QUARANTINE RULE
SUSPENSION IS
EXPLAINED
SECRETARY TUTTlE GIVES REA-
SONS FOR NOT COMBINING
SMALLPOX PATIENTS.

Helena, Dec. iu.-t Special DIR. r
ID. futile. secretary of the state board
of health. today in an interview gave
the reasons for the order of that board
resembling the rule requiring that quar-
antine be maintained where smallpox
exists. Governor Norris has called "A
special meeting of the board for De
cember is To consider the question. I'm
his interview, DIR. Tuttle says:
Quarantine never has been and
never will be efficient and prevent the
spread OF the disease. IL affords a
sense of false security to the public
which makes il the more pernicidus
The method which experience has dem
onstratcd To be the soundest Is to take
the responsibility from the state and
place it on the individual Many a
man will not bother to be quarantincd
as long as quarantine exists, but take
away from him this seeming protec-
tion and he will be yaccinated.
-Four or five years ago Minnesota
abolished compulsory quarantine, and
since that time there has been a marked
decrease in the number OF smallpox
cases. Where before they numbered
thousands. today they number hun
dreds. Florida has adopted the same
plan and the same success has been
met with there.
In 1897 there were ie.ouB deaths
from smallpox in the Philippines. Ten
years later there We're only 3a4 deaths.
Quarantine and disinfection have been
disregarded and vaccination relied on
exclusively to stamp out the disease. In
1885 Gloucester, England, city of ia.-
600 people. was the hotbed of the anti
Saccinationists. In December of that
year smallpox broke out there. There
We're 1879 cases and 4Ss deaths. By
April $4,000 people We're vaccinatcd and
the disease disappeared by August Of
1896
Everybody would object To having Il
quarantine for measles or whooping
cough. yet the figures show that
whooping cough kilIs more people than
measles, and measles kills more than
scarlet fever. while the proportion of
deaths from smallpox is totally insig-
nificant.
In Montana last year there were S5l
cases of smallpox With the auaran-
tine removed, people will realize that
vaccination is the only safe thing. and
in this way the disease will be stamped
out
