FULTON UNEASY
Over a Possible Visitation OF
a Smallpox Epidemic.

The Fulton Commercial is alarmed
over a possible epidemic and says:
Smallpox seems to be getting a
complete hold on the country within
a radius of so miles of Fulton. Cairo
has been affected with this disease
some four or five weeks, in q severe
form, and running into hundreds of
cases. The country roundabout has
with few exceptions made no effort
to quarantine against Cairo. If the
disease was not contagious, it would
be all right to give it no more atten-
ton than if it were only common,
ordinary chills raging throughout
the country. But for the sake of
the citizens of Fulton, the public
schools as well, we think IAN ounce
of prevention is worth a ton of
cure" and the line ought to be
drawn somewhere. DR.. Cohn has
been doing all in his power to con-
fine those afflicted, and to keep those
who have beer exposed, from ming
ling too conspicuously upon the main
thoroughfares Of the city and at
public gatherings; hut his effort re-
mains so far unaided, and it is not to
be expected that he alone can keep
the disease confined. Those over the
country having the disease, and those
having been exposed, should by all
possible means be kept confined I'M
til its danger of spreading is aba
ted"
About a month ago a case Of small
pox was discovered in this city, hav.
ing been brought in from Paducah.
Under direction of the city authori-
ties, the health officer, DR.. R. L.
Woodland, took hold of the matter
with the utmost vigor and within AZ
hours the man had been moved out
of town and was being cared for in
an isolated building, while vaccina
ton was forced upon all who had
been exposed. The disease was
nipped in the bud. The sick man
was discharged two or three weeks
ago and there has been no further
of the disease. Small
pox is not hard to handle if taken in
time. The disease was hustled out
of town so promptly, that this notice
will be the first intimation the pub
lie will have had that even one case
has been here for several years.

STANLEYS SEAT
Is Coveted by Several Aspir-
ing Politicians.

Although Congressman A. 0. Stan
ley, Of the Second Kentucky district,
has only just begun his fourth term
in congress, the lines are already be-
ing drawn for the election Of his sue
cessor. Whether or not Mr., Stanley
will be in the fight is question. He
has told numerous friends that he
will be a candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor in
1911, but it is understood that he
wants to retain his seat in congress
until he has landed the governorship.
His term now beginning will expire
on March 4, 1911, only three or four
months before the gubernatorial
convention.
The fight for the Democratic nom
nation for congressman will proba-
bly, be more lively next year than at
any time since the day of Polk Laf-
foon. There are several men in the
district who want to go to congress
and believe that their chances are
good. While he has not formally an
nounced his candidacy, LaVega
Clements. of this city, will be can
didate. Hopkins county is practical
ly certain to have a candidate, in the
person of either Judge c. G. Givens
or D. H. Kincheloe. Col. VIM. E.
Bourland, Of Webster county, would
like to get into the race but will
probably not do so against Givens,
who is native of Bourland's county

his fourth term, is from Henderson
