STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Next meeting of Governor and Council,
Saturday, Dec. 80, at 10 A. M.

If the smallpox does not get over into
Maine during the next few weeks it will
be because of the vigilance of the au-
thOriticS who are on guard on the
frontier in that section of the State
which borders on the Province of New
Brunswick, where the disease is now
very prevalent. At Fredericton juno
ton and Tracy there are many cases,
and the disease seems to be working it's
way up toward Fredericton, and the
present heavy travel on account of the
holiday season will tax the vigilance of
the officials to do the utmost.
The fact that the United States
public health and marine hospital ser
vice has assumed charge of the inspec-
ton service which was established by
the State board of health, will relieve
the State of the expense, and the eX-
cellent work which has heretofore been
conducted by the State board will no
doubt continue.
A report received at the office of the
secretary of the State board yesterday.
from the inspector. Dr. NJ. l.. Young of
Vanceboro, states that large crowds
had been going East into the provinces.

that owing to the heavy travel the
trains had been running in two sec
tionS. He also states that during the
past week the number of people who
had been inspected was over 800 daily.
After the holidays are over the crowds
will be returning. and DR.. Young states
that when that time arrives his inspec-
ton station will be guarding the whole
of the New England states, and that it

but it is reported that III some of the
towns on the Canadian side of the line
the local boards have been lax in
action. and that at least one instance is
known where a person has remained
over night in Il house which was in
fected and then allowed to go to other
places. AT present there is no smallpox
in Maine. but with the numbers of peo-
pie who spent their Christmas in New
Brunswick. and who will soon be COM

vent TIE disease from being brought
over the line.

From the office of the state treasurer
il il learned that the amount received
:h the office during the year now draw
ing 10 q close, from the collateral in
hcIitance tax, will be large. The
amount already received is $4,000 and
il is probable that during the present
week it will be materially increased.
The amount received from the tax in
1902 was about $4,000 and in 1903 it
was $31 900. In 1901 it was $4,000, and
as during that year quite a sum was
received during the last week of the
year. it is thought the total receipts of
the present year will equal if not cX-

Friday, April IL, 1905.

We HAVE read with pleasure an
editorial written by our Brother
Ryland, of the Southside Sentinel
We often wish we could write as
calmly and dispsssionately as he, but
we confess the bile within us is some
times too easily riled by the unfair
and unjust methods of "holier than
thou" politicians. whose records, in
some cases, we know since shedding
their swaddling clothes. We had
hoped the present campaign would
be devoid of all personalities and an
imosities, but did not dare think
such would be the case. For selfish
ends the primary system was fastened
upon us, and we do not hesitate to de-
clare that we believe the Republican
party will gain the ascendancy in
Virginia within two or three years if
this farce is continued. OF course,
Ryland doesn't agree with us in this,
as in many other things political,
but time will show who has guessed
srigbt. Either the primary will
have to be abandoned or the State
turned over to the Republicans. As
an illustration-st the pace Governor
Montague has set, should Senator
Martin trot at the same gait what
fostering sores will be opened And
does any one believe the Republicans
will hesitate to take advantage of the
decrepid condition our party is left
in after a few such battles? We
have thought it beneath the dignity
of aspirants for the governorshlp or
the senatorship to blow their own
horns, and that this had better been
left to friends, but as long as these
statesmen, falling over one another
to be of service to their country.
have precipitated the clash, we trust
it will be confined to them alone.
Said Ryland in his last issue;
IF there is to be stump speaking at
all, and we seriously question its pro.
priety, IL should by all means be confined
to the candidates themselves, and should
be absolutely devoid OF everything like
personalities, II we would see the cause
OF Democracy preserved and strength.

concerned, we believe his public record
