SMALLPOX IN WEST DEPTFoRD.

At one o'clock this morning Dr. james
Hunter, of Newbold, and the entire Board
of Health Of West Deptford, aroused Clerk
G. N. Bell, OF the Board Of Freeholders, fol
information as to the course to pursue te
transfer a smallpox patient to the County
Hospital on the Aims House farm. They
said they had case Of smallpox in a
colored family on ex-Freeholder knights
farm, on the Swedesboro turnpike, and had
visited the Aims House to make arrange
ments to remove the man to the Isolation
Hospital, but Steward Ridgway had IN
formed them that he had nothing to do
with that institution, that it was the duty
Of the township to procure physician
and nurse to care for the patient. Mr..
Bell said the Board, by resolution at the
February meeting, had outlined the duties
of the Steward in such cases.
We quote the resolution -:
Resolved, BY the Board Of Chosen Free
holders of Gloucester County, that the
Steward Of the County Aims House is
hereby directed to take charge of the Isola-
tion Hospital, ON the county farm, and
keep the same always in readiness for the
reception Of persons suffering from conta-
gious diseases.
careful reading of the resolution does
not disclose that the steward Of the Aims
House is required to do more than take
charge of the Isolation Hospital, and keep
the same in readiness for the reception of
persons suffering with contagious disease. =
How literally that resolution will be
construed, is a matter for our County
Fathers to determine.
We have been unable to learn the name
of the small -poxss patient, but he is a
member of two colored families who
live in the house described above, some of
whom have been working on Mr.. Knights s
farm at Mantua. When he came home
from work Monday night he complained of
being i'll, and smallpox developed on
Wednesday.
The township Board Of Health has placed
a quarantine on the house and permit no
person to leave or enter the same.
Apropos to the position Of Steward Ridg
way as to his duty in such cases, we quote
paragraph from an opinion by Solicitor
Watkins, called forth by request Of the
Glassboro Board of Health, relative to the
care of patients at the Isolation Hospital
The full opinion was printed in our issue
of March 25 and after quoting and dissect-
ing the law, the Solicitor concludes
ut would seem, under this act, that the
duty of maintaining the patients and pro-
viding for the expense, devolves upon the
Board of Chosen Freeholders. 5"
That being the case, taken in connection
with the resolution of the February meet
ing, Steward Ridgway's duty as far as the
Isolation Hospital is concerned, differs not
widely from bis duty to the institution in
which he resides. 1t must be kept in
readiness to receive patients, supplies must
be furnished, and an immune person be at
moments call.
Just as we go to press we learn that the
mans name is Judge Garland; that he
worked at Tacoma, Penna., last week, and
came home sick on Monday.

Green's Stock Farm.

We are indebted to Manager James ].
Dunn of Green's Stock Farm, now under
lease by the famous horse owner, VIM. Mac
Farland, for an opportunity of seeing the
largest collection of fine horses ever gathered
in this section. On the farm are tfty-six
stations, racers and blooded brood mares
in care Of small army Of grooms, drivers
and attendants. Among the stock are
number of young trotters, many of which
have never entered race and have no
mark, and are as yet unnamed, but are
being put in condition for the campaign of
1903.
The first stall that Mr. Dunn opened had
as an occupant Baron Onward, a brown
stallion, years old. He combines the
racing blood Of the famous Wilkes and
Onward strains.
Cuban is thoroughbred racer with a
mark of 2 80 He is by Alfred G, and is
being conditioned for the circuit.
Next came beautiful bay mare by Re-
Election She is unnamed, and will re-
main so until her first race.
Baron Dawson is a two-year-old who has
shown great speed in trials.
Mary Tell, by Ax-Tell, 3-year-old, is in
training for the circuit.
Lady Fairplay, by Baron Wilkes, is only
years old, getting into shape.
Lottie Gamelian is 3-three-old in the
same class.
Then there is Mary Mitten, record 2s291,
by Cecelian Prince, who has no trouble in
making trial heats in 215.
Ashland Bess, by Ash Wilkes, out Of
Sallie Clinker, 2.I3.
Johnnie Ogen, who has a mark of 2. 05i,
is one of the staunch racers of the circuit
Max F, is PAGER with a mark of 2.29,
and trials in 2.21.
An unnamed gray mare, by Cecelian,
shows trials in 217l, is beauty.
Two handsome youngsters, OF famous
blood, are in training, also an unnamed
brown geIding by Clay King
Last but not least, Mr.. Dunn took the
blanket off Carin Texanna, show mare
owned by Mr. Cyril W. Thompson, of
Philadelphia, and has won twenty blue
ribbons in the show ring. Last week, at
Lakewood, in competition with the Gould's
and best stock of other millionaires Of that
famous resort she carried off two blue rib
bons.
Mr.. MacFarland will be able to give
some good matinees this summer.
Question.
A correspondent from East Greenwich
asks -
'What authority has the Township Com
mittee over the roads? and when they APP
point supervisor, are they required to
look after the roads, or does the roads be-
long to the supervisor for repairing? We
have a Republican Committeeman who
claims he owns the township and is boss of
all the roads. By answering this question
you will greatly oblige."
T"Public Office is a public Trust" Under
the law the Township Committee has au
tholity over the public highways. They
may delegate the actual work of keeping
roads in repair to supervisor or super
visors, hut the responsibility rests with the
Committee. For the manner in which
they execute this trust they are answerable
to the people. Committeeman and Super
visors, as we'll as other public servants,
have been known to get the idea that they
were not public servants, but the people
were their servants. In such cases,
where a healty public sentiment exists,
their tenure Of Office is brief. Editor

