Report to Board Of

Recommendation of Health
officer to Grant Certifi-
Gates to Dealers APP
proved Of.

The board of health held its regular
monthly meeting yesterday afternoon.
DR.. Wright presented his report for the
month of June 1t showed a total of
1SO deaths for the past month, which is
a decrease of twenty-four under the
same month last year, The more prom
inent and dangerous diseases, however,
show an Increase, there being 2S deaths
from tuberculosis against 1S; 27 for
heart disease in comparison with s; 81
from pneumonia against 25, and two
from typhoid against one. Nephritis
and Brights disease show a big falling
Off, there being but six against thirteen
for last year.
The health officers archaeological
summary showed that 172 samples OF
milk had been taken and analyzed, of
which 1872 were found to contain sedi-
ments of dirt, etc, although they were
not below the standard set by the board
for their sale.
Dir. Wright recommended that the
board authorize the issuing of certifi-
Gates to milk dealers whose product was
in the opinion of the analyzers practic-
ally free from all objections. He stat
ed that this would necessarily be a
small number and would be an incentive
to improved conditions, as 1t would be
valuable for the dealers to have. Be-
sides superior quality OF products the
conditions Of production would have to
be entirely satisfactory to the board
Dr. Sullivan expressed an opinion
that such action bordered on class leg
islation. The board put the matter over
to the next meeting, with the under
standing that Or. Wright would draw
up a draft Of certificate for con-
sideration at that time,
In connection with the arrest Of Ma
than Kilman Monday night for selling
meat in this city which was slaughtered
In the condemned slaughter house at
Allingtown, Dr. Wright stated that the
city attorney suggested that the board
request the board of aldermen to pass
an ordinance requiring a license to sell
fresh meat This would make 1t pun
ishable offense to sell meat without
such a license from the board Of health,
and would enable that body to deal
more vigorously with such cases as
this. Kilman's case was settled out Of
court by the payment of fine and

HOPES TO OPEN TO-DAY

1t will be a great disappointment to
many to learn that the Consolidated
may not be able to open the new line
from New Haven to Waterbury by way
Of Naugatuck, Seymour and Derby.
Efforts are being made to get every
thing in readiness for to-day but there
is no positive assurance that the road
will be opened at this time.
AS has already been told, the trouble
is due to the negligence OF the Connec-
ticut company in not discovering un-
til last Saturday that the Naugatuclz
Valley Railway company, which held
the new line between Naugatuck and
Seymour had never been acquired
by the Connecticut Railway and, Light
ing company, and that no mention
was made of the new road in the pa
pers drawn up for the control OF the
lines Of the Connecticut Railway and
Lightning Company by the Console
dated Railway, Company, now the
Connecticut Company The fact that
the Naugatuck Valley Railway com
pany had never been turned over to

OPPOSES THE ACTION
Peace Union Against Sending of Fleet
to Pacific.

Philadelphia, July 9.-The executive
committee of the Universal Peace un-
ion at meeting here to-day placed it.
self on record as opposed to sending a
fleet of warships to the Pacific ocean.
The committee adopted the following
resolution:
In view Of the feeling existing in the
international relations between Japan
and the government of the United States
we regard the proposition, as reported,
Of sending. fleet Of battleships to the
Pacific border as unwise, inopportune
and irritating, especially as the second
peace conference is now in session at
The Hague, where are assembled over
$50 delegates representing forty five
governments with large and eminent
ly able delegation from the United
States and with representatives from
Japan.
Believing tht such action is calcu-
lated to impair, If not destroy the an
ticipated results of said conference and
lead more to war than to peace, we ap-
peal to President Roosevelt to with
hold any such demonstration"

ANTS BECOME
ACTIVE AGAIN
League in Convention Calls
for Immediate Action
Regarding Philip
pines.
SALE TO JAPAN
WOULD BE IMMORAL
Recommends Early and Com
plete independence with
Naturalization Treaty
by Powers.

Boston, July 9.--The Anti-Imperialist
league to-day made an appeal for ac-
ton against "the continued and inde-
finite retention Of the Philippine Is
lands" The appeal says in part:
The immense and Improbable bur-
den Of these possessions has never been
felt more strongly than to-day, in the
popular apprehension the United
States might have become involved in
war, 1t is now realized that their de-
fence would demand an almost impos-
sible military and naval force on the
other side Of the globe. The absurdity
Of an enormous sacrifice of life and
treasure to defend q territory whose in
habitants are discontented with their
relation to the United States, a re-
lationship which is deplored by the
great majority Of our own liberty low
ing citizens has become patent A sale
to Japan has been suggested in many
quarters as a method of escaping from
the dilemma, but 10 sell S,0O0,000 people
and their homes to any one is clearly
immoral and contrary to American
principles
There is one simple, just and prac-
tical method of relief for both coun-
tries, which we urge with renewed en-
phasis, viz: A pledge Of early and
complete independence to the Philip-
pines, together with a naturalization
by all the great powers including Jap
an. 1t is clearly demonstrated that
there is a large and Influential class of
educated Filipinos who are able to
guide their fellow citizens in self-gov-
ernment."
The appeal is signed by Moorefeld
Storey as. president, and Erving Wins
low as secretary Of the league.

MAJORITY NO GOOD
Road Amendment Can twin With out
Complete Recount.

The good roads amendment to the
state constitution plainly received a ma
iority of the votes, after revising the
figures according to the recount of the
Duluth vote, but the court is not eX-
pected to declare it adopted unless the
recount covers the entire state.
The state canvassing board declared
the amendment lost by margin of
BIB. 1t received al $40 votes out of
IL total of 2S4,366. The recount of Du-
luth's vote, made by order of the court
in the contest proceedings brought by
the Duluth Real Estate exchange, trans
ferred LAOS votes from the tax amend
ment to the good roads amendment.
This would raise the total for the road
to l43,27S, or about 100
more than a majority. The trouble is
that Il contest decision cannot be given
till all the vote is counted. The rest
of the state would probably increase
the majority for the road amendment.
but the court must recognize the pos
sibiity that it would turn the other
way. SO the road amendment is still
officially lost, and will remain lost I'M
less the recount is completed. If it
should carry, the authorized levy for
the state road and bridge fund would
be raised from ne-twentieth to one
fourth of a mill.
The tax amendment. on the first re-
turns, had l56,05l votes, or 1865 more
than majority. 1t is still more than
$4,000 ahead, and it is not thought
likely that complete recount would
wipe out such big lead.

Milkmen Dislike It.

Faribault, Mimi, Special, Feb. ID
The Minnesota Milk Shippers associa-
ton held its annual meeting in this
city and elected the following officers:
d. w. Illsley, president; Andrew Charl-
son, vice president; p. H. j. NJ. Donk-
ers, secretary; Arthur X. Finseth,
treasurer.
A resolution was passed favoring the
extension of the limit for 2-cent rate
per gallon, so as to include Kenyon,
Skyberg, Faribault and other shipping
points; also the reduction of the state
test from SO to per cent.
The members are very much opposed
to the renewed activity on the part Of
the Twin Cities to force inspection for
tuberculosis of their herds and will
build cooperative creameries before
submitting to the plan.
