Judge Evans holds that the Nc,
Chord railroad bill, which was
passed by the legislature to pre-
vent the railroads from collecting
extortionate freight rates, is un-
constitutional and has granted an
injunction against its enforce
ment. There will be no surprise
expressed at Judge Evans deci-
sion, but the case will go to the
higher courts, where similar law
adopted by another State was
upheld. The McChord bill was
an issue in the late campaign and
it stirred up the railroads to the
bitter fight against the late Gov.
Goebel. The roads will now fight
in the courts and it is to be hoped
that the people, who granted the
roads the franchises under which
they operate, will be able to again
demonstrate that the creature is
not greater than the creator.

Civ Health Authorities Abandoned
It Several Days Ago.
MUCH SECRECY OBSERVED
Are lust a. Many Cases Of "NmallpoH'

The public was somewhat surprised
today TO learn that the pest house or
ISOLATION hospital, had been closed down,
the patients AN discharged, and the
nurse cook and other help let out Tine
announcement however. did not come
from the health authorities and Be Is
now learned that the hospital was
broken up on June 18th The health
authorities seem to have endeayored TO
keep the matter quiet. as reporters
calling daily at the department were
not given any information about the
move.
There are now In the city more cases
Of modified smallpox than there were
when the pesthouse was established.aul
a good many people cannot understand
why there isn't just az much necessity
for the institution now as there was
then.
The explanation offered by some ~
that the health officials have az last
reached the same conclusion that d.
MAYO advanced some time ago. when
Is that this disease Is not small pox at
all.
The seven cases OF smallpox now IN
the city are covered by two flags,
While no explanation regarding the
action taken has yet been given OUT
Il is considered possible that the SUBJ
ject may again be presented TO the med
Teal society. This may De followed by
another vote 20 determine whether OF
