BY sending circular letters to county
school superintendents the state land
department this year proposes to avoid
trouble In the enforcement Of the pro-
visions of chapter "a OF the Laws Of
1904. This law requires school officers
to make sworn statements regarding to
their returns of school census. In the
past such returns were made without
oath, and with the state school fund
apportioned on the number of school
children returned there was n strong
temptation of some of the officers to
make the return as strong" as pos
sible. When the reports began to coma
in it was necessary to return many OF
them for the sworn statement, and in
some cases the report was sent back
several times before il finally was COM

Ito matters of sanitation and questions
|of public health, and leaves to the pro-
pertv owners the necessity of seeking
protection and redress in the Courts.
If the functionaries who live in the
only habitab.e public buildings were
|capable of learning anything, they
would understand that things cannot
lcontinue in their present condition
without their having to blush for very
shame.
The present state of things cannot
lcontjnue, because it is an unheard of,
a preposterous thing that the proper
|ty owners should be continually wo-
|rried and harrassed about matters of
public health and hygiene, about pro-
|gress and ornate effects, when all the
money spent will be useless in view
|of the Indifference and neglect ap-
parent from fficial centres.
The sacrifices made by the proprie-
tors in condition of crisis such as the
present mt rits greater recognition on
the part of the government.
In order to make the property ow-
ners do everything, they attempt to
frighten them with alarming statem-
ents and prophecies about disease. cpl
denies and death, dangers were mag
nifed the necessity for precautions
were exaggerated, in order that each
one of the reforms imposed should be
thought to be of vital importance and

By reading the sanitary report o1
Doctor Lugo Vifias, which we publls-
hed in our issue of Saturday last, ou1
readers have been able to realize t.
what reprehensible extent our autho
rites have ignored and abandoned
the matter of public health.
The reading of this document can
not do otherwise than produce teei-
| ing of d1squietude and concern.
It is a confirmation of all the sus
picions which have been entertained
and which are more or less proved
the ratification cf the belief that the
public authorities have not made tAe
slightest endeavor to guard the gene
raj health by seconding the private
efforts of the property owners and the
we'll directed observations OF certain
competent officials.
The document in question reiterates
what we have said on other occasions
and confirms what we have prophe
sled, what we all knew: but it has sta
ted it in manner and in terms which
leave no doubt and convey to the most
Indifferent mind a feeling Of uneasi-
ness bordering on alarm.
We are living in the presence OF
threatened contagion, infection and
epidemic.
A short distance from the city, and
even in the confines of the city, hy-
qienic conditions are found in deplo
able condition.
And it is not only the general health
that is menaced-as can readily be
seen from the minute details furnished
in the above report-but the ornamen
tai aspect of the Capital also suffers
from the Indifference and neglect Of
the so called superior authorities.
All the work has b en- thrown on
the tax payers in an inconsiderate and
violent manner.
The sanitary campaign under such
circumstances has acquired the aspect
of and unjust Persecution.
In the face of the facts and eviden
ce presented, the government must be
condemned for its indefensible ne
glect.
What is it. if it is not censure, the
saying in official language that the
lands have been abandoned, the pu-
bile buildings neglected, that the pro-
prietors Of rural farms. who have CON-
piled with all re forms, who have ac-
cepted all the capriees and whims i'm
posed by hygiene a4d public health.
have to protest against the assaults OF
the administration, assaults and at
tacks of which they are the victims,
an administra tion, that does nothing,
that does not give its resources
