MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.
eSCNCILMEN.

One of the most needed institu- tions in town at the present time Is hospital. Not that we have at present any sickness, but we are likely to at any time and then we will be in a sad predicamcnt if not prepared,
 It should be borne in mind that the great majority of men here are far from home. They came here to make a competency and return. Seeing the possibilities of the coun- try they remain, and more than likely will spend the remainder of their days here. Some have built homes and sent for their families, while others contemplate doing SD, but the great .majority are alone, and if sickness falls to the lot of one of them he is entirely dependent on the kindly disposi- ton of his neighbor or camp com panion for the care anl attention necessary for sick man. The nurses may be willing and oblig- ing, but being inexperienced they are very often more harmful than good, and the musher's home, where the sick may be forced to lay up in is not always in the best condition for q sick chamber, and the patient is apt to finger along in misery for long time; whereas, with suitable building and trained nurses, in conjunction with the doctor's skill, fit of sickness is not apt to fill man with despair, and a rapid recovery is possible.
 The Episcopal church of Valdez, under the direction of Bishop Rowe, has offered to equip and maintain a non-sectarian hospital if the peo- pie will furnish the building, The ground is already secured and an attempt has been made to collect the necessary funds for the struc- ture. About $3OO has been col lected, to which the bishop has kindly added donation of $500, but still we are short, and it is very urgent that We raise more. Plans have been drawn up and are in the hands of the committee and the building will be started as soon as possible.
 The deficiency should be made up at once, So when the committee calls let us bs liberal.
 Now that the snow is melting so rapidly, some steps should be taken by the council to have the streets and alleys cleared of the garbage, and kept clean. When the snow disappears entirely our streets will be in disgraccful condition. Ashes and all sorts of refuse have been thrown out on the streets, and as the warm weather comes will be 2 menace to the health of the com ynnnity.
 An ordinance should he passed requiring all business houses to have a receptacle for this rubbish, which could he hauled away at intervals and dumped on the beach. Tine health officer, or some man appointed for the purpose, should be given authorty to inspect the alleys and yards in the residence portion of town and see that the property owners cleaned them up, and keep them in proper coalition. A few precautions ef this kind may save the town from ar epi- demic which would cost the citizens many times the amount necessary to clean up the streets and alleys.

in Mexico Must Be Obliterated

Laredo, Texas, Nov. 9.-Notwlth-
standing the efforts of the physicians,
the yellow fever continues without
much abatement.
The official bulletin issued last night

yellow fever expert, returned Friday
from a trip as far as Saltillo, where he
has been investigating the yellow fe-
yer situation. In an interview yester-
day he stated that conditions In Mon
terey, If Judged by other cities where
yellow fever has been epidemic, indi-
Gated no less than $4,000 cases there
rhis year with the mortality rate
placed Conservatory at s per cent
The deaths have been greatly in ex-
cess of the number reported In official
bulletins issued at that city and fully
500 cases exist at the moment.
All the stations on the line Of the
Mexican National between Laredo and
Saltillo have suffered an invasion of
the yellow fever and have contributed
an unknown number of deaths and
cases.
The doctor stated that there was no
quarantine south of Monterey which
would merit the name. He said the
vast commercial interests of Mexico
are becoming alive to the situation and
