Town School Committee Adopts Budset-$10s, 67Os2 TO
be Raised by Tax-Wi be ga Mills Same Last
YearMedcal Inspection Is Provided for az Law Calls
for It.

A school budget for 1e15-1s16 Of
$123,7o2 in estimated expenses, of
which $1oS,67O.s2 Is to be raised by a
tax of Ia mills, the same tax as
last year, was voted upon and ap-
proved by the town school COMMITTEES
at meeting held Thursday morning
at $50 o'clock after adjourning a
meeting that had been held the preYi-
Gus evening in the Office of Supt. Z. ].
Graham.
Action on the school budget will be
taken at the regular annual town meet
ing in October.
In the budget for next year there is
one new item over q year ago. which
is $1,000 for medical inspection, which
the committee has found a requirement
by law this year. Yet this additional
sum on the expense side will make no
addition in the tax rate, Chairman
Charles o. Murphy says, because the
money that was raised last year by the
tax was about 1882 more than was
required. This amounts to about one
eighth of mill, and this balance was
turned back into the town fund.
The following is the budget adopted
by the committee:

snport in Throes Of Smallpox Epi-
demie For Many Msnths, Due to
Ignoring Of ouarartinss.

Davenport, Dec. io.--Gavenport has
been for months battling with a small
pox epidemic. That the state board of
health may act upon the suggestion Of
Dr.. George NJ. Middleton. city physi-
clan of Davenport, and abolish the
quarantine in smallpox cases is
thought likely by the tone Of a letter
which DR.. Middleton received from the
secretary Of the state board. The rea-
son for the abolition of the present
preventative measure Is said to be~be-
cause of its ineffectiveness and the
lack of corporation among the pa
tents and their families.
DR.. Middleton wrote the state board
of health some time ago and outlined
conditions in Davenport and suggest
ed that inasmuch as there was q great
deal of feeling against quarantine and
that the patients and their families
evaded the quarantine in majority
of the cases, he thought it would be a
good plan merely to placard the houses
where the disease Is reported, and al
low the occupants to. come and go as
they please.
In the reply to the letter, the sesre-
tary states that he is thoroughly in
sympathy with the suggestions of the
Davenport physician and will bring the
matter to the attention of the board at
next meeting. ut may mean that Dav-
export citizens may be compelled to
watch closely ON the streets OF the
city If they wish to avoid contagton.
It Is said that a vast majority OF
uuarantined families make efforts to
evade the law and in many cases are
protected by their neighbors. In this
way the authorities are unable to en-
force the quarantine and secure guards
to see that the law is upheld. s-
