CANNING FACTORY's
WORK FOR 1898.
Over 100000 Paid Out at Home

The Canning company has fnished
packing tomatoes for the season Of 1888.
The season has been q successful one;
Rocky Ford being entitled to the dis
tinction Of having packed more tomatoes
for the season of 1888 than any other fac.
tory west Of the Missouri river, or with
possibly one exception, more than any
other factory west Of the Mississippi.
There were used 776,O9l pounds Of to.
matoes for which our farmers will get

from the beginning Of tomato season ul
TO Oct. Is, s2,264.34, making sum total
Of s5,174.69 paid out by the company
right at home and to home people in 9
period Of about GO days.
The total expense to the company oi

cans, etc., was s10,088 .65.
The value Of the product at present
wholesale prices is $12,625.80, which

VACCINATION OF
SCHOOL CHILDREN.
Strong Reasons why the Unyaccinated
Should Net be Depnivsd Of
School Privileges.

To the Editor OF the Enterprise:
Following the example set in some
neighboring cities and towns, the Rocky
Ford school board has adopted Q rule
requiring vaccination a. q condition Of
admission TO the public schools. And
several instances have come under my
observation where children have been
sent hume. before or after entering
school, because they had failed to mess
this condition. I have not seen OF
heard Of any statute, as part Of the
school law. bearing especially on this
subject, but I should not deny that
each school board has the legal right 10
enforce such . rule, under the general
authority conferred by law on the school
trustees, ITO make such bylaws for their
own government, and for the govern.
ment Of the public schools under their
charge, as they may deem expedient".
The question that I raise 10 not, then,
one Of legal authority, but one Of exped-
iency. Is it expedient, wise, best for the
general school interests. that the govern
ing board should declare that all who
come seeking admission as pupils in the
schools, but failing to bear the creden-
tials Of vaccination, shall be deprived oi
the benefits OF our state educational sys-
tenn? think not. And for the follow.
ing reasons. SO SD
There is no special or peculiar danger
at this time from smallpox. There is no
epidemic Of smallpox anywhere, and no
more than the usual number Of sporadic
cases in Colorado. However, il small
pox were present today in Rocky Ford,
the only difference, il any, between the
vaccinated aud unvaccinated children,
stricken with the disease, would be
found in the relative virulence OF the at
tack upon the latter. This is all. 1t
would affect themselves, it may be
granted, more seriously than the former.
But the unvaccinated child does not now,
and never will, carry contagion into the
school from which the school would be
exempt were he shut out. Ths most
that is claimed for vaccination is that it
will render less baleful upon those prac:.
ticing it the effects of what ls admitted
to be a dread disease, not that it will
stop the spread of this disease, nor make
the contagion less affective among others.
And so, let those who wish to do SO,
practice it upon themselves and their
children. But let them not try to i'm
pose it upon others. Some of us have
had experiences which do, and should

BY an ,nexcusable oversight most

BY an lnexcusable oversight most
important omission occurred in the En-
terprise report OF the recent hunting
trip of Messrs. Z. J. Smith and II. l.
Maxwell. Tom, the cook, reported six
antelope killed during the three days alb
sence. In an effort to explain why only
four antelope were brought to town Tom
says that the party ate the other two in
camp. Such consumption of fresh meat
indicates that the dry air of the north
ern plains is productive OF remarkable
appetitcs.
The periodic star shower, which is
seen at intervals OF 33la years, is due
Nov. II or IL, 1879. On the same dates
this year, also, Il considerable display OF
these meteors is expected. They are
supposed to consist of matter which is
cold until rendered incandescent by fric-
ton with the carth's atmosphere.

Lee Sends a Report.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 14.-United
States Consul General Lee has reported
to the state department from Havana
the facts connected with the rioting
there. While the state department off,
cials do not divuige the text of the dis
patch, it is said that 1t corroborates
generally the newspaper reports on the
subject. According to General Lees re-
port, the disturbance had been quelled
for the time being, but he was appre-
hensive of another outbreak at any mo-
ment.
General Lee did not ask to have a
warship sent to Havana and. in the
opinion Of the state department Off
cials. that is a sufficient reason for the
assumption that there is no occasion for
at once sending one.
