YAKIMA FIGHTING CoNTAGIoN.
Board OF Health and Prosecuting Mt
torney Have Responsibility.

At a special meeting Of the North
Yakima school board Wednesday
night steps were taken for the pur-
pose of preventing as far as possible
the introduction and spread of con-
tagious and other diseases in the
schools of the city and county districts,
says the Yakima Daily Republic.
Recognizing that the season HAD
about arrived for the breaking out
of some malady. such as smallpox,
diphtheria, scarlet fever. measles or
other diseases that usually afflict chill
dren. the board thought 1t best to take
time by the forelock and attempt to
do some effective work. The results

Secretary Tom Richardson, of the
Oregon Development league, wires the
East Oregonian today that a round
trip rate of one fare has been secured
over the o. r. & N. from all points
in eastern Oregon to Portland on oc-
casion of the meeting of the Oregon
Development league to be held in that
city on January 10 and 13.
The January meeting of the league
promises to be the most important

ests of every section of the state
which will be considered at chat time.
Immediately following this meeting

Although a case testing the validity
OF the state law against the sale OF
liquor to Indians has been appealed
to the supreme court, n decision will
probably not be given for some time
yet. When the appeal was made by
the defendants from this place the
suit went on the docket too late to be
decided with the other cases brought
up at that time. Consequently. 1t is
now said a decision will not be rem
dered before the spring session in
Pendleton, unless the court should
find time to dispose of 1t before that
date.
AS n decision is wanted so as to
definitely settle the constitutionality
of the state law, the delay In getting
the decision is regretted
That the sale of liquor to Indians
and consequent drunkenness among
members of the tribes on the reserva-
tion has increased since last year Is
shown by the record of arrests I'm the
police headquarters. An examination
Of the record shows that during No
vember last year 16 arrests were
hh"'e VI ihuidtlsa ioT DelnS drunk,
while the number for November this
year was 80, practically double that
of 1904. Already seven arrests have
been made this month.
OF course the number of arrests
maze does not represent the whole
number of cases of drunkenness
among the Indians, for many OF them
become drunk and get back to the
reservation without being caught.
The decision of the United States
supreme court that the federal law
against selling liquor to Indians is not
valid, has largely caused the increas-
ed traffic in "firewater," for since the
federal authorities have withdrawn
and the state law has not been en-
forced their has been really nothing
