THE COUNTYS
HEALTH OFFICERS

The health of the people of Elko
county, judging from the number
Of health officers on the county
pay roll, should be beyond suspi-
cion. At the last meeting of the
commissioners. salaries of SIS q
month each were paid to the fol-
lowing health officers, all If whom
are practicing physicians: C. E.
Secor, T. N. Harper, H. A.
Paradis, f. Dunscombe, H. E.
Colby, and A. C. Olmstead, and
$25 to DR.. C. West, local health
officer. making in all Sis per
mont for which the people receive
practically no benefit, so far as the
ordinary individual can see. Their
duties under the law being the
collection of vital statistics and
reporting same to the proper
fficials.
| We have been unable to find any
authority in the law creating the
state board of health, for the
appointment of so many health
officers in this county. The law
says: "The local health off Ger in
each county shall act as collector
of vital statistics and is en-
powered to appoint such deputies
as may be necessary with the ap-
proVal of the county commits.
sioners." The law does not say
the commissioners must approve
the appointments of deputies made
by the loacal health officer. The
duties of the deputy health officer
under the law is tn register and
compile the data prescribed ty
the state board of health and the
law. So far as we are able to
find in the law, they have no other
duties.
The law does not state, or at
least W. have been unable TO find
it in the law, how the local health
officer is appointed. He seems
to drop into the place from an I'M
seen source.
There is no doubt. however, of
his being there. No ordinary
citizen objects to proper and
necessary precautions for the
preservation of the health of the
people and none object to the
expense necessary to protect the
people from an epidemic of conta-
geous diseases. But that is not
the case under consideration. The
people are paying seven physicians
in this county every month to col.
lect vital statistics. The only
physicians we know in this county
who are rot on the county pay roll
are DR.. Mcdowell of Elko and DR..
Hagar of Ruby valley.
The grand jury might devote
some time 10 the investigation of
this matter with benefit to the tax
payers. We respectfully refer
the matter to that body for in
vestiR alton.

COLLAPSED FROM EXPOSURE

AS Thomas Vowel, the Southern
Pacific track rider, was coming up
the track to town apbout noon, he
noticed an old man lying beside
the track. He tried to put him
on the speeder to bring him to
town, but was unable to do so. He
then made a fire for the man and
came to town and reported to the
officers.
Judge Klatte and Joe Tab err,
steward of the county hospital,
took an auto and went in search of
the man. They found him where
Mr.. Yowell had left him and
brought him to town. He was
taken to the county hospital,
where he was resting comfortably
at last reports. When found, he
was pretty near exhausted from
fatigue and exposure and nearly
frozen as the fire made by Mr.
Vowel had died out.
He gave his name as Charles
Gear and his age as 65 years He
said he was walking from the coast
to Colorado He was comfor-
tally dressed and wore an over
coat. He laid out in the cold and
storm for several nights and his
collapse was due to fatigue and
exp sure. He told Mr.. Taber at
the hospital that he was from
PirtSburg, Pennsylvania.
