used, large screens or temporary par
titions should be placed between beds.
This is because the other germs, as
ISOLATED with the Pfeiffer bacillus,
vary in different cases. The patients
all have, influenza, but some have
other things, too, and, therefore, one
influenza patient may infect another
influenza patient with his complied
tions and so make the attack worse
than it need have been.
(b) Distinction: during the attack
all discharges, especially of nose and
mouth, all infected towels, handker-
chiefs, bed clothes, eating utensils, etc
should be boiled or dipped in 2 pei
cent carbolic acid, or 2 per cent lysol
in water. There should be single at
tendant, who should wear respirato1
Tor mask, spectacles (plain glass will
dol and wash hands always after
touching patient; or dip hands Tin
stead of washing) in bichloride solu-
ton Il in 20OO.) Fumigatlon after
attack is unnecessary.
Communities: Should organize I'M

strike, its agitation and the riots, the
Governor said:
"Riots followed and threats were
made that all the union people Of the
Twin Cities were going out on a
strike. The position that your Gov
ernor took under such conditions was
identical, in principle, with the posi-
ton taken by President Wilson on
September 18th of this year, when he
wrote to the Bridgeport lodge of the
International Association of Machin-
lists as follows:
But whatever the merits of the
issue, it is closed by the award; your
strike against II is a breach of faith
calculated to reflect on the sincerity
os rational organized labor in pro-
claiming it's acceptance of the prin-
cipes and machinery of the National
War Labor Board. If such disregard
of the solemn adjudication Of tri-
bunal to which both parties submit
ted their claims be temporized with,
agreements become scraps of paper.
If error creeps into awards, the prop
er remedy is submission to the award
with the application for re-hearing
to the tribunal, but to strike against
the award is disloyalty and dihhonor.'
"That is the stand I took last win
ter, and, upon the same showing Of
facts, will take again."

selves, the state administration has
been actively engaged in assisting the
farmers and laborers in ways I shall
hereinafter further describe"
For The Farmers.
Governor Burnquist referred direct
" to what has been accomplished for
the farmer, not what has been prom
ised. In doing this he voiced his ap-
prevail of any farmer Or labor organi-
zation that accomplished good for it's
members.
He said: Because of what the
present administration has done for
the farmer in the past, it believes it
has in this campaign the advantage
over the leading pretenders of some
of those organizations, whose theo-
ries, if put into practice, will mean
ultimate ruin. A few instances of
our activities on behalf Of the farm
er can here be cited. We have estab-
lished for them labor bureau, which
has supplied many thousands of men.
We have sent numerous delegations
to Washington to strive for the high
est price possible for his products
and have been active in proc1r
from him changes in the Federal
grades of grain, netting the pro-
ducers Of this state and the north
west many millions Of dollars.
The Governor mentioned he had
been criticized for his action in the
street car strike and riots in the
Twin Cities. He declared that his po-
sition was identical with that of Pres
ident Wilson, who was forced to use q
firm hand to keep war industries at
work at Bridgeport in recent weeks

Report OF junior hcu SIOss.
The Sank Centre School Junior
Red Cross Auxiliary was organized

ecutive committee elected: Supt. M.

of being at liberty and permitted to
live off of the farmers Of Minnesota"
The Liquor Order.
Taking up the orders of the Public
Safety Commission, the Governor
asked all citizens to compare the few
drastic acts of the commission with
Federal action.
He said: "Ths action taken, COM
pared with that of the Federal gov
eminent in stopping the manufacture
of all liquor during the period of
the war, has been very conservative"
Discussing the liquor question fur
Their, the Governor showed how cir
cumstances have removed it entirely
as gubernatorial issue in this cam
paign.
He said: "The Federal Government
has practically settled this matter for
the next two years and the submits
sion of the proposed prohibition
amendment to the people of the state
at the next election has eliminated
this question as gubernatorial issue
for this year. Personally, I have ia
vored temperance legislation in the
past and will continue to do so, but I
am not in sympathy with the manner
in which some parties and candidates
are attempting to play politics with
such a matter at this time. One par
ty has gone so far as to raise a bogus
question upon a situation that in all
probability will never arise and then
intends to have dry candidates wet
answer to that question as an at
traction to wet voters"
Real Aid To Farmers.
Governor Burnquist pointed out that
legislation of real aid to the farmer
has been, is now and will be favored
but that it cannot include co-opera-
ton with "noisy performers who
claim to be friends of the farmers
and laborers, but who have plainly
shown their insincerity by failing to
cooperate with those who have been
sincerely endeavoring to serve both
of these classes"
And, said the Governor, "while the
head of the Nonpartisan league and
his revenue collectors have been run
ming about the state and doing moth
ing for the actual tillers of the soil,
and while his fifty thousand dollar
attorney and other agitating employ
es have been haranguing the labor
ing men in the cities to the irrepar-
able injury of the laboring men them

SPANISH INFLUENZA

1T IS RECURRENCE OF MALADY

COMMUNITIES SHOULD ORGAN
IZE TO PREVENT SPREAD

Owing to the prevalence of the
Spanish Influenza in America in
alarming and increasing cases the
Minnesota Public Health Association,
at the request of the Northern Divis-

above will be of material benefit in
conserving the health of the public,
the Herald publishes the same here
with, as follows:
1. Spanish Influenza is the iniuen-
"a of 1892; it is due to Pfeiffer's
bacillus; it is not the same as what

ness, weakness, pains in various parts
of body; temperature rises suddenly
