The City Board OF Education Revokes
the Order.

At a special meeting Of the board OF
education held Friday afternoon II was
decided to at once readmit all pupils TO
/ the high school whether they have been
vaccinated or not When a case of
smallpox was discovered in the high
school last week the members Of the
board as well as the members of the
board Of health grew greatly excited
and an order was at once PROMULGATED
preventing students from attending the
school until they were provided with
! physicians certificates OF scars OF pasf
vaccinations
There was a slump in the attendance
for the first day or so while the pu-
pills skirmished for old scars or visited
physicians and made arrangements for
new ones. All of the 1000 pupils have
fulnlled the requirements made by the
ruling OF the board with the exception
OF 20 and their names will be furnished
to the board Of health and they may
make such rulings as they see fit but
as Tar as the school board is concerned
they will be admitted to school
The following resolution was adopted
by the bolrd at their meeting Friday:
In view OF the fact that the best
medical authorities of the country be-
Heve that by vaccination the effects Of
smallpox is lessened and its spread
checked. the city board Of health con-
curing in the above view. that we, as
a board, recommend that all pupils OF
the city schools who have not been vac
cinated effectively be vaccinated
That we admit all Of the pupils now
out of school by the vaccination order
heretofore issued by the superintendent
and that the names Of those who have
not been vcccfnated be furnished to the
board of health for such action as u
may wish to take with reference to
such persons"
Tie board also voted to dismiss the
North Topeka schools on the afternoon
Of March % so that they may partici-
pate in the general securing and clean
ing up that part Of the city will be sub
jected to on that day. A holiday was
also declared Friday, April 5. so that
teachers desiring may attend the meet
ing Of the North Kansas Teachers as

Catarrh of the respiratory organs is
a common ailment in Canada for al
least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused
by the long, severe winters expert
enced in this part of the continent
Therefore, when Peruna was dis
covered by Canadian people TO be a
reliable remedy for these catarrhal dis
eases, ii at once became a popular
medicine, not only among individuals
and in families, but in the great hos
tentative and relief in hundreds of
cases
These institutions do not hesitate to
give their endorsement of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat
ment of their poor and sick.
Among these institutions IS that or
the Sisters of Good Shepherd. who
gave the following endorsement:
The Peruna Company,
Columbus, Ohio,
Having used Peruna for the past
few months, for our sick and poor,
we are happy to say that it has given
US great satisfaction.

PERIODICAL PRETENSE.

The correspondent OF the Register
and Leader from Washington comes
out again with his periodical pre-
tense concerning the condition OF SEN
ator A llison for the evident purpose
of impressing the people of the state
with the idea that he is becoming feeb-
lie and unfit to perform the duties OF
his high Office. 1t is rumored in
Washington says the correspondent,
not that he is i'll, but that he is not
rugged enough to warrant his return
to Congress next winter to remain
during the long session; and that
great doubt is expressed as to whether
he will allow his name to be used as a
candidate for another term; that while
these rumors cannot be verified they
come from such sources that they can
not be disregarded. In this connec-
ton it may be well to read the follow
ing from Bernard Murphy of Vinton
who was the former state printer:
Il uOIO 10 hOIiilhS III 0uOoO iOPoibo

went with Mr.. Tobin to Dubuque when
he assumed his duties as collector and
on Wednesday, May |, we had an
hours talk with the senator in his
home. / want to say that the senator
has won back his old color. is in good
flesh, steps off with aspringy gait, and
is as alert and apparently as well as
he was before his illness of year
ago. Moreover, the trouble that then
promi sed to become chronic has al
most entirely disappeared, and it is
not bothering him at all. The sena-
tor has not suddenly become deaf, as
one story goes, is not figuring on
quitting his work in Washington, is
not on the decline, and is not worrying
about his health. The worrying
seems to be all with the Washington
political romancers."

POLITICAL SUICIDE.

When Andrew Johnson WAS impeach.
ed for misdemeanors in the Office OF
President of the United States, Ed
mund G. Ross was republican sena-
tor from the state of Kansas. The
sentiment of his party and state was
strongly against Johnson and sena-
tor Ross was expected to vote for his
conviction. But instead of voting &C.
cording to the sentiment of the people
he voted according to his best judg-
ment and his oath of office, for the
acquittal of Mr.. johnson after hearing
the evidence. BY doing SO he com.
mitted political suicide and was prac-
tically driven from the state. Since
that time he has made his home in
New Mexico, where he died in poverty
q short time ago. We hear much talk
in favor of a mans standing up and
voting for what he believes to be right
but he dosen't receive much sympathy
when he goes contrary to public senti.
ment.

THAT BAD MAN ELKlNS.

We notice that within week the
Milwaukee Railway Company, thro
its attorney, has pleaded guilty on
two indictments recently returned
against the road for the granting of
rebates in violation of the Elkins law
and paid fine OF twenty thousand
dollars. Within year or two we
have seen long chapters Of abuse in
which the public were assured that
Senator Elkins was an exceedingly
bad man and in favor of the corpora
tons against the people. But this
law under which the courts are pro-
scouting and timing the railway com
panies for rebating was introduced
and passed before any of his traduc-
ers had seen the light and become re-
formers. Elkins was a bad man to
have the foresight and judgment TO
secure the passage of such a law be-
fore the time of the reformer had
GENE to bring light and projection to
the people.

HUGHES SCORES A VICTORY.

Governor Hughes of New York has
scored notable victory the last week
in securing the passage Of his public
utilities bill by unanimous vote Of
the house and good majority in the
senate. The bill provides for two
commissions appointed by the COVER
nor which are given power to fix
reasonable rates and enforce safe and
adequate facilities. No bonds nor
stocks can be legally issued. Nor
transfers or mergers made without the
consent of the commissions. 1t pro-
vides for prompt Investigations of
accidents, forbids free passes by car
riers and rebates in any form. This
is a great victory for Governor
Hughes and puts him in the Roose-
welt class. He is a man of very large
ability and intense honesty; and he
has handled the "big stick" in the
New York legislature with remark
able success. Taft and Hughes would
make winning ticket

The fact that the Beef Trust fought
a proposed law to this effect. last yenr,
only goes to emphasize the necessity
that exists for one.
According to all accounts the canned
goods Of the Beef Trust are bad enough
when comparatively new, without UNI
loading Oh the public canned goods that
have been years In a warehouse.
More than that, the government
should compel the packers to pay all
the expenses Of meat inspection.
The government should also inspect
all meat IN transit.
Lately the Beef Trust has been
branching out and gobbling up other
lines OF business.
1t controls the meat business.
1t controls the poultry trade.
1t controls the egg market.
1t controls the hide market.
II controls the boot and shoe trade.
And lately 1t has stepped Into the
control Of large part Of the vegetable
market.
1t Is the Beef Trust and the Beef

quarter to two cents a pound. For
very high grade meat. they pay as
high as five or six cents pound.
The trust utilizes every portion of the
