Is YELLOW FEVER TO COME,

II the almanac IS reliable we are sure
20 have summer, though somewhat tardy
in its coming. With summer we are also
sure to have the conditions favorable to
the development of nialarial diseases.
And among these, shall we invite the yell
low fever to come? This is a question
that our city authorities should be con-
sidering in due time.
We do not discover that our city is in
any worse hygienic condition at present
than is usual at this season Of the year.
But there is no year when, at this season,
attention to this matter is not strongly
demanded; and the present year pecu.
liarly so. Our citizens can not fail to
remember the melancholy tidings that,
only six months ago, came daily to their
homes, telling of other homes in the
South which were desolated by the de-
stroyer that did not even spare the cradle
in its ravages. They can not have for
gotten that whole cities were laid waste,
and that the hand of the nation had to
be stretched forth in charity to feed the
living and to bury the dead.
That we are to be exposed to recur-
renee of that pestlence that so desolated
some of our sister cities last summer,
seems undeniable Though a sharp win
ter has interviewed to freeze the germs of
that malarial poison from which the yel-
low fever proceeds, there are already in
dieations that those poisonous germs were
not wholly extinguished. The recent oc-
curyence of yellow fever eases on board a
United States vessel in Boston harbor,
which had come from the South, is a
warning that prudent people should not
disregard, as well as proof of the con-

adjustment will be made at the meeting OF

have the organization in their own hands,
still they are two votes in the minority in
