PREVENT DISEASE. i V
" (From Saturday's paily.J
Governor' Geer yesterday received the
biennial report of State. Bacteriologist
Emile F. Pernot. In his letter of trans
mittal, Dri Pernot calls attention : to
the more Important bacterial diseases
which exist in -the state, threatening
the people with afflictions and jeopard
izing the stock industry-by spreading
contagious! disease 'among the herds.
The work which he has done, he states,
has been along the line of investigating
bacterial conditions by specimens sent
to the laboratory from various parts of
the state. 'His work Is greyly enhanc
ed by being in his college position
which provides the necessary experi
mental equipment. He makes many
suggestions as seem necessary for the
health of the people and protection of
the stock Industry and states that there
are many problems yet to be solved In
the economic uses of micro-organisms.
He urges the necessity of enacting
and enforcing such laws as will be most
effective in preventing diseased stock
and poultry from entering ; the state.
,and to take such measures as seem
nessary to stamp out the existing
contagious diseases. In order to protect
the stock industry, i
Iiacterial diseases, he states, vary In
thir virulence, under different. climatic
conditions.' in the same animals. The
histological and, pathological variations
being more marked-in that part of the
rtate lying west of the Cascade lioun
tains. In that district, he states, there
is adiseaise among swine which Is eith
er a. new disease or a known one so
modified by climatic 'conditions and
environments as to produce unfamiliar
symptoms; and leison arid from a num
ber of pathological speciments from
the diseased hogs he has beenunable
to satisfactorily determine thej true
n:itureof the disease.
He also calls attention to the neces
sity of surveillance of the vaccine sent
anto the tate, especially anthrox and
black leg; vaccine, which are composed
of v virulent germs' and spores, so at
tenuated as to produce immunity In
inocculated animals, and, so long as
this vaccine Is furnished? from a reli
able source, he states, nothing but good
will result from its use, but. If the vac
cine Is too virulent there Is danger of
producing the disease instead of the
immunity." )
Another important ' question to
gtockmen which 'he discusses Is the
Vioper disposal of the carcasses of ani
mals which have died of contagious dia
ease. It) frequently happens, he says,
that the carcases are thrown into the
"tretms which furnish water supply to
utock below, which he condemns as an
lexceedir.glV" dangerous practice and ijt
should Le strictly " forbidden. From
several cases of black leg which he has
diagnosed, from the Columbia ' river
bottoms, he is, satisfied that the disease
In these cases- was contracted from the
indigestion ,of spoies in the forage and
the source of these spores Is traceable
, to carcasses .of diseased animals which
contaminated! the streams In Eastern
Oregon tributary to the Columbia. The
spores find their way into the animal's
body, he argues, by being deposted on
the grass in the pasture lands during
the high water which, floods the latter.
Should the animal, which eats of the
' grass bearing the spores, be susceptible.
it succumbs and a fresh outbreak of the
disease, though niiles away from the
original source, is the result, all through
thf careless disposition of carcasses. It
is also customary, he Ways, for ' stock
. raisers to remove and sell the hides of
Jne animals regardless of the disease
l from which they have died, which, he
v claims. Is a' detriment to their own
; interests, because It is the means of
scattering countless spores "which? may
fall from the hides wherever they' are
taken. ) ' ; - , T:
: He is keeping constant vigilance In
order to detect the presence of Texas
fer among the herds tof Southern Ore-.
as some portions of that section
are conducive to the development of
the th k; which carries the protozoa, but
o tar he has been unable to detect any
thing, .j : .
He reports five case of anthrax dur
'ng the past Ave months, which he diag
nosed from pathological specimens re
ceived t the laboratory, two of bovine
andnhree of equine. The heaviest loss
stock maintained was an outbreak

