A DIsGRACEFUL DELAY.

CURED by the health department in
stamping out the recent appearance of
smallpox in the city which is almost
criminal.
Every one recognizes the importance
of protecting the public from the spread
OF peslilence. When few imported
cases of smallpox were discovered in
the city few weeks ago. the health de-
partment took vigorous measures to
care for the afflicted in manner to
prevent the spread of the disease. Iu
this work DR.. Hoyt and his assistants
were eminently successful.
There was no opportunity for delay
and expenditures had to be incurred in
stantly. Nurses were employed and
material and provisions purchased.
Though these bills were incurred nine
ty days ago the city council declines
them and people who aided in the great
emergency are kept out of their money.
The next time the city has small
poX visitation it may be difficult to Sc.
cure prompt aid for the work of care
and repression.
The bills for property destroyed by
the health department. in stamping out
the disease may require time for investi-
CATION, but those for labor and supplies
should have been met at once. The
delay is a gross dereiiction of duty.
