BOTH SIDES WON
\ Joint Debate Upon Vaccination
Held at St. Paul.


A joint debate or7 vaccination was held
before crowded house at. the Metropolia
tan theater, st,iPaul, yesterday afternoon:
Health Commissioners r. NJ. Hall of Min
neapolis and, Justuss .Ohage- of ST. Paul de-
Tended the merits aof Vaccination, while
DR.. w. B. Clarke of Indianapolis, pre-
scented the views of characterization cult.
DR.. Hall confined himself largely to a
defense of thesn1erfts ofsvaeelna fanias a
preventive of smallpox as based on the
facts of his administration of the Mime
apolis health department during the past
sixteen months, : Dr. Ohages took up the
matter in its smore general aspect and
showed the remarkable decrease in deaths
from smallpox since vaccination came into
vogue. - -.:7-
DR.. Clarke supported his side of the
contention with statistics of the earlier
years of the last century and figures from
recent reports Of the army surgeons IN
the Philippines. Smallpox, he contended,
was positive benefit in that it prevented
worse conditions. The facts all Showed,
he declared, that vaccination was not a
preventive OF the disease.

BAPTISTS In SESSION
Rev. Yuan HI. Shabaz Makes an APP
peal for Missionary Work
in Persia.

The Baptists opened the series of an
niversary meetings this afternoon in the
First Baptist church of st. Paul. The
program was in charge of the Baptist
Woman's Home Mission union of the west
and included a workers. conference for
missionary workers only. Rev. Yuan H.
sha baz, who spent several years as
missionary in Persia, made an appeal to
have the work there placed directly under
the supervision of the missionary union.
This work has been carried on in a small
way without any particular plan, but, as
perma nent foothold has been secured, it
is probable that the union will take charge
and conduct it on a larger scale.
The meetings will continue for week
and this evening Mrs. James S. Dickerson
will speak of the organization of the
Women's. Baptist Home Mission society
The meetings to-morrow will also be con-
Quoted by the women's society.

CANADA WILL NOT HELP
Dunsmufr Governments Railway
Schemes Will Fail.

Special to The journal.
Vancouver, B. c., May 19.-There is con-
sternation in the camp of the Dunsmuir gov
eminent, for it is now ascertained that the
Canadian government will give no railway
subsidies this year, and without these the
provincial governments offer of millions OF
cash and many more millions of acres to
railroad promoters become of no avail. as the
chief of these promoters have no intention
of construction unless they get big public
aid from both governments They will take
no chances. 1t is likely now, in the face Of
the continued successful obstruction of tho
opposition party in the legislature that none
of the governments big railroad subsidy
schemes will be pressed this session. And
if they are deferred. overwhelming popular
opposition will effectively prevent their re-
newal next year
The people of British Columbia do not OPP
pose the grant of some aid to railroads. but
they cannot afford to give away millions
of dollars and in addition about fourth Of
the remaining public land Of the proyln..,
as proposed by the Dunsmuir ministry.

LET CURFEW RING AGAIN


Start Courthouse Chimes.
Henry H. Robinson, a member Of the Min
neapolis club, has indted a letter to the
county commissioners urging that the court
house chimes be started again and that the
clock be illuminated at night. He. is not
alone in the opinion that when the county
has gone to the great expense of securing
the chimes and the Illuminating device for
the clock, all possible pleasure and benefit
should be derived
!. Just at present the chime attachment is
out of order, and the county commissioners
have referred the whole matter to the court
house and city hall commission.
The illumination of the clock at night was
discontinued solely on the ground of economy
The superintendent of the building would
gladly see the chime attachment sold for
junk, as, it is a very dainty bit of mechanism
and requires the constant attention Of one
man.
