SMALL pOx an
A True Statement Of the Situation by
TX Pool Ofths centralia Courier.

From ne Csntrslis CouriLE Extra Of March D
The Courier gives the news and tells
the truth. And in dealing with the
email pox situation in Oentraiia,it viii
not deviate q hair's breadth from this
rule. Let the plain facts be known.
Last Friday 8. L. Garrard came In
town after : colored MAJ By The name
Of Adam jackson, who had been work
ing for him. BE found the negro COM
planning with q breaking ont on his
fnce. Mr.. Garrard promptly notified
Mayor McCalister, and the Board Of
Health ct once investigated the Ease.
They found Jackson up and about the
house, but with few postnles on his
facs and body. The Board at once
sent for an expert, DR.. Moss Of Paris,
who upon arriving pronounced 1t
mild case Of ANAL pox. Thereupon
the Board bad the negro, with the IN
tire family, removed to 9 pest house
outside Of the city limits, and es-
tablished a strict quarantine and
system Of rigid inspection among the
colored population.
The diseasa lie the same that lie going
over the country. Some call II the
Cuban Itch, others designate II chicken
pox, while still others say II is q very
mild form Of small pox. Our doctors
do not ali agree as to what it Is, but
all do agree that the community does
not want It Whatever II may be, and
the Board Of Health Is to be COM
mended for the prompt steps taken to
kill 1t of in its incipiency.
The negro is getting well rapidly
and all danger Is thought to be past.
The authorities have the matter well
in hand and no further trouble is
anticipated from 1t.
To the country people we would
say frankly that there is not even 9
suspicious case in town-the one
suspicious case, with the entire
family, having been quarantined out
side Of the city, and thai they run
absolutely no risk in coming to
C~entralia. The school has not been
dismissed, and big crowds were on the
streets Saturday and Monday, without
taking any chances whatever Of
getting the disease. Business is
moving along as usual and everything
is lovely in the Prairie Queen.
You can depend upon this state
ment Of the facts of the situation. =

THR eOEBEI CONSPIRACY.
Golden Says That Powers and Othen
Plotted the Murder, and Gives the
Dessils-Massaere Of Demo
Gratis Planned.

FRANKFORT, KY, March a4.-MArk-
ed with, q victim OF consumption and
suffering from ~hemorrhages, which
twice caused q postponment Of the
hearing, Wharton Golden, Sergeant
OF the Bsrhourvllle militia company,
on the witness stand to-day told Of q
damnable plot to murder not only
Goebel bgt to kin enough members Of
the Legislature to leave q Republican
majority, that the Republicans might
retain possession Of the state offices.
The testimony is almost beyond be-
lief, but the Commonwealth has other
witnesses who wiz corroborate it. By
his testimony Golden accuses not only
the arrested men with a guilty knowl-
edge OF the plot, but also Governor
Taylor, who, BY Golden's statement,
held himself in readiness to call out
the militia in f~urthersnce Of the al
legged plot. The testimony, following
that Of yesterday, which located the
assassin in the Office Of Secretary of
State Powers, makes q moot damag-
ing case against him, who is alone
now on trial, separate hearings being
demanded.
The Commonwealth has practically
closed its case against Powers and the
defense probably win begin its case
directly after the REORGANIZATION
of Golden Monday.
There are other strong witnesses
for the Commonwealth, but 1t Is be-
lieved sufficient testimony has been
introduced to justify the holding of
Powers. The hearing will continue
well into next week, as, after Powers,
Auditors Clerk Cullom and Police
man Davis are 70 be arraigned.
Briefly, Golden swore that Powers
arranged the bringing of the mount
aineers to Frankfort. Only feudista
were wanted. All were armed. There
was no secret between Powers and
Golden as to the object Of the move
ment, and the men were to be assem-
bled who could be depended onto
take life. he swore that Powers left
Frankfort on the day of the assassina-
ton in order to prove an abb. A key
to his office was left with q man whom
Golden does not know. The key did
not at, as was shown yesterday, and q
hatchet was used to force an entrance.
Golden swore that Taylor had the
militia in readiness to be called out as
soon as the work Of assassination be-
gan, and the developments prove his
assertion, as militia, secretly assem-
bled, ran from the Armory and were
in possession of the State House in
ten minutes after the crime, thus pre-
venting q search for the assassin.
Golden may not live for the ina
trials. Even II he be spared the as
sassin's bullet he may die Of consuIap-
ton unless the trials are speedily hSdd.
There are others who can tell much,
but none who, like him, were actually
instrumental in planning the assass-
iuation or carrying out the orders Of
the alleged conspirators, unless the
| Commonwealth has witnesses WHOSE
names have not yet been dsvulged fol
! fear OF foul plaY.

Hos. W. X. KExNks, Mexico, Mo.
CLINTON, NO., MARCH 10, is0o.-
Dear win:-Replying to yours Of the
10th inst, I beg to say that what you
saw in the Republic as to our having
recently raised, in this, Henry county,
upwards Of $500 for the monument In
the Confederate cemetery at Spring
aeld, Missouri, Ia true and, moreover,
we are yet at work and Will raise an
additional sum, We have recently
perfected organizations In twenty
nine counties, many Of them the
wealthiest and most popular In the
state such as Bates, Saline, Ray, Ran
dolph, Charlton, Howard, Boone,
galloway, Audraiu, Monroe and Ma
con, and have reason to believe that
every ono of them will respond
literally.
As an instance OF what 4 be done,
I may state that only q short time
ago Captain Jas. Ewart, Of maysvills,
DeKalb county, was appointed 70
manage the canvass In that county,
and on the 9TH inst. he RENTED our
treasurer s122. so, being the amount
collected In that little city Of Mays.
vile, not including anything from the
county, outside of the village.
It is estimated that we now have
5000 collected, not including any
thing from the twenty nine counties
recently organized. In the beginning,
the committee on monuments and
cemeteries proposed to raise $4,000,
but since I became q member OF the
committee and investigated the
matter, / am convinced we should
have more and can raise more. do
not believe that the amount named
will be sufficient to build the monu-
ment and beautify the grounds; and,
besides, it seems to me that while we
are at 1t we should raise an additional
sum 10 form a permanent endowment
fund, the annual interest to be used In
caring for the cemetery. We can, by
proper effort, in less than four months,
raise the necessary money, select the
designs and let the contract; but, Of
course, the measure OF success will be
in proportion to the ~earnestness and
| determination with which. work IL
prosecuted. Yours very truly,
Il. W. SALMON.
