CltYDERMAN, Public Notice. During the past few weeks a tragedv on right and justice has been enacted and who is accountable? Judge ye. It will bo remembered that we had Borne? thing to say on tho subject some tirpa ago and at that time the board of health inserted the following in both papers, The Tribune and Th s Tolegrph: "Sec. G. Art. 7, Chap. 55, Revised Statutes of Nebraska 1903, grants authority to the Nebraska state board of health to make rules relativo to the control of contngiouB, infectious and epidemic diseases and a fine of from ten ($10) to one hundred ($100) dollars is imposed upon anyone convicted of failing, neglecting or reiusmg to en force such rules. The ordinances of our local city government are in harmony with the state board's regulations." "In narticular tho rules require that that diphtheria (membraneous croup) scarlet fever, scarletina or scarlet rash, bo quarantined for (35) thirty five days. Local boards of health are required to act accordingly and the board of health of tho city of North Platto will carry out its instructions without variation or favor." Now for examples of how it has been carried out: Mrs. Baegett s homo was quarantined five weeks for diphtheria. Miss Blake's homo was quarantined five weeks for diphtheria. Mrs. Kosbau's houso was quaran tined five weeks for scarlet fever. Another nhvsician was sunnosed to havo seven or eight cases of diphtheria and here is how tho law was adminis tered in his first three cases. Mrs. W. T. Wilcox 8 homo quaran tined twenty-two days for diphtheria. Jesse Edward's homo quarantined for two weeks for diphtheria. Mr. Walker quarantined eighteen days for diphtheria. Any variation orlavornerei wiry out the local board of health look on and never question? Surely thoy must havo thought that tncy wore supposed cases, but whv thev wero so critical when your humblo servant had one enso of true diphtheria, and so composed in the presence of soven or oighf. To mo it certainly is a problem. It looks too much like discrimination. It certainly is high time that people havo equal rights In these matters be fore tho law, and when money and in fluence and tho ring do not figur; when tho poor nnd tho rich will have things in common in the intorfst of health and tho prevention of dis ease. For after all "ono touch of na turo has made us all kin", and withi.ut doubt wo nro our brother's keeper, and ouirht to remember tho injunction "to do as wo arc donoby". Therefore if it wero right to quarantine tho three former cases five weeks it was a ling rant injustice to tho formor and to the community to allow tho throe lat ter out poonor than tho timo specified hy law; except that it was not dipn thoria.
