No Smallpox in Grant.

some person or persons, either IL
malice or the very much mistaken
Idea OF "fun." have been persistent IN
spreading the false report that there
was smallpox on one of the planta-
tions u compile Of miles from Colfax.
Drs. w. A. Jones and f. B. Gray saw
both of the alleged cases. and pro-
nounce one harmless chicken pox, and
the other u cutaneous disease with a
technical name we forget.
The State hoard Of health has ad-
dressed a circular to the parish SUPER
intendents OF public schools, presi-
dents Of parish boards. and all princI-
pals OF public schools. calling atten-
tion to the law requiring children in
the public schools to be vaccinated In
all localities exposed to smallpox.
This circular probably caused appre-
hension In the minds of some that
smallpox was somewhere near by.
Their fears are totally without foun-
II the Grant parish board of
health believed there was any expos
nre or danger. they would order the
to be vaccinated or quit
'chool. This not having been done
. sufficient guarantee that there is
40 danger In Grant parish.

"NIotive Right, Method Wrong. 81

''MOtive Right, Method Wrong. 81
Cardinal Gibbons, a man of recog.
nized sagacity in the world at large
and OF authority In the Catholic
church In particular, when asked
about Mrs. Nation and her saloon
smashing in Kansas, crystalized the
whole situation in the terse sentence,
"her motive is all right. but her meth
Cd is wrong" In this sentence the
great Catholic prelate has expressed
the views Of the average citizen.
However, like the average citizen, the
Cardinal offers no suggestion as to
what would I've the best method to
suppress and stamp out a great and
crying evil. 1t is this very failure to
advance any plan or adopt any more
lawful measures. by the men who are
charged with administering the law.
that has decided Mrs. Nation to 60
into the smashing business.
The Cardinal ID wrong, and Mrs.
Nation 10 right. She has seen thou
sands Of men who admit that her
motive 10 right, but stand ready to
condemn any method OF suppressiag
the liquor traffic that may be tried.
The law in Kansas was against the
traffic. yet the officers of the State,
from governor down to constable,
either through cowardice or corrup-
ton. refused and failed to enforce the
law. Let the men Of the nation stand
up In their integrity and might. and
do their simple duty, and there will
BE- NO need OF the hatchet crusaders.
and Mrs. Nations m6thod might then
be condemned; but until this IL the
ease 1t does not lie In the mouth OF
any man to condemn her.

AGREEMENT
Difficult to Reach
Between Coal Operators
and Miners.
Must be Fought Out In
Convention.
The Convention May Continue
For Several Days.
Miners viii Not Agree to Reduction,
Nor Operators to Increase.

Columbus, O., Feb. 4.-(Spi) 1.-THE
Joint Scale committee of the soft coal
miners and operators today resumed
consideration of the miners demands.
Three propositions have been voted
upon.
The Illinois operators voted with the
miners for their demand Of pay for
run of mine. That system is now In
operation in Illinois. All other opera.
tors voted against this proposition.
The operators and miners were solidly
arrayed against each other on the de-
mand that the differential between
pick and machine mining be fixed ut
seven cents per ton. so they stood on
the demand for an increase of ten
cents ton, and for uniform wage
scale for all outside employees. So the
prediction of last week that the COM
mittee will agree upon nothing and
the whole matter will have to be
fought out In the convention, has been
already practically confirmed.
The things on which the miners and
operators are farthest apart are the
differential and run of mine demands.
The scale committee may be in session
until tomorrow noon and no meeting
of the joint conference will be held
until the committee is ready to re-
port.
