Quarantine And Commerce
In The Pacific Arena

lower or main deck all of the room
in the superstructure should be used
as a passenger mastering or waiting
room.
The disinfecting scow should also
be equipped with automatic tenders,
a steam winch, four good anchors
and a steam crane fer hosting bag
gage The lazaretto scows should be
two in number but very much small
or in size than the disinfecting
scows. The length of such a scow
need be only so feet, the breadth 40
feet. The character of construction
should copform in a general way to
that recommended above for the dis
injecting scow In its general APP
pearance it should resemble a house
boat, and be attractively appointed.
On the main deck there should be a
decks or stories. The top story or
compartment should be devoted en-
tirely to ward purposes. 1t should
be equipped with special reference to
the care and treatment of quarantin-
able diseases. The compartment be-
lew on the main deck should be sub
and cook, and galley and staterooms.
All window, doors, and other open
ings should be protected by bronze
wire screening and devices for rem
dering all compartments air tight
for proper disinfection should be
provided.
floating quarantine plant should
never have less than two such lazar-
otto scows, for the reason that dis
eases such as plague and smallpox or
yellow fever and smallpox if treated
at the same time must necessarily be
widely separated.
The detention scows should con-
sist of three distinct units, one for
the housing of first cabin, another
for second cabin and a third for
Steerage passengers. Obsolete sail
ing vessels or hulks may be used for
detention purposes after suitable al
terations are made and the proper
appointments furnished. 1t is in
tended that the three classes of pas
sengers should be given accommoda-
tons and care while undergoing
quarantine detention If a kind sim
liar to the accommodations accorded
their respective classes on passenger
steamers. A flotilla quarantine plant
should be furnished with mooring
Iuoys placed in protected coves,
where access to shore will not be diff
ficult. and where the disinfecting
scow can be got at readily for imme-
diate use when required.

DISPOSAL OF GARBAGE

The use of a tight garbage can
should be enforced by law upon ev-
ely householder The cans should

transportation companies and the
garbage burned either in a regular
Crematory or on a dump heap. The
cost of garbage removal should nevcr

IS this makes an incentive for poor
people to hide their garbage. The
garbage tax should be made upon
real estate and the removal let out
TO competitive bidders on basis of
a definite price per cubic yard, Thus
Il successful contractor would be paid
in proportion to the number of cubic
yards of garbage hauled.

BUILDING LAWS

Every town in the Pacific Arena
should have building law requiring
either concrete construction immedi-
; tely between the ground floor and
the earth, or at least two and one
half feet of clear space between
ground floor and earth or else a ce-
nlent cellar with ten feet pitch. All
out spaces between the outer and
inner walls. If possible, laws should
be made to compel the protection of
windows and doors and water tanks
by bronze wire screening There
should be a liberal annual appro-
)Iiation for organized crusades
against insects and vermin.

WATERFRONT SANITATION
Sanitary Wharves

In maritime quarantine work
there is no part of a vessels sanitary
history which will go further to de-
,ermine quarantine credit and to in
iiuence quarantine judgment than
that which covers the character of
wharf occupied by the vessel at the
bCrt of departure. A wharf may be
allowed to become a point of infec-
ton or may be conducted as a sieve
for infection Just in proportion as Il
immunity IS retrogressive or pro-
gfessive. An obsolete dangerous
wharf is usually built low, and is
continuous with the shore, the space
between the tide line and the shore
Being strewn with wreckage of every
description, and the ground ridded
with rat holes. All refuse, and pos
sibly infected dead rats, from vessels
being easily carried up into these ed

THE MULTIPLICATION OF
MUNICIPAL SANITATION

Municipal sanitation as a factor in
the solution of the sanitary problem
III the Pacific Arena is extremely i'm
ortant. Indeed, the municipalities
held the balance of power in the So
luton of this problem The ports or
piaces in the Pacific Arena must be
rendered as invulnerable as possible
70 infection by quarantinable disease
!: quarantine is to be operated with
the smallest degree of hardship to
commerce and communities. SAM
tary reforms should be inaueurated
with view of effecting definite
standard for the ports in the Arena,
These ports should be rated accord
lrg to the protection from general
infection which civic improvement
end reforms have given them and
this rating should take the form of
: definite sanitary status, which stat
US should be renewed or modified
from time to time as indicated by
the ability of the municipality to
maintain a recognized sanitary stan
lard
A vessel arriving from a port with
u good sanitary status would then
be given a corresponding sanitary
CT edit. This would constitute be-
tween the ports of the Arena a SAM
tary reciprocity, which would have
distinct bearing upon quarantine.
III other words, quarantine judgment
would be aided by facts and not
h&mpered by fancies in the determi-
nation Of the proper quarantine ac-
ton. 1t is certain that the eradica-
ton of quarantinable disease, a CON
clifton which every sanitarian must
hope for and work for, will not be
realized until municipal sanitation
IS given the attention is deserves.
The future commercial develop
hent in the Pacific Arena bids fair
to render all of the ports equally liza
lie to infection with any or all of
the quarantinabe diseases, there
fore system of sanitary reforms
may be outlined which will apply to
all ports alike. For quarantine pur-
poses municipal sanitation should be
divided into borough and waterfront
sanitation. Borough sanitation in
Guides the improvement of streets,
Culverts sewers, water supply, res
ervolrs and distributing system, the
regulation of the disposal of dead
1Cdies and garbage, crusades against
insects and vermin, and proper mu-
nicipal health organization. regula-
ticn. and equipment Waterfront
sanitation comprises the proper con-
struction of wharves, warehouses,
and harbor lighters, sailors houses,
and special sanitary regulations re-

