PLANSTO ISOLATE
C0NTAGI0N CASES
Poor Committee Will Ask the
Board Of Supervisors to
Conduct Investigation.
SEPARATE BUILDING URGED
Inmates of County Inf1rmary Expos
ed to Disease Under Prevail
ing Arrangement.

Supervisors of Rock Island hare
been brought face to face with the
proposition Of taking care Of INDECENT
persons who are afflicted with dread
and contagious disease. At present
the only place to take care of these
people is at the county inf1rmary, ex-
posing other inmates of the institu-
ton.
The idea in minds of certain mem
bers of the poor committee Is to pro
vide a building, where these people
may be given attention. 1t has been
suggested that nurses be engaged to
take care of patients suffering from
contagious diseases, If the first plan is
not considered feasible.
A resolution will be presented to
the board of supervisors Monday ask
ing that a committee Of five be mani
ed to make an investigation and re-
port at the next meeting of the board.
CONDITIONS ARE SERIOUS.
Conditions are serious" said a
member of the poor committee. This
week q woman was taken to. the in
Urinary for want of another place to
care for her. The hospitals of Rock
Island and Moline would not accept her.
There should be a detention hospital
with trained nurses to care for cases
of this kind 1t is thought that cree
ton of a detention HOSPITAL is too ex-
pensive a proposition, nurses should
be provided. Women at the infirmary,
on whom will devolve care of this in
mate, should not be exposed.

everything save speed, which is fixed

everything save speed, which is fixed
by the law.
The bill readjusts the state auto
mobile license fees upon a horse
power basis, and the increase is ex-
pected to swell the state treasury
$250,000 annually. The act contem-
plates that the money shall be dis
road purposes.
In addition to putting "joy riders
out of business the bill demolishes
the graft of. garage-keepers who
stick tacks into tires in order to sell
new ones. A 5000 fine or six months
in jail is provided for anyone who
accepts or offers a bonus for repairs
or the sale of parts. and the same
penalty applies to anyone who uses
a car without the owners consent.
Chauffeurs are to be examined and
intoxication is to be followed by rev.
ocation of license for a year.
CHANGE NUMBER PLATES.
A different colored number plate
for each year is provided. This will
not only give the police line on fee
dodgers, but 1t will also add to the
wheel tax revenue. Six-inch numbers
must be used with light so reflected
that the sign can be read $50 feet
away. Switches by which the occu-
pants of cars can turn off the rear
lights and the use of chains on as
phalt streets are forbidden.

"That was what 1t was intended 10
do" remarked Senator Stone.
Mr.. Norris claimed that the amend
ment was inconsistent with the pur.
pose of the agreement. The fact tnat
the United States has been shlpplng
more paper into Canada than IS sent
from there into this country Is PROOF
he claimed, that it can be produced
here at lower figure than In CANADA.
When Mr.. Norris had concluded,
Altoona Aldrich of Beloit, Wis, manu-
facturer Of paper machines, spoke IN
opposition to the bill. The committee
then adjourned until tomorrow.

A bill declaring every contract, con.
spiracy or combination in restraint OF
trade" illegal, and imposing heavy PEN
alties on officers connected with them.
and branding violations as felon1es,
has been introduced by Representative
Smith of Illinois. His measure would
permit government seizure of any Of

sit and would allow threefold damages
to losers through restraint of trade.
