Pest Ezterminators Will De-
mand the Passage Of a
Law by the Next Legisla-
ture.
DR.. DICKlNSOA'S OPINION
HE SAYS LITTLE CAN BE HOPED
FOR FROM JERSEY CITY,
WHERE THE HEALTH BOARD
Is PURELY ORNAMENTAL.

At the monthly meeting Of the con-
ference committee on mosquito exter-
mination in New Jersey in the offices of
the Health Department, Newark a
proposition TO Secure iaw which Will
force boards of health to take action on
the petition Of q specified nuHaser OF
frecllolders for aAe aaate.nert &C sl.c
pests as a nuisance, was advanced and
met with general approval. The confer
ence has met with good deal Of trouble
in the past because OF The lack cf inter-
est of the health boards of ncighboring
towns and cities.
Relative to this point it was encourg
ing to the committee to welcome repre-
sentative from Jersey City in the person
of DIR. G. X. Dickinson. Whether New
Jersey can be moved to take action in
practical cooperation with Newark and
other nearby cities is, however, ques-
tion. DR.. Dickinson said he was doubt
full whether any appropriation could be
secured from his city to further the work
/ of mosquito determination.
I'VE have a great many politicians
there crying for reform, said he, ''but
they forget to do anything. We have
had an increase of fifty policemen at
81 600 year each, but we have only six
health inspectors, and it will be very diff
cult to get more"
The committee was of the unanimous
| opinion that something was wrong with
Jersey City. Either the. natives Of that
\ county are immune and care naught for
mosquitoes or they are Indifferent to
their own and the general welfare of the
State in this matter. An educational
campaign" for the benefit of various
health boards throughout the State was
decided on, with Jersey City as the spec
ial point of attack. But the representa-
tive from that city, while hoping much
would promise little.
You see" said DR. Dickinson, ..ihe
Board of Health in Jersey City is or
namental and never to be used if it can
be avoided We have about as much
to do as the Hudson County Health
Board, which is nothing at all.
The committee, in accordance with
the motion at its last meeting to So
licit funds to carry on its work, had
printed a large number of circulars,
which will be mailed to the various
boaeds in New Jersey and to prominent
individuals whom it is desired to get
interested. Anyone interested may be-
come member of the commidttee The
circular states that s'the mosquito can
positively be exterminated, and this
means great deal to New Jersey. The
results accomplished on the Newark
and Elizabeth meadows and at Mon
mouth Beach justify US in making this
assertion. But unless the work is taken
up in a general way throughout the
State satisfactory results can hardly
be looked for; and it requires just such
educational work as this committee is
doing to get rid Of the pests The
committee will appreciate any dona-
ton you may feel able to make

Placer company will meet in this city
tomorrow TO ratify a deal which in
wolves the sale Of all Of the cOmpany'S
treasury stock. y good price has been
offered for the stock and the money
is to be applied, in part, to building

mence Immediately and w. i. Higgin-
botham. manager of the properties,
writes that he will be ready to begin

During the winter said an officer
of the company yesterday, 1--WE have
patented all of the COmpany'S claims
and the work done last season was of
such a character as to place everything
in ship shape for heavy sluicinE opera
tons this season. Manager Higgin-
bOtham assures us that he can clean
up for the season all of $4,000 and
have money enough left. after paying
a dividend of that amount, to start
things in good shape next year
AG the company is capitalized for
200, 900 shares it seems that the stock
holders are in for a handsome rake-off
this season. Its mines are located in
BOrette canyon, in the northern part
of ElkO county. Nevada, and comprise
sixteen placer claims, all of which have
gone through the patenting process
without protest. The gravel runs from
80 cents to 81 per yard in coarse gold
and in addition there are Outcroppings
which indicate fine values in the lodes
from which the placer deposits came.
These are controlled by the company
and by and by, after the gravel de-
posits are worked. the company viii