Our ambitious little neighbor, Pauls-
boro, had her first experience with strenu-
GUS labor troubles last Monday when the
native laborers in the Can Company's
Works refused to work beside dozen
Huns brought to the works the week be-
fore. The Company made a demand on
Sheriff Jones for protection and Deputy
Platt and City Marshall Dopson were sent
down, and all Monday forenoon the native
workmen played ball outside the works
while the Huns remained inside the high
fence. The big works were idle and holl-
day air pervaded the whole place. rep
resentati1e Of the DEMOCRAT spent half
hour at the works about noon, and was
shown through them by foreman Philip
Baumann Great piles of scrap tin was
awaiting resumption of the works to have
the tin washed off the iron, and then the
iron is hammered into thin sheets again.
This is said to be high grade Of steel, and
is known as No. l scrap. The foreman told
us that they were unable to run the plant
to full capacity because of lack of men, and
he was sent out to get help. He came
back with IS Huns and two Germans All
went well until Sunday morning, when
notice was served on the firm that the
Huns must go. Why said Baumann,
s'these fellows say I'm Hun" 'The
truth is, . he continued, lsI'm French
German. | was born in Alsace Lorraine,
and as result of the Franco-German war
became German against my parents will.
Twenty one years ago came to America
and was considered pretty good citizen OF
Perth Amboy, holding an Office there for
seven years y We then interviewed the
native workmen outside the fence. They
didn't have the appearance of rioters, and
were not in dangerous mood. They said
they didn't propose to work with the
Hungarians If the firm wanted them, it
was their privilege to have them, but
"Hun'' and Jersey wouldn't mix.
Later on Monday Editor Leonard came
to the aid of Superintendent Schmaal, with
proposition that the foreigners be worked
in gang by themselves on separate shifts
from the old men. This idea was con-
yeyed to the strikers and all agreed to go
to work at the toot of the whistle Tuesday
morning
Thus ended Paulsboro's first labor strike.

COCAINE HABIT SPREADING.
Chicago Druggist Says Use of DrAG
Causes Railroad Wrecks.

A grand jury investigation shows
that the cocaine habit is widespread in
Chicago society, says the Philadelphia
Press. Five druggists have been indict-
ed for selling 1t without prescriptions.
Wilhelm Bodemann, treasurer of the
state board of pharmacy, testified be
fore the grand jury that in his opinion
the many wrecks on the railroads could
be traced to the use of cocaine by the
employees of these companies. and out
of this statement grew the investiga-
ton that has revealed the widespread
use of the drug.
Railroad men are not allowed to
drink. They fear to break this rule, for
the odor of liquor would soon lead to
detection. So In seeking a substitute
many of them have become cocaine
fiends.
