Board OF Mealth Humbuc.

Cincinnati Commercial Special
WASHINGTON, October 2.-From
what a be gathered from members
OF congress who occasionally visit the
city it is believed that one of the first
acts of the December session will be
to abolish the National board of
health. When the board was created
it was spoken of as an experiment.
and it has proved a very expensive
experiment and utterly useless. The
largest portion of the expenditures of
the board has been for salaries of a
lot of so-called inspectors, who have
$40 a day each and travelling expenses.
Numbers of these inspectors have
been kept travelling over the country.
the government paying the expense.
and it cannot be ascertained that the
whole of them have succeeded in
either preventing or curing a single
case of yellow fever. The only bene-
6ciaries of tens of thousands Of dollars
fooled away by the board are the off
cials, who have been drawing fat sala-
ries at the expense of the taxpayers.
