\ Word to the I1sDectors

Although it is quite lale in the
seasol, the News is glad to know
that the sanitary inspectors will, in
a few days. begin looking after the
condition of theprcmises Of the
citizens of the town. Some of the
alleys in the city are also in fear
full condition and need the atten-
ton of the health officers Just a
little worse than any other portion
of thcecity.
Besides locking after the prem-
1ises OF private individuals the
health officers should turn some of
their attention to the filth to be
found in the re.r of the stores.
Our southern climate makes
such diseases ms typhoid, hemor.
rhagic ard malarial fever highly
prol able unless the sanitary cons
dition of the town Is carefully
guarded.
We would urge the inspectors
20 do their duty, and do 1t fearless
~ ard thoroughly.
