the action of their colleagues on the
board of health in standing up for their
rights and assuring them of the asso-

It is hardly probable that four reputable
physicians will be found who will step
into the places made vacant by the re-
movai of their colleagues. even If such a
thing can be done despite Councilman
Orders assertion that already five ply
sicians have signified their willingness to
take the positions if they should be de-
clared vacant
In this connection another little mat
ter has apparently been overlooked by
the councilmen who favor the removal
of the members of the board of health.
These gentlemen were not only appoint
ed by the mayor, but were elected by the
council. They were not confirmed. but
on motion of Councilman Toll, were reg
ularly elected, and as the term is for
four years they cannot be removed ex-