Inflammation of the papillae of the
skin, on the outside of the lips, spread
Ing gradually to the periphery of the

ease through all Its stages and states
in conclusion that he found, upon the
application of eqial parts of I thy col
and vaseline to the affected parts, that
the Intense irritation was f ootheLAid a
speedy cure effected. ;One outbreak of
the disease in Benton county, where
600 sheep were affected, resulted in the
loss of a small nun.ber from starvation
and suffocation, and another; case in
Lincoln county waa reported which waa
more widespread. -. -.. 4 .' , : ,
Among the bacterial diseases In poul
try he found that the Aosin tuberculos
is was by far the most fatrft, especially
to chickens, and, once Introduced into
a flock, spreads rapidly from fowl to
fowl by the food being contaminated
with the bacilli from the droppings of
diseased birds. ' r
- From lack of absolute facts it Is im
possible to trace the disease to any
particular source, yet in two instances
which he cites he is satisfied in his own
opinion that it was transmitted to the
fowl, from human sputum, and,"con-
sidering th carelessness and Indiffer
ence with which peoplel expectorate
upon the streets and . public- places,
which acounts for the perpetuation of
the disease. It seems astonishing that
all of the inhabitants are not stricken
with the fatal malady." He also con
demns the Chinese method of sprink
ling clothing by blowing water from
their mouth in such a manner as to
form an atomised spray, and recom
mends that some steps be taken to have
this unsanitary practice discontinued.
He states that he has found chickens
in the markets with livers that were a
mass of tubercular cysts and,, upon
other occasions, milk has been receiv
ed at the laboratory that was. found to
contain . thousands of bovine tubercle
bacilli to the cubic centimeter. '
He states in conclusion that he is at
present making an examination of a
test for tubercle bacilli in milk from the
different sources which supply Port
land and other towns of the Willam
ette valley. Each sample is centrifug
ed, examined with .the microscope, and
a guinea pig Is inoculated ; with one
cubic centimeter of; the precipilate.
This, he .says, is being done to ascer
tain the extent of tuberculous milk
consumed, and the virulence of the bac
illi. " : i - .
.The report Is quite , a voluminous
document and touches upon every va
riety of "bacilli and the description of
the many different diseases of animals
and fowls. , ,
MUST STAY OUT
SMALLPOX ON THE RESERVA
TION AND INDIANS ALL PUT
IN QUARANTINE. .,
' s (From Saturday's Dally.) "
There were no Indians In town from
the reservation yesterday and In all
probability there will" not , be any ? in
town for several days yet. The reser
vation has been quarantined and not
until the spread- of the ; disease ' has
been arrested and the residents quar
antined will there be any Indians al
lowed through the lines or to enter the
city.- This law, was put in force yes
terday morning. after a conference be
tween Dr. ?ole of this city, health of
ficer, and Major Wilkins and the agency
physicfan. There are now' three well
developed cases of smallpox among the
Indians on the reservation and It Is
thought that one of these will prove
fatal-. ,- j :'. -
The. agency authorities are handling
the contagion in excellent manner. A
strict, quarantine is placed over the
.patients and everyone compelled to
be vaccinated. This will require sev
eral days time to effect a complete
vaccination, but until this has been
done" no Indian will . be ; allowed to
leave the reservation. After they have
been vaccinated and can show a physi
cian's certificate they will be allowed
to enter the city and transact necessary
business, but as to loafing on the
streets, as has been their usual custom,
they -will not be allowed this privilege
for some, time yet. ' ;
It is very difficult matter to control
the Indians In a case lika the present
one. : It is also very difficult to check
the spread of the disease, owing to the
tendency of the Indians to disobey the
rules as laid down. The Indians do not
like the Idea of bi'ng vaccinated and
fight it to the last. This' made it .nec
essary that the reservation be quaran
tined. ' ' ". : " '
It Is thought that the disease was
brought , to the Umatilla, reservation by
this Lyman woman from the Takima
Indians." She is known to have been
visiting among the members of that
tribe, and was taken down with small
pox a short tim? after her return home.

