THE DAILY BREE---THUR JAY, JANUZRY 1, 1885. el —_— COUNCIL BLUFFS ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS, * DEFENSE OF THE DOCIOR. His Proof That He Does Not Merit The Censare of the Beard of Health, Let The Rest Be 8Shown Up, The county physiclan, Dr. Bellinger, does not propose to rest under the reso lation of the board of health censuring him, and produces a statement and certi- fioates showing that he has attended to his daties. The facts concerning the girl's sudden death seem now to point to some neglect on the part of the nuras. It would be a relief to the public If they could be assured otherwise, and also that the Flaharty famlly, whilo quarantined, wers supplied with necessary food and fuel at all times, It would also bo satis- factory to know whether the four women quarantined at the Coy house were neg- lected as to provislons and fuel. None of these were alck, nor were they a county charge, but they were quaran- tined by the city board of health, kept from going out or coming in, and 1t seoma that no provislon was made for their comfort. Now that the small pox scare if-virtually over, and the danger of an epidemic passed, it will be well to have the facts all brought out, so that if there has been any neglect or careloss: ness, it may not occur again, should oc- casion arise to use quarantine measures, The following is the doctor's showlng: A CARD TO THE PUBLIC, Couxcrr, Brurrs, December 30,—No- ticing in Tur Bek of the 30th that the board of health had consured me for gome difficulty oxperienced in the gen- eral care of tho late *‘smallpox” patients, & would like to state the dutles of county thll»n in full. First, the county phys— clan is engaged by the county supervisors to attend to all paupers or people unable to help themselves, requiring medical aid or mediclne, when ordered by the over- seer of poor or any member of eaid coun- ty board. The daty of the county phys- iclan 1s to see to medical supplies and in casen of infective or contaglous diseases to seo;that all hyglenicimeasures are car- ried out, {such as disinfecting and de- stroying all contagious germs, the board holding the physician responsible for all injury (medical) when due to his negli- gence. This comprises all of the duties of the county physiclan, He is not obliged to furnish fuel, food or shelter, has no right to distribute orders except for medicine, and when giving his services and medicine he fullfills his contract to the letter. sum up the charges made by the board of health, and see how far I was implicated. First, I did not visit patients regularly; second, I did not enter the room but handed the medicine in from the outside; third, not furntshing food. This I disre- gard entirely an belng out of my jurisdio- |5 tlon, and something I had nothing to do with. The followlng certificates 1 think will disprove all charges and convince the board of health that they acted rather hastlly in the matter. In con- clusion I wovld like to state that so far a8 the “Coy house” s concerned, I had nothing to do with it whatever. The proprietor engaged me to attend him while I was attending Mr. Crumb. He is not a county charge, and the count has nothing to do with him whatever. attended him rogularly as I would any of my cases, and charged him for each visit. The board of health quarantined the Coy house, and when under quarantine should vide a way by which food and fuel could be obtained by the inmates. Mr, D, Crumb was the only patient at the Coy house that I was ordered to at- tend and that came under the county charge. Frep P, BeLuiNGer, M.

E. W. Gray. Couxo 1 hereby certify that Dr. Bellinger has attended me from Docember 17th to date for small pox, and that he made from one to two visits u day whilo I was con- fined to bed.

New York Sun, John L. Sullivan’s saloon in Boston is not as gorgeous as the western correspond- ents have described it to bo, It is_just such another saloon as Alderman Jerry Murphy’s, minus the pls s window, only a little more elbow room for Mr. Sullivan to move around in. It is in the 0dd Fellows’ hall block on Washington street just beyond Kneeland. It is out of place where it is. In all the other store windows hats and valises and trunks makes stay. ched along the whole front of the saloon, is the legend, “John L. Sullivan's,” in gold letters a foot high. The window glass is not plate, and o old- fashioned as to have four panes to each window. The side panes are cut in two in the middle. Gas jetsof the cheap- est kind light up each window. In the one nearest Kneeland street is a chair, such as one sces in all the fancy furniture stores, with bull horns for legs and back, and a bit of bull’s hide for a seat. Per- sons who have seen a hundred others just like and and stare at this one because it is in Sullivan’s window.

