Condition of the Alleys.

In Justice to Health Commissioner
G. C. Craig, Jr., it should be stated
that the condition of the alleys, as
with Aid. Elwcll's resolution in the
city council, is not due to negligence
on his part. He fully realizes the un-
desirable condition of the alleys from
personal observation and otherwise,
and has sought, SO THE ARGUS has
learned, to have the situation
relieved, but he has been greatly
handicapped through the failure of the
city administration to give the proper
advantages to this most important
department, especially at this time.
The health commissioner has had abso-
lutely no help since the gar bage wagons
were discontinued Nov. s, until last
Friday, when he gained the services
of one man and a cart. Although
there is a regularly constituted officer
for the duty of looking after the gen.
eral cleanly condition of the city, yet
the health department has been hand
icapped through the failure of the
administration to place him at it's
disposal. Aid. Elwell's remarks.
as The ARGUS understands, were
not aimed as an attack on the
health department, but were pur-
posed, and very properly, to call
the attention of the administrative
branch of the city government TO
such conditions as prevail and such
conditions as need remedying.

ON THE RESERVE FUND.

TonIEht's Entertainment.
Modern Woodmen officials at their
meeting last night at the head office
building INDUCED in a lively discus
sion of the reserve fund, a question
that has proved perplexing one to the
order, having been prominent feat
ure at the recent head camp at Kan
sas City. AS conducted now, the
society levies assessments only as
they are needed. For instance, in
1899 there will be but 10 assessments.
The ball was started rolling at last
nights session by c. E. Whalen, of
Madison, Wis. he argued in favor of
an assessment for each month dur
ing the year. Head Consul Northcott
expressed himself as strongly favor
ing the step rate-a rate increased with
age. the policy holder paying a rate
corresponding with the risk the So
ciety assumes. While there were
those of the delegates who supported
this idea. Others had different
plans, and wanted the question of
whethe' the order should esta blish a
reserve fund put to vote, but this
was avoided by admitting each dee
gate to present argument in support
of his views.
A paper on The Official Paper"
prepared by F. o. Van Calder, editor
of the Modern WoodmaD, the official
organ of the society, was read yester-
Cay afternoon by r. E. johnson, of
