An Old Physician Discusses
the Disease.
IT IS THE REAL THING
In His Opinion MANY Are Inclined to
Believe Otherwise Butte
Safeguarded.

Doctors, ever prone to be far apart in
matters where unison of opinion is al
most necessary, have the peo-
pie of Butte we'll divided as regards
whether or not Butte's little epidemic of
small pox is the real article or not. Pub
lie opinion is about evenly divided as re-
CARDS this proposition, and if anything
there are more people who believe that
the Butte small pox is not small pox, thar
people who contend that Butte has just
gone up against the real thing. There are
plenty of physicians in the city, Who by
inuendO and ~insinuation. will poke fun at
the small poX scare. They will quote
what some fel.ow-medic has said but
they decline absolutely to allow their
names to be used or to allow theil opinion
to be aired with authority in the press in
regard to this matter.
"All this talk about there having been
no small pox in the city is rot said one
g~ray-haired physician to an Inter Noun
tain reporter today. II have passed
through two epidemics in the past, before
medical science thoroughly understood
the disease, and / believe I am qualified
to speak with authority. When l was a
young man l was surgeon in the army.
That was during the civil war. Small poX
broke out in my regiment-and the sol
diers went down like ripe wheat before
the cradle. 1t was terrible. Naturally,
because OF my official position in the rcgi-
ment. ! was in the thick of the disease,
and my experience during that terrible
ordeal OughttO qualify me to speak with
some authority. Then / went through an
epidemic of the disease in a northern city,
in a climate where the small pox microbe
fattens Il flourishes and has things it's
own way. I saw plenty of it there and
when these people tell you that we have
had no small pox. / want to say, that they
simply do not know what they are talk
ing about. The mildness of the disease in
Butte has demonstrated to me that small
beyond putting the victims to more or
less convenience, because, l should say,
of our peculiar climatic conditions, by
which the Inhabitants of the city, i'm
~pregnated with disinfectants in the shape
of the %sulphuric fumes,are safe guarded"
Another physician stated that he did
not believe there is a case in the city,
Why said he "if this had been small
pox he would have had one hundred cases
at the pest house now, and the authorities
would have been building houses for the
care of those who We're afflicted with the
disease. Every quarter of the city fur
nlshed it's victims. the quarantine was lax
and II it had been small pox it's spread
could not have been stopped in such a
snort time, and we would now have been
in the midst of an awful epidemic.

General Miles Views.

New York. Nov. 2S.-A special TO the
Herald from Washington says: Gen.
Miles, who has just returned from q long
south. said tonight:
The Notifications along the Pacific
coast and the gulf are in very good con-
dition. The engineers have don good
work. While the harbors are only partly
protected. it would not be safe for a hos
tile battleship or fleet to enter them TOW.
None of the harbors are completely for
titled. The four great harbors Of the Pa
cific coast at which defensive works are
being erected are Puget sound. the mouth
of the Columbia river. San Francisco II
San Diego. There are only enough artil-
leryists stationed on the coast to take
care OF the SunS-nOt o to man
them. The guns are great pieces Of ma
chinery and require very skilled artillery
lists to take care of them and to handle
them. More artillery is needed along The
entire coast of 1900 miles. including the
Atlantic Pacific and gulf. The garrisons
We're not sufficiently strong at the posts
! visited. This is due to the fact that most
OF the army is out of the country at pres
ent.
Congress authorized a regular army
65. 900 men and $35. 900 men for the existing
emergency. For a good many years l have
been in favor of one soldier for every LOCO
of our people. l think that So. coo should
be skilled in the modern art Of war and
the use of modern appliances. Tha would
be a very small number as compared with
other armies of the world. Vet sufficient
ly large to keep abreast of the improve
ments in warfare which are being made.
OF course the size of the army should be
to some extent commensurate with the
population II wealth and position of the
government. A country like Mexico would
not require an army as large as that Of
Germany or Russia. The United States is
nearly twice as large as Germany or
France and a small force of comparative
ly skilled. educated, trained soldiers
, would not only be wise and iudicious but
| would be in the interest of safe and good
administration. The best illustration Of
disregarding the necessity and the wei
fare of a nation in this respect is China.
which possesses the greatest population
and has been repeatedly whipped and
! overrun and placed under indemnity and
| in fact her very existence is threatened at
present simply because she has been q
nation of non-combatants.'

Market conditions for copper are very
similar to those prevailing for the past
week, excepting that a shade firlner tone
is noted. Holders seem inclined to
avoid anything which would be construed
as weakness, and apparently realize that
the market can only be kept steady by
an absolute refusal to offer the metal
down for the purpose Of catching orders.
Lake copper is quoted at INC. Electro
lytic on the surface is reported steady,
but on his grade negotiations, where an
important quantity is involved, might
result in some arrangement which would
insure better terms to the buyer than
those openly quoted Of 167s&17c. London

is obtainable at relatively cheap prices.
