From what has k"en learned by the
State Board Of Health regarding the
smallpox outbreak in the Province of
New Brunswick it is evident that the
distribution of the disease is wide
spread and that unless the most rigid
regulations are enforced there is every
opportunity for the spread to become
still greater. The location of the in
fected district is in Albert county and
on direct line between St. John and
Moncton, through n thickiy settled and
much travelled route. The city OF
Moncto1, where the disease has now
appeared, is a railroad center through
which passes all Of the travel from st.
John and Nova Scotia, and though at
this season of the year the travel is
seriousness of the situation resulting
from the presence of the disease in
that place can easily be seen.
That the Board of Health OF None.
ton has taken the matter in hand and
is working with a view to prevent
the spread of the disease is shown by
Il paragraph printed in the Globe, one
OF the Moncton newspapers, Feb. a.
which stated that on account Of the
smallpox outbreak two moving pic
ture theatres, and the skating rink,
had been closed by order of the board.
and that all political meetings for the
week had been called off.

A bitter factional fight Is never
good for a party and we were In hopes
that there would be no contest over
who should have the delegates from
Ohio to the Republican National con.
vention. Both Senator Foraker and
Secretary of War Taft are candidates
for the same honor, and the State
Central Committee have wisely decid-
ed to let the rank and file decide the
choice of Ohio for President at a
general primary on February IL. Polls
will be open from to p. m. and the
election conducted under the Austria
liam systsm. The ballots will be SO
printed that each voter can desig-
nate his choice by simply making a
cross mark. Nothing couldlbe fairer.
The voters are the ones who should
decide and the result should be acqui-
esed in by both parties. Every Re-
publican should attend the primary
and designate his choice. There is
no need of quarrelling and bad feel
ing. Both Foraker and Taft are
brainy and we'll equipped to ill the
ofice. There is no necessity for en-
dangering the success of the party
ticket by unnecessary squabbling.

Some very Violent criticisms are
being N lde by politicians of the call
issued for primaries to select dele
gates to the Republican State Con-
ventlon. The rank and file of the
party are pleased however. Everyone
has an equal chance aud there is no
one who is half way worthy, but can
have his name placed on the official
ballot as a candidate for delegate.
1t requires but ten Republicans to
sign a petitioni to that effect and
there are over 1000 In the county. A
very small percentage. If you are
not elected it is because the majority
don't want.you and under our form OF
government you have no kick coming.
This Is the first time general primar-
les we're ever held in the state and
gives every member of the party a
chance to express his choice and have
1t 90 recorded.