MERELY- INCORPORATED IN t HIS
COMMUNICAlTION THE EXPRESS
ED VIEWS OF OTHERS AS TO
RESULT OF LEWIS AND CLARK
FAIR IN PORTLAND.
(From Saturday's Daily.) ,
SALEM. Or., Dec 23. (To the Edit
or.)-PermIt roe to suggest a solution
of the pending problem jf " providing
adequate quarters of the various GoV'
iernment offices now located In "Port
land. The new Government building In
this city is about completed, and after
its occupancy by the postal authorities,
will afford ample room also for the ac
commodation of the Federa' Courts and
Surveyor-GeneraL Indeed, the logical
situs of these officers is at the 1 State
Capitol, where the law library of the
state and the records of the State Land
Office are accessible. 7
I am Informed that in nearly all of
the states of the Union the Federal
Courts are so located, presumably for
this reason.' In this, case, however. It
is purely a question of economics. ; It
would be deemed bad management in
any other business to rent or lease out
siae property ror Its use at great ex
pense when It had ample accommoda
tions of its own. conveniently located
and perfectly adapted to Its repuire-
ments. , --
If you, Mr. Editor, were the sole man
ager of Uncle Sam's Oregon business.
you would not lease outside quarters or
erect a new building for your use if you
had a suitable one already built and
unoccupied.
Fit up your present Postoffice build
ing for the exclusive use of the Postof
fice Department and move the Federal
Courts and Surveyor-General's office
Into the new Federal building at the
capital. Local prejudices and jealous
ies, as well as possible incidental local
benefits, should be disregarded m the
solution of such economic questions.
which should be fairly adjusted In ac
cordance with the eternal fitness of
things, trustfng the stern logic of events
to work reciprocal compensation.
For instance. Salem has been from
the beginning the "Fair" City of Ore
gon, but when the great Lewis and
Clark Centennial Exposition was pro
posed, we all acquiesced without a mur
mur in its being located at Portland.
and are willing to be taxed for its pro
motion, even though. In the opinion of
many, the , logical results will be the
permanent location of the State Fair at
Portland after 1905. f
J. H. ALBERT.
The above appeared as a communica,
t ion in the Oregonian of Sunday, De
cember 28 th. M. D. Wisdom, secre
tary of the State, Fair Board. 'assuming
that Mr, Albert believes the Oregon
State Fair will, "likely be moved .to
Portland. . gives a number of good
reasons in his "Roral Spirit newspaper
why the State Fair should and will re
main .at Salem. ' .
) Mr. Albert did not say in his com
munication that the State Fair, will
'likely be moved to Portland," but that
the people of Salem are "willing to'be
taxed for its- (the 11905 Exposition's)
promotion, even though. In the opin
ion of mahy, the, logical result will be
the permanent location "Of the State
Fair at Portland after 1903."
Mr: Albert does not believe this will
be the logical result, nor does he be
lieve the State Fair will "likely be mov
ed , to Portland," after 1905, or at- any
time. Nor can there be any Inference
properly deduced from anything he has
ever done or written that he Is disloyal
to the Capital City. - ' . " .
FOR STATE LAND AGENT
JOHN M. RALSTON AND L. H. MON
TAYNE ASPIRE TO THE
POSITION.
i 'Albany has two candidates' for State
Land Agent to succeed Lt B. Oeer, the
present official.' This appointment will
be made by Governor Chamberlain and
is one of the few plums that the Demo
cratic Governor will have to divide
among the faithful. The office pays $1.
800 a. year and traveling expenses and
a hot contest will be waged for' the
place. Mrs Montayne- Is a lawyer in
this city and has considerable support,
but Mr. Ralston, apparently has the In
side track, and if the appointment is
made from this county he will prob
ably be the fortunate man. Mr. Ral
ston is well known in business circles
in this county and has many friends.
He is city councilman from the- Second
ward, having been twice elected.' re-
celving the nomination on the Republi
can ticket both times. The Republicans
feel very kindly ' towards him. as dur
ing the Bryan silver wave, he took a
decided stand on the. money question,
remaining loyal to the gold standard,
and acting with the Republicans. For
this" help rendered at that time, they
feel under deep obligations to him and
Governor Chamberlain would certainly
please, not only the Democrats. ! : but

ENJD OF "OPERA ALLEY."
TACOMA. Wash-,, Jan. 9. Chief of
Police Fackier has announced that af
ter Saturday next there will be no more
"Opera Alley," which for years , Ijas
been knowtf as the tenderloin district
of Tacoma, and has disgraced a section
almost in the very heart of ' the city.
The manner in which the denizens of
this quarter were forced to vacate, and
subsequent : events by which Peter
Sandberg, a well known sport and the
owner of nearly a score of saloons in
Tacoma, has erected a frame building
containing 200 rooms for the purpose
of furnishing quarters for this class of
people, has led to rumors that somebody
or severalj somebodies connected with
the city government,' has made some
thing handsome out of the move. No
names are mentioned, and it is likely
that a possibility has been assumed as
a probability. " The moral element of
the city is satisfied to see "Opera Alleys
vacated, even, if the denizens do rush
under a roof owned and controlled by
an Individual. - ,
' TWICE A GRANDDAD!

