To tie Editor of the NEW DoMINIoN:

To tie Editor OF the New DOMINION:
There are some things going on 10
this town that ought not 10 be posi-
bic in any community where there is a
government.
On Thursday afterday afternoon
there was an automobile flashing
through the principal streets at a
speed OF from fifteen to twenty miles
an hour, and making more noise than
a thrashing machine.
1t not only frightened the horses,
but put put the life Of every living
thing IL peril. This one machine
took entire possession of the streets
for two hours, Even John Meeks old
team jumped the pole and had to be
retired.
We suppose the pollcemen--if there
are any-saw this performance.
Everybody else-save the officers of
the town-either saw or heard it,
Are the people OF this county to
have their lives put in jeopardy by
meeting such a machine as that on the
streets and public highways? Have
we any government?
Well, maybe we have not, but we
heard very determined and law abid-
ing citizen say that he would carry
his government with him hereafter In
his pocket and when thing like that
came at him on the public highway he
would make wasp nest Of t.
Why should he not? If there is no
law, the citizen must make law for
himself L. A. W.

HEALTH MATTERS.
DIR. Edmondson Given Power to
Act in School District.

DR.. Haught of Granville Confers the
Power on Him school Closed on
Niles HiIl-Lar About Reports will
be Changed-Eo Fear Of Infection.
DR.. Taught OF Granville who is
county health officer has delegated TO
DR.. Edmondson the power to act in
any case OF con tagious or infectious
disease which N ay arise ia the limits
Of the Morgantow independent
School District. DR.. Edmondson is
his assistant. Up to this time the
specific authority has net been dele
gated to him.
The school on Wiles Hill has been
closed until Monday. This was done
on account Of the appearance Of case
Of scarlet fever In the school room.
A child Of Mr.. and Mrs. John H. Wiles
was seized with the Illness in school.
The building will be thoroughly fumi-
gated before the pupils are allowed in
the building. School will be opened
on Monday morning.
Ii is stated by those conversant with
the law that there is no penalty at
tached for failure OF physicians to re-
port cases Of contagious diseases to
the health officer. The law says that
such reports shall be made but it does
not impose any penalty and for this
reason caDI0t be enforced.
In the same connection it is said that
law will be introduced at the next
session OF the legislature imposing a
penalty and it will be made drastic
one. This II is thought will put an
end to the rows which have arisen over
failure to report cases to the proper
authorities.
All Of the physicians interested in
the Peasants street case of diptheria
say they do not fear any spread of the
disease from this source as they have
taken every precaution. They say
that some slight risk has been taken
by some Of the people who have had
occasion to call GA business at the
home, but this cannot be avoided.

Knsh 10 Witness tne inspiring spec
e-Arrangements made to vote
the crew at Election Tomorrow.
The first boat has gone to FaiImont.
The excitement csT its advent eclips-
ed for the time tsis0g the fury OF the
city election and the warning forces
signed a protocol which permitted the
warriors to drop their arms and hasten
10 one OF the seven thousand hills
about the city to look down on the
placid Monongahela which was being
churned into foam at the rate Of half
gallon an hour by real steam boat.
All business was suspended except
in the poker rooms, the gambling
joints, the saloons and other places of
high class amusement. The Times
was SO excited that it forgot TO get
cut special edition. Judge U. S. G..
Kendall forget to put on bis silk hat
before rushing TO view poinb and is
consequently much chagrined over the
neglect of this obyious Bit Of social
etiquette.
When the boat got close enough 1t
was found thas 1t was the Gazette
which was towing the Quaker City
Medicine company. 1t is propable
that the show and medicine will both
be in great demand although the med
icine will hardly be efficacious IN cur
ing the political ills OF the city up the
river.
As the Gazette stood about ten feet
10 its stocking feet the B. & o. bridge
did not have to be raised. The report
that the boat will proceed to Clarks-
burg is deuied by Congressman Doyen-
or who states that he is not able to
get a biz passed making the river
HdVigable on account of having to at
tend the meeting Of the order OF
whitewashers which is considering the

Notwithstanding The tremendous
excitement in Fairmont it is said that
the election will be held as scheduled
tomorrow.
A committee from the water works
board went aboard the Gazette and
finding that there were DO legal voters
on her she was allowed to tie up at
the wharf and arrangements were
made at each polling place to vote
every member Of the crew several
times. BY this means the notorious
gang which insists on purity in poll
tics and decency ia the conduct Of
