are spread. The writer has obser-
we'd the following facts:
On the west end of Washington
street and on the north side there
are some holes in the back yards
| that have only dried up within the
past week, as the result of our very
long drought. These holes have
been filled with stagnated water,
literally covered with the usual OBJ
noxious green scum, the odor from
which is not only nauseatins, but
unhealthy.
The cutters on Washington ST.
are very little better than some of
the back yards. The south end of
Pine street is very bad and should
an epidemic of typhoid fever break
out there, which is surely possible
who knows what the consequences
might land who would be respon-
sible for the expense and the pos
sible loss of life? A fire could
start in the above-named sections,
and with south wind, unless

could begin in that section and put |
our beautiful town in mourning.
