OPPOSE CONFUSION.
State Superintendent Nelson Hears
from Nearly All Counties.

State superintendent Of Schools A. c..
Nelson, sent the following communica-
ton TO the various county school super
intendents:
Dear Slr:-How do your schools
stand on the compulsory vaccination
proposition? Are your schools all open?
II not, how many are closed? Are you
likely TO have any trouble I'm enforcing
the order? Please give me Information
In the matter that / may be able TO
present your situation 10 the legislature
and thereby relieve the schools Of the
State"
In reply 20 these questions Superin-
tendent Nelson has received letters
from nearly all OF the county superin-
tendents, all Of which say the people
in the different counties are opposed to
compulsory vaccination, and the ma
jority are opposed to il In any form.
Below is given few excerpts from the
letters referred to, which are fair sam
pies Of the sentiments expressed by the
county superintendent on the subject:
Nephi Anderson, superintendent OF
the Boxelder schools, says
"All Of our schools are open; only one
case OF smallpox exists IN the county
and 20 enforce the health boards order
would work ruin with the schools, and
they would have trouble In enforcing
the order because Il would reach The
height Of the ridiculous" He closes by
saying: Il wish you success IN relieving
the school system Of the State OF the
milestone az present around us neck"
Jacob Magleby superintendent OF the
SEWER county schools, writes
Owe have but two cases VI smallpox.
All our schools are open and all chill
dren not sick are permitted 70 attend.
But few people IN this county are in
favor Of compulsory vaccination

MAYOR TH0MPSON'S STAND.
Attitude On the Vaccination Question
Thinks Law a Good One.

Mayor Thompsons attitude IN the
vaccination question is that he will
stand firm in the enforcement OF the
board Of health's mandate. Of which
body he is the chairman. When seen
this morning by a representative Of the
News" Mayor Thompson stated that
the following interview which he gave
out last night exactly stated his posi-.
ton in the matter:
Il shall do all In my power 10 enforce
the law to the letter In regard TO the
school board, | am satisfied that the
teachers viii be liable to prosecution
and punishment n they violate the law
by admitting children who have not
been yaccinated. but | believe In going
right TO the head OF the matter and
prosecuting those members Of the
school board who voted 90 defy the
board Of health. Those are the men
who are most responsible but as / un-
derstand II, their action does not excuse
the teachers"
II am a firm believer In vaccination"
continued the mayor. THE medical
fraternity Is practically agreed upon
this point, ana common sense and the
experience We have had IN this city are
all on that side. I would dislike very
much 20 think that any action on my
part or any failure 10 act was fesponsl-
Ole for the death OF any person. or re-
sponsible for any one being disfgured
for life But It is not a question OF
what | think on the subject OF vacclna-
ton Il Is a question Of whether or not
the law IS 20 be defled I think the law
Is a good one, and so long as Il Is on
the statute books II should be obeyed
II Il Is bad law, and II the people are
opposed to II. L should be repealed by
the legislature"
In regard 10 the effect this agitation
Is liable TO have on the city and the
state, the mayor said: II am sorry Il
has occurred Il is certain TO have a
bad effect. We can easily stamp out
this disease and as / understand II the
authorities have Il now under pretty
control; but II the law Is re-
pealed and the bars are let down I am
afraid our city and our state viii suffer
IN business way II seems 10 me 10
be the duty Of everybody to obey the
laws and the rules Of the board OF
health and stamp out this smallpox
with as little fuss as possible. II other
cities and other States should quaran-
tine against US Il would be a serious
natter"
