EV VANSTON IS
D | SP 0SED
TO OBJECT

J l. Wicks, health officer of Evan
ston, Wyoming. objects to the state
ment that Evanston Is spreading
smallpox throughout this section. He
tells OF negro. who was shipped
from Ogden while afflicted The col.
ored man had been placed on train
for Ogden and when he reached here
was Immediately advised to return
home by the first freight.
A strange thing In connection with
this issue is that Ogdenltes. appar-
entity in good health. soon after ar
rIying In Evanston are subjects for
the pesthouse, Either they are slow
In breaking out in Ogden. or the dis
ease awaits them on their arrival In
Evanston.
The communication OF Mr.. Wicks
Is as follows.
Il notice an article from Ogden In
which Evanston is severely critised
as to the manner In which they quar-
antlne for smallpox, and the state
ment Is made that many cases OF
smallpox are coming from Evanston
to ogden.
Now the facts OF the matter are
that Ogden and other Utah points
have supplied Evanston with small
poX FOR the past ten yenrs. Ten years
ago we had the first cases here for
many years previously and we traced
the origin OF these cases to Ogden In
1904 there was n colored man found
in tine railroad yards here with small
poX and on inquiry as to where he
came from he stated that he came
from the Ogden pest house He was
Isolated and we had no cases follow
Ing. In 1907 there was a carpenter
who came from ogden TO work on the
government building at this place. He
knew that he had been exposed TO
smallpox. yet he worked among his
fellows and succeeded In injecting
three OF them with the disease Ear
ly in the summer Of 1893 there was a
brlcklaycr came to Evanston from
Ogden TO work on the state hospital
at this place. A few days after he
took sick with smallpox. and know
ing what he had. kept quiet and short
ly after went to work Soon his wife
took down and the matter was re-
ported to the health authorities, ard
they were Quarantined. Six cases re-
suited from this In June 1909
grading foreman working for the I'm
ion Pacific at Spring Valley. Wyo..
went TO Bountlful, Utah. 20 visit his
family who we're reported sick Socn
after his return he broke out with
smallpox. He was properly taken care
OF and no cases followed
Our present epidemic. which start
ed the latter part OF November. 1909.
resulted from an Evanston family Wis
itine Utah We have at present but
one family Quardntined. We are posi-
tive that no cases which were re-
ported to the health authorities have
been permitted 10 go as stnted by the
ogden correspondent There may
have been one or two cases gotten
away from Evanston without ever con-
sulting a doctor, II this Is the case 1t
simply means that chickens are 60
Ing home TO roost
Utah has had The smallpox for the
past ten years and will have 1t for a
long time In the future. and will be
able to supply many states simply be.
cause they do not compel. or advise.
their people TO be vaccInated. which
IS the only rational way to treat
smallpox So We would suggest to
the Ogden authorities. make yourself
clean before crlticiSlng your neigh
bors. VaccInate your population"
