OF DIR. NJ. II. Leyerson, NJ. D., as fol-

For many years have devoted my
self 10 the study Of pathology OF vac
cination, Before that l was in the
state OF "sleepy acqulescence" in
which many OF my professional
brethren are today. But the facts are
too startling TO admit OF any more
lethargy on the subject.
Vaccination is supposed TO be pre-
ventlye against smallpox. That's why
our soldiers were yaccinated, Virus Is
no protection against typhoid or the
other fevers which were to be guarded
against.
Our army was the pick OF the land;
the flower, OF youth. Men were re-
jected right and left. Never had
such strict enforcement OF physical
health been exercised. Men in the
condition OF health do not wither
away and die OF malaria fever In a

IL is not hard TO find. The men

Two privates In the Twelfth New
York at Chickamauga were com

on account OF blood poisoning from
vaccination.
Two men from the Fifth California
had their arms amputated, the result
OF vaccination. And those are only
isolated cases OF hundreds.
What Is vacInatlon? 10 is the

What did we expect these men to
do? Face typhoid fever, dysentery,

trenches filled with water, scaldlng
rains, everything under the sun that
was dlsadvantageOus, with systems
alive with cowpox, debllltated with
the Nth OF impure aulmal blood.
Healthy men can stand hardships.
I've stood some myself. know what
endurance means. But you can't
expect meu who ought TO be sick abed
with cowpox TO endure the hardships
OF a Cuban campaign.

There are two new laws which are
not generally understood. One Is for
the payment OF per diem and expeu-
ses OF rejected volunteers Of the
Spanish American war and the other
is for the repayment OF funds adYan-
ced by persons to promote the exhibit
at the Omaha Exposition. Only
rejected volunteers who were members
Of the Oregon National Guard will
yet pay and they will not get their
pay until the Adjutant General
complies a list OF ALL those who were
rejected aud files such list in the
auditing department Of the state
government. For the Omaha expo
sltion promoters they will not get
their money TIL after January 18TH
1898, when the law for their payment
takes effect. Persons having claims
must die them with the Omaha
Commission which will meet and
audit them In due time after IL get s
its money from the State. Rejected
volunteers should file their claims
with Adjutant-General Tuttle.
II has been suggested that the state
militia ought TO be speedily recruited
and drilled ready for another brush
with Spain. The state will be taxed
$4,000, the same next year as the
present, for the support OF the state
militia, and II should be recruited up

THE NEW LAWS
Enacted at the Special Session o

Reviewed in the Oregon State Journal by
Carey +. Martin; a Young Salem
Lawyer.

There are two laws enacted by the
recent legislation aiming at the rail-
road commission. One law took
effect October IS, 1893. The other
would have gone into effect three
months from the close Of the session
or on January 10, 1899, Every time
the railroad commission has gone into
the courts II has been successful and
IL lis possible that the legislature
acted wisely 10 making two laws for
the abolition OF the commission for II
might be able 10 knock out one law.

The new school law defining the
qualifications OF voters at school meet
ings aud elections Is not understood by
many. Men and women can vote but
they must have been assessed by the
assessor when he was around the year
before and the assessors roll must
show that the man or woman had at
least 500 worth OF property. This
doesn't apply TO the country districts
where the Inhabitants number one
thousand or less, In those districts

not have any property may still vote

One OF the important new laws is
the mining law. IL goes into effect
according To the term OF the emer-

three Gays after posting the notice he
shall put up six substantial corner
posts or monuments not less than
three feet high being one post at
each corner and one In the middle OF

law has several interesting details
and among other things provides
that a contract for "grubStaking" is
no good unless In writing aud re-
