ItiK the proposition to substitute a prohiln
tlon law for tbo present high license- lau
that the will of the people Is su
pro mo and must bo heeded. It
the face of the heavy nni
overwhelming defeat which prohibition ro
celvcd Iu the state , ho don't see how ho cat
vote conscientiously for statutory prohibitloi
when the people have shown conclusive ! }
that they rien't want it. Had therobcen onlj

to the present high license law , making nl

Tlio people there hud bv u majority dccldod

hero would bo to oppose the people's willund
ho will not do it.

DIPHTHERIA AND ITS CURE ,
Dr. W , H , Hanchott's ' Vlows Upon tlio
Prevalence of the Disease.
HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT OFTHE DISEASE
Gooil Naming- , Dieting , l ) | < tlni'cctiints
nun isolation Necessary tu tlio
llaplil lleeovery of tlio
Stricken Patient.
Dr. W. II. Ilnnchctt has written a very
timely article upon diphtheria for the current
number of Tim Medical and Surijlcal Hocord ,
the organ of his school In the west.
Much of the matter is new , and ns It comes
at a tinio when the disease has stilt a hold
upon our people , It should bo read with o
great deal of Interest by followers of the new
schaol , if not by those who still believe In
the fnlth of their fathers.
In speaking about the presence of diph
theria , Dr. llanchcll snysi
"As so much has been said of lute concern
ing the prevalence of diphtheria In our city ,
wo preface our remarks by saying that at
this season of the year and in this climate we
usually have an epidemic of this dreaded dis
ease , nioro or loss suvcro. Tlio present ye.ir
has not bccu an exception , although most of
our physicians who have prnctlcad in Omaha
for several yc.xrs think the present season ,
thus far , loss marked by the malig
nant typo of the disease than the
last six years or inoro have been.
The report of cases has been
very full ; as the board of health
has urjrod , tnoro strenuously than over before
fore , the matter of reporting contagious or
infectious diseases. Undoubtedly many cases
of tonsilllla have been reported as diphtheria ,
The boundary line between mnBlignaut ton-
silltis and mild forms of diphtheria is BO iiar-
now Unit oven the most skillful must bo on
the ulcrt to detect the difference. The physi
cian can hardly call every case where every
patch of gray or white appears upon tlio ton
sils , ns diphtheria ; and yet , from tills very
mild caSe may ho generated a most malignant
case of true diphtheria In another member of
the household. Some deaths have been re
ported , to bo sum ; but In a population of
KiO.OOU people , of whom a largo percentage is
children , tills is not extraordinary.
"Tho epidemic has not been In any sense
alarming , compared with its course In other
cities. The impression lias gone abroad that
wo have been having n terrible scourge from
this malady. Some tlmo last month , while
in another city , wo chanced to pick up a local
daily paper , and were surprised to bee in
startling headlines that uipntheria was carry
ing olT many of our children nnd breaking up
our schools. Now , while wo hnnrtily second
every effort made by the hoard of health to
control and stamp ontjUny disease , and to iin-
nrovo the sanitary condition of the city , we
feel it is quite necessary to avoid any exag-
gomtinn of a detrimental nature to Omaha. "
Iu speaking upon the treatment of the dls-
ca-o ho snys :
As to the treatment of diphtheria , all
homiuopnthlo physicians will agree that the
carefully selected remedy is always ncces-
stirv. In this brief article it cannot be ex
pected that all remedies used in the treat
ment of this disease can bo mentioned. Only
a few ot the more common will be noticed ,
with some of the adjuvants which have been
fomm effective.
1. Aconite during the llrst few hours of
the disease is always a good remedy ; and
generally , if the puticht has been seen early ,
should bo given.
y. Merf. Cynn. and lod. When other
symptoms appear of a more malignant tvpe.
The throat becomes involved , together with
the parotid and sub-maxillary glands.
Urealh very offensive. Yellowish or gray
membrane on ono yr both tonsils. Alwrys
worse at night. High fever , with sticky
perspiration.
: t. Kail BIcli. Extremely cropy saliva.
Difticult expectoration. Glands involved.
4. Laehcsis. Gray membrane beginning
on left toribll , extending to right , .
f ) . Lyeopotiimu. Membruud extending
from ritrht to left.
0. Belladonna. Offensive breath ; little
membrane ; great heat about the head and
