On Saturday. January, 12. 1937. there
appeared in the La Grande Evening
Observer, an article under the baad lines
'The Mayor on the War Path." Thie
article is a great injustice to ame parties
mentioned therein. So 'great that the
undersigned desire to ente' hir earnett
protest against the misuse of fact and
erroneous statement that are given to
the public in the above mention rti.
cle. .
Knowing that the subject of quaran
tine is of public interest, and Instituted
for the public welfare, he desires to en
lighten the reader cf this paper as to the
cause of the Mayor' residence beinir un
der quarantine, etc.
All the people of i ur city, know that
their Mayor has been ill and hit misfor
tune the cause of some alarm to' our citi
zen. "A Bright Light Shineth on High
Altar." December 25. 1906, Mr. Stod
dard first consulted m regarding his
recent illness and with his permision, 1
am privileged to give you brief history
of his case as given to me by him.
On November 27, 19C6, Mr. Stoddard
went to Hot Lake, Oregon, for treatment,
remaining thereabout three week. About
December 1 7, he returned to La Grande.
December 18 and 19, able to attend the

large "blotches." the size of the end of
hi finger, on his face. December -21,
returned to Hot Lake. December 22,
was examinid by Dr. Phy at Hot Lake,
the first time a physician was consulted
in regard to this eruption as it had given
nim no anneyance up to this time. Dr.
Phy told him the eruption looked suspici
ous to him and isolated hitn n his room
for the diy, and adviied him to ruturn to
La Grande.
December 23, he returned ' to La
Grande. 1 was cilled to attend him.
Upon carefuil examination I also inform
ed him that the eruption looked very sus
picious and that we would keep him un
der observation for 24 hours to determ
ine the true nature of his illness, as it was
imposs.blo to make a positive diagnosis at
tint time, advised him and his family tn
re.mm rtt home until I should see turn the
f Vi.'inrj day. which they did.
December 24, ! 006. I called and found
h:s body covered with a typijal eruption
of urticaria, told him w:Mt it was. and
that i ciuld not quarantine him for t!t
outlined his treatment, etc.
On De;. 26ih tha d'ag.iosis was con
mmei by the City Health O.ficer.
D :c. L'3, all the eruption of urticaria '
had disappeared, and the small popuies
oi varioloid began to appear. I reported
t-i case promptly, end the Mayor's rtsi
d :ii; was placed undor quarantine.
Mr Stoduard hid a ver mild attack of
v.uio:oid i.v,i iniHu a rap'd recovery.
The di .ease aborting in the vesicular
st-iga wi:h only the formation of one or
to pusties.
T:ie iry interesting. part of his illness
to h;a attending and consulting physicians
was the fact of his having two diseases
practically at the same time. The var
ioloid be ng held in check until after the
othrr disease had abated.
Mr Stoddard was disinfected, his resi
dence fumigated and the quarantine was
discontinued. On Jan 7th 1907, his
daughter was taken ill. Jan 8th 1 diag
nosed the disease as var
ioloid and the residence was again quar
antined. Three more of his children are
at present affected with the disease. All
very mild cases of varioloid or modified
small pox.
Jan 1 1th the Mayor desired an Official
investigation by the City Health Officers.
The diagnosii ofjthe undersigned was con
firmed and the quarantine continued.
These are all the facts connected with
the illness in the Mayor's family, and at
nq time has any of bis children attended
school while his residence was under
quarantine, nor would he allow them to
do so during the time that his own case
was developing.
The question naturally arises: What
shall be done to prevent the spread of

and the necessity for quarantine, etc., at
tne time of the establishment of the quar
antine. Injustice to myself and friends, I desire
to state that I have not reversed my posi

defend those same principles for which I

Note: The article which appeared in
Saturday's Observer, and referred to
above, was based upon a statement made
by Mayor Sloddard to the Editor of the
Observer over the telephone. After
calling up the Mayor this morning and
asking the Mayor if he had been mis
quoted, he replied that he had not, except
that we had used the word smallpox in
reporting the finding of the commission
when we should have used the word
"Varioloid". Wiih this exception the ar
ticle was correet, as based upon the
Mat or's statement. Editor
