REPORTING OF
TUBERCULOSIS

Reporting of living cases of tuber-
culosis is now required by law or
health regulation in Is states, while
in % states and territories, no pro-
vision whatever is made for keeping
record of cases of this infectious dis
ease, according to a statement pub
lished by the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis in it's official organ, the Journal OF
the Outdoor Life for June.
Several cities in non-registration
states, as for instance, Chicago, Cleve-
land, st. Louis, and New Orleans,
have local ordinances requiring that
tuberculosis be reported. In all, there
are about 100 cities in the United
States which have ordinances of this
nature.

The law relating to the building of
sidewalks in cities has been so amend
ed as to provide that in cases where
such walks are built by the city and
charged up to the owner of the :but-
ting lots, the lot owner may elect to
pay for same in not to exceed five an
nual installments. The city may in
such case issue bonds bearing not more
than six per cent interest to cover the
cost of such walks, the interest to be
charged against the respective lot
owners and collected with the install
ments on cost of walks. This law will
be boon to many lot owners, payment
for walks in single year often prov
ing burdensome.

Attorney General Wickersham says
that the Tobacco Trust decision was 8
glorious victory. The managers of the
trust likewise are smiling and happy
over the prospect of the court helping
them reorganize and get within the
law. This is perhaps the first time
that both parties to law suit are per.
fectly satisfied. 1t will be noticed ir
this connection that while Wickershan
claims victory, he doesn't specify
anything gained that will benefit the
common people.

THE FRONT

WISCONSIN TO
THE FRONT
All eyes will be turned upon our
great Commonwealth for the next year
and half. People everywhere will
ask what will Wisconsin do? This is a
great crisis in the history of our state.
The bill submitting the question of
Woman's Suffrage to the voters has
passed the assembly on May 16, 40 to
18. 1t is to be voted upon in Novem-
Der 1912. Everyone is rejoicing. But
this is only the beginning. The real
work is to come. Every voter must be
reached before the election in 1912.
We shall need the best efforts of every
earnest person. Men will be benefited
by this measure as much as women,
and they can far more effectually in
fiuence the voters. The responsibility
for the result rests largely upon them.
They have the means which permit
them to do noble things.
There is wealth in Wisconsin and
Wisconsin Suffragists must raise their
own money. The men and women of
Wisconsin must work out their own
salvation and they are abundantly
able to do it. No such great boon as
freedom can come to any people with
out sacrifice. We cannot get the bal
lot for our women without working for
it. 1t is the wish of the officers of the
Wis. w. S. A. that every woman
should engage in the work first of all,
by holding meetings about the various
towns of her own country for the pur-
pose Of organizing, where possible, or
at least for the appointment of a COM
mittee of correspondence. The board

Back from Alaska

M. G. Thomas returned from Alaska
where he spent the summer developing
quartz mine which has proved to be
very valuable, last Saturday.
He says he has nine claims in the
group. 1t will be remembered that a
ton OF ore from this property was ship
ped to the Tacoma smelter about six
weeks ago and netted him almost one
hundred dollars after paying freight and
smelter charges.
Mr.. Thomas brought some forty
pounds Of the ore back and is distribut-
ing it among his friends. He says the
ore sent to the smelter came from the
surface and thinks that after depth is
gained it will increase in value.

Work On SteeI COmpany's Spur

In converatio with Road
master P. F. Conley one day this week
it was learned that the delay in order
ing the spur track for the Washington
Steel & Iron Co. was caused by the
plans calling for spur track leaving the
main line just east Of the yard limits.
This it was learned might interfere with
the movement of mail and passenger
trains and the St Paul Office ordered a
survey made from some siding to the
steel company's plant. This, says Mr..
Conley, has been done, and work on
the spur will commence at an early
date. General Manager Rothert of the
steel company said one day this week
that the delay was causing him no end
OF annoyance, but that he was simply
at the mercy of the company unless the
state railroad commission would give
his company relief.

pose Of the company to install an cleo
tric power plant to develop from four to
six thousand horse power. After string
ing a cable across the river and build
ing boat the crew has spent the past
few days taking final measurements of
the banks and soundings in the stream
and such other data as will be neces-
sary in preparing the working plans for
the dam. After the plans are prepared
bids will be called for and the contract
for the dam will be let.

