A GOOD SUGGESTION.
Mayor Hume Makes One to the State
Board of Health.

Board of Health
The following letter sent by Dr. A. M.
Hume, of this CITY, to the state board of
health, Immediately after the meeting
OF municipal officers in Grand Rapids
last month and since then made public
by the board, contains suggestion
well worthy of serious consideration by
Michigan taxpayers. The letter is
especially apropos just now in view of
the sanitary convention to be held in
Grand Rapids next week where this
same question is sure to be brought up.
Mayor Hume has already received no
small amount of commentator for the
position he has taken in the matter:
Owosso, Mich, Sept. 80, 1899.
DR.. Henry B. Baker, Lansing, Mich:
Dear Doctor attended the meet
ing of the Michigan Municipal League,
at Grand Rapids this week and 1 want
you to know that the sessions were
very interesting and instructive. In
discussing the excellent paper of DR..
King Of Manistee upon "The relation
of the city council to the board Of
health" took occasion to urge upon
the municipalities represented the.
value of giving to the state board of
health control or at least approval of
all municipal water and sewer systems
that may hereafter be installed.
I think that your board should have
first-class, competent, sanitary engi-
neering department, and that with i.
such, no city should be allowed to in
stall water or sewerage system until
first approved by your board. Not
considering even the life-saving feat
ures of such a measure, I believe that
it would save to the cities thousands
Of dollars now expended for faulty
sewer systems, poor water supplies
and all such blunders which are blum
ders simply because of incompetent
engineering at the beginning. The
smaller cities and towns suffer most
perhaps from incompetent usually
incompetent because cheap engineer
ing in construction of sewerage and
water systems, but when l notice
Grand Rapids water 1 am forced to
believe that it is not only the small
cities of our state who have blundered.
l also called attention to the coming
sanitary convention at Grand Rapids
and urged the necessity for more in.
terest in sanitary improvement by
municipal management. Perhaps I
am advocating something which your
board does not wish to assume, but 1
think you should assume it. If 1 am
wrong call me down, but you can't
"call me off," At least two members
of our board of health will go to Gran1
Rapids and they have the idea of state
control of municipal engineering as I
have suggested herein. Why would it
not be good place to set the ball
rolling, and see if such measures could.
not be hadY Should be pleased to.
hear from you regarding this matter.
Sincerely yours,
ARTHUR M. HUME.

DR.. Baker wrote to DR.. Hume that
he did not think the state board of

of its powers and duties. On the

In that case it would be necessary
to have an expert engineer. A great

sentiments as regards the crowded
condition of the primary depart ment

Does our school board think that
it is fair for man who has property

when people who live in tents and are

What changes time hath wrought and
how few OF the sons of this beloved
country rally around the gold stand
ard, how they condescend to follow
the gilded galaxy of pretended
saviors OF this glorious haven OF JUS

the world since creations morn first

DREYFUS PARDONED.

Captain Dreyfus, recently con-
victed by the French court martial,
was pardoned by President Loubet
last Wednesday, and is now with his
family at Carpenteras, where he will
remain a short time and then 90 to a
place far in the country to rest and
regain his health.
This act of the president will meet
with the approval of all sane people
throughout the world. Had not this
pardon been granted, the old French
republic would soon have been at the
shrine of the bar Of universal justice
begging for pardon. The world
stood waiting, very impatiently in
deed, for French humanitarianism to
assert itself and right, in measure,
the great wrong it had done the
captain by placing the brand Of a
traitor upon him. 1t will be long
time ere the stain placed upon that
nations name by the dishonest mill
tary fossils shall have passed away,
and this crumb of delayed justice will
not suffice to insure renewal of good
will toward France from other nations
in time to make the worlds fair n
success. France has incurred the
aispleasure of thinking, fair minded
people everywhere, and she cannot
i've the stigma down before 800.
