1T MAY DO GOOD.

A very interesting International con-
gress will be held in Berlin from May
oath to May 9th Of this year. AS the
men who are engaged in this are en-
tirely scientific it may lead to distinct
results. and anyway there will be a
mass of information brought forward
which will be of great use to physicians
all over the world. The object of the
congress is to aid in the suppression Of
tuberculosis.
In a circular addressed to the vari-
Gus governments the promoters of the
congress say:
THE object of the congress will be
to facilitate efforts for the prevention
and cure of tuberculosis, to lead said
efforts into the right channel by dis
cussion of their proper scientific basis
and to bring about the greatest har~
mony possible as regards the most suit
able measures. The subjects to be dis
cussed comprise: Propagation, aetio-
logy. prophylaXis, therapeutics and the
management of hospitals. The discus
sion will be in the German language,
although, by permission of the presi-
dent, another language may be used.
"Inasmuch as the efforts to stamp
out tuberculosis as an endemic disease
is now being made in almost all couu-
tries, as it is in Germany, it is to be
presumed that foreign countries gen
orally will be interested in the work
of congress"
This congress is especially interest
ing to us here, as our death rate from
consumption is very large. We not
only have to deal with consumptivee
belonging to our own territory, but we
also have to deal with a very large
number which come from abroad. There
| is therefore considerable attention paid
to the matter here, and the Board OF
Health is considering a proper location
for hospital entirely for the benefit
of consumptive patients.
Moreover the knowledge upon tuber-
culosis is in a much more advanced
stage than the knowledge of such
disease as leprOsy. The results of the
worlds congress upon leprosy are yet
to be found. 1t cost this government
when it was Independent, a smart sum
to have a representative there. We are
in different position now, and any
representative we have goes from the
city of Washington. But such con-
crosses are well reported, and all that
is to be got out of papers and discus
sions can be read here after it has been
published.
1t is now pretty well established that
consumption, if not durable in all cas-
es, is so in many, if proper treatment
is resorted to. Once it can be check
ed in the individual, it can be checked
in the mass, and it is quite a POSSIBLE
ity that after has been fought away.
it will become one of the rarest, as it
is now one of the commonest, diseases
that flesh is heir to.

the license of the press, and straight
way, with anything but a good grace,
does what he ought TO have done long
ago.
With regard to the adulteration mat
ter the Board may be expected to COM
mence a campaign soon after the new
food commissioner arrives. That in
dealing with cases of adulteration great
care and circumspection should be ta-
ken, lest any one should be unjustly
aspersed is true. But it also is true
that there is a great deal of adultera-
ton which needs exposure.
The fact is that the Board of Health
is an organization with large powers
These powers are so large that the
very members seem to be afraid of
must be certain and that is that un-
less it is active and self assertive it de-
generates into an old woman's talking
club, and a patronage machine. There
are good records in by gone Years
There should be a good one made now
There is much for the Boarl to do,
and it should do it with strength and
energy and with utter disregard to So
cial or monetary prestige ana position.
There are individual members who are
energetic enough and ready enough
but what the public wants Is not the is
olated opinion of one man, but the unit e
ed action of the entire Board.

SAUCE FOR THE GANDER.

Some agreement should be come to
between the public works department
and the Board of Health. There has
been much criticism of the Board as
TO the condition of the slums of the
town, and a good deal of the criticism
is deserved, but the whole blame does
not lie with the Board, at least so says
one of it's most influential members.
The theory is that the Board of
Health should certify that when a
place is to be occupied as a dwelling
place it is in good sanitary condition,
and that no permit to build should be
issued by the public works department
before the Board of Health was fully
satisfied AS a fact, says the member
referred to, the officer of the Board of
Health complains that permits to build
are issued by the public works depart
ment without reference to the Board,
and that in consequence a number OF
houses have lately been put up under
the worst of sanitary conditions. This
is the story as told The Star by mem
Der of the Board. 1t is a condition Of
affairs that should be put a stop to.
But though here the authority of the
board is set at naught, this is not SOL
itary case. The house owners give the
Board endless trouble. From the same
source The Star learns that the own
ers do not assist the Board and prac-
tically refuse to make the improve
ments which the Board of Health ag-
ents require. This is of course wrong
but one fails to see why the Board
does not use it's powers and force these
recalcitrant land owners to do theiI
duty.
The powers of the Board are
ample; why does not the Board use
those powers. 1t matters not who
the owner of the property may be, he
should be forced to do his duty. There
is no one so powerful that he can defy
quarantine regulations, there can he
no one so powerful that he can defy
any of the regulations of the Board.
Indeed there is no reason why the
Board should even go to law in the
matter. If the Board would have a list
prepared, stating what the condition Of
the premises complained of is and the
fact that the landlord would do nothing
towards cleaning the premises, and
have that list read at the meeting in
open session, when reporters We're pres
ent, 1t is only very stubborn individ-
uals that would risk the exposure, and
the bulk of the recalcitrants would be
tumbling over one another to get things

There is complaint about watering
the streets. In the first place it should
be done between four and five in the
morning, instead of between seven and
eight. Government work seems al
ways necessary to be done during the
strictly business hours. We used to
have the odorless eXcavatOr at work
on Fort street about the lunch hour at
one time. There is no earthly reason
why street sweeping and street water
ing should not be over by seven i'm the
morning, instead of beginning at that
hour. In the second place the streets
should be sprinkled and not flooded. A
vast deal more water is put on the
streets than is required to lay the dust
The complaints come from pedestrians
and Wheelmen whose business takes
them into town at an early hour in The
morning. The pedestrians get their
shoes muddied, and the wheelmen COM
plain that the roads are so sWshed
down with water that it is dangerous
to ride a wheel over them. Whoever
has direction over the water carts ard
sweepers will have the thanks of the
hard working and hard worked if This
request is attended to-
