STRINGENT
MEASURES
To Prevent The Introduction
Of Smallpox Into COL
OradO
HAVE BEEN ADOPTED
Board of Health Announces That
the $50 Cases Last Year We're
Directly TraCedble to the Lax
Quarantine Methods OF New
Mexico.


The Colorado board of health has
taken active steps to prevent the i'm
portation of smallpox into that state
from New Mexico this. winter
The board has been Investigating the
origin of the epidemic of last year
anil he secretary, DIR. George E.
Tyler, announces that $50 cases of the
malady in this state were directly tre-
ceable to lax quarantine methods OF
the New Mexican authorities, says the
Denver Post.
DR.. Tyler stated today that while
the disease is raging worse than for
ties of New Mexico, Colorado is alb
sclutely free from it, and will continue
to be, sunless the territorial health Of
ticers violate the rigid system of isola-
ton that is now in effect, and allow
smallpox patients to escape into this
state.
Today Secretary Tyler received q
very encouraging letter from Governor
Otero, of New Mexico, stating his will
ingness to keep the disease from gain
ing q Roadway here. 1t was written in
to him by the board last week asking
him to take up the matter at once.
Governor Otero says:
ST have just returned from trip to
Chicago and have your letter of the
18th instant regarding smallpox in our
territory, and have this day written
letter to the chairman OF the board
of county commissioners of both Ber-
nalillo county, where Albuquerque is
situated, and Colfax county, where
Cstski1 is situated, asking them to
make report to me regarding the
number of cases of smallpox in their
respective places cited in your letter.
You can rest assured that l will do
everything in my power to see that the
law ia rigidly enforced in this matter,
and am obliged to you for bringing
to my attention. l have also address
sed q communication to the superinten-
dent of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe railroad company, asking for any
ing this disease along his road. We
had considerable trouble last winter
with smallpox, and 1 am determined to
use every effort possible to prevent the
spreading of it this WINTER
The health board las been dealing
lately with serious diphtheria epide-
mics at Rocky Ford, Mauzanols, Lit
tleton and Elyris. That at Rocky
Ford was q particularly severe one,
and many deaths occurred before the
was checked.
Reports received this morning from
Bill OF the local health boards indicate
that the disease is under control, and
that no further cases are anticipat-
ed.
The health of Color ado people at the
present time has not been better for
years, says DR.. Tyler. There are less
han hundred cases of contsg ious
diseases in the whole state outside of
Denver, the state boards records show,
and the mortality from this class of
naladies has been lower during the
past few months than for five years.
The board will meet the fret week |
n November anG take up the move
nent against tuberculosis. DIR. Tyler |
will not divulge the plans of the board |
q this matter, but says that he is con-
ident the remedy will be effective in
the spread of the disease
here.

Quick Action Awarded by the
Company.

Some time ago a brakeman on the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad used his

days later Engineer John Hagarty was
oiling his engine at Gainesville, while
waiting for the passengers to ali ght.
He heard another train coming and
believing 1t WAS not under proper con-
troll he sprang into his cab. opened the
throttle and started his train. The 9TH
er engine struck the rear car, but it
was not hard blow, aud Hagsrty's

COUNTY REFORM.

Brief Synopsis of the Provisions of the Re
Gently Enacted Law.
The bill providing for so called county
reform has passed, and upon procla-
nation of the governor that the acts of
the Legislature of 1899 are in force will
be the law of the state. The bill, as ii
finally passed, differs in few particu-
lars from the bill as originally intro
duced, but the differences are slight
In the new form, fewer cOuncilmen are
provided for, so that instead of one for
each township there will be but seven
in each county.
1t will be the duty of the county COM
missoness, as soon as the law is in
force, to meet and divide the county in
to four districts. In doing so no town
ship can be divided. The circuit judge
will then appoint councilman from
each district and three at large TO serve
until their successors are elected in
1900. Councilman shall receive 80 per
annum for their services.
A councilman must be a freebooter
and cannot hold any Other Office. Va
cancles must be filled by the council,
and the councilman so appointed ehall
serve the remainder of the term for
which his pI edecessor was chosen. The
county auditor is the clerk of the coun.

