POSSIBILITY OF BLACK
SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC

Warning has been issued by the
state health board that persons take
cognIzance OF the epidemic of black
smallpox reported to have broken
out In Denver and become vaccinated
to prevent any serious outbreak In
this state.
Health authorities Of Colorado in
formed DR.. T. b. Beatty, state health
commissioner that 2G7 cases OF
smallpox have occurred since late in
September and that "A have been
fatal. Thirty-two cases we're re-
ported in September Of which seven
were fatal. In October there we're
100 cases and AZ deaths and in the
first week in November rs cases
were reported with rs deaths.
The epidemic is believed to be a
return Of the outbreak occurring there
last year which resulted in the
wholesale vaccination Of the Denver
citizens. The health authorities are
said to have reported to DR.. Beatty
that not single person afflicted
with the pox this year has been re-
Gently vaccinated, In the opinion Of
the Utah authorities there IL q large
percentage of the residents OF Utah
who have not been vaccinated lately
and should take steps to prevent Tia
outbreak of pox plague In this
state.
The health board urges that public
health officials in each community
provide facilities for free vaccination
to all applying and urge the people
to take this means Of lessening the
danger from the disease. Should
the disease once gain = foothold In
Utah there 10 every reason to believe
Il will spread like wildfire, DR.. Beat
ty said.
The local health board here also
urges the people to be vacciuated,
and to Immediately report 10 the
board any symptoms Of smallpox. II
such should appear. Denver IL but
a days ride from here and any time
someone from there may visit our
city. and bring the disease here. We
should take all precautions possible.

SUIT MAY CLOSE
PRIVATE FERRY
AT WHEATLAND

Operation Of the Wheatland
ferry may possibly be suspended
unless satisfactory arrangements
can be made between Clyde La
Toilette who has been operating
the ferry, and T. B. Jones, who
claims to be owner of the east
bank of the river at the point
where the ferry lands. Suit has
been filed in the Marion county
circuit court to determine wheth
er or not La Toilette has a right
to land his ferry on the east bank
Of the river.
In the suit, in which an amend
ed complaint was filed today, Mr..
Jones alleges that Mr.. LaFollette
has appropriated river bank lots
belonging to Jones for the pur-
pose Of operating a ferry across
the Willamette river.
Mr.. Jones alleges that La Fol-
lette has placed anchor poles, bell
poles, wires and cables on his
land, and Furthermore, that La
Toilette is really operating a fer
ry and landing freight on river
bank land that he has been in
possession Of for the past 32 years
Mr. Jones alleges that he not
only owns the land above the
high water line where Mr.. La
Toilette is now operating a fer
ry. but also owns the land along
the river bank between high wa
ter and the low water line Of the
river.
Hence he asks the court that
Mr.. LaFollette be restrained from
placing wires and cables on and
over his land and from operat-
Ing a ferry. landing freight and
on his river bank land.

Shall Kids Have Milk?
Dairymen Not Averse;
Move Finds Opponents

In order to rescue a dozen-odd
children, said to be under-nour-
shed, shall a milk-drinking move,
reported to have received the en-
thusiastic support of local dairy
Interests, be launched in Salem?
Last night a number of mem
bers of the Lincoln Parent Teach
er's association, gathered at the
Lincoln school building expect
Ing to hear something definite on
the proposal to distribute mix
among boys and girls of the Lin
coin first and second grades. Fur
ther time in which to consider the
problem was asked, however, by
Mrs. John HARRISON, chairman of
the committee in charge of an in
vestigation.
In the minds of many parents
there appears to be some doubt as
to the advisability of the move.
One man, who attended last
nights meeting, pointed out today
that, in his opinion, the problem
OF under nourished students
might be handled directly in a
more satisfactory manner.
II have little girl" he said.
When she wishes bottle of milk,
she may take it to school with her.
Don't misunderstood me. If there
are families in our neighborhood
who can't afford to buy the milk
for their children, / am willing to
help. But believe that it would
besfar better to take the milk di-
rectly to the homes Of these peo-
ple."
This, in the opinion of one who
fayors the daily milk drinking
would not do.
I'VE don't wish these people to
feel they are the objects of char
ity," she said. by distributing ii
to everybody and by paying for
the milk through subscriptions,
that phase would be eliminated. Z"
at is an open secret that certain
of the teachers do not favor the
move. 1t is known that the milk
drinking recess would take up a
certain amount of time.

MAN SUICIDES
AT MILL CITY

Mill City, Or, Nov. 22.-Spe-
clay )-The man who this after
noon took his own life by jumping
off the Southern Pacific bridge
into the Santiam, near here, is be-
lieved to be John Wanack, who
had been employed at Camp IT,
OF the Hammond Lumber COM
pany. After he had hit the water
the man made an effort to swim
ashore. but failed, witnesses to
the tragedy said.
An unidentified man leaped
from the railroad bridge of@the
Albany, Corvallis & Eastern Rail
way company bridge at Mill City
shortly after 1 O'Clock this after
noon, according to word received
by telephone by Sheriff Oscar
Bower.
The mans body quickly sank
In the swift waters of the Santiam
Doubt as to whether the body
Will be recovered soon was ex-
pressed by officials. In the past,
they said, there have been other
suicides from the same bridge and
efforts to find the victims were
unavailing for many weeks.
There was no information
available as to the man Is identity.
