APPARENTLY Secretary Curtin, Of the
Board of Health, although public official
and paid for his services from the borough
treasury, is Of the opinion that he is a
bigger man than Grant" Either that, OF
be is acting under instructions from the
Board of Health If the latter the sooner
the public knows it the better. 1t is Gus
tomary for the reporters Of the various
papers of town TO cali at the Secretary
office and get the health reports for publica
ton This is information that the readers OF
the HERALD are entitled to, but when ou
representative called at Secretary Curtiut
Office on Saturday, and in a gentlemanly
manner requested that official to furnish
him with the health reports the secre
tary informed the reporter that the HERALD
would receive no information from him iu
the future that the paper criticised the
Board Of Health, and therefore he would not
accommodate them, and didn't care how
soon the paper knew it. So far as our
criticism of the Board of Health is concerned,
chat body being composed of public officials
are subject tocritcism within proper bounds
Tho members of the Board, unlike
the Sec emry, are liberal minded aud
realize that their actions will not always
meet with popular approval that, being
human, They are liable to make mistakes.
Besides the Imiuon assumed by the HER
AID has met with much favor, excepting, OF
course, from the Secretary of the Board. Th,
fact of the matter is, the HERALD's criticism
was confined to the Board itself, aud no men
tiou was made of the Secretary, for the very
good reason that he is merely "a servant not
withstaudug Mr.. Curtins estimation cf the
Secretary assumed importance. Because Of
this egotistic position of the Secretary Of the
Board Of Health, the readers Of the HERALD,
who contribute to bis salary, are deprived Of
information which is theirs by right. Mr.
Curtin's predecessor althoughduring his term
the Board was criticised, was ever ready and
willing to furnish the public information, and
he performed the duties with as much
ability at less salary. The Board, in justice
10 itself, should investigate its Secretary.

Little WIN be Accomplished by Ma
ttonoI I,eoisintors This week.

tionaI Legislators This week.
washington, April 8. - The bank
ruptcy bill will be given first place In
the senate program this week, but It
will give way TO the appropriation bills
after tomorrow If the committee on APP
propriations reports them then, as Is
expected, and urges consideration. The
appropriation bills will excite more
or less debate when taken up, but they
are scheduled to pass with COM
paratvely few changes. There has
been an effort on the part Of some
members of the house to impress the
senate with the Importance of passing
these bills as sent over from the house
without any change whatever. This
suggestion is resented, especially by the
appropriations committee, which is de-
ternined to make some changes, If
only for the purpose of demonstrating
the senate's Independence of the house.
The outlook Is that the week will not
be busy one, and that the daily ses-
sions will be short Many senators
will be absent The finance committee
will press forward its investigation of
the Dingley tariff bill, and the various
parties will continue their efforts to
reach an understanding on the organi-
zation Of the senate committees Some
attention may be given 20 the arbitra-
ton treaty in executive session, but
there will not be any effort to get a
vote upon it during the week
The house in pursuance of the wait
ing policy mapped out by the leaders,
/ adjourned Saturday until Wednesday,,
and on that day will Immediately ad-
! journ for three days, the constitutional

ONLY three American citizens appeal t.
- e-Cuited-~-statcs Government for release
from Cuban prisons. This is in marked
contrast with the conditions which existed
under the Cleveland administration. During
the closing months of that administration,
although American citizens were ARE ted
and imprisoned in large numbers, tine re-
leases averaged no more than about one a
month, and they were men arrested on the
most triAiug charges, three of these being
simply charged with "voodooism." Simul-
taneously with the incoming of the new
administration whose views had been
clearly outlined by Secretary Sherman's
speeches in the Senate and President Nc
Kinleys inaugural, the prison doors in
Cuba were thrown open, and as a result,
to-day but three Americans remain in
prison in Cuba asking for Intervention by
the United States.

IN view Of the discussion Of the garbage

ably inclined to a crematory as the best and
only proper way of disposing Of this vexed
question President -palding, Of the Board
Of Health, it viii be remembered, has time
and again brought to the attention of the
borough authorities the advisability Of erect
ing a cyematory i'm town In his annual re-
port, a year OF so ago, DR.. Spalding dwelt at
considerable length upon the subject, showing
conclusively that the only safe remedy for
the present evil is the erection and operation
Of a garbage crematory, where all germs Of
disease emauating from decayed matter can
s-destroyed To consume by fire all the
accumulation of the winter months not only
destroys the disease breeding filth, but would
settle permanently the question Of dumping
ground Then, again, the mere removal OF
garbage from one neighbOrhood to another
under the present system, only establishes a
central point for the dissemination Of poison
