when II was discovered to be- small
pox, the name caused an ague Nc in
many localities IL was feared by
many physicians that, in this climate,
the disease might develop into u
virulont form. This has not occurred
and this disease is as harmless today
as IL WAS when IL first appeared In the
state But now in eastern Oregon,
they have the genuine article, the real
Old fashioned smallpox, not developed
from any of our cases but imported
from Pennsylvania by man in search
Of timber location. Priucvillo and
Shaniko, in Crook county, are the
places afflicted by the importation aud

There being no discrimination in

smallpox thore is danger that will he
