South.
| City Health Officer DR.. II. Rutherford
had Just read from some newspaper an ar
| ticle in advocacy OF National quarantine
system as a reporter for The Post encoun-
tered him yesterday.
| These newspapers don't know what they
are talking about" said the doctor. when
they advocate a National quarantine.
The constitution OF the United States
guarantees to each State the right to pro-
tect itself in Its own way when threatened
with contagious or infectious disease. and
this constitutional right can not be abro-
gated without first changing the constitu-
| ton.
This matter has already been twice be-
fore the supreme court with decision each
time that each State is supreme in the mat
ter OF its quarantine regulations.
| National quarantine Is today conducted.
is far as it can be, through what Is known
as the United States marine hospital SER
| vice. The agents of this service nave been
| very assiduous in doing their duty In the
way Of promulgatlng reports that are iniu-
rious to his section OF the country, simply
because they know it is susceptible to I'M
portalon of the yellow fever germ.
Their reports OF late will show with
what zeal these agents Of the Murine hos
pital service have been at work The en-
tire service in It's relation to the South
seems to be operated upon the plan Of IA
court organized to convict. and their reports
are given credence simply because they are
made under a quasi National authority.
Before charging man with crime the
first hing to be looked for is the motive
that may have actuated the criminal.
Whatever may be the motive prompting
the operation of this so-called marine hos
pital service, l am glad to say thai they
! were not entirely successful in their a..
| tempt last year 10 break down the rapidly
growing commercial interests of the South
and have so far this year made but small
progress with their suspicious cases.
| with these facts before us. and these
| yellow fever spoilers throughout the
| South. there must be some lever behind
| it all ether than the protection Of the
health of the people,
THAT Dr. Guiteras was a fraud in his
! pretended exposition OF yellow fever in the
South particularly at Galveston and Hous-
ton can not be doubted by any rational or
| ccnversant medical man. His prophesies
have all come to uaught, as the fever has
not appeared in Houston and Galveston this
year in a more malignant type than last
I year and this Us what he said would be
the case as verification of his diagnosis
Of the sickness with which We were
troubled last season.
with all the marine hospital spoilers
this year, they have established but one
suspicious case in Texas. and everybody
/ who expressed an opinion confirmatory Of
| lis being case of yellow fever would now
be only too glad IL they could retract It.
