El Paso daily herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1881-1901, 1898-12-03

Now that the board of health has
been revived, the citizens of Ell Paso
will look to them for assurance that
everything possible will be done to
avert an epidemic of smallpox. The
personnel of the board is all right, IL
the members will not attempt to shirk
responsibility or the work that may
be necessary for the present to attend
properly to the business of the depart
ment. The city physician under this
arrangement Is simply the agent OF
the board of health, and must execute
their orders. One Of the first matters
that should be taken up by the board
Is the smallpox, situation with
reference to the public schools. More
than four hundred children are absent
from the schools at present, for vari-
Gus reasons. Some of these absences
are undoubtedly caused by illness.
Some of them are doubtless due to the
children may be exposed to smallpox
There Is as yet small indication that
there is any danger of smallpox spread
ing in the schools. However, 1t may
be that some of the children absent
from schools really have smallpox in
their families, and II so the authorities
ought to know it. The first thing the
health board ought to undertake is a
canvass for the purpose of ascer-
tanning as nearly as possible
why these four or five hundred
children are kept away from school.
Especially in the Mexican school, this
would be a most valuable indicator of
the real estate of affairs. The various
teachers could give the names of alb
sent pupils and their residences to the
board, after noting down the facts al
ready known, and the board, assisted
by the teachers, scholars, and other
physicians, could investigate the
doubtful cases. 1t would almost GER
tsinly be found that many cases of con-
tagious disease exist which are quite
unknown to the authorities, and this in
itself would be great help, even if
the cases of smallpox discovered should
be few. Where suspicious cases are
found, they should be strictly qusran-
tined at once.

IT is almost certain that the regular
army establishment will be very great
ly increased by congress during the
coming short session. Whether the in
crease will be to seventy or one hundred
thousand men is OF course as yet
unknown, but no objection that can be
adduced by the opponents to this policy
can stand against the overwhelming
demand for such increase, One result
of this enlargement will doubtless be
the increase in the number of army

posts or the concentration of more
troops at those already existing. Most
of the troops of the regular army will
be used in garrison duty in our new
possessions for the next two years or
more, but after that 1t
will be possible to reduce the
garrisons in our overseas colonies.
Then the problem of providing home
stations for the troops will come to the
front. 1t is plain that no place within

Is Ell Paso First, the post is already
here, este blished at great expense by
the government but never utilized to
the full extent of its capacity; second,
Ell Pa-o is the largest city south Of
Denver and between Fort Worth and
Los Angeles; third, there are
seven different railroads centering
here, and troops can be shifted in
the shortest possible time to any part

Indian country; fourth. with the ex-
cellent transportation facilities Ell
Paso is one of the great commercial

headquarters for the supplies of many
surrounding posts. If the citizens of
this city can get together now, and
bring strong pressure to bear at Wash

will hold an excellent chance of hav-
ing the garrison at this post enlarged
to twelve companies or more.

What is the use of making better
article than your competitor If you
cannot get q better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will be
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
II both articles are brought promin-
emily before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgement on them
and use only the better one.
