wyoming at Washington

at is a pleasant thihR when a
man who lives in a remote and
,biuIy propled part of the nation,
,.oas to Washington and finds that
h;s senators and representatives in
congress are men of influence and
h;ob standing, 'said John B.. Hard
castle, a wealthy Wyoming stock
raiser at the Staffold,
"Tbis is the experience 1 have
~slwsys had, whenever 1 journey
IN tbe national capitol. We have
q spIenIid senatorial team in the
rarsous of Senators Clark aud
Warren, and tho we have but one
man in the house, he is worth a
dozen ordinary politicians. This

consecutive term. Mr.. MondeIl is
inyincibIe in his state, and when
over one of the older men drops

say concerning "Wyoming in Con-

"The benighted state of Wyom-
ing labors under the terrible
handicap of having but one repre-
in congress To us of
New York city, with our squad
of choice Legislators all drawing
salaries and mileage, this condi-
ton may well seem deplorable.
All the seme, we are inclined to
the opinion, based OH a somewhat
extended perusal of that most in.
teresting of magazines, the Con-
gressional Record, that Wyoming
not SO badly off. In fact after
the speech of the Hon. Frank W.

DR.. HOWELL FOR
CITY HOSPITAL
Another Physician Endorses
Project Suggested by
Mayor SpruanCe

Mayor Spruance continues to re-
ceive support from physicians on the
movement started by him for the
erection OF a Municipal Hospital.
The following Letters were received
to-day from DR.. II. W. Howell, and
DR.. Henry A. Cleaver. DR.. Howells
letter follows:
Dear Sir: Several years experience
In the Board Of Health of this city
have convinced ME that a Municipal
Hospital for contagious diseases would
overcome a difficulty that has existed
for many years.
Our methods of quarantining are as
complete as possible under the condi-
tions. which are at present at the
command Of the health authorities, but
with a Municipal Hospital for con-
tagious diseases, properly managed,
the quarantining Of contagious DIS
eases could be made perfect.
The patients, as well as those who
had been exposed to the contagious
could then be properly cared TO- and
a great deal of inconvenience and un-
necessary suffering from lack of prop
er attention would be avoided.
Hoping that the city authorities will
give this matter their favorable con-
sideration, / remain,
Very truly yours.
Harrison w. Howell, NJ. ID.
/ DR.. Cleayer's letter follows:
Wilmington, Del. Nov. %, 1910.
1907 West street
| To the Honorable J. Harvey Spruance,
Mayor OF Wilmington:
Dear Sir | am addressing you as
the chief officer OF our city In behalf
of project vitally concerning the
public health
No activity in direction of the city's
welfare is OF greater importance than
that concerning the control and pre-
ventiOn OF infectious diseases, and no
matter how efficient a law or set of
laws may be the probability OF proper
enforcement of these laws is OF equal
Importance. TNere is a crying need
here for a better control OF the quar-
antine by the officials Of the city. The
quarantine regulations are good; the
physicians do their duty, but certain
sections OF the general public violate
the quarantine regulations as soon as
the physicians back is turned and the
lamentable fewness of Health Officers
combined with the excessive territory
which each of these over-worked men
must cover, makes II impossible for
them to carry out the work as they de-
sire.
There is one rational solution to this
problem and one that will care for the
sick. protect the we'll, and enable the
physician to have his patients cared
for properly That solution is the es-
tablishment of a Municipal Hospital.
As the situation snow stands only too
often the physician is debarred from
conducting such treatment as may
best benefit his patient. and in addi-
tion to this Is the bread-winner not
seldom compelled to see his family
suffer for the lack OF comfort, which
his hindered or prevented labouI
would bring them. oss
Hoping. sir, that you may see your
way clear to advance this movement
remain, Yours respectfully,
