The Canton Board Of Health got Engineer w.
s. Williams to investigate and report about cur
west creek and the three dams thereon, as we'll as
Myers Lake. He pronounces the dams in bad
state and calculated to produce malaria. He says
the Trump dam should be removed; and the
Water Works dam changed the channel cleared Of
timber and debris and reconstructed in better
place aud with a sluice, for cleaning out He
thinks the city cannot depend on Myers Lake for
its supply Of water, and hence the importance Of
putting the West creek In order.
Mr. Williams thinks the Union Dam should be
run off, the channel cleaned and straightened,
and another channel on each side dug, with
lateral channels and the dam, If to be continued,
rebuilt with a suice.

THE MAN THAT VENT TO PIKE.

A great inventor In his way
Drove fast to Pike the other day;
And once arrived upon the.grOund,
Soon had the voters standing roundl
To listen to this man of parts,
In language that could reach their hearts
Soon with wise and sanity air
etOId his taIe Of talSehOOd lIerel
That Welty, Just before he left,
Had, OF his vote, q youth bereft
Deceived an innocent young man,
Who should be Republican
OF course such tales should ever be
Told with an air OF purityi
And knaVish work ike thus is done,
Usually by the righteous one I
At times twould seem that lies prevail
Wnen men are caught by talsehoods tale
Not the Savior on the Mount
When Satan gave his fair account,
With lavish promises OF land
Were service shown at his command
Give me the man whose Il uthful pride
Satanic tales defy, deride;
VINO bcOrhs satanic service all
Regardless tho rewards should fall;
VINO worShips only at the shrine
Where Truths perennial beauties shine
This messeTge who went to Pike,
Need not incur ones hot dislike:
For men are very weak indeed
Who will, to such as he, give heed
Some pharisaic unCtious men,
Seem to be from the DEVILS deu;
Each Belknap and DeGollyer case
Regarding with pious face
Embracing Presidential fraud,
AS some nice men jeweled bawdl
Take sots aud schemers all the same
As worthy of eternal famel
As right, all knaVery that's done,
II fpro6I to their saints is run
AS pure and spotleSs all the crew
Thatgot De GOllyer plunder thro!
This great inuentOr in his way,
Drove fast to Pike the other day
