Says There's an Epidemic
DR.. Bracken Protests Against
Unvaccinated Children
in Schools.

DR.. Bracken of the state board of
health has sent letter to State
Superintendent of Public Instruction
j. w. Olson, demonstrating against
his position that school authorities
cannot exclude school children
that have not been vaccinated unless
an epidemic of smallpox is prevalent
or threatened. Supt. Olson's pos
ition is based upon an opinion of
Attorney General Douglass that
vaccination cannot be made compul-
sorry unless there is an epidemic.
DR.. Bracken holds that there is
practical an epidemic of smallpox
in the state, and that vaccination
should be compulsory. He cites
that 6,2ss cases of smallpox were
reported up to Aug. 10, since the
disease appeared in the State, and
that 1872 new cases we're reported
during the last fortnight. Pioneer

There is reported to be growing
belief in British commercial circles
that only by copying the American
sytem of fruits can the inroads Of
American commerce in the British
markets be resisted. But an essential
feature of the American method, in
fields where Great Britain is COM
petitor, is a high protective tariff
behind which the trust can protect
itself for losses on the foreign trade
by overcharging in the nestle
trade. The Tariff, in word, enables
the trusts to sell abroad at a sacrifice
and still make profits on their bust
ness as whole. A British trust
system constructed on American
lines must therefore have a tariff
to keep out the Am erican product
and make possible the exaction of
prices in the British market which
will enable the trusts to sell abroad
at a loss, after the manner also OF
the German syndicates The suppo-
sition that the growth of the ex-
port trade of American industrial
combinations is based upon low
cost of production seems to be wholly
fanciful. Springfield Republican.

A new disease is going around
and attacks bread. It is called
s'Rope.'' The current American
Miller has a lengthy article on It.
The bread is at first very nice and
faky, but in a day or two after
baking it turns to dough inside and
gives out an offensive smell AT
first the fault is laid to the flour,
an examination by chemists dis
prove this. Many cases have been
clearly proven that it is not the
cause of the flour. Frost does away
with the trouble. Prof. Lebbin
says it is caused by a bacillus which
comes from the ground and will
attack bread in the kitchen of the
best bread makers. -
The only remedy appears to be a
vigorous scalding of everything used
for making bread. GAINESVILLE

has been scarce and the supply