Independent Employs MT. Creswell


The Independent has engaged the
services of Mr.. John Stanley Creswell
as associate editor and business repre-
sentative Mr.. Creswell has been EN-
pIoyed by the Indiana Novelty Manu-
featuring company, severing his con-
nection there Thursday at noon. While
there his faithful adherence to his
duties won for him the admir- alton of
his employers and fellow employees.
Since it has become known at the fac
tory that Mr.. Creswell was to be en-
ployed on the Independent, just l26 of
his fellow employees subscribed for the
Daily, paying for same from one TO
three month in advance With this
additional list of Novelty men as sub
scribers to the Daily Independent, we
are safe in saying that there are no
more than a dozen employees of that
factory who are not regular readers of
the Daily Independent.
Mr.. Creswell is not employed to sup
plant anyone heretofore emplOyeu.
The proprietor is convinced that the
growing popularity of the Independent
justifes an additional man on the force
The salaries now paid out by the In
dependent aggregate $4,000 per year,
certainly a worthy institution for the
city of Plymouth. This is a matter
that business men should consider
when called upon for patronage and
show their appreciation accordingly
If we add TO the $1,000 the living ex-
penses OF the proprietor, we have fair
estimate of the actual amount of
money disbursed for labor toy the indie
pendent annually, employment being
given SIX people regularl. and to the
carrier boys in addition.
Mr.. Ores we'll is business
man himself all the way through
and from his pile of recon-.
mendstions, it is certain that he can be
relied upon and what he says he will

DRU MMOND AND REPORTER FIGHT.


Routine of the Afternoon interrupted by
Sensational Incident.
The opening of the senate session
Thursday aflernOnnwas marked by the
uncommon incident of a democratic
senator AID the representative of the
democratic organ coming TO blows be
fore the whole senate. Senator Drum
mond early in the day took exception
to the account of the previous nights
session as printed in the democratic Or
gan, and denounced the writer publicly.
AS soon as the senate was called to
order Senator DrummOnd walked over
TO where the reporter was sitting, and,
leaning over him, said: al have al
ways heard you were coward and
now l know it," The reporter prompt
ly resented the remark by striking
Senator Drummond's face, and before
other blows could BIZ struck Senator
Wood jumped bet ween the cnmbatants,
while other senators crowded around,
and in a few minutes order was re-
stored.
The lieutenant governor denounced
the affair as unseemly and appointed
Senators Nushaum, LEIGH and lubbell
as committee TO investigate the
trouble. The latter declined to serve
and Senator Charles took his place
In about an hour the committee re-
pr rted, asking that the reporter make a
full apology to the senate, which the
latter did after stating his case and the
causes leading up to the trouble, in the
course of viii n be saw fit to go out of
his way to savageiy assall the senator

turn excOrlated the reporter, Harry

one and was the occasion of much re-
greet to all who witnessed it. Senator
Shea moved to not accept the apology,
however, and expel the reporter, which
| was done with but one dissenting vote.

The proposed amendment TO the
constitution of the United States to
exclude polyamy from the United
States reads as follows: "Article
10th. Section 1. Polygamy shall
never exist within the United States
or any place subject to their juris-
diction. Section 2. Congress shall
have power to make all needful
laws to enforce this article and pun
ish its violation" That amendment
ought to be adopted with as little
delay as possible. 1t would solve
the problem of polygamy com
pletely.

County Reform Bin Signed.

Governor Mount Friday signed the
county reform bill. He raised the OBJ

perhaps both the county and township
reform bills created too many offices
but he was in sympathy with the prin-

made it clear that his objections were
not urgent.

Conference of Virginia Demo-
Gratis Ask for Primary or
= State Convention.

RicnaoSp, VA, May 1.-The conference
OF virginia democrats here yesterday, to
devise means whereby sentiment in favor
of the election Of United States senator
by direct vote of the people might be
strengthened, was largely attended. and
productive Of results which are expected
to be powerfully effective in the accom-
plishmeut Of the great eud desired.
The conference declared for the popular
election OF senators. 1t also declared for
the selection of senatorial candidates by
means Of a legalized primary, aud resolved
TO ask the State Committee, to call a State
convention at once, or order a primary
election, for the purpose Of choosing a
candidate for the Senate.
1t was resolved that in case the State
Committee refused to ACT, the committee
appointed to present the request Of the
conference should call upon the Demo-
Gratis of every county in Virginia to nom
mate no man for the Legislature not un-
equivocally in favor Of the principles
enunciated by the conference.
Finally, the conference voted TO create
an organization TO he known as n Demo-
cratic League for Reform in the Election
of United States senators. 1t was voted
TO create AN Executive Committee of
twenty, to be appointed by the chairman
of the conference, this committee to
di ect the work of the league. The league
is 70 he composed of the Democrats Of
Virginia, and efforts are to he made to Sc
the cooperation Of Democrats in
states.
1t is the general sentiment Of those who
cOmoose the conference, and have its
most closely at heart, that the
body took the wisest course towards at
its object. Those who favor the
nomination of a candidate by the confer
ence think the body stopped short Of the
performance of its whole duty. These
in a very great minority.
The body was in every way representa-
i've. Eighty-three of the one hundred
of the State sent delegates. Only
.wo cities-Danville aud Petersburg
we're unrepresented. Every congressional
district had a fair representation. Some
represented very fully. Some
of the far Southwest sent several
delegates. Tazewell and Russell each had
tx good men present. Lee, which is quite I
