We think it the part of wisdom for a
committee to be appointed in every

after this so that every white man can

Smallpox ut Gold Creek.

There is no longer any doubt that
smallpox has broken out at Gold
Creek. We base this statement upon
information received Thursday night
from DR.. II. Mattlry, OF Davenport
Iowa, who got in from there Thurs
day afternoon. In an interview the
DIR. gave US the following inrorma.
ton:
There WIS a dance at Mountain
City over two weeks ago, which was
attended by nearly every body in
that country. At this dance was a
sheep nan from Idaho who was in
the first stages OF the disease. just
two weeks from the time OF the dance
Mn. Hugh Martin and George Nell
son were taken sick with what prov
eel to be well developed cases OF
smallpox OF n mild type. DR.. Mat.
TRY being i'll that country was called
to see the sick people. He saw Mrs.
Martin six days after che had begun
to break out. He pronounced it a
case of smallpox and %quarantiued
the patient. He also vaccinated the
people in that country. Nelson ID also
quarantiued. The DIR. advised the
people to be very careful and use
every measure in their power to pre-
vent the spread of the disease. This
he said was cheerfully promised by
all. The quarantine already estab-
lished is voluntary on the part Of the
patients.
DIR. Mattlry intimated that the mat
ter should be taken in hand by the
authorities and a strict quarantine
established. While nothing more
serious than a spread Of the disease
would result from the Gold Creek
cases, he thought effective measures
should be taken to control it and
stamp 1t out. He remarked that a
mild form Of the disease was preva-
lent throughout the country and the
physicians Of the east feared it would
assume a o virulent form and be-
come epidemic rs soon rs cold wealth
er set in.
DIR. Hood was informed this morn.
ing OF the condition OF affairs al Gold
Creek as told by DR.. Mattlry and he
will lay the situation before the State
Board of Health.
DIR. Mattlry is a member OF the
State Board of Henlth of Iowa. His
conversation was that OF a skilled
physician who knew what he wal
talking about. 1t is certainly fortu.
nate for the Gold Greek people that
he happened to be in their midst.
The INDEPEDENr knows that the re
are people in Elko who will not be-
lieve DR.. Mattlry and who will ndi.
Guile the idea OF there being any
smallpox at Gold Creek. They will
call the disease Manila itch or some.
thing else that they know nothing
about. The INDEPENDENT, however,
prefers to believe the statement OF
the skilled physician who saw the
patients and has no interest in the
matter further than the public gooo.

Needy Woman Assisted.

Mr.. j. E. Enright and five young
children, three boys and two girls, ar.
rived here on No. 3 last night. Mn.
Enright was in n destitute condition
and applied to Commissioners Trous-
dale for assistance. She gave her
destination rs Lovelock and tickets
to that place were purchased for her
self and children. They left on No.
8 this morning.
Mrs. Enright came from Hunting
ton, Indiana. which place she left to
join her mother Mt Price, Utah. When
she arrived at the latter place she
found that her mother had left and
was living at Lovelock. Charitable
people OF Price made up n purse for
Mrs. Enright, but the money sufTiced
only to bring her here, where she and
the five little children we're put Off
the train last night.-Silver State.
1t is hardly the proper thing, per-
haps, to call this woman n fraud OF
the first water, but she has all the
earmarks Of that kind OF a person.
Monday afternoon she and her oldest
daughter came to the INDEPENDENT
Office and asked for m interview. We
granted the request and this was the
story che told: She was an Odd Fell
lows widow who had left her home at
Huntington, Indiana, to visit her
mother and brother at Fruita, Colo.
RADIO. Arriving there she found that
they had left Il few days before for
Battle Mountain, Nevada. She con.
cluded to follow them and stepped
into tho ticket Office to buy n ticket
and n half for Battle Mountain.
While she was buying the tick
etc, the conductor OF the train
came in and told her that she must
buy two tickets. Not having money
enough to pay for two tickets to Bat
tic Mountain, che bought tickets MS
far ~ her money would go, which nc.
cording to her story was Terrace or
Deeth. From there che wis assisted
to Elko. We listened to her story
aud took her 10 Mr.. Bruce's store
and introduced her TO Mr.. Grover to
WHOM she told the same story. Mr.,
Grover then took her to Mr.. Bruce's
house and introduced her to Mr.,
Bruce who has charge OF all cases OF
transients applying to tho Odd Fol.
lows for relief. She told the game
story to MIR. Bruce and gave her
name ms Mrs. j. f.. Enright OF Hunt.

that her mothor's namo was Mrs, Ann
White and her brothers name John
White who lived about four miles out
from Battle Mountain. Mr.. Bruce
and Mr.. Grover acting together "a

bill and bought her tickets to
Baltic Mountain.
Her story waa considered rathor

It was better to assist mn impos.

OUR KINsMEN. THE BoERs.

There Is \ Tie Between Them and Our
Country's Early Settlers.
Reminded necessarily Of their kin
ship with the English, Americans are
not often asked to remember their kim
ship with the Beers. And yet the tie
is a close one. The Boer is a trans
planted Dutchman, and the influence
OF Holland in shaping the destiny OF
this country is ranked by historians as
second only to that of Great Britain.
In contemplating the Transvaal war
it is well not to forget what the Dutch
did for America. The Pilgrim Faith
ers, having been driven out OF England.
found a refuge in Holland, until they
sailed for the New World. Holland
was in that age the cradle Of religious
liberty. Ii was one Of the worlds
greater freedom than those of England.
During their sojourn there the refu-
gees learned to admire and love many
Dutch institutions. and they carried
these feelings with them across
the Atlantic. In the very founda-
ton of the American commonwealth
there was a stratum of the elements
that are present in the fighting
Beers. Hendrix Hudson. when he
sailed his boat. the Half Moon, through
the Narrows. in 1909, was, though Eng
lish himself, in the service of the Dutch
East India company To Holland.
therefore, belongs the honor OF the dis
covery of the Hudson river and what
is now the port of New York. Eng
land claimed all the territory on the
Atlantic coast from the bay Of Fundy
to Florida, but did not oppose the
colonization OF the territory discovered
by Hudson. Hudson named the region
New Netherland and established trad
ing posts on Manhattan island and at
what is now Albany. The first Dutch
colonists arrived in 1923 and settled on
Manhattan island, which they named
New Amsterdam. Holland claimed all
the territory from the Delaware to the
Connecticut. To stimulate colonial
ton the Dutch West India company
offered a tract 10 miles along one bank
of any river or eight miles along both
banks to anybody who would transport
fifty eolonists from the old country.
Among these brave pioneers were the
forefathers OF many who now. look
upon themselves as the aristocracy OF
New York. In just this way did the
Dutch colonize South Africa and found
the nation that is now fighting desper-
ateIy for its freedom. So that there Is
oousinship OF race between many in
the Four Hundred and the stern farm
ers who obey Dom Paul. But inter-
marriage on this side has modified the
original type, whereas the Beers in
their Jealous isolation have preserved
the pure, strong, rugged race.
