Garbage Contract is
Health Necessity

Bids for seavenging In Ely will
without doubt be called for at the
first meeting of council in March, and
the indiscriminate hauling of garb-
age, which is conducted at present by
several persons, will be narrowed
down TO that one who shall offer the
largest return to the municipality for
the privilege. A move to secure a
public dumping ground for garbage
is now on foot.
While apparently of little import
ance the move is really one of the
most Importance, so far as the health
of the city is concerned. which can be
taken. At present there are several
persons hauling refuse from the res
licences and business places of Ely.
The material is being deposited, gen.
orally speaking, indiscriminately. So
largely Is this true that some one
has endangered the health of the en-
tire section by depositing several
wagon loads near the flume from
which the greater part of the people
OF Ely secure water for washing and
drinking purposes.
Councilman Root and Marshal
Hudgens spent a portion of yester-
day looking over the surrounding
country for a convenient dumping
ground for refuse. While they did
not make decision, they have several
sites in view which they will report
on later. All are situated far
enough from Ely to eliminate dan
ger of infection when warm weather
comes.
The scavenging privilege is val
protected, and no one else allowed
TO participate in the work. The man
bidding it in could we'll afford to
put on several wagons and give the
public better and more systematic
service than has ever been had in the
past.

quick stop seemed in order. as It APP
peared that he would not get out of
way, but as the engineer was about
to apply the emergency brake he
stepped TO one side.
No sooner had he perceived the on
coming train. however, than he fam
eied that he could board it without
trouble, as he made a grab for the
cab steps as the engine passed. Miss
ing these, he fell, apparently going
beneath the wheels. Mortified, the
engineer stopped as soon as possible,
going back to pick up what he ex-
pected would be a mangled body I'M

at frequent intervals blew with We
locity of 80 miles an hour. and it
hurled the snow through the streets
in such binding clouds that 1t was
impossible to see for a greater dis
tance than half a square, and often
the range of vision would be limited
to few feet. A great number of ae-
cidents of a minor character were
caused by collisions between wagons
and street cars. Up to 6 O'Clock to-
night no serious accident had been
reported. although number of peo-
pie had been injured by wagons and
by falls on the pavements.
The street car companies and the
elevated roads Jared well through
out the day. but the heavy increase
of snow that came in the late after
noon made desperate work for them.
Every available man and all the snow
plows were constantly at work in
keeping the tracks clear. In the
suburbs the trolley lines were OPP
Grated with great difficulty because
of the constantly increasing drifts,
and locomotion becaume constantly
