the Borough Of Emporium:-
GENTLEMEN:-I wish at this tim e.
to call your attention to the faox
that the contract of the Borough
with the Emporium Water Co,
expires this coming October, and
to suggest that it might be well to
insist, when making new contract
that the Water Co, furnish an
ample supply of water for flushing
the main sewer as often as is
necessary and that the decision Of
the Board of Health of Emporium,
be accepted at any and all times as
to the necessity Of such flushing.
and that the work be done, invari-
ably, under the supervision of the
Emporium Board of Health, or it's
representative.
mention the subject at this time
for you to familiarize yourselves
with the text of the present contract
which you will find in the hands Of.
your secretary.
Emporium has been, during the
past ten years, one of the moss
healthy towns in the state, there
having been no epidemics of any
Importance whatever during that
time.
The Board Of Health of En-
porium was orga nized in 1898, ous
main sewer was completed in 1S95
and it is no more than reasonable,
to attribute to these agencies a very
large share in the causation of this
immunity from disease. 1t is well
to remember, however, that connec--.
tons are being made to the sewer al
most daily and that the old plan Of
trusting to storms, high water, etc,
will not much longer avail.
Eternal vigilance is the price of&
great many things besides Liberty,
and in no branch Of Municipal
Government is it SO important to
act just little ahead CT time as in
that branch relating to the public
health. Ifhowever it should prove
impracticable or impossible for any
cause to procure sufficient water
from the Water Co.. then some sui
table arrangement should be made
to flush the sewer by turning water
from the creek through the sewer
at its head, at proper intervals.
The Emporium Water Company
during the fifteen years it has
furnished water to this borough
for fire purposes has had what may
be very aptly termed a "soft snap
and certainly think it no more
than fair that they should now be
called upon to furnish water sof
flushing sewers, sprinkling streets
and all other legitimate uses OF the
Borough. without extra compensa-
ton.
Faithfully yours,
+. o. BARDWELL,
Chief Burgess.

IT WILL be harder to hit the polygamists of
Utah, if there are any such, now then it was
while they were territory. The State govern
ment and State courts are controlled by the
Mormons. All Mormons never were polyga-
mists Those who were polygamists were un-
derstood to have given up polygamy before
Utah entered statehood in 1896. The renunci-
alton of that practice permanently was made
condition precedent to the erection of Utah
into State. The state-makers pledged them
selves to prevent polygamy afterward, and to
extripate it if it should arise in their State.
The country took the Mormons at their word.
If they have deceived the country-and many
persons on the ground say they have-the
proposition for constitutional amendment
will find MANY supporters.
