Opposed to Vaccination.

n discussion in the Reichstag hai
just shown that there is widespread,
| opposition in Germany To COMPULSORY
vaccination. ON a motion To appoint
Il commission composed equally OF
friends and opponents of vaccination
for the purpose of studying the whole
question, party lines were completely
obliteratcd, and the motion failed only
by tie vote. 1t was brought forward
In answer to numerous petitions for a
change i'm the present law, which has
been i'm force for forty years.
The Observation-Disclosures claimed that
hundreds of cases occur where health
is injured by the practice. and it was
pointed out that the official statistics
show that thirty-two deaths were thus
caused in Prussia i'm 1872 They further
asserted that managers of stations for
obtaining lymph from calves have
themselves admitted the impossibility
OF getting a pure lymph in all cases.
The German law does not provide for
compulsory vaccination but the po-
lice authorities have everywhere con-
strued ii as giving them the right to
require vaccination, and when II be-
comes necessary they use compulsion.
The representative of the Imperial
Health office, however said that there
were only eight or nine cases yearly
where compulsion was necessary.
Parents are imprisoned.
\ Socialist speaker claimed that
some parents have been punished five
or six times for refusing to have their
children vaccinated, and some of them
were sent to prison Hundreds of
thousands of people i'm Germany. he
added, have to act contrary to their

What Not To Print

Editing a paper in some respects is
like preaching. The gospel truth must
be presented in the form of generalities
or some fellow will get hit and howl.
says a recent writer. Few persons like
the truth, even in homeopathic doses,
IT it hits them. But while preachers
and editors are criticized for what they
do say, no II thinks of giving them
credit for what they do say. Yet
what they keep to themselves consti.
tutes the majcr portion of what they
know about people. Very many per.
sons harbor the belief that newspaper
are eager to publish derogatory things.
There is not a newspaper that does
moi keep under the lock of secrecy
scores OF derogatory things which never
meet the public eye or reach the public
a + Deciding what not to print is the
most troublesome part of newspaper
work. OF how many good stories are
suppressed for the public good nobody
outside a newspaper office has any idea.
In some instances he who flies into a
passion because a newspaper prints
something about him which he consid-
ers uucomp imentaly has every reason
TO feel profoundly grateful to the news
papers for publishing SO little of what
it knows of him.
Probably in 10 line of work is dis
erection a greater asset than in journal
ism. Newspapers are printed for the
public good, u should be, and the
light of publicity is a purifier of public
morals just like the light of day let
into the damp, foul smelling places IN
the material world. But it is the wise
discretion as to how much light to let
i'll. and the how, and when and the
Where, that makes for the success of
the profession in it's aim to be a med
jun fol public good. -Plainfield Press.
