill.
origin in remarks made by thoughtless
people who never calculate the harm they
may do but there are Others who appar-
emily engage in this business through pure
cussodncss. Tho Post you'd kindly nd-
monlsh the former to be more careful and
thoughtfuk but fer the latter there is no
term OF condemnation too severe. They
should be apprchended and punished and
tho FUN penalty for malicious mischief
mctcd out 10 them. Such practices are
criminal In the extreme, and those guilty
OF them are criminals Quit starting ru-
mors-and quit lying.
