CRIMINAL NEGLECT.

Waterbury's Board of Health Making No
 Preparatinns For An Outbreak of
 Cholera.
 During the absence of Health Officer Frost, Dr O'Hara, the town health off cer, will attend to all matters pertaining to tho board of health. Waterbury's board of health is composed of the mayor, Dr Frost, as health officer; Harry Moses, sanitary inspector, and E. l.. Frisble. There is a vacancy caused by the resignation of F. A. Spencer.
 The board, which at this time should be one of the most important in the city, if not the most important, does not receive proper attention. The health boards throughout the country are be- ing thoroughly organized and equipped and in many instances increased, yet the council look on with supreme in difference at the state of the local board. One underpaid sanitary in- spector is left to do all the work, in a city of upwards of 1000 people.
 We are within three hours ride of the metropolis which is already threatened with the dread scourge of cholera, and no appeal has been made to the people asking for the enforcement of sanitary measures. No action has been taken, that the people know of, outside the routine work of the board. Cities as far inland as Cincinnati and Pittsburg have es- tablished quarantine regulations as strict as martial law during the war, and baggage and passengers are fumi- gated before being allowed to enter. We are allowing emigrants to come among us without even cursory off cial glance.
 The council should take cognizance of this matter and put things in shape. A permanent inspector with a competent salary and the convenience to get over so large an area as the city of Water bury, should be placed on duty. There is no necessity for being alarmed, but it is nevertheless duty to be prepared. The rear of many buildings in the city hustling would be indulged in if more than one cellar was looked into. The present is the time for action in this matter.