planted within 30 feet of any build
ing on quarantine station in the
Pacific Arena, and no trees or shrubs
with large leaves capable of holding
water or maintaining moisture
should be allowed on the reservation.
In other words, an area likely to be
invaded by the intermediate hosts of
the various quarantinable diseases
should be rendered as nearly as pos
sible inhabitable for them.

MONEY RATES ARE HIGH.
Withdrawal OF $50, 100000 From
Banks Stiffened Up Interest.

Henry Ciews says of the financial
condition of the country:
Unfortunately, there is no tendency
thus far to contract loans, which still
continue abnormally high The last
statement of the country's national
banks May 20 gave loans and discounts
at s4,631, 100000. an increase of $425,-
900, 900 over the corresponding state
ment made year ago.
Individual deposits and cash hold
ings show a satisfactory gain; never
theless, the expansion in loans must
be considered excessive. Already the
money situation is also somewhat un-
satisfactory owing to the great demand
for new capital and anticipation of
commercial reaction. The situation
there was somewhat complicated by
the Partisan demand for gold. which
was probably the result Of prepara-
tions for financing Russian require
ments. Thus far s12.400,0o0 of gold
have been exported from this side. %

Supply Streams With shad.

For the first time in the history of
Washington shad will be planted in
the streams of the state this summer
by the United States bureau of fish
cries, says the Seattle News. Work
will be begun tomorrow and before
the end of the summer a million of
these fish are to be turned into the
rivers of the state. Henry O'Malley,
of the government hatcheries at Ore
gon City, who will have charge of the
work, arrived from Oregon this morn
ing with 100000 newly hatched shad.
He will leave at once for Sedro Wool
ley to plant them in the Skagit river.
After this is done he will secure 200,-
900 more and turn them into the Sno-
homlsh river near Snohomish. Shad
will then be placed in the Stillaguam-
ish, Neeksack. White and Duwamish
rivers.

Judgment Against Northern Pacific

In the superior court this morning
Judge Rigg gave Judgment for the
Yakima brewery in its suit against the
Northern Pacific railway company
for the value of a quantity of goods
destroyed in the fire which burned
down the freight depot last winter.
TIE claim was fought by the railroad
company on the ground that the con-
ditons printed on the back of the
bills of ladng expressly exempt the
railroad from liability in the event of
less by fire. Judge Rigg said that he
had looked into the authorities since
taking the matter under considera-
ton and he was satisfied that the
printed rules and regulations on the
bills of laGing were not part of the
contract entered into by the shipper
and the railroad, that having been
decided by the supreme court. In
this case it was shown that the goods
had hcen in the freight shed on the
day of the fire and that they had not
been delivered to the consignee who
had called for them. He held there
fore that the company was liable for
the value of the goods destroyed. The
amount is about $500. The case will
be appealed by the railroad.-Yaki-
ma Republic.

Arrangements are now being made
by members of the state board of con-
troll to keep the Washington jute mill
at the state penitentiary in continuous
operation throughout the winter, and
unless present plans fail to materialize
the annual shutdown during the WIN
ter months will be eliminated, says the
Walla Walla Union.
This announcement was made by
Warden Kincaid yesterday afternoon.
There is now on hand jute material
sufficient to keep the mill supplied
until November Is, and before that
time arrives another large consign-
ment will be on hand.
The work of the men in the mill Is
most gratifying to all officials con-
nected with the institution, and the
products for the past year average
22S, 900 sacks per month, as against
an average of 175,00O in 1906.
There was on hand last Saturday
evening $4,000 sacks; sold to date
4O2,93O: on hand not sold, i5s,470.
Under the new apportionment law,
farmers of this state may make appli-
cation for sacks at any time before
the first day of July.
The apportionment made to Walla
