bile Register, always one of the most
conservative newspapers in the
South, has the following to say on this
phase of the matter:
There should be no hesitancy in
saying that the Louisiana Board of
Health has acted rather recklessly
with the health of the people of the
gulf coast. Acknowledging now that
there was danger in the health condi.
lions of New Orleans nearly one
month ago, that board admits, after
Mobile health authorities have forcea'
the admission, that the disease is yell
low fever. The long incubation has
given time for the establishment of
many foci Of disease in New Orleans
and ii is indeed wonder that some of
the sick have not moved to other
places and there spread the disease.
There has been no quarantine restric-
ton against such movement until Fri
day, and nothing was done in New Or.
leans to warn the people outside to be
on their guard against persons from
the infected center or persons sick of
the fever If fever should occur soon
at any point outside the city of New
Orleans, we shall charge it to the neg
ligence and bad faith of the health
board of New Orleans and Louisiana.
The bad faith consists in this: The
board was pledged to keep neighbor-
ing boards Informed as. to suspicious
cases so that steps for self-protection
could be taken. but it failed to do so.
In fact, down to the arrival of the
Mobile health authorities In New Or
leans there was still a pretense that
nothing had happened to disturb the
serenity of the health conditions of
the Crescent City.
What will be the result of this in
the future? Simply that we should
not be able to trust the louisiana
board. 1t may say that there is good
health but It will not be believed I'm.
less there is proof of the truth; we
shall always be suspicious Of New Or
leans in summer because we cannot
tell when it is healthy and when it is
not We shall suspect that there is
politics in that board and that its
members prefer to try to hide the
facts for the benefit of New Orleans
than to obey the recognized rule of
them for the benefit OF the
people of all this Southern country.

a Judges Stern Words
of Rebuke.

A Tampa man-Capt. Chas. L. Parl
recently went home al an unexpect
ed hour and found his wife and
friend of the family" in a position
whose suspicious circumstances coult
not be explained anyway, whereupor
the defler of Capt. Parks home DIRE y
his gun and shot the agrieved hus
band, seriously wounding him and
only falling to kill him from the fact
. that the bullet did not strike a vita
organ.
This moral leper, who had deserted
his own home, ruined another mans
home, and made an attempt on the
life Of the man whose friendship he
had outraged, was indicted for assault
with intent to murder, and was con.
victed Of aggravated assault.
The crime for which this man was
indicted carries with it a penalty of
20 years in the penitentiary, but the
one Of which he was convicted pro.
vides as maximum penalty only one
year in Jail In passing sentence,
Judge H. c. Gordon. who presided at
the trial, said:
This court does not set itself I'D as
a preacher or a refOrmer, but feels il
is proper, under the circumstances. to
speak plainly on this occasion.
In all civilized countries the right
o. man to protect the honor of his
family is recognized. even where there
is little honor to protect.
By your own testimony YOU are
guilty of assault with intent to muir
der. There was ample evidence TO
support the charge, and IL the Jury
had convicted you the court would
have given you the full extent of the
law.
Even in savage countries the sane.
tity Of the home is recognized. I am
convinced that my construction of the
law on this subject is based on sound
common sense and Il will continue
20 be the law in this court while am
on the bench, until my decision is re.
Fersed by some other court.

may affect Won. or Mr. Park. or any
other individual The question is the
preservation of the home in this county
and state. No matter what may be a

you. a married man, had no right TO

Jity Of another's IL were passine
sentence on my own brother for a
crime like yours would give him the
extreme penalty.
The sentence OF the law is that Won
be confined in the county fail AT hard
labor for a period Of one year.
Every good citizen and every home
in Florida will thank Judge Gordon
Tor his severe words of condemnation
and for his position in this matter. T.
Is only to be regretted that the Jury
did not see the case as did the Judge.
It would have meant 10 more years
for the wretch who now gets of with
but one year.
The jury's verdict was a travestyI
on Justice so far as the defendant him
self was concerned, but Judge Gordon's
singing rebuke ought to have a salu,
tory effect on others who NAV be in
clined TO the crime of which the evi.
dence showed the defendant to he

WIND BLOWS.

For three days this week Dougl las Island has suffered a repetition of the kind of weather that caused so much anxiety to householders last winter. The wind has come over the hill. How ever, the fact that light fall of snow covers the ground is a relief. It is also 8 source of qualification to know that the water system is in perfect order. Special watchmen are kept out, both day and night.
 Notwithstanding all this, it behoves the people of the Island to be vigilant at all times; watch the stove, the stove pipes and if no fire is allowed to start we are all safe.
 Douglas has been very lucky in this respect, but at any time a fire might destroy half of the town. Frame build ings will burn, and when heavy wind is blowing fire fighting is uphill work.
