To the Editor of the Virginian- Pilot:
Now that the yellow fever scare is on,
and the city of Norfolk is using every
precaution and making every possible
EFFORT to protect its people against the
possible infection of the fever il is
plain 10 everyone interested in the vel
fare of the city that the thickly pOpu-
lated territory adjacent to our pres
ent boundary line should be within the
city limits and under the direct con-
troll of the Board of Health and sani-
tary officers. ! especially refer to the
Huntersvillc and Barboursvine section,
which is no doubt in very unsanitary
condition and Il menace 10 the public
health and right at our very doors. The
writer. of his own knowledge and OBJ
scrNation, can state that in n certain
section directly adjoining the city. there
Is no provision made by the county for
the removal of garbage. cutting OF
weeds and i'll fact no sanitary provision
for the protection Of the health of the
community. The weeds are allowed to
grow head high" die and decay on the
vacant lots and the garbage scattered
over the streets. The interests of the
city proper and this section are one
and the same. and these conditions
should not be allowed to exist. There
is only one remedy, viz: for tho city
10 take in this adjacent territory. and
the sooner this is done the better for
the public health and the people gen
orally. When this is done the TAXES
WE PAY can be applied 10 the i'm
provcment of OUR OWN property. in
stead of having the county spend it
elsewhere.
Respectfully.

A GALLANT FIGHT.

1t Is indeed a pleasure to the people
OF Wyoming to know they have a SEN
ator who can wage a successful fight
against such a power as Senator Frye
OF Maine. In the closing hours Of the
senate Mr.. Warren, in the face of the
great opposition and the solemn pro-
test Of the chairman Of the committee
having the matter in charge, forced the
Maine senator to agree to the recon-
mitment Of the river and harbor bill to
the conferrees, but the house refused to
accede and the reservoir amendment
therefore failed. The following brief
account given by the Associated Press
will be OF interest to all the people of
Wyoming:
The anxiety of the early night over
the fate Of the river and harbor bill
wa partly dispelled at $3.50 this morn
ing. "A determined effort had been
made from s O'Clock last night until
this morning, by several western SEN
ators, headed by Mr.. Warren, ~republi-
can OF Wyoming, to reconsider the con
ference report on the river and harbor
bill, because of the refusal OF the house
conferrees to consent that the senate
amendment making an appropriation
for the construction of reservoirs at the
headwaters of the Missouri river should
remain in the bill.
Mr.. Frye of Maine, in charge of the
conference committee, holding that
such action would defeat the measure,
and just as steadfastly he was sustained
by a majority of the senate.
Mr.. Warren occupied the floor in the
discussion of the reservoir proposition
for five hours, occasionally being re-
lieved from the strain OF speaking by
other senator's, who talked briefly on
the same subject. The situation had
every appearance of a determined eff
fort not only to defeat the river and
tharbor bill, but also to prevent the en-
actment of other great appropriation
measures.
Finally, at 2 o'clock, Senator Frye
consented to make one more effort to
induce the house conferrees to accept
the senate reservoir amendment. The
report was recommitted to the con-
ferrees and the senate went into execu-
tive session.
At $3.50 a. m, when the transaction
OF legislative business was resumed,
Mr.. Frye reported that the senate col
ferees had been unable to induce the
house conferees to reopen the agree
ment already made and the measure
must stand or fall according to the re-
port made.
Then Mr.. Warren, rather than i'm |
peril the interests of the government
and probably defeat some OF the appro-
priatton bills, he was willing to accept
the report as it stood, and in a graceful
speech gave up the fight which he had
made against heavy odds. Without an
other word Of debate the river and
harbor report was agreed to,

l am reminded of an incident ON one

place not long ago and in which n mar.
ried member of a family. to whom it is
not necessary to allude, was a party.
The husband and wife appeared at all
meals, flanked on either side by a large
dish of butter.
AS it was an English ship and butter
was not served at many Of the meals.
some who were neighbors were delight.
ed to see that the hors d'ouevre had at
last a place on the table. They helped
themselves beautifully at luncheon.
At dinner they were surprised to see

KILLED BY THE HOUSE.

Never send a boy to mill. The old
adage applies with added force to leg
islative matters. After all the hard
struggle made by our senator's in the
upper house of congress to secure the
appropriation of a sum sufficient to
start the work of building mountain
storage reservoirs, the legislation was
ueieated In the house because of the
INABILITY of our congressman to carry
II through that body. After ono of tbo
hardest lights in the history of the
senate and even against the will of the
chairman of the committee having the
matter IN charge, Senator Warren sue
ceeded in securing an amendment ia
phe river and harbor bill providing for
the appropriation of $50, 900 to begin
the work in Wyoming. The measure
tnen went to the house and was defeat.
ed, the house refusing to concur in the
senate amendment. If Congressman
osbone made an effort in the interest
OF the west, the fact has not been pub
ifshed in this state. He is a weaklipr
OF whom the people of Wyoming are
rtun to be rid. AS a representative
his efforts have all been of a negative
character.
AS the reservoir matter now stands
nothing can be done till the next ses-
sion of congress, and then. with Sen
ators Warren and Clark in the senate
and Congressman Mondell in the house.
something may be accomplished.
