ion they are worse than useless and

themselves a breeding ground for fever
germs A proper system OF hltratlOn
at the reservoir would quickly demon
strate the cause of our present trouble
with fever. The city of London draws
its water supply from the Thames, ad-
mittedly the dirtest river in the world.
The water is filtered through sand,
and yet no epidemic ever secures hold
upon London. although every year dis
eases such as plague, cholera, smallpox,
etc. are reported. With regard to the
sewer system, the present plan is a
good one so far as it goes, but | am
of the opinion that it does not take in
sufficient area. The outside districts
should at once be connected, else we
shall have trouble there. These dis
tricts are rapidly filling up and with

embrace many considerations How
long should the ground so recently
covered with old and reeking shacks
he exposed to the sun and air for dis
infection? What regulations as to air
space beneath the buildings and re-
strictions as to the number of persons
who may occupy one apartment are
necessary? In what way may the dis
trict be best opened that sunlight may
get in and that there may be free ac-
cess to all parts of it at all times by
the health inspector and the wOrkmen
who have to remove the garbage from
the houses? 1t may be put as posi-
tive requisite that especially in this
climate there must be a free Circula-
tion of air. There should be such
building regulations as would allow
only such buildings to be erected as
conform to the most approved rules of
sanitation. In most cities there is a
building inspector who combines the
offices of fire and health officer, and
such an official would be empowered to
stop any work which was progressing
along other than approved lines. 1t
has been found necessa in Mainland
cities where there is gathered a large
Oriental population to establish such
restrictions as will prevent the crowd
ing of sleeping apartments This is
done by prescribing that there must be
a minimum of cubic feet of air for each
dweller in an apartment, and while
this may work apparent hardship,
viewed from the old conditions, its eff
feet has been excellent.
MI
The Board of Health must meet the
crisis bravely and firmly. A week ago
only. seeing that infection lurked in a
block which had furnished two cases
of plague, the Board ordered the
cleansing by fire. and once the element
was called into play there has been no
drawing back, but wherever the plague
sets its foot the buildings We're burned.
In no other way could the problem
have been solved so satisfactorily. BY
no other act could the Board of Health
have so completely shown itself de-
serving of the confidence of the people
it now holds, and from such vigor on
The part of the health guardians must
come better conditions for the entire
community.

in regard to an ample supply Of water

of the city 1t is necessary that more

We are putting in a system of water
closets throughout the city area, but
are not providing water for their prop
er flushing, and unless We are provided
with an adequate supply of either fresh
or salt water for this purpose our con
dition will be worse than 1t is at pres

OF opinion, II has assumed most ma

utterly stamped out History does not
tell us where IL has been effectually

or four months to attain It's maximum
force
From my experience in Chinatown,
T. is filthy and a positive danger and
menace to the health Of the communi-
ty as long as It stands 1t is well able
to breed any disease, and ! believe the
only way to meet the trouble Is to
burn the whole thing down, brick and
any other houses. Burn it all down
Saturate the soil with kerosene and
burn that for few days. Do not allow
any building to be put UP within, say,
one or two years. Fill up the cesspools
with lime and earth and give nature a
chance. Then provide proper sewers. l
notice another Chinese shack going up
on King street near Alapai street. The
floor is level with the road. We shall
have more of this sort of building be-
legal questions; we are here to devise
ways and means to save the city from
the scourge of bubonic plague"
The Chairman: II think the build
ings on King street disgrace to the
city. The need of man to superin-
tend the sanitary arrangements of ev-
cry new building is apparent on all
sides"
Dr. Raymond: II move that COM
mittee be appointed to confer with the
Board of Health on the matter of pro-
viding laws and health regulations and
submit their report to the meeting OF
the association next week"
Dr. Myers: 81 second the notion
Upon being put to the meeting, the
motion was declared carried and the
chairman announced that he would APP
point the committee later.
The meeting then adjourned, on mo-

ky for the use of the hall, to meet next
Saturday evening at o'clock.

Various Points Considered.

