Fever RACES: No Quarantine.

Madison.-If in the future the city
of Wausau, where scarlet fever is
epidemic, shall fail to quarantine in
fectious diseases, the state will take
charge of the situation and charge
the expense up to the city. The state
board of health will issue this ulti-
matum if necessary. For four years
the Wausau authorities had not quar-
antined a single case of contagious
disease. Doctors Of the city asserted
that scarlet fever now prevalent came
from Edgar, village near by, but it
develops that Edgar was free from
contagion until it came from Wausau.
The health officials of Wausau main
tanned that public sentiment was
against public quarantine, and that
the regulation was unnecessary, but
the state has compelled the measure.
At present there are between forty
and fifty cases of scarlet fever there.
