if at any future time the district

STAMP OUT DISEASE
The State Board of Health VIII TRY
TO Stop ContAgeon.

olympia. Wash, Jan. % The report
OF the state bOOrd of health, which was
completed today, estimates the number
OF cases OF typhoid fever in the state
during the last nine months of 1909 st
l4UO. The board recommends that the
legislature make special approximation
tor the purpose of stamping out this
disease
1t is estimated that 500 of the typhoid
cases occurred in Yakima county during
the epidemic of August. September Or.
tober and November. Not that many
cases were reported to the board from
Yakima county, but it ia believed that
there were good many cases of typhoid
not reported. The epidemic claimed 23
deaths In that county during the months
named.
Typhoid statistics are based almost
entirely on estimates, county health
onlcers I'D nearly all counties being under
the impression during most of the wear
that reports OF typhoid cases were not
required. A circular letter sent To all
the counties about October L, required
reports TO be made thereon. In other
contagious diseases the reports to the
state board began April /, at which
time the appropriation by the last legis-
lature became available.
The report shows the benefits OF or
ganlzed work in stamping out smallpox.
The cases OF smallpox in the state for
the sever months were az follows: April.
2o2; May, 10; June, 115; July, So:
august, "a: September, a; October, ~;
November, %; December, 20.
The board had trouble in getting the
local authorities to act in accordance
with their instructions in Whatcom and
Clarke counties. In the latter county
smallpox had existed more or less for a
period OF two years, but the board
claims that after sy ystematic efforts we're
made the disease was stamped out in six
weeks
The city of Seattle had good many
caees OF smallpox early in the year. but
was free later. ln Spokane the early
part OF the year was free from smallpox,
but there have been % cases with five
deaths since September L. Tacoma has
been free from the disease all year.
There are no records Of previous years
with which to compare the smallpox
statistics of 1908. but when comparrd
with estimates based on the records OF
the marine hospitals marked improve
ment ls shown over 1902

TO SPLIT ON PANAMA
Fifteen Democrats Will Vote to
Ratify the Treaty.
Gorman's Presidential Aspirations
Go Glimmering-He Made
a Very Poor Campaign.

Washington Jan. 24 =" Fifteen demo-
cratic senatOrs will vote TO ratify the
Panama treaty" is the remark that a
democratic Senator made to a repnbIi-
can cOilegue after the conference yester-
day. Ibis means much more than the
ratification of the treaty.
lt is split in the democratic party
on one OF the great issues raised for
campaign purposes. Had Just enough
democrats come over to make sure of
the treaty, the issue might have had
some effect, or at least a little standing.
but when half of the party decides that
the treaty Is right, that Panama is n
republic and was capable OF negotiating
the treaty, then all the talk that has
Deen gong on IN the senate goes for
naught.
Another thing of not so much import
ance Is that 10 democratic votes aud
the ratification of the treaty iF the death
knell OF GOrman's presidential aspira-
tons. German was not even cunning
IN his conduct of the case. He did not
even have the usual ability of a peanut
politician.
Before German acted in the senate he.
with Carmack, took q resolution to
NllilahS, the house democratic leader
1t denounced the president and placed
the democratic party on record against
the Panama canal. Williams consulted
some democratic representatives, and
one, who is not known as a prominent
leader. said:
Williams, you leave this alone. Cor
man and Carmack want us to pull chest
nuts out of the fire for them. Let US
wait and see what the country is going
to do about this Panama business. If
the people become aroused, we can get
indignant over night"
The resolution was returned with
thanks. The people did not become
aroused, but German and his followers
in the senate raised the issue. So un-
popular has the movement been that
German has ceased to be considered a
democratic possibility.