DR.. Myers: 81 second the motion"
Upon being put to the meeting, the
motion was declared carried and the
chairman announced that he would APP
point the committee later.
DR.. Mori: Il would suggest that a
special hospital be provided for the
more satisfactory diagnoses of fever
patients. At present it is difficult to
make proper examination of suspects,
often lying in dark, close rooms, and
the abnormal number of pneumonia
and typhoid cases prompts more close
diagnosis than can be done under eX-
listing circumstances"
Dr. Raymond: IL would like to men
tion the question of the necessity of
urging upon the proper authorities
modification of the laws relating to
buildings from sanitary point of
view. This matter requires early at
tention. as the Chinese will be obliged
to build new quarters and 1t is not to
be expected that the plans proposed
will meet with the approval of the ma
jority. The Chinese will scatter, and
If the building laws are modified the
same result will be attained, no mat
ter where they may build, provided
they are obliged to conform to the
rules of sanitation"
DR.. Alvarez: Il would urge for the
fftieth time the establishment in the
city of proper disinfecting plant In
England and, | think, Germany the
reason that quarantine has been dis
continued is because owing to the eX-
cellent sanitary laws and the manner
in which they are applied there Is no
necessity for them. In every city of
Importance you will find disinfecting
plant, which, whenever a case of con-
tagious or infectious disease Is report
ed, is Immediately wheeled to the
house in which the case occurs and the
whole place, together with its contents.
subjected to a thorough fumigation. In
cases of consumption this plant would
also be called into use. | know of
house in the city today in which two
persons died of recent date through the
fact that the place was not fumigated
after the death of consumptive, ana
! think II high time the plant was
forthcoming, in view of its necessity.
"The question in regard to santa
ton is, what Is the prevailing disease
just now. During the last three
months typhoid and pneumonia have
made great inroads among the citizens
and my opinion is that pneumonia is
the prevailing sickness. ! would sug-
gest that the physicians report at our
next meeting their experiences in this
regard, 1t is possible that we shall
have to face a typhoid epidemic in the
near future. With regard to the plague
trouble, ] am of opinion that the To-
cality at Kakaako in which the deten-
ton camps have been erected are quite
unsuited to the purpose owing to It's
low, swampy situation, and believe an
outbreak there would be found exceed
ingly hard to deal with"

The Clark howl about the cooper

hour day. Both are for political pur-
poses and neither of them have any color
of honesty or sincerity The sincerity of
Clark's regard for the welfare of his
miners will be demonstrated when he
grants an eight hour day on the Butte
scale of wages to his workmen in Jerome,
and his anti trust wall will be esteemed
purely for the purpose of "vindication'
so long as he has independent control of
such huge quantity of copper ore as he
claims at Jerome. Clark has assumed
the role of political mountebank and
he hopes to succeed in dipping the miners
of Butte into helping him pull his politi-
cal chcstnuts out of the fire. From all
appearances the day is not far distant
when every business man in Butte will
heartily curse the Clark eight hour day.

everything to get the proposition under

FORESTRY ASSOCIATION

Two More Decades VIII Exhaust Our
Primitive Forests.
The American Association for the ad-
vancement of science, which iscomposed
of 16 affiliated societies, opened it's 49th
annual meeting June Is in Havemeyer
hall, Columbia university. Two of the affili
ated organizations the American Chem
ical society and the American Forestry
association-ar at the same time hold
ing their annual sessions here. Other
affiliated societies convened June 25
and the last of the society meetings was
that of the Society for the Promotion of
Engineering Education, on the End of
July.
The general session was called to order
by the retiring president, G. K. Gilbert
of Washington, who introduced to the
delegates their president elect, Professor
r. S. Woodward, who made brief ad-
dress.
In his address to the members of the
Forestry association Secretary Wilson
said in part
I'VE have not given sufficient atten-
ton to the growing things in field and
the field by the forest. Heavy export
atoms of grain and lumber are regarded
by observers as the best evidence of ma
tional prosperity, while closer inquiry
will discover soil exhaustion and the loss
of ability to retain moisture on hill and
plain.
"As enlightenment among men ad-
vances with the centuries we fell trees
regardless of the consequences Our
government policy of living the land to
the people has facilitated this warfare
on the trees. 1t seems pity to us now
that reserves were not made by the gov
eminent from sea to sea, especially on
high ATTITUDES where rivers rise, or such
shallow soils that cannot endure the sun,
on broken lands that forbid the pillow,
and the like; but reflection excuses us
from wondering. 1t is nearly impossible
now to save tree northwardly, south
wardly and westwardly. The axeman
will soon hew through the forest. Two
decades or less will exhaust our print
tive forest of building woods.
THE worlds history admonishes us to
preserve forests where we have them and
plant them where there are none. Their
is useful and engrossing field here for
the student and gracious work for the
lover of his kind.
The educated forester has work to do
in his speciality that will be helpful to
the people; the soil physicist has work
to do that will be helpful to the pro
ducers; the educators have work to do,
too long neglected, and in this connection
we all rejoice at the Pinchot endowment
of IA school of forestry at Yale that will
give us aXeman in future who will chop
with discretion and plant with intelli-
gence."

Great Poem by a ''NIiMOr'' Poet.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
We note that they are writing down
William Ernest Henley as lone of the
minor poets" Perhaps he is; but never
theless he wrote that strong poem, 1.-The
Soul Captain" containing these famous
stanZas:
Out Of the Night that covers me,
Black rs the pit, from pole to pole,
thank whatever gods may be
For my uncOnquerablc soul!
In the strong stress of circumstance
have not WINGED nor cried aloud;
Under the bludgeonings of Chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed!
Beyond this vale Of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade:
And yet the menace IF the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid!
1t matters not how straight the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll
l am the master Of my fate
am the captain of my soul!
There is strength, grandeur and the
nobility of bravest manhood in that brief
poem.
