FLU" SITUATION IN

Dr. ). 5. Lee of Carson. secretary
OF the state board OF health. states
that the influenza situation through
out the state is rapidly clearing. Re
ports from the various county health
boards all indicate that while the cpl
ddnic has been noted in practically
every county, that it is of miIde.
form and that the attending pneumonia
such as prevailed last year. has moi
mas not had any considerable run.
Or. Lee has received word from
Federal Director Blue to the effect
that both east and west the situation
was most encouraging, with every in

its course. DR.. Lee is OF the opinion
that while cases will continue to be
reported, it will not assume the seri-
Gus proportions of the last.

TIE fundamental fsilacy Of the
reasoning Of Samuel Gompers lies In
the assuna ption that the population Of
the country can be divided into the
friends and the enesnies OF labor.
The test appears to be that those who
agree with Mr.. Gorpers are the
friends of labor and those who dis
Axree with him are It's enemies.

STATE PRESS COMMENT.
BACK TO THE CONSTITUTION.
Hanover Herald Progress.

THdnUvET Observation-Disclosures
At last, there is some sen1blaaee Of
obedience to the constitution at the
hands of the general assembly. A
commission to re-district the state has
been appointed and has already or
ganized for work. The plain mandate
OF the constitution, was to re-district
the state in 1912. Each legislature
from that date on has side stepped
the issue and the result Is gross in
equality in representation from the
several counties and cities. Some
counties having population of 5000
have representative, while others
with $4,000 are tied on to another
county. Some cities have doubled
their population. but their representa-
ton remains the same. Then there is
some gerry-mandering that should be
wiped out No need OF that nova
