"A good man for a town is a positive
man. BY positive man we mean a
man OF convictions and one who is
willing to have his convictions known.
We make this statement stronger.
BY positive man, we mean a mar who
is even anxious that his convictions
be known.
We, with purpose, follow the above
paragraph with discretion as the sec

mar for a town. BY a man OF diScre-

f1aunt his convictions merely for dis
play. The discreet man is n of
these great men whom you can always
locate when a question is sprung. but
assumes an attitude on principle,
and in all matters avoids personalities. |
a good man for a town must be con-

Only four eases of typhoid fever were
reported TO the Health Office this morn
ing, and conditions now are more favor
able.
Since yesterday al noon eight cases
were reported, which shows a reduction
since Monday. There have been two
deaths and two recoVerieS in the last
twenty-f0ur hours, reducing the actual
number OF cases under treatment 10 259.
Al this time last year there were 157
cases under observation. or 102 less than
this year.
Although the Health Office will not
issue an official statement as yet in re
gard 10 the apparent check in the ad-
vance OF the fever, It Is generally be-
lieved that the high mark has been
passed
In the course of a few days several
events viii occur which viii materially
arTect the spread of the typhoid fever
germs. The partial use OF the filtration
plant VIII begin tomorrow. and the War
Department has promised 10 hasten the
work OF cleaning Dalecarlia reservoir in
order 10 allow the water from Great
Fails TO purify by sedimentation. The
resumption of the use OF this reservoir
and the addition of an eVer-increasing
supply of filtered water will have the
effect of killing out large percentage
OF the typhoid bacteria now transmitted
through the water.
