SWEEPING THE STREETS.

The municipal street department evidently needs an almanac. Fur thermore, it has completely forgot ten that ancient and honorable ditty relating the fact that March winds do blow And finally, as a erowning the fact that Pine Bluff occupies place, perhaps a trifle backward but yet certain, in the procession of cit ies that are conducting a campaign to exterminate mankind's greatest bodily enemy, the great white plague. In every large city in the country,
 we believe, there is an organized movement to combat tuberculosis, and one of it's leading features is watering the streets and sidewalks before sweeping them. This is done in order that the tubercular germs which lie in countless thousands
 along the public thoroughfares in wait for their human prey may be washed away or swept off into the sewers and not permitted to float in the morning breezes to be inhaled into the lungs or afforded a secure the helpless passers-by. The Graphic long ago took up this movement. But the municipal street department is apparently not impressed with the importance of this theory. It does not sprinkle the streets before sweep- ing them in the glad summer time. possibly for the reason that the peo- pie of Pine Bluff have repeatedly re- quested Mayor Toney and the City Council to give them relief.
 The city officials evidently do not regard the windy days of March as proper time for the exercise of their zeal in this direction. They sweep the streets, leaving them dry as bone from start to finish. car rying on a vigorous campaign of cleanliness, utterly regardless of health, from the early evening hours until way into the morning until many of the entire population has struggled through clouds of germ filled, diesase- breeding clouds off dust through the various avenues to and from public places. What does 1t matter if a few hundred of strong men and women are cut off in their prime, or if scores of rosy checked babies nestling on their mothers breasts at eventide inhale the deadly germs and grow up into slckly maturity or die before life has fairly begune
