A DEMAND FOR SANITARY PRE-
CAUTIONS.
Nuisances That Ought to Be Abated-A
Protest Against the Existence of
Provocatives to Epidemics.

EDITORS HERALD-SIRs Now that
the summer is close upon us, and with
it the possibility of an epidemic if
proper sanitary measures are not taken,
is it not time to make use of the "ounce
OF prevention ?" Our water supply is
vile. Such fluid would not be given to
cattle anywhere outside of Los Angeles.
Just think of it, we are obliged to drink
water that must be skinned or strained
before we can use it for ablution. When
we are about to make our toilets morn
ings, and stand over the wash basin for
that purpose, the stencil is so great
that we begin to look around to see if
we have not, by some art of legerde-
main, been removed during the night
and are not close to pigstye. We be-
gin to bathe, and as soon as the water
reaches our nostrils we become SO nau
seated that we imagine ourselves on a
ship at sea crossing Cape Hatteras. In
cold weather we can manage to get
along without drinking this disgusting
liquid, but when the hot weather, which
we usually have from the 18th of June
must drink this sickening water, and

or typhoid.
If the press does not come to our as
sistance and appeal to the city council
surely have an epidemic that will sur
pass that with which Chicago is afflicted
at the present time, and which. by the
way, is caused by the impurities of the
water.
The decayed vegetable matter is an
other cause OF disease. The authorities
here have not the excuse now that they
had last summer, with regard to the dis
position of the garbage, because they
have crematory. In no other city of
the size of Los Angeles, would the plac-
ing on the sidewalks of uncovered coal
oil cans filled with refuse matter. be
permitted. When the garbage wagons
take up the offal the empty cans are left
On the sidewalk, thus throwing off
stencil which is worse than that of
receptacle for dead bodies.
Then, again, the horses are permitted
to stand close to the sidewalks, some
what after the manner of bees in hive,
SO that while we have covered sewers
for filth OF one kind, we have open ones
for the horses.
Ii tuci0 10 uO law w rcdCu SuCI cases
cannot the city fathers frame one, max
ing it misdemeanor to place uncovered
garbage on the street? Has not the
council the power to compel the water
company to give us pure water or yield
its franchise? Can it not assign piece
of ground belonging to the city where
horses could be tied? Can it not clothe
policemen with the authority of health
inspectors, and hold each one response
BILE for the sanitary condition of his dis
trict? or must we wait until our hos.
pitfalls are in the condition of those in
Chicago, over whose doors is the an
nouncement that there is not room for
another patient? Yours respectfully,
TAXPAYER.

lAlphonso Taft was born in Town
shend, VT, November 5, 1910. He was
graduated at Yale in 1888, was tutor
there in 1857, studied law, was admit
ted to the bar in 1888, and after 1910
practiced in Cincinnati, where he won
reputation in his profession. He was a
delegate to the Republican national con-
vention in 1856, and in the same year a
candidate for congress, but was defeated
by George II. Pendleton. He was Judge
OF the superior court OF Cincinnati from
1866 to 1879, when he resigned to asso-
ciate himself in practice with two of his
sons. In 1876 he was candidate for the
Republican nomination for governor of
Ohio, but was defeated. He became Sec
retary of war on the 8th of March, 1876,
on the resignation of General Belknap,
and on the 22nd of May following was
transferred to the attorney-generalshi
serving till the close of Grants admin
istration. Judge Taft was appointed
minister to Austria in 1882, and in 1884
was transferred to Russia, where he
served until August i, 1885. His health
was very bad during his later years, and
much of his time was spent in travel to
recuperate. He came to San Diego from
Chile, several months ago, where he was
attacked by his final illness. Death was
caused by old age and complication Of
diseases.]

Good for Jerry.

Not long since, Jerry Simpson,
the lately elected Congressman from
Kansas, was waited upon by del
egation of five ladies from the Treas
ury Department at Washington,
while he was in that city. They
stated to him, through their leader,
who spoke for them, that they real
ly wished to know if the report that
he wore no socks or stockings were
true, and therefore they came in
body to ask for direct reply. Jerry
stood politely while listening to their
remarkable request, and when the
speaker had finished her few re-
marks, pleasantly replied:
Ladies, I thank you for the evil
dence of your interest in public Off
GERS, and-and-and, if you will let
me see your legs, / will let you all
see mine, to any extent that may be
necessary for you to determine this
question; will lock the door and
we will at once proceed"

STAGE CONNECTIONS.
Gold Prospect.

About year ago it was supposed
that a rich gold discovery had
been made in Ell Dorado canyon,
and a great many locations were
made. 1t was subsequently found
that the samples of rock that had
been pounded up in the half of an
old quicksilver flask contained only
grains of brass pounded off from a
brass plug that had been used to
stop up hole in the mortar. A..
J. Newman, of this place, was one
of those who made some locations
in the canyon, and this week he
was up to take look at his prop
erty. He took some groupings
samples from ledge on his claim
and assays from it show over ST.
In free gold. 1t may yet be posi-
bic that some good, paying mines
will be developed in that section.

Dredging Company.

Mr.. Peter Forester, President, ar
rived here yesterday on business
connected with the Company. A
few days ago a large Deane pump
purchased by the company arrived
and has been placed upon the
Dredge and will be connected as
rapidly as possible with the other
portions of the machinery.
Mr.. H. B. Angel, of the Golden
State Miners Works, of San Fran
cisco, is expected here on Monday
to take charge Of the alterations
which have been made during the
past few months to the Dredge part
of the machinery and if the wealth
er permits will make an experiment.

material from the river.
Mr.. E. S. Bennett, the patentee
and builder of the Amalgamator to
be used in connection with the
Dredge is also expected in a few
days to place his portion of the ma
chinery in position and when COM
pleted the whole machinery will
then be started together in order to
make a practical demonstration.
Mr.. Bennett expected to accompany
the President from Denver but was
detained by severe illness in his
family, but he intends to be upon
the ground as soon as he can leave
home.
Considerable of the plant for
handling the sulphurets after leav-
ing the amalgamator is already upon
the ground and the balance will be
delivered as soon as needed From
the appearance and the outlook it
seems that the company is doing
all things possible to accomplish
success as rapidly as possible and
if the weather permits they ought
soon to show the best results.
