Against Gogebic Normal

'KEOKUK HAD LUCKY
ESCAPE FROM STORM
Surrounding Towns Were all Hit
Very Much Harder by the Storm
Of Sunday Night.

More complete reports of the storm
from surrounding towns indicate that
Keokuk was hurt less by the storm OF
Sunday night than her neighbors. At
Quincy the walls of the Dayton plant
recently destroyed by fire were
blown down, street car service Grip

down. At Fort Madison car was
blown off switch, a stack blown
down which fell through the boiler

and considerable other damage was
done. At Burlington houses We're
unroofed and chimneys blown down.
Late reports of the wind-swept dis

A number OF bills dealing with health
administration have been introduced
and much time has been spent in
formulating what are hoped TO be
wise measures. This is particularly
true regarding the proper care OF tu-
berculosis. A growing belief among
the members of the assembly that ade-
Guate hospital care is for consump-
tives. has resulted In measures which
will empower counties to make ade-
quate provision for INDECENT persons
suffering with tuberculosis and who
cannot properly care, for themselves.
and increased equipment at Oakdale.
The appeal is at once humane, while
on the other hand it involves the
still greater consideration of proven
ton.
To properly care for the advanced
consumptive is wise state craft. The
people generally should become inter
ested in these measures which have to
do with the prevention of tuberculosis
and it is hoped that encouragement
may be given to every representative
and senator to provide for a greas
hopeless class who must perish with
out help The representatives in the
Legislature desire TO do the best pos
sihle for all concerned but it is neces-
sary that intelligent cooperation of
the people In general shall be given
to men who make our laws.
