THE HERALD stands for cleauliue,

THE HERALD stands for cleanliness.
We are always to be found advocat-
ing filling up the pest holes and clean
ing up the city. 1t also stands for
truth; II there is contagious disease in
the city the readers OF the HERALD
will be kept informed. And IL there
is no cause for undue alarm, amount
ing to panic, on the part of parents,
the HERALD will say so. We favor
compulsory vaccination. We believe
the city physician has been remiss in
his duty in this direction. We be-
lieve the mayor ought long ago to have
instructed the city physician to vac
cinate especially all the people in the
Mexican quarter OF the
city. The city physician is
supposed to care for the public
health, and in so doing he mus. go to
his patients, and must not expect them
to come to him. And we are in favor
OF reasonable care at all times. Every
child ought to be vaccinated as otter as
the effect of previous incubation
wears off, But the scare that has been
raised over the few cases of smallpox
that have appeared in this city is
foolish and unwsrranted, and likely to
cause great harm.

SUPPOSE the war department should

would proceed to establish a most rigid
press censorship. 1t would order q
court martial for some innocent per-
son, shoulder the blame on him, and
prohibit criticisms on its course by the
public press. Finally, it would order
General Miles or Col. Roosevelt to
commit suicide. Doesn't it seem odd
to contemplate these things in connec-
ton with our own country? And yet it
seems that France is not above it. But
read the following clipping:
With the French sense of fitness q
bull-fght was gotten up recently for

crowded into the bull ring, and after
waiting for an hour and half were in
formed that the managers of the en-
tertainment had disappeared with the
entrance money and that the bullfigh'-
ers would not fight until they were
paid. The spectators thereupon began
to tear down the wood work of the
building and set il on fire. and there
was panic in which women and chill
dren were trampled under foot.

with ammunition and rstions, but
thanks to Chamberlain q Collie, Cholera

to keep at work and keep our health:
in fact. | sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way Of getting sup.
plies to the front. There were no roads
that wagon train could use. My COM

to lay in supply of this medicine for