The bar is like many an ordinary bar in this city, except that it is brighter and more_cheerful looking than the ma- jority.

A TEXAS COWGIRL. Chases the A Young Woman Wh Steers and Roands Up Her Un. cle's Herds—A Testimonial from Cowboy Ad- mirers, There is an ocean of prairie about this now town, says a Midland (Tex ) corre- spondent, and it rises and falls as far as the eye oan reach like the swell of a With a strong glass one can see in the distance a maas of sheep, tonded by a lonely shepherd, in a yollow “licker,” or oilakin ulster, and a black Spanish shepherd dog. Herds of ante- lope, following a leader, scamper _across the plaine, stirring up flocks of Mexican quail and pratrie chickens, and causing excitement in the prairie-dog towns, where the fat rodents plunge headlong into their holes, and then stick out their heads to see what startled them. Like a dark cloud on the horizon, great herds of oattle appear in tho dlstance, elther In the distance or under the guard of cow boys, holding them. The herd of Col. A. W. Dunn, president of the Colorado Natlonal bank, came upon the plains the other day, and the colonel camo here with his nlece, Miss Marie By- num, of Mississippi, to ‘‘out out,” as the phrase goer, the beeves that were ready for market, and to pen them in the cattle pen at the rail- road station. The wild Texas steers were fallof life and run, and the cow- boys had thelr hands full, with all their okill, to get them penned. Col. Dunn, who is & typical cowman, mounted a maustang to help the cowboys, and his niece insisted upon going aloog with him. She could not be persuaded that there was any danger In the adventure, or that her dress and sex placed her at any dis— advantage In an_effort for which the cow- boys were rigged with Mexican spurs, big leather leggings, three or foor revolvers, lariats at their saddle horn, big white sombraros with rsttlesnake skins twisted about them, and watch chains of snake ratiles, She insisted that If she could get a awift pony and » slde saddle she would show that she could ride alongside of the wildest steer and tarn him, In spite of his dangerous horns, The pony was provid- ed, and Mis Bynum, placing her foot in the hand of a cowboy, leaped into the saddle, and, gathering up the reins, dashed off with a hearty laugh, followed by her escort of cowboys, who spun over the pralrie after her. She reined up as they came into the herd, as the process of selection of the beeves required a quick judgment that only experlence gives, The cowboys went into the herd, and their trained ponles, when they were pointed to steers that were to be ‘‘cut out,” ran them out of the herd; and, as soon as the bunch was formed, the cow- boys swung around them, and Miss Bynum, with a lash made of the end of the reins, started her pony forward and jolned in the seml-circle and separated the steers to the pen. The work was ex- citing to a novice, and the fair cowgirl’s cheeks flushed as she sped along. A big brown steer, all branded over, reared up; and, breaking out of the line, tossed his horns and tall up and started off like a deer. Miss Bynum whirled her pony and started after the animal. She did her work bravely. The cowboys watched her with admiration. Her pony dashed alongside of the steer, and the cowboya expected that, as the animal turned, he would catch his horns in her drapery, or she would plunge over the pony’s head as he turned with the steer. They saw her stop as the steer turned and balance her- self like a skilled equeetrienne, and then head off the steer and turn him back. Soon she came dashing back alongside the steer and landed him in the bunch that was headed for the pen. Several of the cowboys pronounced her a ‘‘thor- oughbred” "and a *‘ong horn”—their choicest compliments, for, in the fertile vocabulary of the cowboy, the terms “‘half breed” and *‘short horn” are equi- valent to the ‘‘tendertoot” of days gone by, with, perhaps, a shade more of deris. ion to them. Miss Bynum, when the first lot of cat- tle was penned, dashed back to the herd, and with a little instruction began to help *'cat out” the cattle. Each trip from the herd to the pen was marked by some exciting chass of a steer, and each time the young woman bore horself bravely, and she did notlet a single stees escope. When at the pen, of which the cattle, with apparent conscl- ousness of thelr impending fato after the long trip to Chicago, showed fear, they |, tried hard to escape. With heads down, the steers that could would dart past the pontes and dash away, and the nearest cowboy would touch his spurs to the pony's side and point his and start on the chase, The wild Texas steers are swift-footed, and it takes a good rider to pass one and turn him, but Miss Bynum was equal to every r that invited her pony to run, although she was in immed- iato danger of being dragged off her mount by the horns of some steer strik- “|ing her riding habit, sho was ablo to manage her skirts as well as_her pony, and when the task was eneed she con- templated the fores of horns in the cattle pen with sparkling eyes and rosy cheeks That night when the cowboys we drinking their black coffec and eating th rked buffalo meat, they agreed to present Miss Bynum with some token of not often that Sullivan exhibits himself, | their appreciation of her assistance and a though when he does he makes up for | few days ago there came to the Bank cf lost time, Colorado a massive gold ring inscribed, “fo Miss Bynum from the Tex " Qol Dunn presented the shining ci rold to his niece, and said that he hoped that it would signify an engage- ment of her services at the annual round up on the “ never enjoyed _anything so much in my life,” said miss Bynum to the writer, “and, would you believe it?

