McLin Sustained.

Judge Malone has rendered his de-
cision in the case of Camp & West VS..
B. e. McLin, commissioner of agricul-
ture, in which the former seek to re-
strain the commissioner from turning
over to the Florida Naval Stores and
Commission Co. the state convicts, rs
per the terms OF the lease made by the
board of state institutions on June 2S.
1901.
Judge Malone's decision denies the in
junction asked for by Camp g. West
and sustains the demurrer entered by
the commissioner, and dsmisses the bill
in equity.
Tho information was communicated
by Judge Malone to Col. r.. w. Wilt
ans, of counsel for Commissioner McLin
yesterday afternoon. The decision, di-
vested Of legal verbiage, is based upon
the following grounds;
1.-The proceeding was virtually 3
suit against the state, which cannot be
sued save by its own consent.
2.-rhe bond executed BY Camp q
West for the performance Of the alleged
contract was never submitted to or APP
proved by the board of commissioners OF
state institutions.
.. No accrued rights have vested in
the complainants- Camp q Vest

An Interesting Question.

From what the Leesburg Commercial
says, it would seem that the Florida
conference OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, may get u lawsuit on its
hands for abandoning its college at
Leesburg. The Commercial says dis
tinctly that the conference must refund
dollar for dollar to all who contributed
to the location and establishment OF the
college at Leesburg, and that the return
OF the college property to the donors will
not fulfil the requirements Of the con-
tract between the donors and the con-
ference. In this connection an interest.
ing question arises. The conference
holds that it made a bad bargain with
the people Of Leesburg, but It stuck to
it for about fifteen years. The bargain
was bad for the conference, not from n
moral, but from a business standpoint.
Now, the question is this. Has che
conference the moral right TO break the
contract without the consent Of the
other parties thereto? II one Of the
most powerful representative religious
bodies In Florida has the moral right to
cancel what it deems a bad business
transaction, what sort Of lesson is it to
private individuals who are daily max
ing trades that result to their pecuniary
disadvantage? -Punta Gorda Herald.

FROM YELLOW JACK
CUBA is RECLAIMED
Statistics Show Improvement
In Health Of Island.
BIG DECREASE IN DEATH RATE
Since the American Occupation the I'm.
provement in Health Conditions of
Cuba Has Been RemarkabIe-Many
Scourges Stamped Out.

Washington, March 22.-An interest
Ing statement concerning the improve
| ment in health conditions in Havana
since the American occupation of Gu
ba, with special reference to the vital
statistics for the calendar year 1901,
has been made public by the insular
division of the war department Partic-
ular attention is paid to the purging
OF the city from yellow fever during
the past year by the destruction of in
fected mosquitoes. 1t is of vast i'm
pOrtance, the statement. says, that
these facts should be made known to
the world extensively and as rapidly
as possible. During the past As years,
with scarcely an exception, some
deaths have occurred from yellow fe-
yer in every month of the year OF
the year the maximum. 2,058 deaths
taking place in 1857; the minimum 81
deaths, in 1866, with the average ISL.
The number of other infectious and
contagious diseases has been small
during the calendar year 1901. There
has been very little diphtheria and ty-
phOid fever and tuberculosis is about
the rate of most cities of the civilized
world. A rapid decrease has taken
place since American occupation.
The statement concludes as follows ::
''The army took charge of the health
department of Havana when deaths
were occurring at the rate of 81 ,252
per year. 1t gives it up with deaths
occurring at the rate of 5 ,720 per year
1t took charge with smallpox epidem-
ic for years. 1t gives not a single
case having occurred in the city for
over Is months. 1t took charge with
yellow fever epidemic for two Centu-
ries 1t found Havana feared as a
thing unclean by all her neighbors of
the United States and quarantined
against as too dangerous to touch or
even to come near anything that she
had touched. to the untold financial
loss of both Havana and the United
States. 1t has established the fact that
yellow fever is only transmitted by a
certain species of mosquito, a discov-
cry that in its power for saving human
life is~only eXcelled by Jenner's great
| discovery, and as time goes on it will
stand in the same class as that great
boon to mankind.
The army has stamped out this dis.
ease in it's greatest stronghold, there
having been only five deaths in the
last nine months of the year and no
deaths and no cases during the last
three months of the same year, and it
| has demonstrated a system by which
yellow fever can be certainly con.
trolled without the interference OF
commerce."
