Rules of Board of Health Valid.

The Appellate Court. at Fort Scott, on
June 13, refused to grant a writ of man
damus, applied for by Rev. S. B. Osborn,
to compel the Board of Education of
Dodge City to admit his child to the
public schools without complying with
the order regarding vaccination. This
case was fled in the court setting at Gar
den City in February last, and was ar
gued at the time. f. j. Oyler represented
Mr.. Osborn and Reeves & kirkpatrick
the Board of Education.
a similar case was decided by the su-
preme court of Utah in April last.
Among other things in the syllabus of
the supreme court of Utah, it says:
s'Where it is admitted that an emer-
geucy existed, and that the conta gious
and infectious disease of smallpox was
prevalent, and vaccination is admitted by
the pieadings to be the only safe prevent
i've recognized and approved by medical
science throughout the civilized world a
rule of the board of health and the board
of education, excluding all unvaccin.ted
pupils, who are liable to carry smallpox
into the schools, from attending the pub
lie schools during the prevalence of the
disease. is not only reasonable regula-
ton in aid of the public health, aud JUS
titled.
part of the board of health to compel
vaccination, but during the emergency
an option was given the pupil, who was
liable to convey the disease into the
schools, to be vaccinated or remain away
from the schools until the danger from
smallpox was past, the order is justified
under the police power inherent in the
State This holding, however. must not
be construed as empowering the board to
require compulsory vaccination with out
the consent of the patient
although the constitution of the State
is silent on the subject of controlling con-
tagious diseases. no one person has the
legal right TO infect another with small
pox, and the statute cannot be construed
as conferrIng that right upon any person
or class of people,
This looks reasonable and the court de-
eided justly. Reeves s. kirkpatrick are
congratulated for the manner in which
they presented their side of the case.

Patterson, after which .sComing To-Day
was rendered very fmpressively. The
speaker then read q selection from the

Ford county has nearly $4,000 acres in
wheat This is not a large acreage, but
it is a big thing for the county. The
product of 24, COO acres of wheat, with
the present prospect of yield and prices,
will add something to the prosperity of
the county. The wheat yield is estimat-
ed at an average of % bushels to the
acre. This would make 60O, 900 bushels,
and at so cents a bushel would bring
$500. 600. The crop is pretty sure and
harvesting has begun. There is i'm
mediate danger to the crop. just think
of $500, 900 distributed among the people
in Ford county! 1t is $50 head to every
man, woman and child in the county.
This is per capita that will send cold
chill to the calamity shriekers. Lively
times are expected this fall. The wheat,
corn, cattle and other products, will en-
able Ford county farmers to even up with
something in store.
