will endeavor TO convince tho people
of Ncwhcrry that the whiskey people
in this contest arc the dispcnsury pee

better in the eyes of God or man than
if they were Keeping q barroom or

The Herald and News has given tho
Prohibitionists one column in one paper
a week TO advocate their cause. the only
condition being that they shall not advo-
cate the election Of any county candi-
dates. They can advocate measures and
the cause Of prohibition but as we do not
use the paper to boost any men in tho
county wo will not give the Prohibi-
uonists that right either. We have
preference when it comes TO men and
wo exercise it when it comes to voting
but we do not believe Il paper should
advocate individuals in Il family pri-
mary. And this is year we are 90
Ing to vote for men and not measures
men who arc able and competent.
If the dispcnsary people want to We
will give them all the room they want
on the same condition in Fridays
paper. it is our purpose to he entirely
fair and give full and free discussion to
the liquor question, ana us we favor
neither dispensary nor prohibition, wo
shall not be able to advocate either.
III there shou d be any chance for
high license, under dispensury rcgua-
tions, we shall look out for that end of
the line, but rs it looks to MS now the
fight on the liquor question this year is
going to be between the dispensary and
prohibition, and rs between these We
shall sit on the fence and vote for tho
best men on the State ticket according
as our judgment may dictate, regardless
OF their position on this question.
But we shall await developments.

yACCINATE.

1t should not now be necessary. to
urge upon our people the necessity and
Importance Of vaccination. fit had been
generally resorted to we might by this
time have had the small poX stamped
out in the town. The one mistake made
ing vaccination compulsory some two
months ago. 1t is a preventive and tho
only way to stamp it oat.
If it continues and lasts during the
summer, while it is Of a very mild type
now, next fall we may have malig-
nant type and it will not be so easily
handled. So rs to give no trouble we
hope the citizens generally may take
advantage OF the opportunity to be
voluntarily vaccinatcd that is given by
the board Of health until the 9th Of
June.
The public vaccinator, we under
stand, vaccinatcd about 1000 persons,
and 1t is estimated that the other phy-
sicians vaccinated about 800. This
would indicate that only about half our
people have been vaccinatcd.
1t is the duty Of every good citizen to
cooperate with the health officials in
any measures they may adopt for the
suppression OF the disease. TO sit
around and criticize will do no good.
TO take up and make current all ru-
mors that get in circulation on Occa-
sions like this will do no good. The
thing to do is TO go to work and help
tho health officers in their labors to
suppress the disease and prevent it's
spread. Encourage the citizens to be
Vacclnated and to report any case that
may be suspected and let it be invcsti-
gated. If you hear OF ease Of small
pox report it at once. DO not wait un-
TIL the patient is up and we'll and has
possibly circulated and sprcadcd the
disease, and then sit around and criti-
cize the health officer and the board for
not doing their duty. This is Il matter
In which We are all interested Just us
much rs the health officer or the board
of health, and we feel sure they are
anxious TO do their duty and stamp out
tho disease, and will bc glad to have
you furnish any information YOU may
have and to have You cooperate with
them.
At present there are only two cases
In town, and as far as possible all per-
sons who camo in contact with these
have been vaccinatGd and every pre-
caution taken to prevent II spread.
There Is no need for alarm on the sus-
pension Of any ordinary business or tic
EXERCISES Of the college. In many
towns thcrc arc great many more
cases IN proportion to the population
than in Ncwbcrry and YOU hear nothing
OF IT. People como and go us usual.
Tho papers say very little about it. In
small towns and communities there is
more or less talk, and We have given
tho facts and have not suppressed any
thing. And wo will continue to give
the facts just as they are.
Now rs to our friends in the country,
they should be vaccinutcd too. 1t is
just as important TO them as to those
who live in tho towns. Small pOX is
not conlined to the towns. In fact, I'm
this county we have had as many eases
from out OF town us in town.
