THE GARBAGE QUESTION.
Tho Mode of It's Disposal Agitating the
Health Ofhcers.

The matter of disposing of the filth
and garbage collected about the city is
now agtating the Board of Health.
Mr.. Patrick, of Detroit. came to the
city last summer and offered to put up
a furnace at his own expense and burn
all the garbage and night-soil under a
contract. He has renewed his PROPOSE
ton, and the matter will be taken
under consideration. Health Officer
Saunders is of the opinion that the city
should erect such a furnace and oper-
ate it. He says: II believe that the
matter of collecting and disposlng of
garbage should be paid for by special
tax. This would provide for the re-
moval of filth withouta direct outlay
of money. and every man would be
critical inspector of his own dooryard.
No person would hesitate to order
nuisance removed if ne knew that its
removal was provided for by a special
tax. and the city would thus be kept
cleaner and the health of the residents
would lie better guarded"

Mr.. Mcclure is at present agent for the r..
& A. A. R'y at OwossO, was member of
the democratic congressional committee fol
Shiawassee Co., and it is doubtful IL Chair
man HOyt had a more able lieutenant. As
practical railroad man Mcclure has the
advantage over some of his competitors fol-
the place, but whether he can work the
political wires with as much assiduity as the
kid glOved Gen. lines of Grand Rapids is
an open question. Another formidable
competitor for the place comes from the 4th
congressional district where all the influence
of Yaple concentrates. There have been no
definite promises given Shiawassee Co.
from the administration and the fact of
there being candidates for so many import
ant places from this county may lead Gov.
Winans to make other appointments because
of lack of concerted and concentrated de-
mand. Get together boys.
