ANTI-TYPHoID VACCINATION

DR.. Jeffersol Randolph Kean of the
United States army, has the follow
ing to say in an article on "The Sani-
tary Record of the Maneuver Divis-
ion" in Texas during the summer of
last year:
Perhaps one-fourth of the troops
arrived in San Antonio already i'm
munized by voluntary anti-typhoid in
oculations given them at their posts.
1t was concurrently determined by
the division commander and the war
department that the time had arrived
to make this procedure compulsory
for troops taking the field, and it was
so ordered and carried out as rapidly
as the prophylactic culture could be
supplied from the laboratory of the
army medical school. The technic
was simple. The site of the puncture,
usually the outer side of the left arm,
was spCnged off with alcohol and a
small area sterilized with tincture of
iodin, the injection made with ster-
lie syringe and the puncture sealed
with collodion. The first dose is 0.5
c. c., the second and third being l c.
c. each An interval of ten days is
allowed between doses, the entire pro-
cedure thus taking twenty days. The
injection is made into the subcutane-
Gus connective tissues and not into
the muscles. There was practically
no puncture infection, and the reac-
ton was mild or absent in 80 per
cent. of the cases treated. In no case
was it followed by serious results.
There were S097 men immunized up
to July II
Some think that vaccination is
fraught with great danger. Even if
vaccination could be proved to be a
really dangerous operation, that
would not affect the argument as to
its efficacy in preventing and mitigat-
ing smallpox. The alleged dangers
of vaccination have been grossly eX-
aggerated.
More than 100 British medical Of
fcers of health have signed a mani
festo saying that while they give due
weight to the value Of sanitation they
believe the only trustworthy protec-
ton known against smallpox is vacci-
nation and re-vaccination. These med
ical officers of health have no pecu-
mary interest in vaccination.
Remember that diphtheria antitoX-
in prevents diphtheria if given in inn
munizing doses, just as vaccination
prevents smallpox But the immunity
lasts only a short while-two to four
weeks. This, however, gives time to
get the patient up.

45o miles of itsroad through Mon.
tana and northern Idaho, is being
followed by other western roads and
II is claimed that as a result a total
of 10000 miles Of what is now
steam railroad in the west will be
electrified within the next few years.
The Denver & Rio Grande is also
taking up abe same plan.
It is claimed that the grades en-
countered in the mountainous re-
gions of the west, including Idaho,
have forced railroad operators TO
look to electricity as the power to
help them out of the difficulty and
reduce the cost of operation. For
the handling of freight trains there
are electric locomotives that weigh
$50 tons and have a traction power
of $4,000 pounds, starting. In the
belt line tunnel under Baltimore one
of these giant motors has no diff
Guilty in drawing an ls0O-ton train
up the one and one.half per cen
grade, while three steam locomo-
tives with their tenders weighing
$40 tons have great difficulty in
performing the same service. The
western electric motors used on
railroads are built two In sections,
each of which weighs 30 tons. The
western type Of steam locomotives
such as are used for heavy passen-
ger service, weigh about rs tons.
The freight steam locomotives
weigh 80 to 100 tons so that the
electrical lsO-tou engine has twice
the hauling power. By placing two
Of these motors together one man
can control $500 horsepower.
The electric power companies
said to be figuring on the bids are
in position, claim local railroad
men, to furnish the Oregon Short
Line with an unlimited amount OF
electric power to electrify not only
the main line but all the feeding
lines If desired.

OREGON SHORT LINE MAY
ELECTRIFY ITS SYSTEM
It IS Said the Company has under Consideration
Plans for Replacing Steam with Electric
Power-0ther Roads Using Electricity.

