" JOURNAL -?tVi. 7 (THE BOARD OF HEALTH DODGES Refuses to Show any Analysis of Salem Water Is Unable to Show any Con nection Between City's Water Supply and any Typhoid Case (Portland Oregonlnn, Oct 5.) Thus Mr. Albert, tho Salem banker, again challenges tho state board of health. Last week Mr. Albert offered to pay ?500 to tho Salem Hospital "If Salem's water supply bo found to con- ftaln typhoid germs.' Now Mr. Albert i has staked $1000 on tho purity of the "Beautiful Willamette." Tho board responded to the first i challenge by saying that tho tost pro posed by Mr, Albort was unfair, slnco It would bo extremely difficult to find typhoid bacilli in tho water with tho microscope. In roply to tho second "doll," Dr. Andrew C. Smith, presldont of tho state board of health, said last night: Wo Bhall mako our Investigations In our own way, and at our own time. We havo considered It our duty to In vestigate the sanitary conditions of all towns In the state. In this work we feel no grudges, no spite and no Ill- will toward nny town whatever. "Tho many cases of typhoid at Sa lem havo convinced us, as they will convlnco overy unbiased man, that the water supply of that city contains tho germs of typhoid disease. Tho un it wholcBomeness of that water Is known ito physicians throughout tho state. It was known to us individually and col lectlvcly before wo began our invest! gatoins. Will Not Be Bulldozed. "I wish to say to the people of Sn- Elcm that their city Is not tho only rone that Is under Inspection, and they iavo no reason to bo aggravated on iiaif aianiitEiogiamMqanMtHMMtt'M , , X lBel....J.m.a Ukki.

Wo havo proved that dry goods can bo sold on as close a margin of profit ns other lines of merchandise. If Its managed right. Tho ladles of Salem aro pleased to find really high-class novelties In dress goods at prices much lower than "rogular stores" ask for the samo quality.

Barnes, Prop, ' i HMtt38atMflati8ttaeitr the supposition that they have, been singled out for attack. "Let mo say again that wo Bhall make our examinations In our own way, and at our own time. We shall not suffer anybody to bulldozq us." "Will you allow the word 'bulldoze' to bo printed' was asked? "Yes, sir; I meant just that word. "My only rogrot." went on Dr. Smith, "Ib that we gave tho mattor premature publicity. My idea was thnt wo should complete our evidence boforo giving It publicity. "At tills time, after tho heavy rains, tho manifestations of typhoid nro not so plain as they havo been. The pol luted areas have been washed off, and the difficulty of bacteriological exam lnations is thereby Increased. I cua poet that tho water company at Salem haa Improved Its pipo lino under tho slough, so as to prevent tho admit tance of typhoid germs from that pol luted water. If tho reform has been made wo shall bo glad to know it, and if we find no further traces of disease breeding germs we shall be pleased again. HlQh Percentage of Typhoid. Salem physicians reported 108 cases of typhoid fovor In tho tnrco moumB prccodlng tho middle of Soptombur. If tho same ratio of patients had pre vailed at Portland this city would havo had moro than 1200 cacos of tho dls. onso Jn that porlod. But tho actual numbor vns only C8, as follews: July n August & Uoptombor 39 Total cs In 1902 tho numbor was: July v 3 August c Soptcmbor Total 23 No Typhoid In Bull Run. The disease In this city comes most ly from drinking Willamette river water. Scow dwellers and rl,ver fiont rosldonta Who uso water from tho riv er, tho most frequent victims. A good mnay cases of typhoid aro brought to Portland for treatment, owing to the superior hospital facilities here. "Never," said Dr. Woods Hutchin son, secretary of tho Btate board of health, yesterday, "has there been a well authenticated caBO of typhoid from tho uso of Bull Run water.

Salem's cheapest R ADMITS THERE ARE NO GERMS But the Oregonian Ar gues They Might Be Found Its Statements Sound Like the Wonderfully Erudite Criticisims of the Great Fadladeen The Portland paper admits, by Im plication, that tho state board of health found no germs in tho analysis if water taken from tho Salem supply, but argues editorially that they may still exist, and thus justifies tho das tardly attack on tho sanltnry condt' tlnos of this city. Read its article, as follows on October Cth: "The failure to find germs of disease In water Is no proof that such germs are not present Millions of gallons of wator flow dally paBt a glvon point. If tho gorms of disease woro so numer ous that they could bo found In every sample of water put under a mlcrc scopo, tho whole population drinking tho wntor would bo exterminated. There may ba disease germs In the water of a river, and yet hundreds of samples taken may not contain them. Tho lone fisherman hesitates not to quaff tho refreshing liquid of tho stream, notwithstanding tho fact that it contains tho sewcrago of a city a mllo or two above. An analysis of the water at that placo might fall to show impurities, but who will Bay they are not theroT The real problem Is to keep Impurities out of the river or get a water supply from a stream in to which no Impurities are deposited." Storm on the Baltic Borlln, Oct. C. A terrific storm pre vailed over tho Baltic and North ccaa today, and a numbor of maritime cos-. ualtlos aro reported. Tho steamer Flnsburg foundered and 13 woro drowned, and njso tho bark Clara, off the coast of Schloawlg, and 12 woro drowned. Extra Guard for President. Washington, Oct. C Arangemonts have beeh made for an extra guard for Roosevolt at the memorial services in honor of Herbert, at St. John's church today. Theso precautions aro tho re sult of the attempt of tho crank, Kill- ott, to entor the White Houso Yob tor day. Tho secret sorvlco men say It It almost Invariably tho rule that tho publication of an attempt to reach tho Presldont is followed by tho appear ance of other invited guosts. Officer Clsolo 1b moro sorlouBly in jured than at first reported. A plcco of glass two Inches long by half nn Inch wide was taken from his arm, whore It had .severed an artory.

Three moro. in addition to Elliott, wore arrostod by the secret sorvlco men, wboso policy it Is to suppress all such affairs. Yes. terday'a attack was too violent to es capo notice.
