HEALTH OFFICER I
SAYS ONLY FEW
CASESOF FEVER
Doctors Only Report Nine
Cases for the Last
Three Months.
Fairmont is one of the most
healthful cities in the state ac
i-uruiug 10 a siaiemeni maae oy
Dr. J. A. Jamison, city health
officer today, notwithstanding the
discussion of the typhoid fever
caseB in the vidlnlty by leading'
doctors at the meeting of the!
Kiwanis Club luncheon yeBterday.1
To back up his statement Dr. I
Jamison produced the records of I
his office to show that only fivej
cases of typhoid fever were reported
during the month of July,',
three during the month of August}
and one up to today in this month.
Of the five cases reported during
July only three should be credited
to the city proper as one of the
cases was a person who camo
here with a funeral party from
Oklahoma and the fever developed
the day after the person arrived
in this city. Another case was
that of a child who had been
spending the summer on a farm
near the city and was brought into
town for treatment after the .
disease developed.
One of the ministers who came
here to attend the West Virginia
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, w"as stricken
with the disease the day after he
arrived in the city, but the health
officer says that the disease did '
not originate here as the minister
was not feeling well when he j
came to the city.
According to Dr. Jamison only j
seven cases of .fever that originated
in the city have been reported
to him since the first of July,
and, furthermore, Dr. Jamison
fey# .that he --is- ^pfldentthat .tha .
nhtmlplana rs f lha nlfv ara ronnrf- '
ing all the cases.
The health officer says he is at j
a loss to understand the small |
number of cases of fever as practically
all the wells and springs inspectcd
by the city are unfit for 1
use and that hts department has J
placarded any number of wells '
and springs showing that tho j1
water was unfit to use. Among!
the springs condemned was one|
that water was being bottled outj
of and sold to residents around'
the city. The health department.!
made the persons operating tho
delivery system of the infected
water - discontinue the sale of
the water in the city.
Other contagious diseases have
been on about the same level with
typhoid fever and according to
the health officer the city is enjoying
better health as a whole
than ever in the history of the
city.'

Agreements.
CHICAGO, Sept. 14 ?(By the
Associated Press)?Members of
the shopcrafts* policy committee
who yesterday approved peace
plans for ending the railway
strike through separate agreements
with individual. roads today
began separate agreement
negotiations under terms of the
agreement, instructions to various
System federation officials to
enter signatory negotiations and
arrange agreements with their
roads were sent out from union
headquarters by Bert M. Jewell,
chief strike leader anil head of
the railway employes' department
of the American Federation of
Labor.
Although the shop craft executive
council remained here with
Mr. Jewell, to direct the affairs
qf the railway shop unions in settling
the strike the policy committeemen
scattered to their respective
district soon after the
settlement plan waa adopted.
\ Railway systems counted among
those counted to sign the hgreement
immediately or soon were
said to number about fifty of the
202 class one roads V the country.
Some of the larger systems
? were counted among those willing
. to sign for immediate peace.
The mileage affected today was
I estimated at about 65.000 of the
. 260.000 miles in the United States.
The text of instructions to officials
of system federation would
? remain confidential, Mr. Jewell
\ said. He said also that union
, leaders would not make public at
this time a list of the roads which
1 were partfes' to the agttjSttTefrt Ttic
reason for retaining the list, he
said, waB because it will probably
be augmented by new signers as
the result of a continuous series
of conferences with roads not al3
ready in the agreement.
' Any lists made public would
3 have to com? from the railroads,''
{ Mr. Jewell said.
Effort* fa vorlfv Unfa
of roads accepting the settlement
drew denials from the Erie, Burlington,
Chicago Great Western
Southern Pacific, Illinois Central
and a large number of other
roads.
| The New York Central gtoup
[ was one of the largest generally
credited with planning to sign the
agreement.
Under the terms of the peace
plan shopmen are to return to

Complete Review of Wheeling
Session Made at Local
Club's Luncheon.
On Tuesday the executives of the
clubs in the twenty-fourth' district
of Rotary held their annual meeting
in the McLure Hotel In Wheel
ing. President Miller of the Fairmont
Rotary Club attended and at
today's weekly luncheon at the Y.
M. C. A. gave a talk on the features
of the Wheeling gathering.
Among other things President
Miller recalled to the minds ot local
Rotarians that Rotary Inter
national is now 17 years old. It is
made up of 1,250 clubs in twenty
six countries; is represented on
every continent and embraces t>
membership ot 83,000 men. The
one feature in relation fo Rotary
membership which might be considered
somewhat remarkable 1s
that during the period of the organization's
existence its membership
has not run well into the lmn
dreds of thousands. On the contrpry'Rotary
has been maintalneo
at a level assuring the proper classifications
and suitability of members
in accordance with the business
and social creed lupoh which
Rotary is built.
Plans to further the inter-city
cooperation of Rotary Clubs were
discussed at the Wheeling executive
meeting and steps toward
that end are contemplated for the
near future. Attendance at weekly
meetings was another topic of
importance and the heads of all
state Rotary Clubs appear to be
stressing the necessity for regular
attendance at the mid-week luncheons.
One's obligation to Rotary.
according to President Miller's
remarks, is founded first upor
meeting with other Rotarlaps
each week. That is the starting
place at which the good that a
man gains through Rotary and the
good he may do for his fellow men
through Rotary originates. So Rotarlans
are required to attend
their meetings regularly. .
v-president Mtllert Yep?rOf cthw
Wheeling session was so'complete
that there was no other business
of importance transacted today.
Reports of committee chairmen
were held over for reading at)
the next business meeting.
