Range Horse Swindlers.

Reading of the testimony in
the case of the United States VS.
u. S. Livestock Co., now on trial
in the federal court at Omaha,
forcibly impresses one with the
thought that a sucker is born
every minute. The victims of
the sWindlers were not poor ig-
norant foreigners, but bankers,
business men and even preachers,
who thought they saw chance
of getting rich, and were willing
to transfer title to good property
to strangers in return for a bill
of sale for as many horses as
they might ask for that were
supposed to be on the range in
Coconino county. 1t is alleged
by the government that $1,000, :
900 was secured by the swindlers
by the trading Of imaginary
horses. Most of the victims
were from Nebraska. Iowa, Min
nesota, and the two Dakotas,
and all they have to credit
against the loss of their proper
ty is experience; and it is truly
remarkable how such crude
deal could be worked so success
fully.

Measles Closes School.

Mr.. r. G.. Creswell, chairman
of the county board of health,
sent a communication to the school
board Tuesday advising the clos
ing of the schools at once owing
to an epidemic of measles among
the children. 1t is reported
there are now at least fifty cases
in the city, all mild in form, and
to prevent the further spread of
disease it was thought best to
close the school. The regular
Christmas vacation would begin
with the close of this school
week, SO the closing of the school
a few days earlier will not
materially interfere with the
work. School will reopen Jan.
I'd, at which time it is hoped the
epidemic will have run it's course.

Operetta a Success.

The music department Of the
Winslow high school, under the
guidance of Miss Ernestine Con-
ner, is to be congratulated upon
their success in presenting the
operetta "Bulbul" at the Elec-
trio theatre last Friday evening.
1t is no small undertaking to drill
chorus of forty young voices,
inspire them with confidence for
the strong ensembles, and in
struct them with stage action to
have an operetta presented in
perfect harmony and pass along
with out any embarrassing
bitches. Miss Conner has dem
onstrated her ability both as a
musical instructor and chorus
director, and the success of the
Operetta must make her feel
will repaid for her untiring
efforts. A good house greeted
the performers, and well-earned
applause was given the several
solo parts and many of the
choruses. The orchestra under
the direction of Prof. LaBerge
added to the musical program,
and contributed in no small share
in the success of the operetta.

Hunt Contest Dismissed.

The contest instituted by Gov.
Hunt against Mr.. Campbell to
prevent the later from taking his
seat as governor, was thrown
out of court Monday by Judge
Stanford Of Maricopa county, be-
fore whom the suit has been pend
ing. Last Saturday the attor-
neys for Mr.. Campbell argued a
motion to dismiss for the reason
that there was nothing officially
before the court owing to the
refusal of the secretary of state
to issue the certificate of election
on the face of the returns. An
appeal from the decision has been
taken to the supreme court by
Mr.. Hunts attorneys, but this
cannot be heard for at least two
weeks, so there is nothing to pre-
vent Mr.. Campbell taking the
oath of office Jan. 1st.
The opinion of Judge Stanford
is sound in law, and the supreme
court will not reverse the find
ings. The purpose of institut-
ing the contest with so much
haste was with the hope of con-
tinuing Gov. Hunt in office be-
yond his term, and during the
session of the legislature, but
their haste worked their own un-
doing. After Mr.. Campbell re-
ceives his certificate of election,
a new contest can be instituted
by Mr.. Hunt, but it will not pre-
vent the Inauguration of Mr..
Campbell, who will serve as
governor until the final termina-
ton of the contest.

INFANT!LE PARALYSIS.
State Board of Health Says Unsani- %ary Tsnements Are Found Respon- sibIe For Its Spread.

In regard to the 1nfantiIe paralysis situation the August Bulletin of the State Board of Health says;
 Not in recent years has an epidemic Of disease so aroused the people as has the present scourge of tnfantiIe paralysis.
 To the public this disease Is a. new disease and it's attendant paraIyses spell horror almost as great as death Satisfactory treatment IS unknown and the exact mode of transmission of the disease from one child to another has not, as vet. been determined
 In view of these facts no result can be expected other than the feeling of 2reae st anxiety and concern, par tIcul9rly on the part of parents.
 While we deplore the occasion for such state of public mind neverth- less 1t acts as an incentive for the adoption of conservative and efficient health measures
 It is true that in some communities it has melted somewhat hasty and reactiOnary methods of control, but the general effect upon the control of communicable diseases will be good
 People will appreciate more than ever before that diseases of a, Conta- gious character. while they may in wade clean homes and communities, do not originate in such communities.
 The unsanitary tenenaents, dirty streets and alleys. poor and careless garbage disposal, dirty and poorly ventilated theatres and halls. and many other conditions of our present day life, will be found responsible for the spread of these diseases.
 It will not be long before this cpl demic is gone and forgotten an din- fantile paralysis will take its place with other contagious diseases that are now classed as ordinary, and which are given little thought.
 But is it not time for the public to become anxious and concerned over all contagious diseases? Should not the present interest and activity con- tinue until these diseases, which are killing and maining thousands of chil- dren annually. are under reasonable control: The ordinary disease known
