GUARANTEED
Smallpox Quarantine Established
at Several Lumber Camps in
the County.

Several logging camps have
been quarantined this week for
smallpox by County Physician
Blakeslee. Mr.. Bla1eslee was
called to camp near SolWay
Saturday where he found a case
jof smallpox. The camp was
quarantined and another a short
distance from this city was
quarantined yesterday. There
was in each instance only one
case in camp. The usual pre-
cautions were taken to prevent
the spread of the disease. The
camps do not suspend operation,
but the men are compelled to
work under guard. DR.. Blakes
lee says that of the several cases
of smallpox that have recently
developed it is singular fact
that not one Of the patients had
been in this vicinity for more
than fifteen days. He has yet to
have called to his attention this
season a case that has been de
veloped by some one living and
making his home in the county.
In every instance the men are
lumbermen and they seem to
bring the disease with them
from North Dakota.

Forty men, the entire crew of

majority Of them came to this
city and went out yesterday for
other contractors. The men had
several grievances. They allege
that they We're poorly housed and
fed and also objected to the fore
man of the camp. They made
some formal demands which
they were refused and accord
ingly they left the camp in u
body. Their places were filled
at once. The Hatcher Co. say
the men have no cause to com
plain and that while the camp
board wasn't up to the Waldorf
Astoria, it was as good as any in
the woocs. The majority Of the
men had been in for about three
weeks and the real cause OF the
trouble is said to have been the
treatment accorded some of the
men by the foreman.
