Anti.compulsory Vaccination.

Elltpr Ice washington Herald.
The objects Of the Ant-compulsory Vac
cination Society OF the District Of Column
bia are. first. TO educate the people re-
gaTding the truth about vaccination, and.
second, 10 have a bin introduced in Con
gress for the repeal of compulsory vac
CinatiOn within the District.
Vaccination is the only medical pre-
scription which requires State indorse-
ment and compulsory laws. All other
medical practices and surgical operations
can stand on their own merits
The highest legal NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
says: NO laws are binding on the
human subject which assault the body or
violate the conscience"
Compulsory vaccination does both Of
these for many people. We demand a
square deal and liberty Of conscience for
those who do not care TO rest in a fools
paradise by having their life blood denied
to protect" % them from disease
not one in 10.O00 will ever get anyway.
The millions Of people who live in our
many States where such outrages on
nature are not tolerated by State stat
utes are not dying off from the buga-
boO-smallpOK. No city kept In a sanitary
condition, and without vaccination, has
ever been scourged with smallpox. and
no city. however well "vaccinated." but
which neglected sanitation, has ever been
in the path Of smallpox epidemic with
out suffering heavily from its condition.
The fact that no health" officer will
dare appear to defend this villainy goes
to prove that this Infamous scandal is
indefensible. If it had any scientific
basis, II would be an easy matter 10 ap-
pear in public and explain it to an audi
ence of intelligent people.
The Observation-Disclosures are not ashamed
OF their position, and they can explain
it very clearly.
Vaccination is founded on lunaey, de-
Tended by lies, and results in lockiaw.
There are four medical schools in Wash
ington, and I challenge any member Of
the faculty Of any one of them to ap-
pear in public before me and defend
vaccination. II they cannot do this. they
are then teaching falsity instead of the
truth. Who will appear to try it? Come
early TO avoid the rush!
Dr. Lesser. of Bonn, Germany. saws.
"A great number of children fail i'll every
year of scrOfula and consumption. who
without vaccination most probably would
have remained healthy all their lives"
DR.. Prof) Kranichfeld. of Berlin. saws:
Il, too, vaccinated my children at a time
when I did not know how injurious il
was. To-day I would resist If necessary
the authorities and the police law" (''Vac-
cination a Curse.'D
! have said for a long time that doc
tors who vaccinate don't know what thew
are doing. Now let us see one come out
who thinks he does know. II is high time
our legislators took some regard Of the
peoples rights. The State should be the
friend and protector of its citizens, and
not back Up this loathsome villainy. in
sututed by a set of disease manufac-
turers and disease grafters. It is a last
ing shame and outrage that American
eitizens have to get together, spend their
hard earned cash in fighting State en-
forced disease. which is spreading con-
sumption and cancer in the rising genera
ton 1t is travesty on the word free
dom to use it in connection with State
or country in which such laws are toler-
ated on the statute books for a single
day.
The law is a form Of class legislation ~
me most cowardly kind. Compulsory
disease is not conducive to life. liberty.
and the pursuit of happiness" as guaran-
teed by our Constitution. The fact that
such fool law exists shows to wbat ex-
tent our legislators have been debaucbed
by vaccine grafters.
Parents who have their children s1augb
tered by this "murderous humbug" have
no redress whatever. The doctor trust
supports all its members, except those
who come out against the lucrative blood
poisoning business. Political doctors have
many loop holes to support the covpor
ring and keep it from reproach at all
hazards.
Parents little know the insidious char
acter of the loathsome vaccine poison
The great Herbert Spencer said: "The
assumption that vaccination changes the
in relation TO smallpox and
does not otherwise change it is sheer
folly"
Sir William ]. Collins. NJ. D. NJ p.
'aid; Consumption, scrOfula. and other
blood diseases were comparatively IN
known before smallpox was introduced"
What amount of brain have the mem
oers OF the medical profession. who
imagine We can get freedom from dis
eases when they are putting the concen-