That the Oregon Short Line is
seriously considering the electrify-
ing of its entire railroad system in
southern Idaho from Pocatello or
Montpelier on the east to Hunting
ton on the west is the information
that has been reliably given to
Boise men who are in close touch
with the operations of that road
says the Boise Capital News. They
have been informed that the Oregon
Short Line has asked the large
electrical power companies operat-
ing in the southern part Of this
state to submit bids on The furnish
ing of this power, basing their fig
ures on the power necessary to OPP
crate cars on the entire main sec.
tion of the southern Idaho system.
Railroad men claim that it ia
very probable that definite action
will be taken by the Oregon Short
Line to prepare for the installation
of the necessary apparatus to cleo
trify the system, due to the fact
that great reduction can be made
in the cost of operation. 1t lie also
claimed that the Oregon Short Line
ls now crowded to its capacity to
handle the increasing traffic over its
southern Idaho road, both passen-
ger and freight. It is for the pur.
pose Of assisting in some measure
to relieve this situation that plans
have been made to double track the
system from Montpelier to Hunt
ington.
Wishing to be in line with mod
ern railroad construction and esti'
mating on very conservative
basis that electricity is much cheap
er in the great southern Idaho cleo
trical field than is coal power, thc
Short Line is now said to be taking
the necessary steps to advance along

REVERSED
IN DALRYMPLE CASE

1t is made clear in a decision hand
ed down by the state supreme court
last Thursday that the highest trl-
bunal In the state Is not satisfied
with the manner IN which the pro.
bate court of Bear Lake county and
Judge J. NJ. Stevens of the Fifth Ju-
dicial district handled the case grow
ing out of the distribution of the es-
tate Of Orson Dalrymple. The deei-
sion Of the district court Is reversed
and the case is sent back with In
structions to the district Judge to try
it on the law and the facts.
Orson Dalrymple. according to the
records of the case, died In Bear Lake
county May IA, 1907. He left an es-
tate composed of several pieces Of
realty and much personal property.
H. II Dalrymple and A. b. Dalrym-
pie were made administrators OF the
| estate.
May 81, 1909, the administrators
filed report In the probate court
September 80, 1910, they filed their
final report. The same day the pro-
bate Judge entered an order that
the final report be heard October 12,
1910. 1t was continued until October
10, and on that date continued again
till October "a.
November II, 1910, ADELAIDE Kent
and several other heirs Of Orson Dal.
rymple filed objection and exceptions
to items in the partial and final re-
ports. February q, 1911 additional
exceptions were filed.
May 6, 1911, the probate judge
made a record and ordered that 1t be
entered as of the date of October "a
1910 This order, SAYS the decision
of the supreme court, was made be
cause the probate judge had neglect
ed to make an entry as to what wal
done October "a. 1910, the date fixeC
for the hearing of objections to tn
partial aud final reports.
t In the court order of May 8, 1911
It IL made to appear that all obiec
tions were brushed aside October "a
1910 except as to attorneys fees,
minor matter.
5 1t is further shown in the order o
I May 9, 1911, that the probate judg
held that the objections and excap
tions were not filed in time to com
g ply with the law.
{ Three days later, May o, the pro
e bate judge made and entered th
final report Of the administrators.
From the foregoing record Of th
: probate judge, says Justice StewaE
D in the opinion, ..it will be observe
s that the same was made and entere
!. on the 9th day of May, 1911 and tia
: the probate Judge ordered that tn
D same was to be entered rs of the 27t

This point Of time is considere

: tions and exceptions on the conteI
I. ton that they were not filed With

CRAFTS IN MOVING
PICTURE BUSINESS

There is getting to be CRAFTS in the
moving picture business, as well as
in many ether lines, and those who
are now working the people with the
lone Hundred Years of Mormonism,
have certainly got graft which is
reaping rich returns. These pictures
were shown to packed houses at the
Montpelier Theatre last Saturday
afternoon and evening. The prices
charged were 35 cents for adults and
25 cents for children, while 15 and 10
cents would have been "stiffn prices
to have paid for such pictures. How
ever, Messrs Mcdonald a. Weller Of
the Theatre, are not to blame for the
advanced prices charged, but the
men who are going about the country
! with the films. 1t is true, the pic
lures depicted TO certain extent
the struggles and prosecutions OF the
Mormon people in the early days,
and reflected, as nearly correct 81
possible, the hardships experienced
by the first party which crossed the
plains, though the pictures do mol
cover as many scenes as the adver-
tising matter indicates. 1t is also
true that it cost q considerable sum
to get these pictures up, but thai
does not justify the promoters in
holding up the people to see them
There are thousands of houses show
| ing pictures every night for 10 cents
which cost as much to produce Al
Ibid the lone Hundred Years 0
FMormonism." In fact the Montpel
Ter nicture houses are doing that.
