State Officer Lets Willctt
Remain in Quarantine
at Home.
WIFE WILL REMAIN
WITH STRICKEN MAN
Woman Elects to Stay With
Senator Despite His
Harsh Fate.

Senator q. q. Willett of Alberton is
a hopeless lcper, but his ncishbors and
others who have come into contact
catching the disease.
Such was the report brought from
Alberton yesterday by DR.. w. r. Cogs-
well of Helena. secretary of the state
board of health. Dr. Cogswel went
to the Mineral county town in answer
to instructions from Governor s. V.
Stewart. to whom Theodore Martin, an
Alberton merchant. communicated the
first news of Willett's condition.
Will Remain in Home.
For the present senator Willett will
remain in quarantine in his home at
Alberton. Neither state nor county
authorities have yet decided what fl
nally to do in the case. Mrs. Wilett
has said that She viii remain with her
husband to the end whatever may be
done to him.
People Not in Danger.
In Albcrton Senator WiIlett will not
be q menace to his neighbOrs. says DR.
Cogswcll. "Leprosy is not such O
contagious disease as is popu'arly
supposed he said last night. 1T is.
in fact no more contagious than tu-
bcrculosis. As the disease is only
contracted by the most direct and close
contact. it is not anticipated that II
will be spread"
This opinion is indorsed by DR.. Mil
xhr, i, ~,4
preventive medicine and hygiene al
Harvard university. DR.. Rosenau
writes as follows:
Evidently close. prolonged and inti
mate contact is ordinarily necessary
to contrac: the infection. For manA
years a case of leprosy was cared 70,
as a patient in a hospital with which
was associated. He had his owr
dishes. towels. soap. etc. otherwise ht
mingled freely with the patients ant
others, without spreading the disease
Not First Case in State.
DIR. cogswe1l says that Senator Wi.
let's is not the first case in Montana
\ case was discovered last summer IL
northern Montana in Japanese col.
red tape the leper was sent back t.
japan.
As Mr.. Willett was soldier at thu
time of infection. the matter of a pen.
sion from the government will be taker
up with the federal authorities.
"The people of Alberton." says DR.
CogsweIl. 'are taking a very sane view
of the situation. There is no panick,
feeling and no one is scared. On tn,
other hand. the deepest and sincerest
sympathy exists there for the afflicted
family
Mrs. WiIett is firm in her intentio,
to remain with her afflicted husband
and care for him to the end. Wher.
ever Mr. Willett is taken Mrs Willet
will go and remain at his side.
County Health Officer DR. Elmer
Fessler of Superior. will have super.
vision of the case while Mr.. Willett re-
mains in .Alberton.
