Dr. Bracken Of the state board OF
health says that while smallpox is on
the increase through the state, the
conditions are not alarming. Other
states he says are in as BAD shape as
is Minnesota, though their reports are
not as full, as those in this state. The
disease is yet in very mild form,
though it may at any time assume a
more virulent nature, and the doctor
expresses surprise that it has kept its
mild nature so long, this being the
third season of this existence to such
an extent.
