The bulletin of the state board OF
health for the month of May con-
tains some interesting vital statistics,
collected for the month of March.
AS showing the results of modern
methods for disease treatm ents, and
as indicating the comparative danger
from different diseases, 1T Is worth
noting that there were six cases OF
tuberculosis reported, with three
deaths. The percentage of deaths to
cases reported in tuberculosis is diff
cult of analysis, for the reason that
tuberculosis is a disease of long
standing and continuance, and the
deaths reported may have no refer
ence whatever to the cases reported.
But there should be a safe analysis
made of the figures of other diseases,
and we find that of smallpox 40 cases
were reported for the month, with
no deaths, which seem to indicate
the mild nature of the disease, the
more effective treatment, or the re-
stilts of vaccination-possibly an ele-
ment of all three reasons entering
into the result. OF typhoid fever
eleven cases were reported with no
deaths, and there were 6S cases of
diphtheria with deaths. Diphtheria,
formerly one of the most malignant
and fatal of diseases, is treated with
an anti-toxin that is nearly specific
if administered in time, and before
the toxins of the disease have at
tackled the heart and kidneys and
done too much harm. Typhoid fever
is preventable by removing the
cause, and an epidemic of this dis
ease is looked upon now as a civic
reproach, in permitting the use OF
contaminated water, or the contain
ination of water from typhoid excre-
ia. Indeed, it is to the credit OF the
medical profession that malignant
and epidemic diseases have been to
, great extent prevented and, where
they arise, their terrors are lessened
! by advanced and scientific treatment.
The problem of tuberculosis is still
difficult one, but the steps being
taken now for a general public edu'
cation with respect to this disease
and the methods for it's proven
ton and cure will have good eject

. While no decision has been handed
down in the case involving the valid
ty of the bonds recently voted by the
city of Fargo to raise the sum OF
500 900 for the purpose OF building
a water works and electric lighting
and power plant, it seems likely the
court has in its conclusions taken In
to account the fact that the bonds
we're voted in a fixed sum for two
separate purposes. 1t has been held
by the court In former decisions that
appropriations by the legislature
could not be made in a fixed sum,
covering two purposes, leaving to a
commission the right to say how
much should be spent for one pur-
pose and how much for the other.
It would seem that the same reason
ing could apply to bonds, the issue OF
which is an appropriation by the
city, to be expended for two purposes
by a city council or other body. 1t
seems we'll, too, that the action to
test the validity of the bonds was
brought before there was any sale,
either to the state or to any bond
BUYERS, since the same questions,
raised after the bonds had been pur-
chased, might have meant serious
loss. However, bond buyers are usu-
ally pretty careful, and these DIS
puted questions are usually pretty
clearly settled before investments are
made.
