Smallpox ard Vaccination.


Vermont has been free from ravages OF
smallpox so long that the great mass OF
our people have come to discuss the prob
lens of that disease and to consider the
need of vaccination largely as an abstract
theory and not a condition here and now
We reprinted few days ago am afIcle
from the Orleans County Monitor calling
in question the merits OF vaccination as
means of stopping the raVages OF small
p0N.
Instead of relying wholly upon theory in
the absence of realistic experience IT may
be well for our. people to consider what IS
actually poing on now IN Canada. The
Montreal Herald states the situation exist
ipa al this time IN the Canadian capital
and the province of Quebec as follows:
The quarantining of Ottawa on ac--
count of smallpox by the province oil
Quebec may be eXDedient but 1t Will prove
awkward especially on the eve OF the
meeting Of parliament. An execution IS
made Of Hull, although that city Is really
art of Greater Ottawa. and has always
0een included in any scheme for the ere
alton of federal district.
There is a sharp controversy IN - emc

vaccination, the forces opposed to IL oe

"Fiftn Monarchy Men,"

The Fifth Monarchy Men" were
an extreme sect in England of the
period of the Puritan revolution,
largely found In the army which sup
ported Cromwell, in the belief that his
government was the beginning OF the
Fifth Monarchy" during which the
milennIaI reign of Christ on earth
would take place. The previous four
monarchies were the Assyrian, Ter
sian, Grecian and Roman. But ss'ch
fanatics could not but be in opposi-
ton to any established government
and Cromwell had some difficulties
with them. In 1861 the revolt of Ven
DER was largely supported by this sect
