DR.. RUGGLES' REPORT
CALIFORNIA BOARD OF HEALTH'S
PRESIDENT.
Recommends That all Persons Coming
from Hawaii to California Should
Undergo Physical Examination.

DIR. c. \. Rugglcs. president of the
California State Board of Health, who
visited the Islands few weeks ago,
and was taken by the National Board
Of Health to the settlement. has made
his report to the body of which he is
the head. In his report he seems TO
have embodied every fallacy and mis-
leading statement which has been
written or published on the subject in
the past years.
As the summing up of a very unset
entific report he recommends that all
persons coming from Hawaii to Cali
fornia should be subjected to a most
searching physical examination.
The character of his report may be
judged by the following:
THAT fact that prior to 1s49 there
was no leprosy in the Hawaiian Is
lands and that during that year it was
imported by two Chinese sailors, and
the further fact that for years there
have been upwards of 1000 cases of
the disease most all of the time proves
| beyond a doubt the communicability
| of the disease. 1t would seem that the
people of these Islands must he pecul-
! iarlv susceptible, but how this com
]
| itively settled, though the great pre-
ponderance of theory supports the
theory of inocculation. That the me-
dunn of communication is the bacillus
lepra, microscopic research has clear
! ly and positively proven. In one par
ticular case where a criminal was con-
demned to die he was allowed to
choose between the gallows and the
Il. l.,f, IL,
chose the latter. In two years the
disease fully developed and the third
year he died with positive case OF
leprosy. There is one lamentable con-
ditiOn connected with the disease:
that is, the variable and lengthy peri.
cd of incubation, extending in some
instances over period OF five years
That being an established fact, there
is no telling how many people walk
the streets of Honolulu affected with
leprosy. The authorities of the Ha.
waiian government agree that to eN
4 tinguish the malady they must resort
to very rigid and apparently harsh
measures. They must hunt down the
hidden ones and destroy all their sur
roundings. Then, must come complete
isolation and segregation, and strict
enforcing Of any intercourse between
friends or relatives and the afflicted.
AS to the protection of California
there is but one method that ! car
see and that is that every person com
ing from Hawaii, China and Japan
before being allowed TO land in Cali
! forna shall pass "A thorough and rigiC
examination by a competent officer
And I would suggest to your honor

the Marine hospital service be re
duested bv resolution of this boart
to cause to be exercised increased rig
idity of examination of passenger

eOEBEL AND TEMPERANCE.

The attitude of the religious bodies
at Greensboro, Shelbyville, and posi-
bly, some other places in the State,
toward the gubernatorial nominee OF
the Democratic party, Mr.. Goebel, does
not seem TO be well taken. In the first
place, the opposition seems to be based
entirely upon Mr.. Goebel's position on
the Roberts temperance bill, intro
duced in the last Legislature. He OPP
posed its adoption. But it is not
claimed that his opposition was based
upon his disbelief In the principle in
volved. In fact, allegations OF that
character could not have been set forth,
as it is a well known fact that Mr..
GOebel is a total Abstainer. and it is
natural to assume that he is believer
in the principles he practices. In view
of this fact ministers of the gospe
would not accuse him of favoring in
temperance or as opposing a movement
intended to control or abolish the liquol
traffic except from proper motives
They have not done so; they are no