throat ; throbbing carotids ; constantly ' calling
for water , and only taking enough to'moistoa
the liiis. Extreme cltillculty in swallowing.
7. Arsenlcum. Crent prostration of body ,
but constant moving of bauds and arms. In
tense thirst , but painful swallowing. Very
pale nnd deathly appearance. This is a grand
remedy when the blood seems thorouphly
poisoned and when the vital forces seem to ho
giving way. At this time it may save your
patient when no other remedy will.
Among other prominent remedies ore
nitrie and murlatiu acids , arum triphylluui ,
eupatorium , baptisin , gclsomlum , where
there Is paralysis and digitalis iu case of
heart failure. A long list couhl ho added of
those remedies which are often useful and
are frequently necessary.
Usually nn epidemic remedy seems to bo
the genius for certain seasons. This year wo
have found kail bich. to bo the chnson one.
It is a monument to our law of "sirnilia , " aud
a God-send to our suffering little patients.
Gurgles , sprays and all applications are
mainly useful in the llrst stasjes , of trio dis
ease , for the reason that wo wish to kocp , as
fur as possible , the disease localized. How
ever , after largo surfaces are iill'ectoj and the
system is thoroughly poisoned , it is the in
ternal remedy upon which wo must depend ,
and wo must all admit that whether wo ac
cept the theory of the disease being at llrst
local or that it is from the start constitution
al , the loss surf ice covered by tlio membrane
the better , both for patient and doctor.
In nil manipulations extreme ( jontlcncss
must bo used , especially with children. Noso-
bleeu and hemorrhage from denuded sur
faces mav bo easily provoked , both of which
should bo cautiously avoided.
Good nursing Is of paramount importance.
Keo that your best nurses have your diph
theria cases Iu charge. Children should not
bo allowed the freedom of rising when they
wish , during convalescence. Some ono must
bo with the putlent who knows enough to de
tect heart failure , which comes , ns wo all
know , often when the patient U considered
out of danger. A skillful nurse is an abso
lute necessity , for ignorance , no matter how
well intentioncd , has no prerogative for
blundering with a severe case of diphtheria.
The diet Is also of importance. All the way
through , care should bo taken not to over
crowd the stomach , yet urging all the food
which can bo assimilated. Hot milk is the
multi-stay ; beef extract , grape Julco , and
many other foods coino in well , their use , of
course , being governed by the ngo of the pa
tient.
Disinfectants should bo persistently used ,
by spray and fumigation. Bichloride of
mercury , brome ctilonilum , carbolic acid nnd
sulphur arenmonst the best. All cloths nnd
handkerchiefs used about the patient should
bo burned at once.
The patient should bo completely isolated.
Willie diphtheria Is not highly contagious , as
are measles , smallpox , etc. , yet It Is so highly
infectious that wo class It among "contagious
diseases. "
As to tha use of prophylactics , there Is a
wide diversity of opinion among medical
men. No doubt any thlnp which will promote
health aud vigor in children is of vast im
portance. Nutritious food , warm clothing
regular habits , full allowance of sleep arc
amoiiR the Important things. Thorough ven
tilation should bo uniformly prac
ticed. A housewife should each day
allow our Nebraska zephyrs to
play through every room la her
house , no matter how cold the weather. Five
minutes will bo well spent In this way , tak.
Ing n room at a tlmo , winch aho will Hnd fat
more easily heated , by the way , after its dose
of fresh ulr.
Often the epidemic remedy may bo given
to the exposed child with benefit.
Tracheotomy has proven such nn utter fall-
tire that wo can only say It is hardly a factot
in saving life in this discaso. ItUagrim
( lucstlon whether it has not cost more lives
than It has saved.
Intubation Is more successful , ns no blood
is lost by the operation ; but still , results
from It are not what could bo desired.
Lot us hope that wo. may more thoroughly
understand this inattor , which has been , anil
Is , the "drend of childhood1' ' by many mi
anxious mother ; and that , under our homo-o
pathlo treatment , the RUCX-CSS already at-
tallied , 03 shown by statistics , may bu still
greater In the future. Lotushopa that our
vocation may Indeed bo hallowed by the
snatching from the jtuvs of this foil monster
tlio precious lives or chllarcn , whoso parents
would gladly give their own to savo.
