regulations will result in the control
of diphtheria in this state.

during any year for which reports
have been made to the State Board
of Health. Diphtheria is disease
which, as a general thing, does not
make its appearance until the fall
and winter and the high incidence
of the disease in the state during the
late summer months has been a
source of great concern to health Of
ficials because of the fact that the
schools of the state are ready to open.
It is feared that unless extreme pre-
cautions are taken to prevent the
dissemination of diphtheria through
out the schools that the ensuing fall
and winter months will show very
pronounced prevalence of diphther-
la. The State Board of Health is,
therefore. urging upon school ofici-
ais and health officers, as we'll as
upon the parents of children in the
state, that all possible care be taken
to discover the occurrence of throat
troubles in childred at the earliest
possible moment and to prevent the
attendance of any child who pre-
sents any evidence of throat envolve
ment in school until it has been de-
termined by competent physician
that the condition is not contagious. .
Reports for August, which have so
far been received by the State
Board of Health, show that dipther,
ia is present in every county in the
state from which a report has been
received.
1t is unfortunately true that too
title attention has been paid to the
necessity for isolating children who
lave had diphtheria. An investiga-
ion of several outbreaks Of this dis
'ase by the State Board of Health

esigned to prevent the spread of
communicable diseases was, of

Wrecked.

English humanitarians are deplor-
ing the downfall of their hopes OF
seeing the bill to prohibit the training
of performing animals for the purpose
of public entertainment become law,
this session. In the House OF Com
mons, on June 4, it was lost, at the
third reading, by SO votes against 6O,
and Commander Kenworthy, r. N. NJ.
F., decided to withdraw, rather than
to amend it, at least for the time be-
ing. The cause of performing AMI
mails has evoked widespread sympathy
among all classes, and the press has
been recalling the fact that IN July,
next year, it will be one hundred
years ago when, at time that ali
cruelty to animals was permissible
Richard Martin succeeded IN passing
the first Act to prevent the cruel and
improper treatment Of cattle. mat
was in July, 1922, and between that
year and this lie wonderful years OF
progress in civilization, but the re-
lection of the performing animals Dill
looks as if we had not made an end
of Dick Martins unfinished job.
Some change has been, and the ap-
petite for certain since they were Tor
hidden by succeeding Acts of Parlia-
ment to protect animals. We are
ashamed now, as a nation, when we
think of ancient barbarians at the
time when, in the reign of Henry VII,
a mare was torn to pieces at WIND
sor Castle by famished dogs Tor
amusement of royal guests. When
Nicholas of Russia visited England
in the nineteenth century, he was tax
en- to see dogs worry a bull, but 1t
is not to be imagined that we could
have carried the japanese Crown
Prince to any such spectacle OF tor
ment and blood.
We have made laws that deny this
pleasure to the man who loved to see
the bull baited, and to watch worrying
of the blinded bear, but we have still
to make laws that shall deal with the
fool whose poor wits are amused by
the performing dog, and the trained
elephant. You may not reason with

LUCKY WASHINGTON!

that it is not a case Of luck
but of hard and persistent
work on the part of the
various civic organizations
of the capital, backed by the
citizens. In any event, Wash
ington has just effected a
saving of nearly two mil
hons of dollars annually by
the reduction of it's street
car fares, and it's gas and
electric power rates. 1t will
have, beginning September
1st, 7 cent carfare, $1.10 gas,
and Scent electric power.
These reductions were
fought by all the public utll-
ity Companies with bitter
determination. But the peo-
pie we're mightier and pre-
vailed. Whereas Alexandria
is paying nearly forty per
cent. higher carfare; recent
ly granted, through its city
council, an extension of its
wartime electric rates for
another fat and unctuous
year; and still pays $3.50 for
it's gas-the poor mans
coal.
Can it be that the civic
organizations Of Washing
ton are more alert or more
assiduous in looking after
the interests of its citizens?
Or is it attributable to the
activities of an aroused peo-
pie themselves? We have
no answer to these riddles
at present. But we do know
that our citizens are being
milked plenarily to the
taste of the queen in the
legend.
AS to the higher fares on
the electric line, the Wash
ington Virginia Railway
Company admit, so we are
informed, that their de-
crease in passenger traffic
is enormous since the higher
rates went into effect. We
understand that the new
rates do not begin to COM
pensate the Company for its
decline in revenue. This
being true, the Gazette's pre-
diction of a few weeks ago
will be verified: that the
Company would not be the
gamer, and the people
mulcted out of thousands OF
dollars to no practical on
beneficial purpose.
The electric rates are fix
ed for another year-so we
may pass them over, as the
lawyers say, as res adJudl-
cata. g.. -assa y
AS to the gas question, we
will reserve that for future
comment. We have made
some inquiry among the con-
sulners of the city, and find
them reasonably satisfied as
to the quality. We wish to
be fair to the gas manage
nlent, and gladly make the
statement that from our in
formation the gas seems to
be better than for some
years past.
But the price of the gas,
however, will bear investi-
cation in behalf of the citi-
