CARE OF THE LEPERS.
Two Bills Before the House Committee
on Commerce.

The care of lepers in the United States
and Hawaii was considered today by the
House committee on interstate and foreign
commerce. Two bills, one providing for
the establishment OF a sanitarium in this
country, to which may be sent all lepers In
the United States. and another, appropri-
ating $4,000, TO be used In Hawaii for the
scientific study of the disease. were before
the committee. Delegate Kalanianaole ex-
planned briefly the condition of lepers in
The Hawaiian Islands. He said there were
over n thousand persons suffering with the
disease there. Great care was exercised to
isolate them in the leper colony on the Is
land of Molokai, and the territorial govern
ment spent 100000 in their care in the last
six years. The dimnution of the revenues
of the islands, owing to their absorption by
the United States, he said. amounted to
$l2jo.000 annually, and for this reason the
federal government was asked for an ap-
preparation. not to care for the lepers, but
To prosecute a scientific study of the dis
ease with the view of finding some remedy
therefor.
Surgeon General Wyman of the public
health and marine hospital service explain
cd the need of the leprosarium in this
country.
He said there were known to be 21J per-
sons afflicted with the disease in the
United States, and he estimated there were
100 hundred others. They are scattered
throughout the states and territories. He
suggested TO the committee site in the
arid region of the southwest.

WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
Corporation Counsel's View of Point
Raised by Fire Chief.

Coronation Counsel Duvall, in an opinion
submitted to the Commissioners today
holds that the Commissioners have no au-
thority to withhold license for entertain
ments of wrestling bouts in the Washington
Light Infantry Hall until the management
shall give assurance that smoking will be
prohibited in the hall. Fire Chief Belt sug-
gested that the corporation counsel be asked
for an opinion on this question, stating that
on a recent occasion the smoke from the
large number of spectators In the hall arose
into ChaSe'S Theater overhead He feared
that panic might be occasioned in the
theater at some future date should the au-
dience above observe the smoke from the
hall.
Commissioner mcfarland states that
since the corporation counsel holds that
the Commissioners cannot withhold licenses
for entertainments in the hall he will as
certain whether the Commissioners have
authority to adopt regulation prohibiting
smoking in halls where entertainments are

PHILOMATH WATCHING.
The Water Election-No Fire Protec
ton There-Corva1lis Election
May Solve It.
Editor Corvallis TIMES:

Editor Corvallis TIMES:
The talk in the Corvallis pa
pers for and against better fire pro-
lection. has stirred up the question
again in Philomath. For nearly
ten years there has been no fire
protection here excepting perhaps
a dozen fire extinguishers. These
have done good work on several
occasions, and with plenty of water
would control fire in many cases.
Since the old tank rotted down,
several plans to bring water to our
town have been discussed but
abandoned. A survey was rough
ly made once to bring Mary river
water here, but the matter fell
through although we all realized
that if a fire started in the bust
ness portion OF town, it would only
be by unusual luck if the town was
not wiped out. Insurance is high,
and hard to get, and a feasible plan
to get plenty of water would be
welcomed by us all. I think we all
realize that if a Corvallis main
passed us at the foot of the hills
and could tap it for Philomath' s
benefit that the question would be
solved, and it is earnestly hoped
that we can solve the question in
this way We realize that Corval-
lis must get mountain water soon,
and when she does, it will be mu.
tua " beneficial if we can arrange
tot ? the main and obtain share
of the water. We hope this prof
ect will go through at this time an6
I think almost every man will SET
| the benefit and help all he can.
