four days, or $500, for alleged services
given by herself as nurse, and $3.50
per day for sixty-four days. or $l6O, for
her daughter which were not necessary
for single day after Mr.. Viereck's
death, or after the quarantine was es-
tablished. Another nurse, man from
Whatcom, was engaged by DR.. Wright
at 81 per day, and he remained there
for thirty days without, as we are in
formed, being required to perform the
least service. There were three cases
of small pox in the house during his
stay, but not one of the patients was
confined to his bed for a day. They
say they were not supplied with any
medicines whatever and they natural
ly consider themselves extremely for
tunate that they were not so i'll as to
require any. The editor of this paper
knows the circumstances of their mis-
fortune and the resulting incOnven-
fence and expense to the whole neigh
borhood so well that he feels justified
In making this allusion to few of the
facts, not with any intention of offer
ing advice to the commissioners, but
simply to give the public a little idea
of some of the perplexities that are inn
posed upon them. The bills already
filed for real and imaginary services in
connection with the ''scare" amount to
SRl7.O5.

THE ISLANDER has frequently urged
the organization of fruit growers as
ISOLATION in this county and we are
pleased to note that the matter is be-
ginning to receive some consideration
among the leading orchardists of Orcas.
Under proper organization and man.
agement such an association could not
fail to be of great benefit to the fruit
industry of this county, as such organ
izations have been to the vast fruit IN
terests of California. The best prices
would be obtained for fruit properly
graded and packed and the association
would be able to accomplish much
more than individuals i'm securing low
freight rates and careful handling IN
shipment and at points of destination.

TT is announced that the British
government has ordered reduction in
the pay allowances of the "common"
soldiers. The pay was very small be-
fore and its reduction at this time when
the army is meeting with serious re-
verses in South Africa Is regarded as
indicating that the government be-
lieves war against the Beers will be a
long one. Perhaps the government
also believes that however serious the
reverses may he the ranks of the army
can be recruited from those of her
majesty's subjects who are ever ready
to fight for "the honor of England"
1t must be bit discouraging to "Tom-
my Atkins" though to have his pay
reduced i'm the face of the enemy.
