A TIMELY SUGGESTION.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Please allow
me space in your paper for an
article addressed chiefly to the
officials of the town, concerning
a matter that will add considers
ably to the health of Our citi-
zens. In looking over the town
ordinances l find a very Import
ant law omitted, which l am
sure was an oversight On the
part of those who framed them.
It is this: A law should be
made to punish anyone who
throw such things in the canals
that will create a stencil, such
as dead cats, dogs, chickens, etc.
There are people who live On OF
near the canals that suffer from
such conduct. We hope our Of
fcers will frame an ordinance to
stop it.

As it stands the agreement has been indorsed by the great majority of Chicago and St. Louis roads. Two ar ticles in it, however, seem to some to be of questionable legitimacy, and are to be brought forward at an opportune time. One of these make it incumbent upon the chairman to cooperate with the state and interstate commerce commissions in se- curing the maintenance or legitimate rdeS. Another empowers him to declare a cessation of business relations with any outsider connecting road which persiats in demrralzing rates after 1t has been duly notified to maintain them. It is al tog6 ther likely tha. the agreement will be adopted as it stands.
 Fears were generally expressed today that there are several of the western roads which will refuse to become mem- bers of tn. reorganized Western Passenger association. They belond to what is known as the weak group" and it is in- timated that their, declination is partly due to their not wishing to tie their hands in ilhe matter of rates or ether devices by which traffic may be alttrad-ed to their Hines. The avowed reason for their re- expenses. In their case when business is extremely light some roads find the monthly rates for expense quite bur dsn.
 This, however, will not prevent the strong Hines from going into a compact on their own account. They will form an association without their weak breth- rem
