Fighting tuberculosis.

Sanatoria for the treatment OF
tuberculosis are to be established
by law in the state of New York.
A bill, the purpose of which is
to utterly eradicate that dread
disease from the borders of the
Empire State, was recently
signed by Gov. Hughes. The
infectious disease furnishes the
basis of this legislation. Under
the provisions of the act in ques-
ton, sanatoria are to be estab-
lished and maintained under
state supervision. 1t is manda-
tory upon every practlcing phys
ician to report all cases of con-

ABOUT THEIR PLAY

Corvallis can boast a large

amateur theatricals by these
young men and women always
attract good audiences and are
greatly enjoyed.

credit. Several old favorites,
whose names are familiar to all
Corvallis theatre-goers, were in
the cast and played their parts
very cleverly.
One of these was Miss Bess

decidedly "cute," and Miss Cleo
Johnson as an elderly lady who
had seen better days, was very
good indeed.
In the masculine roles, Collie

we'll suited to his part as the
spoiled son; Ray Williams, in a
minor part, was always on hand
when needed. and Walter Gag
non, as Coddle, the butler, was a
favorite with the audience and
was always good for a laugh.
The play was very creditable
throughout and has been highly
complimented by all who attend,
ed. Good music was furnished
by an orchestra, and the stage
settings were artistic and appro-
pirate. The costumes worn by
the various players were equal to
those of many professional COM
panies and added much to the
effect of the play.

This New York law is doubt
less prompted by the best scien-
tific opinion as to the treatment
of tuberculosis in a manner that
will prevent the spread Of the
| disease; and the result of its
operation will be awaited with
interest. Similar law has been
enacted in some of the New En-
gland states, but none so far
reaching as this in New York.
1t is confidently held that open
air sanatoria treatment will cure
cases that are at all durable, and
it is the clear conviction that to
isolate the incurable cases is as
nuch a measure for the public
safety as to isolate small po1
patient. Naturally there is some
aversion to this conclusion. L
proposes a policy which appears
drastic, by reason Of the differ
ent chan acter Of the two dis
eases. But when one stops t'
think of the wholesale ravage'
of consumption, anything lik'
sound judgment commends iso
i lation in the one case as 1t woult

If you were to hack your finger or

OBJECT TO PROPOSED
RAILWAY ORDINANCES
OPEN LETTER THE COUNCIL RELATIVE TO IMPORT
MEASURES NOW BEFORE BODY.
Pensacola, April 20, 1908.

Pensacola, April 20, 1908.
The City Council of the City of Pen
sacola.
Gentlemen: Two very important
measures are now pending before your
honorable body-the two proposed or
dinances granting franchises to the
Pensacola, Alabama and Western
Railway and the Pensacola and North
eastern Railway. These two ordi
nances propose the giving by the city
of Pensacola to these two corpora
tons of all the best terminal facili-
ties for a railroad that the city has
left.
The scope of the grant, as en-
braced in the two proposed ordi-
nanceS is enormous, and the prop
erty which the franchises give to
these two corporations without COM
pensation is worth at least. one mil
lion dollars at the present time, in
Guiding, as 1t does, all the water
front between DeVilliers street and
Perdido wharf to the channel of the
bay, or to the pierhead line establish
ed by the United States government
The rights granted in the streets are
beyond all reason as, under the
ordinances, the companies could
run double tracks south from Ro-
mana street, down every street be-
tween DeVilIiers and the Perdido
Railway. II these franchises are
passed the city will have parted with
all of its most valuable waterfront
available for railroad termini, and
without any consideration whatsoever
What is the ultimate object of these
two companies? Why have the ordi-
nances been so framed as to tie up
all the most desirable terminal facili-
ties which the city now owns?
Why should the city grant all II
has to one or two corporations, how
ever much we need a road, especially
in view of the fact that Pensacola is
the natural gateway for commerce to
and from Central and South Ameri
can ports, and when the Panama
canal is completed, this city will be
in position to command a share OF
the traffic to and from the Orient and
islands of the South Pacific?
Railroads are a necessity to the
development of the wonderful advan,
tages with which nature has endowed
the Deep Water City Of the Gulf, but
the city. in granting franchises, should
be careful Of its present interests and
also act with view to securing the
greatest possible good In the days to
come. Instead Of giving all available
facilities to one or two companies, a
clause should be inserted in the ordi-
nances giving the right to any rail
way companies that may, in the fu-
ture, desire to have terminals in this
city, to use the tracks and terminal
facilities of the company or com