The following is the result thus verl- fied: The whole number of votes given for president on the four electoral tickets was 10,036,067, of which Grover Cleve- and recelved 4,842,202; James Blaine, 4,810,219; Benjamin K. Butler, 234,848; and John P. St. John, 148,698, 'To this aggregate there is to be added 2,202 soattoring and defective votes. In place, therefore, of the 60,000 to 124,000 plurality which has been com- puted in various quarters for Grover Cleveland, it will be seen that his actual plurality is but 32,073, while In the en- tire country he 18 in a minorlty of 353,- 736, Of the votes given for Cleveland, 1,- 012,820 came from the ‘‘secession states” and 3,820,472 from the remalning twenty-elght. The solid south gave Cleveland 1,716,232 votes. With such a disproportion of votesin those states, tho question, though useless, 1s protty sure to be brought up, whether those states have not at present more than their just share ef influence in the electoral colleges and house of representatives. Small as was their vote for Cleveland, that for Blaine was still smaller, showing that a very large proportion of the legal voters in those states absented themselves from the polls, The Globe indicates the actual number and computes the percedtage of the voters that thus refrained from voting: In Kentucky the percentage was 33; in Virginia it was, 37; in Texas, 38; in Arkaneas, 42; in Alabama, 47; in Lou- islans, 55; in Mississlppl, 56; in South Carolina, 62; and in Georgla, 66. This oxtensive absenteeism certainly gives some color to the charge that a large pro- portion of the voters are kept away from the polls by intimidation, The bragging of the independents [mugwumps] that they saved the election of Cleveland Is absurd and unwarranted. The defectlon of the stalwarts in New York alone changed the political com- plexion of affairs and converted into a democratic victory what had been re- garded as inevitable demooratic defeat. The private secretary of President Arthur is said to have predicted before the election that 35 000 republican votes would be turned from Blaine to Cleve- land in the state; but undoubtedly the number 80 voting far in excess of this es- timate. Yet this revolt of the stalwarts geve the state to the democrate by ouly an {nsignificant plaarality. The breach thus occasfoned in the re- publican ranks is already substantlally heeled. The discret bearing of the stal- warts during the canvass has rendered their return to their old allegiance easy. If no renewed bitterness is caused by the election of the new senator they will be prepared to do battle next November to elect a republican governor. This would glve that party the key of the situation for 1888, The restoration of New York to her former position at the head of the repub- lican column would threaten not only the ascendency but the very existence of the democratic party as at present con- ‘?‘Pnul, Minneapolls and OMAHA RAILWAY. ‘Tho new extension of 4his line from Wakefleld up 0 h BEAUTIFUL VALLEY of the GAN through Concord and Colerldge TO EARTING TOIN, Reaches tho best portlon of the State, _Special cursion rates for land seckers over this line Wayno, Norfolk and Hartiogton, and via Blalr fo principal polzts on the SIOUX OITY & PACIFIO RAILROAD Trains ovor tht C., 8t.