POOL ROOM IS ROBBED
Thieves Enter Store at Early Hour and
Make Clean Getaway

By removing a pane Of glass, in the
rear Of the building, thieves entered
the Club pool room Wednesday morn
ing between the hours OF / and and
appropriated Meerschaum pipes and
cigas to the amount of $50.
AS yet no clue has been found as to
who committed the theft. Mr.. Burce
who handles the night shift says two
men came into the store about 1880
just as he was preparing to close up
and asked him about work. And from
their action he believes that they are
the men who did the job. After clos
ing up he went to the depot to find out
about the trains and finding them to
be few hours late. decided to remain
up until they arrived. He says he
opened the store again about 5 O'Clock
to get a package Of cigarettes, and at
that time everything appeared to be all
right, although no examination was
made.
A list of the stolen articles were given
to Marshall Fitz who is notifying all the
towns along the line to keep their eyes
open for men trying to sell pipes.
Moore and Burce are offering 800
reward for the arrest and conviction
of the guilty parties.
A robbery occurred in Spokane several
weeks ago in which large quantity OF
pipes were stolen and it is the belief Of
Marshall Fitz that the same men COM
mitted both crimes.
Tuesday evening between the hours
OF and 6 as Mr.. Brunner, proprietor
of the Overland Hotel was partaking of
his evening meal some one entered his
bed room and took purse containing
a little over 81 and it is thought that
the same parties are guilty Of this Of
tense.

DEER LAW CAUSES CRIME
Cheian County SpOrtsmen Attack Law
Closing Season November

Chelan county sportsmen are not
favorable to the new deer law that
makes the open season only from
September / until November /, says
the Wenatchee World. The hunters
are severely criticising the ill-advised
statute and promise to make strong
effort to have it amended so as to per-
NIT deer hunting in November.
Washington never had game law
calculated to make more criminal than
the one that confines the open season
for deer hunting to the period between
September to November l." says a
well known sportsman. The first
snow of the season anaugurated what
would, Of course, be excellent deer
shooting. The local sportsmen are
disguised at law which makes the
present season a closed one. There is
little chance for successful hunting be-
fore snow falls and this year with shoot
ing unlawful during November, the
number Of illegal killing will do much
to undo legislative work of years, bring
ing the law into disrepute as well as
making it more difficult to enforce
moderate legislation in the future"
Instead of saving the deer by the
limiting Of the open period, just the
opposite will result. Statistics show
that so per cent of deer are wounded
by hunters with 90 per cent of these
tracked and killed over the snow and
about 90 per cent escaping to die in
isolated spots during the dry weather" "
The hunter who wounds two deers and
trails them over the snow probably
shoots four or FIVE before he gets the
limit in November"
There will be an organized effort all
over the state to have this law changed
when the legislature meets in January,
1918.

BETTER CARE OF HORSES
Don't Leave Your Animals Unprotected
From the Cold

A number OF complaints have reached
this Office the past week Of persons ty-
ing up horses on the side streets, and
letting them stand for hours at a time,
and even all night long. There the
poor beasts stand sometimes knee deep
in slush and ice, without so much as a
blanket thrown over them.
Most people who live in the out-ly-
ing districts, when they come to town
for any length OF time, put there teams
in a stable. But there are some who
have no sympathy for the animals, and
think nothing.of letting them stand tied
to hitching post for half the night or
more.
The man who would treat his horses
in such manner is not worthy Of any
consideration, and We would suggest
that anyone finding horse tied up to
hitching post for more than two hours,
unless properly cared for, report the
same to the marshal and the person
owning the animal be punished by
fine.
Most of the cities and towns thruout
the country have humane societies,
whose business it is to look into such
cases as this, and animals found tied up,
are taken to feed stable, where they
are fed and cared for. and owners made
to pay the bill. Unfortunately Leaven-
worth has no such organization.
That men are all heartless and crael,
it is hard to believe, and in most cases
of this kind, the owner doesn't give the
matter a thought. But he should be
made to think and something should be
done to work towards this end.
