THE DOCTOR Is RIGHT.

B One of the physicians of the city has
taken us to task about the treatment
OF the matter of contagious diseases by
the weekly press. After some deliber-
alton we believe that he is right in his
position thatiit iss better for the press
to tell the whole truth regarding such
matters. It discourages the physician
from doing his duty and places prem
ium on the doctor who tries to cover
such cases and thus endanger the lives
of the community The physician in
question states that in his opinion it
would be much better for a town to ac-
qaire the reputation Of the strict en-
forcement of quarantine regulations be
known as city where such diseases
are lightly treated, where the facts are
covered up and the quarantine regula-
tions are not observed. The truth is,
that a mild form of small pox is preva-
lent over the state. Hardly a county
has escaped it, but at the same time
the disease has proven fatal only in the
rarest instances. At Carroll we are
informed that there have been five
cases, in Vail one, in Stockholm town
ship q number and in half the towns
about US there have been one or more
cases Denison has not escaped. There
have been two cases both of which are
under strictquarantine. The two pa
tients are doing we'll, at no time has
the disease developed alarming symD-
toms, but there is no question but that
both had mild form of the disease.
This is the truth about Denison. Win
other. towns now be as frank in their
statements as to public health? For
ourselves we have little fear of the dis
ease and have much more dread Of
! diphtheria and kindred diseases.
DR.. j. J. McWilliams, of Charter
I Oak, was among the many witnesses in
attendance during the trialo of the case
of Charter Oak VS.. Lang, The doctor
tells US that he had all arrangements
made to attend the inaugural ceremol :
les at Washington, but that there is
SO much sickness IN his. vicinity that
he does not feel able to get away.

is understood that an appeal to the