WHY NOT SALEM ?
IF EFFORT WAS PUT FORTH
COULD SECURE CARNEGIE
LIBRARY. -
IT
. (From Saturday's Daily.) . . ,
Why may not Salem secure a library
from Andrew Carnegie?
Nine or ten California cities have se
cured such libraries.
Los Gatos, California, is a city cred
ited with less than 2,000 population. It
has two weekly newspapers with 800
and 750 circulation respectively. Yet
Los Gatos has a Carnegie library al
most ready for business. j.
The following concerning this new li
brary with- a Los Gatos date-line, is
from, the San Jose Mercury, ot Monday
of this week:
The new' library building, the gift of
Andrew Carnegie to the city of . Los
Gatos, is rapidly Hearings completion.
The brick and stone work was complet
ed last week in a most satisfactory
manner by B. F. Williams, who had the
contract for that work. Mr. Hooper,
the contractor for the carpenter .work,
will probably finish his work this week.
so that the building by the first of next
week will be ready for the plastering
and tiling.
The building is being- erected under
the supervision of the Library Building
Committee, composed of James IL Lyn
don. A. Berryman," B. P. Shuler. W. H.
B. Trantham and D. P Simon. The
plans were - drawn by the well known
architects, Doliyer A, Sawyer.
The building is situated on the east
side of" University avenue, near the
Los Gatos High School, and in a cen
tral part of the city. The structure is
of brick, all of which will be cemented
over, ,with the exception of the three
arches at the entrance,' which are of
yellow pressed brick. .
The size of the library building will
be 40x50, with basement, and wilt be
lighted by both gas and electric lights,
and the roof will be tiled. It will be
one of the most beautiful and substan
tial structures in Santa Clara county.
a credit to its donor. and to the Gem
City of the foothills. .
The library will be .ready for occu
pancy in about six weeks. .
Everyone who passes the building
these" days looks at It in a very ques
tioning manner to see if anything new
appears. The structure is now at tnat
period which is most interesting. When
the foundation could ' be seen above
ground ail know what It Was there for.
and that it wauld not change Its .ap
pearance; but now," each day a new
touch is added, and people wonder what
this and that is for, and possibly the
next day their question is answered.
so it Is a continual source of interest.
After another week of the same steady
work many new touches will be ob
served. . ' I
The remark heard from old and
young Is "Won't it be nice when It is
finished and ready for use?" AH are
looking forward with much pleasure
to when that time 'comes.
No doubt the inside will be most
comfortable and Inviting. It has been
said, that humanity gets as much pleas
ure out of anticipation ; as from the
pleasure itself, but in this case it will.
no doubt, be a lasting and beneficial
source of "enjoyment. - J

Chamberlain, who recently came across
the' continent alone from Natchez, Miss.,
forj the purpose of witnessing the Inau

is jn her eighty-second year, and she
Was accompanied by Mrs. Chamberlain
and her little daughter, and by Mrs. jC.
B. Shelton, who has been stenographer
in the office of Mr. Chamberlain .and
will occupy the same position in the of
fice of the new Governor. It will be the
happiest day of Grandmother Chamber
Iain's life when she sees her son assume
the dignities of the chief executive "of
this great state, so far away from the
state of his birth in the sunny., south
land. Mississippi. After Grandmother
Chamberlain- shall have witnessed the
ceremonies -.of the Inauuguration, she
will be ready to commence her return
trip to her distant home, which she will
do in a few days. The .people of Salem
will regret that the good lady does not
become a' resident of the Capital City,,
but she would hot live here, even j if
she should decide to make her home in
Oregon, for Mr. Chamberlain will con
tinue to make his home in Portland af
ter having assumed his' place as Gov

suffering is a fact of our earthly life;
that Jesus came- not to abolish suffer
