- State Health Officer Brumby la aa ad-
dress before the Bexar County Medlca
assoeiaUaa Thursday night made clear
the reaaona why he would undertake to
bar n oonsompttves tat .the advanced
tagea from entering the State. Tnia
matter baa been widely dlscossed by the
press of tha eoontry and Texas has been
generally critic! aed. but It seems to The
Post that Dr. Bmraby's last statement
ought to be conclutive aa to tb propriety
of the step taken. He seta forth that
multitudes of Indigent consumptives la
the last stage of the disease are flock-
ing to the State when there! ao hop
for their recovery. Immediately . upon
their arrival they become a charge npon
tha public and aB tha State I without
authority to regulate their movements
they flock to the cities where they do
themselves the least good and the public
tha most barm. 't;.; ? 'V. v y
1 The following portion of the health of-
ficer's address ought to appeal to the
Judgment of aU who have been disposed
to criticise the policy of the State to-
ward these unfortunate from the outr
aid: VT."7-;J?K ;?'";".:;
tjf the poor unfortunate could reside
Out la the rural districts and were able
to support themselves they could at leaat
die in peace but at present they are
buffeted about the atreeta and auffer
bardahip that would undermine a strong
man's conatitutlon.
It I true that our cltlea are at pres-
ent earing for many tubercular patlenta
but the burden ia more than they can
properly or Jnatly bear and both the
residents and itinerant consumptive
suffer.
"The publle health Is menaced aU the
more by reaaoa of the fact that our State
health department has not the meana of
sustenance for the individual the author-
ity to regulate their movements or to see
that they take proper precautlona to pro-
tect the public health. It ia our hope
that the next legislature win make ault-
able change in thla direction ao aa to
enable ua to place aome restrictions pa
the spread of the "white plague.' We are
also hoping to see the legislature pro-
ride a State sanitarium for the tuber
eular . ' .' r- '.. '
"But la the meantime we mast can a
bait on the hrmlea of Invalids that are
beguiled Into leaving their friends and
homes by the vaia delusion that they can
eome pennileaa Into Texaa aad be re-
stored to health. More of this class are
already with us thaa we can ear for.
It seems Imperative then that w ahould
not receive others. : '.y
Tt la true the measure eem bard
but the real harsh neat ha been wtth
ihoae well-meaning but shortalghted phil-
anthropist who hare encouraged many
a man la th advanoed Btegee of eon-
sumptioa to forsake borne aad loved one
and aome Into a Strang bud to die. The
proper time for the afflicted to seek a
better cllmat is before tb dlaeaae baa
sapped their strength aad It ts not ho-
naae to encourage them In the deluatoa
that wa have a fbuatata of health ja
Tataa.". ' v .

It Is quite true that Texas must in the
near future establish an open air aanl-
tarium for the benefit of tubercular pa-
tlenta but why why caa not other Statea
establish similar sanitarium ' In the
Weat? Tuberculosis la a menace which
all the Statea must deal with and a alngle
State can not be expected to undertake

'For nearly a whole year the State some
time hack was rent asunder by th cam-
paign waged against United State Senator.
Bailey. It wu bitter and hurtful fn th ex-
treme.' Both aide to th controversy said aad
did thing Inimical to the peace and order of
the Stat. His enemies shewed spirit ef
Intolerance arjd uufairneu . to bo dcplqrod
aad the senator ..himself wa. provoked and.
prodded until be. aaid autay thing that many
ef hi warateet auppertsrs tould aet and did
not approve. Sock wet th attack made npon
hia private and political record that h wa
driven almost to desperation and ha would
have been leaa thaa human had he not used a
mailed band npon hia face; But in aome ef
hia utterance be waa toe severe aad bitter.
Finally the legisiatur settled the matter by:
ha failure te tut tain any of the charges made
aint him and by. electing him to Succeed
mself ia the senate ef the Uaited States a
one of our accredited representatives.- This
terminated the matter to far u Senator Bai-
ley' friend were concerned snd it ought to'
hav settled the matter to far m hia eaemit
are concerned. The battle waa fought all
along the line. Every opportunity era giveav
within th power of the legislature to lay
bare hia private aad official life before the
people ef th State and whea this waa done
and th logialatur acted finally npoa It the
the Sate wa entitled to a rest from the con-
troversy. ' Vt 71
But h settlement of the matter by th
Gjptrty constituted authorities did not sat-
y hia enemies some of them. They are
determined not to let the matter rut So
during last month they attempted to keep the
utter alive and opv as an element or dis-
cord by giving a Sum banquet in the city of
Deltas and Inviting to it those who were fore-
most in th war mad at Austin npon th
senator. But to the credit of the most ef
them they did not encourage tbie edart by
giving to it their pretence. Only a cemptr-
tively tew ef them were present and the'
whole affair wat a frosty performance. What-
ever may have been the relation ef thousand
ef th citisens of th Stat te the Bailey
ueetion the great body of them felt and
fed that th people ef the Stat caa engag
in. something more profitable than perpetuat-
ing etrife and discord among their fellow
men. All good eitiiena.feef that we have had
enoaeh ef thie bueinees and that ha farther
agitation ia not in keeping with the best fn.
tereata ef the people ef the State. Whea the
fight wa en they took tides according te
their view of the matter and they either
fought for er aatintt Senator Bailey with
vigor and determination but whea the fight
ended at Aostia they breathed a sigh of re-
lief and tamed their attention te something
ef mote eetrear te themselves aad to the peo-
ple generally. - It is therefore a msttef ef
eenovelulatioa that many ef the epponenta of
Senator Bailey threw ice water npon their
more enthueiaetie coadjutor whe sought by
th Deltas banquet to rekindle the expiring
embers of this rapidly dying fire ef atrifl
end iU WiU among aien. ...
