WILLIAM C. MAXEY DISCUSSES IT The Tick Theory Does Not Hold; Nor Does the Contention that Snow Melting In Contact With NMlneral stand. Dr. William C. Maxey, of Caldwell, Idaho, discusses tho disease called spotted fever, which has been nro- vaient in parts of the country, In an article addressed to the Boise States man, follows: "I saw tho article in tho States man from Dr. Chowlng, of Montana, in regard to the cause and patholo gy of spotted fever in the inier-moun tain country of the Pacific states. "I wish to inform Dr. Chowlng that spotted fovcr is not confined to the Bitter Root range of mountains. It exists In tho spring months in eastern Oregon, northern Utah and western Montana. I have observed the disease in Idaho for tho past 14 years and frankly acknowledge it a puzzle to the medical profession. "Our text books are silent on the pathology, causeology and treatment of the so-collod spotted fever of the sagebrush country. "The tick theory will not hold here; neither will the snow melting In contact with metal hold. Cald well, Payette, Nampa ad Mountain appear especially adapted to the propagation and development vof spotted fever in this state. When it develops at Boise it is more ma ligant and more fatal owing to the humidity of the atmosphere. "In 15 years of practice here I believe I am safe in saying that I have treated 50 cases of spotted fe ver and have lost but one case, which was a sheepherder found in a haymow in Caldwell, and by lantern light we visited him, in company with Judge Little, and sent him to the county hospital. He died in three days with a pneumonic metastasis. "Spotted fever is peculiar to a sage brush country. I do not re- m-mber of having treated but- orio female in all my service and that was a girl of 12 years of age on Squaw butte, where she lay desper ately sick with the disease, while her father lay in the same room with tho same disease. They both got well. With aged people it is a serious dis ease. At high altitudes as high as sagebrush grows it is a , serious ail ment. In Boise valley, Payette val ley and Snake river valley the dl ease runs milder unless pneumonia complicates it. The great majority, in fact, all hi this locality that have had the disease are persons exposed to the early bloom of the sagebrush cowboys, sheepherders and ranch ers. Very few in town get the dis ease, hardly any. No ticks cause it. The melting snow in spring does not cause it. The patients that have spotted fever are those who mingle, handle and work with sagebniBh. "The propagation of the disease comes In the spring months, April, May and June. We find no spotted fever after June 30. "I believe the disease due to tho flower anji annual reproductive ef forts of the shrub, because the so- called spotted fever appears at the time the sage is in bloom and rising to reproduction. The shrub varies many weeks in blooming and send ing out its poisonous polon. Analogy Disease always appears in spring time; disease confined to sagebrush country; disease disap pears when shrub has ripened; its propoganda. "Now, there are many plants and trees that make us very sick, and some cause an erythemia, eruption fever and intense prostration. Such as the rhustox the nettle, the red- bud tree and the Jamestown weed. If you will lie down on a bed of green or half-cured lobell and go to sleep you will, never wake up. There are carniverous plants -which actually consume flesh to their nourishment. "There are very poisonous plants that give off effluvia which is very poisonous to human kind. "Microscopical needles prick and chafe the skin like the sting of a sweat bee, yet unobserved by us un til prostrated." A GREAT HOSTELRY. The Work of Making the Hotel Port land Still Better. The Hotel Portland, under H. C. Bowers' management, has grown In popularity from the day he took hold of it. The fact of the matter Is the management has grown with the ho tel, being the best of any hotel man agement on the Coast. It is always alive to the needs of tho traveling public, and no man or woman ever goes to the Hotel Portland without going away as a standing advertise ment of appreciation of that estab lishment At the presentttime the work of en larging, .the ' Portland Js In the pre paratory .stage. The $40fOO0Q recent ly appropriated by the directors of the hotel will" be sufficient to convert that popular hostelry into one of the great public resorts of tho country. The addition and Improvements will be made wholly on account of the increasing business of the hotel un der the efficient management of Mr. Bowers. Tho work will actually bo gin on September 1. Manager Bowers In speaking of tho proposed addition, recently said: "It Is tho Intention to build a room, between tho wings facing on Sixth street, which will be 16 feet high, S5 feet long, by 45 feet wide. It will bo made to answer tho purpose of a ladles' lobby, a ballroom, banquet hall and also for a dlntng room when the houso is crowded, as it has been of late. Tho apartments down stairs will bo converted into an elegant cafe after tho stylo of Zlnkand's, the celebrated resort in San. Francisco. It will be a cafe or ladies and gen tlcmon. Every evening an orchestra will provldo mufSlc for the entertain ment of tho guests. Tho cntranco to tho cafe will bo of the most elegant and pretentious character." At tho Hotel Portland, for $3 a day, a guest can get more for tho money than in any other hotel in tho United States. The same servico, or not as good, In tho east, will cost from $4 to $G a day. The Hotol Port land is an institution that Oregon pcoplo are proud of. It does much for Portland and tho state. Eastern Oregon Timber. R. A. Booth, manager of tho Booth Kellcy Lumber Co., of Eugene, which recently purchased tho land grant of 1,000,000 acres from tho Military Wagon Road Company, with B. J. Pengra, is In eastern Oregon for tho purpose of inspecting; tho lands be longing to" tho grunt cast of tho Cas cade mountains. This inspection is being made to determlno tho best manner of managing tho lands to make them profitable. It is rumored that their vls-it has somo significance in connection with the proposed rail road from Salt Lake through South eastern Oregon, crossing tho Cas cades to Eugene, and thence to tho coast.
