Hereafter when a taxpayer goes

official will make his place of resi
dence a matter of record, by virtue of

Prospects for a 30 days' session have

Today marks the half-way point of

the Legislature is a week behind the
record of two years ago. So far the
number of House bills has reached
the 245 mark, few of which have been
passed and comparatively no Senate
bills read.

SCARE IS SUBSIDING
Physicians Express Belief That Scar
let Fever Will Not Spread
Further.
DALLAS,
The scarlet fever scare in Dallas
is subsiding, anil it is believed
that the disease will not spread beyond
the homes already Infected. The
number of cases in town does not
exceed ten, all reports to the contrary
notwithstanding, and most of the
cases are of a mild form. It is a sig
nificant fact that no new cases have
developed this week outside the homes
where the disease already existed.
Two deaths have occurred, one of the
victims being the little daughter of
Mrs. Cal Hutton, and the other the
small child of Mr. and Mrs. E. W.
Matheney. All of the homes infected
have been quarantined, and the public
school has been closed as a pre
cautionary measure. County Health
Officer W. S. Cary, the city officers,
and physicians of Dallas are co-operating
to keep the disease in check, and
will endeavor to do everything
necessary to prevent a further spread.
The health officers will endeavor to
pursue the same course that was
followed a few years ago when Dallas
was visited by small-pox, namely, to
conceal no facts, but to give out the
whole truth concerning the extent of
the contagion, and to take every pro
caution considered wise and necessary
in stamping out the disease. It is the
plain duty of every citizen to lend all
reasonable assistance in this work, as
the officers desire to do only what is
best for the town and Its people, and
no attention should be paid to wild
street rumors circulated by excitable
and Irresponsible persons. It Is
proper to use every necessary precau
tion to prevent a further spread of the
fever, and this can only be done by
pursuing a calm and sensible course.
Again, but this time in the form of
a petition to the Legislature, comes
the charges of misadministration
against Superintendent C. W. James
and Warden Frank Curtis of the pen
itentiary, which will be presented to
the Senate this morning bearing the
signature of Attorney L. II. Mahon,
of Salem. The petition will probably
be introduced by either Keuator
Howe or Senator Wright aud another
will doubtless be presented to the
House of Representatives later iu the
day.
The petition contains substantially
the same charges against the head
officials of the prison as were con
tained in the communication from
Mr. McMahon as published by the
Statesman about a year ago. They
are also the same as the charges made
in the recent action brought by J. K.
Sears in the circuit court against the
prison management.
In substance the petition charges
the wrongful application of about
$2000 of the penitentiary betterment
fund by Superintendent James to his j
personal use, in the purchaseof furni
ture aud provisions for his house-'
hold and that of Warden Curtis and
that the two officials have been using
the convicts as menials about their
respective households, contrary to the
laws of the state.
The charges are couched in terms of
anything but a mild nature and ask
that a joint committee from both
houses be appointed to make a full
investigation with power to subpoena
witnesses and take testimony under
oath as to what they know of affairs
at the penitentiary. It is understood
that a resolution has been prepared
and will be presented by another
Senator providing for the appointment
of this joint committee. Thursday's
Statesman.
