PRESERVATION OF HEALTH
commissioners to Continue the En-
forcement of Laws

The hrst step to be taken by the Con,n,;s
sioners toward remedyng some of tho in
sanitary conditions alleged to exist in the
District, according to the report made tn
the Commissioners Saturday and which
was printed in yesterdays Star folIowing
an exhaustive investigation of the tvnboiS
FEVER conditions here by the bacterioloeists
of the public health and marine hosnitaI
service, viii be the abandonment of eli the
so-called shallow wells in the District
These wells were declared to be contamf
mated, and although the source of typhoid
fever infection could not be traced directly
TO them, they were found to be too un-
heaithy Tor public use. An order condemn
ing these wells permanently will be issued
by the commissioners at once and II Is
likely they will seek legislation next wear
TO sink deep wells in their places
II is the consensus of opinion of officials
at the District building that although this
report showed considerable pains and care
the conditions could not be looked upon as
alarming. They are also of the opinion that
the report does not show any more now
than was known before It was made re-
garding what was the cause of the recent
higth prevalence of typhoid in the District.
and one official ventured the remark that 1t
never will be known.
Commissioner mcfarland sees no reason
why the city's milk supply should be so
harshly condemned. According to the re-
port only 10 per cent of the cases of typhoid
investigated were traceable to this com
modify, and he considers that a fair per-
centage. considering the size of the city.
and in comparison with other large cities.
Every effort will be made by the District
health ohicials. however. 10 improve the
| handling of the local milk supply by rigidly
| enforcing the health laws, although they

| is of the opinion that from to 10 per cent

about the specific diaries for us to worl

Chesapeake and Delaware Canal Open

The rebuilding of portions Of the Chesa-
peake and Delaware canal, which connects
the waters OF the Chesapeake with those of
the Delaware, caused the closing of that
waterway to navigation for several months
past This work is now about completed,
and last week the canal was again opened
for navigation. A large feet of barges
laden with coal from Philadelphia and
bound to ports on Chesapeake bay and Its
tributaries has started south. and a fleet
equally as large is on its way north with
lumber and other cargoes from the
Potomac, Norfolk and elsewhere. 1t Is
stated that a number of the coal-carrying
barges from Philadelphia are consigned to
dealers here and they should arrive during
the present week.
The closing of the canal cut off one of the
important links in the interior waterways
of the coast and necessitated the use Of
the outside route In going from the Chesa-
peake TO Philadelphia and Delaware bay
points.

legislation of the year said in part /:
Legislation by the various states

and severe in character. The legis-
latures of five such states have passed
laws establishing two-cent rates per
mile as the maximum rate of passen.
ger fare and other laws have been
passed calling for serious reducti ons
in freight rates. Doubtless "a large
part Of the legislation has been due
to misconception of the actual condi-

SAVE THE FORESTS.

In TINS beautiful Indian Territory,
where the forests we're the most
varied and valuable of any in the
United States, the lumber sharks
and farmers axe arerapidly destroy
ing them. Recognizing the rapid
destruction Of the forests, President
Roosevelt emphasizes the impor-
tance Of tree planting in a recent
address to the children Of America.
The future Of a nation is inseper-
ably connected with the future Of its
orests. A nation that wastes its trees
wastes its vitality. A man who dissl-
pates his vital forces to the passion,
emergency Of the moment will know
real want when dire necessity con-
fronts him and he finds his resources
exhausted. So with a nation and
its trees.
The forests Of America are its
character. From them were assim-
ilated those sturdy. rugged, honest
trates which made our pioneers
exemplary forbearers for race des-
tined to dominate and civilize the
world. Our forests supplied our
first wealth; they are today our
greatest conservators Of wealth.
They are the foundation of the ma
tiou's health, wealth and v Nell-being.
And they are rapidly disappearing
No wonder that thoughtful men IN
and cut OF public life, who have
studied the problems of forestry and
foreseen the fearful consequences
that must follow the annihilation OF
the forests Of the country, are earn
estly and continuously imploring
the people to be warned, to stop be-
fore it is too late.
The President aptly points out
that it is not the present generation
but the next and the ones to follow
that are to suffer from the present
wanton and Wholesale destruction
Of the trees. That there will come
a time when, if the forests are de-
slroyed, many streams viii 60 dry
