PUBLIC SAFETY

When the city council meets this even
ing it should appoint special committee
to consider what precautions are needed
against fires as we'll as what measures
should be taken to subdue fires and keep
them from spreading. The committee,
which might include the members of the
present one on the fire department,
should ask prominent citizens to give
their opinions on the subject. The com
mittee should likewise learn what has
been done in other towns under like cir
cumstances. In this way much practical
information would be elected on which
the council could act, clearly and intelli-
gently. AS the city is incorporated it is
in n nosition to act promptly and effec.
lively in this matter. The recent de-
struction of property worth about $4,000
should spur our people to adopt at once
additional measures for the public safety.
Great Falls tribune., 1888-12-15

DR.. Austin Flint, who holds high rank
in the medical world, makes remarkable
statement in the Forum. He says: "The
science and practice of medicine and sur
gerry are undergoing revolution Of such
magnitude and importance that its limits
can be hardly be conceived. Looking
into the future, in the light Of recent dis
coveries, it does not seem impossible that
a time may come when the cause of
every infectious disease will be known;
when all such diseases will be prevent
able and durable; when protection can be
afforded against oil diseases, such as
scarlet fever, measles, yellow fever,
whooping cough, ETC., in which one at
tack secures immunity from subsequent
contagion; when, in short, no constitu-
tional disease will be incurable, and such
scourges as epidemics will be unknown"
DR.. Flint goes further, for he says:
"These, indeed, may be but part Of what
will follow discoveries in bacteriology.
The higher the plane of actual knowl-
edge, the more extended is the horizon.
What has been accomplished within the
past ten years, as regards knowledge of
the causes, prevention, and treatment Of
disease, far transcends what would have
been regarded, u quarter of a cAntnry ago
as the widest and most impossible spec
ulation." There is clearly a good time
coming after all. t.
