THE BOARS OF HEALTH.
The charges preferred hy the Hoard of
llenlth against two of Shenandoah's lead
ing physiciaus, for violating the rules of tl.e
Board iu failing to report communicable
di8esia, was apparently made without projwr
knowledge of the caaea In question. If the
statement made by the offending physicians
before the Board lout evening are to be be
lieved, the chargea are nut only not sub
stantiated, but were mad with ulterior
motives rather than for the public weal. At
least that is the charge made by Drs. ltibcrts
and l'iiiliips at the investigation held last
evening.
'Die ii.iittea made by the I'rcsiden t of the
!oiinl of Health against those two gentlemen
lire of a serious nature, and charges them
with making false returns to gain patleuti
from the people who are sensitive about the
plac.inliu.' of their homes, and it is also
charged that iu many cases where the physl
ciuu it called iu anil proiiomiccathu ailment a
I'Diitagiuiis one ho Is summarily discharged
and ouu who will provide a noti-eontttgious
certificate is employed, These charges were
preferred at the meeting held hist Friday. At
that time some uf the itieiiibe.-s f the Hoard

and tlic meeting of lust night was held for

Thenindoui of an Investigation is shown
in the rculi ot the executive session of the
Hoard, with closed doors, wherein Dr.
Hubert is exonerated uf the charges made
agaiust him. aud those pending against Dr.
l'hillips held over for further Investigation.
Had the Hoard followed the advice of one. or
two of the members no investigation would
have been held, and as a result an innocent
man would have been subjected to a heavy
flue.
The action of the Hoard iu this matter has
set tlio people of Shenandoah to tblnkiug.
and seriously, too. Whilo It is true the
charges ure such that demand tliurotigh In
vestigatiou, and, if substantiated, tho offend
Ins parties dealt with lu accordance with the
regulations of tho Hoard, yet thero are
matters of more serious nature, demanding
the attention of tho Hoard, in which the
members apparently display much less inter
est, notably the sanitary condition of tho
borough. The Flynn ense might be cited as
one. in which the Hoard exhausted
considerable vitality iu a literary di
rcction, and that, too, in direct opposition to
the position assumed by the member from the
First ward, whose constituents aro to-day the
sufferers from the nuisance in question. The
actiou of the Hoard wag taken at an inop
portune time, when the suit of Flynn against
the Horough was pending, ani their literary
effusion win eagerly seized upon by the
counsel lor Flynn iu order to prejudice the
court in it-decision. lleiusa part aud pane!

m.iby places iu the gutters of tho principal
thorough fares of the borough, and notwith
htanding the fact that the attention of the
Hoard, and the Health Officer, has been called
to it time and again it still exists with little
prospect of abatement. Thus tho health of
the people, with the approach of warm
weatlur, is not only endangered, but these
pools of ctaguatit refuse wattt are an eyesore
to our own people, and give Shenandoah a
reputation for uncleanlinesa in the opinion of
vi-ntur-. t'i the town.
At tlu nnuthern end of .lard in street, in
the locality of what is known as "the rocks,"
t ie members of the Hoard van find sutilelent
iL.i-ua for another literary effort. While this
.i3c in ly not demand as much legal thought
aud the consumption of as much writing
paper as did the now well advertised Flynn
rase, yet the conditions are such that tho
Jjnaul should give the matter their im
nic di ite attention. Kefuse water is being
dumped over the rocks by resident of tliat

never goes buck ou you, never changes,

not tho bock's fault. The mere fact that

genuine merit."
"How did your disorder oflect you ?"
"Dxactly as you describe kidney complaint
in your advertising, and my suffering with
pain iu the luck at times was beyond des
cription I most emphatically endorse Doan's
Kidney Pills and shall do all I can to recoiii

THE VOTE ONJTHE TARIFF BILL
ltopulillrnii Objector Will Xnt Oast
Their Voten Against It.
Washington, March Sl.Pnrtjr feeling
ran high during the last day of the
tat Iff debate in the house. Political
speeches were wedged In at every op
portunity, and there war constant
maneuvering for political advantage.
The opposition directed their efforts, as
far as possible, toward stirring up dis
sension on the Republican ijlde, but
thoy succeeded only In exposing a
single instance ot revolt. That wits on
the subject of lTee hides. The Demo
crats pressed the question of a duty on
hides for the benefit of the farmer with
inch vigor that Mr. Hepburn, an Iowa
Republican, was drawn into the debate
and made a strong plea for dutiable
hides. Mr. Cannon, ot Illinois, also
gave a qualified Indorsement to this
demand.
The Republican leaders defended
their bill with vigor. The ways and
means committee held the floor with
their amendments from 10 In the morn
ing to 4 in the afternoon. About 85
were offered and adopted. Among
them was one admitting free of duty
"books, scientific!, apparatus, charts,
maps, etc," for scientific and educa
tional purposes. After that five more
pages of the bill were read, making 20
pages In all of the 162 pages of the bill.
The voting on the bill will begin at 3
o'clock today. There is some talk of a
numlier of Republican votes behg cost
against the bill, but after investigation
It seems probable that there will be no
break In the Republican ranks.
Senator Allen, of Nebraska, made a
long speecn. In the senate on the un
constitutionality of tariff taxes beyond
those requisite for revenue. Mr. Allen
severely criticised the trusts and
combinations, which he declared reap
ed the main advantage of the turiff
tar.es. Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, Intro
duced a resolution requesting the presi
dent for copies of the letters said to
have been written by General Gomez,
the Cuban commander, to Mr. Clove

spent most of the time In executive
session.
