as their opinion on medical subjects

4 Question as to Whether There Has
Been Case IN the City.

| The smallpox question was discussed
yesterday from all quarters The pub.
llc. as q whole. ID OF the opinion thai
there has not been d case of smailpo,
IN the city. " II generally believed
that the announcement was made sole.
iy for the purpose of obtaining reye.
nue. Tor tho doctors In the way Of ser.
vices for vacclnating persons. The
loose way In which guarantees have
been managed and the fact that no
new cases have developed from the
cases reported and which have been
In direct communication with the pub.
lic at large has led the people to this
conclusion. The article In yesterday
Astofian led to all kinds OF comment
and leading physician comes out in
q speciai article this morning on the
subject.
While physicians individually have
found cases OF smallpox. yet there has
not been case yet reported by one
that has not been disputed by from
one 10 two,
They tell tho Astorian that II is mt
smallpox. but professional etiquette
requires them 10 keep silent. They
laugh at the mistakes OF their CO.
practitioners and say they do not
know smallpox when they see II, and
SAY that Il would be ''unprofessionai'
to call them down.
''If the doctors are 40 unprofessIonai
as to give each other away to the pub
lic." said q prominent citizen yester.
day. swhy should they expect ahe
common people TO swallow all OF the
smallpox statements"
The Astorian does not desire to
magnify or diminish the smallpox att
uasion and does not pretend to give
out information from D. scientific point
OF view The physicians ars supposed
TO do this. But when they differ and
talk about the ignorance and incom-
petence Of one another. the public
must necessarily flnd something to
talk about.
Again the Astor House case Is re-
garded as joke. the Hanson resi-
denee case Is regarded as a fake. and
the cases taken 10 the pest-house ere
regarded an more ridiculous, and when
the physicians make these statements
why should the newspapers and rub
lie keep aulets
Mid forms OF smallpox, or any
other smallpox II dangerous. but fake
smallpox to obtain .aeelnations Is
subject to condemnation.
The Astorlan passes no opinion. but
voices the expression OF a majority OF
the physicians and the public nj large,

PARTY FEALTY.

One of the most serious ob stacles in the way of an over- whelming victory for Democra- cy in the approaching Septemb- CT election, is the manner in which the Democratic nominee for Governor has conducted him- self toward leading Democrats who saw fit to oppose his nomi- nation for Governor and the nomination for the United States Senate of the man whose cause he championed; but for this reason no good Democrat should suffer himself influenced to with hold his support from the ticket. Let those whom the Governor has offended, remember that to retaliate by refusing to support him would be descending to the same plane as that upon which he has placed himself. While to many 1t may seem extremely un- fortunate that Mir. Davis was again selected as the leader of the Democratic hosts in the pres ent campaign they must also re- member that vast majority of their party friends and associates think otherwise, and since it is one of the cardinal tenets of Democracy that the majority rule 1t is apparent that duty dictates but one course and that IS to faithfully abide the action of the many. rather than sulk in the tents with the few.
 The fact that Mir. Davis does wrong, in his abuse of Demo- crats, IS no reason why these Democrats should do their party wrong. It might amount to very little to Democracy so far
The Monticellonian., 1902-08-21

as Mir. Davis is personally con cerned whether he ever filed the executive chair again or not, but 1t does concern the party deeply whether or not he is elected, as the representative of that party The defeat of Gov ernor Davis would, now, be the defeat of Democracy. and no good Democrat can afford to encourage such a contingency, either by voting against Davis or refusing to vote at all. Be- sides, Mir. Davis, with all of his idiosyncracies, inpulsivencss and irritableness, seems to be as good, if not better man than his chief opponent; Mir. Meyers i; and when we reflect that Meyers is leading party which, when in power in this State, lived by pillage and plunder, and has never shown the least disposi- tion to improve, there seems no reasonable excuse for Democrats to waver or to halt. Their du- ty is plain. To the polls on election day, all of them should go and register their votes for Democracy and good govern

While the Regular Republican candidate for Governor will re- ceive more votes than will the lnsurgent, 1t IS not because he IS the best man, but from the fact that the Republican party, in Arkansas, is made up largely of negroes and most of them will vote for Clayton's nominee Meyers.
