Investigation of Typhoid Fever.


"The recommendation that provision be
made for the investigation of reported cases
of typhoid fever In connection with the en-
forcement of the act for the prevention OF
scarlet fever and diphtheria, Is for the pur-
pose of securing to the public the greatest
benefit from this law. 1t is of little value
to know that a certain number Of cases of
typhoid fever exist without knowing their
probable origin. To determine their origin
requires special investigations by competent
inspectors. Such work can be done most
economically in connection with the scarlet
fever and diphtheria service. 1t Is there
fore recommended that the appropriation
act be Worded so as to authorize such In
vest1gat1ons to be made, and the cost 20
be paid out Of the appropriation available
generally for that service. 1t Is recon-
mended, too, that the amount available for
the enforcement of the contagious disease
laws be increased SO as to allow a larger
margin or safety than exists at present.
Inc amount available at any time should
De suHcient to provide for the proper en-
forcement of the laws for the suppression
or contagious diseases at least until Con-
gress can provide additional funds If nee
essary; that is, they should be sufficient to
conduct the proper service from July 1 until
some time in December While under all
ordinary conditions $4,000 the amount of
the present appropriation, is sufficient, this
amount would probably not be sufficient
under such extraordinary conditions as
have arisen in other cities and as are liable
to arise here.

ANNUAL ESTIMATES
Appropriations for Health
Office the Ensuing Year.
INCREASES NEEDED
SUGGESTED PROVISION FOR MED
1cAL INSPECTION IN SCHOOLS.
Congress Requested to Authorize I'm
mediate Construction of Municipal :
Hospital-Fever Investigation.
INCREASES NEEDED

DIR. VIM. C. Woodward, the health officer
has submitted to the Commissioners esti-
mates of the appropriations necessary for
the proner conduct of the health depart
ment during the fiscal year beginning July
next. Dr. Woodward asks for a number of
improvements for the health service. He
suggests among other things that an ap-
preparation be secured for beginning work
on the new municipal hospital, that Con-
gress be asked to provide for medical in
spection in the schools, that public bath
house be established and that bacteria
logical laboratory be added to the health
Office equipment Explaining the various
changes and the new items, DR.. Woodward
SAYS:
THE proposed increase in the salary Of
the chemist, from 81 800 to $500 per an
mum. is recommended because Of the special
qualifications necessary for the proper dis
charge of the duties of this position. This
chemist examines dairy products and other
foods of all kinds, water and substances
submitted by the coroner and by the police
department. the analysis of which Is neces-
sary for the detection Of crime.
THE work devolving on the sanitary and
food inspector, who acts under existing law
as inspector of live stock and dairy farms,
Is of a special character and requires a
technical education and technical qualtfica-
tons.
1T is impossible for the pound service,
ganiZed on the basis Of single pound
wagon as at present, satisfactorily to pre-
vent domestic animals from running at
large contrary to law. Provision should be
made for an additional wagon. In order to
do so it will be necessary to employ some
responsible person to accompany such
wagon. An appropriation of $500 for an as
sistant poundmaster is, therefore, recon-
menQed.

Trouble Over Patronage.

The reason for the disagreement between
the factions is said to be the distribution
of patronage The incumbents said to
favor a sort of formal organization and to
control by that organization the offices,
while the other faction says make fight
and If the majority favor change OF dis
tributors of places all right and well, but
they oppose the idea of surrendering TO the
democrats without a show down. Just who
controls the situation is not known, but
it is likely that candidates will be put up
in a majority of the districts. the criti-
cisms of the President have stirred things
I'D considerably. The faction favoring the
naming of candidates has taken courage at
the stand Of the President. and claim that
they will rout the fellows who are holding
sake of holding Office, while they do the
work and get nothing. The fight on Dis
trict Attorney Allen is based largely on
this idea. His opponent, Mr.. Thorpe, is one
of the most consistent republicans in the
state and is at all times full of fight, while
General Allen sees that it IS waste OF
time and of money to make nomination
simply for the glory Of having the can
didate defeated at the general election.
Jacob Yost Of Staunton, who represented
the tenth district in Congress few years
ago, is said to be willing TO make the race
again in opposition to Representative Flood.
Mr.. Yost is an old-time republican and
stands high in the state. But it is believed
that Mr. Flood would have little difficulty
in defeating him. Mr.. Swanson, in the fifth
district, will have little trouble In defeat
ing Mr.. Davis. who is making a lively
canvass.
