While wars cease and long peri:
ods Of peace intervene, the ravages
Of preventable disease 60 On al
wavs in every country. Wars are
not always preventable. A coun.
try may BE- attacked without Just
cause, and must defend itself
Probably no disease is always pre-
ventable. but emsll-pox il one Of
those Of which the prevention is
most certain if proper measures
be taken. One Of the most oom-
mon arguments used by the anti
vaccinationists is the trouble that
results from the use Of diseased
vaccine matter. But as nobody
advocates that sort of vacclnation
the argument has no logical force.
It certainly emphasizes the need
of greater care in the preparation
and distribution Of pure matter
If this we're made universal most
of the objections to vaccination
would speedily disappear. In
spite oft vaccination has done andi
continues to do q vast: amount oj
good, and when faithfully prac
ticed reduces deaths from small
pox almost to the vanishing point
excepting, of course, cases import
ed IRON places where less care il
taken.
The position of the Courier
Journal. on the subject of vaccina
tion is that of a large m 'jority o
practical, thoughtful people -,
where. It Is identical. with th'
position of the Wisconsin Stat
Board of Health, which, at tn
coming session of the Legislature
will ask for increased power on tn
part of health boards throughou
Wisconsin to make vaccination
compulsory.

greater safety, if the American

crime. The lawyers who defend
ed the Charlottesville, Indiana,
vote sellers contending that the
law providing disfranchisement
as the penalty for convicted vote
sellers was unconstitutional, have
lost their case in the circuit court
