The chief danger of the spread of
contagious diseases in the city now
comes not from cases which develop
within the city limits where quarantine
regulations can be rigidly enforced by
the city health department and where
every possible precaution against the
spread of disease is taken under the
supervision Of competent health officers,
but from cases which develop within
the territory just outside of the city
limits and over which the health
authorities have no jurisdiction. The
imaginary line which divides the city
from the county has more than once
been an impossible barrier to the city
health officers in their efforts to CON
troll contagious disease and this condi-
tions cannot be tolerated very much
longer. There is prospect for great
betterment in the conditions complain
ed of by the organization of health
board in the town of Pleasant Prairie.
This board is avowedly to be organized
for the purpose of beading with the
question of the dumping of the garbage
from the city in that town, but once it
is installed in office it should not be a
difficult matter to convince the mem
bers Of the board that there should be
the closest cooperation between the
city and the town of Pleasant Prairie
in dealing with contagious diseases. 1t
is possible that for the better protec-
ton of the people of the city the health
commissioner or his deputies would be
instructed by the local board of health
to handle all cases that develop just
over the dividing line between the city
and the town if the authority to act is
conferred by the board of health of
Pleasant Prairie, Some arrangement
viii have to be made with the towns
of Pleasant Prairie and Somers in the
near future looking to the better con
troll of outbreaks of contagious diseases
on the borders of the city or the mat
ter will have to be taken up with the
state board of health for the city can
not submit to have the efforts Of its
health officers to prevent the spread of
disease nullifed by the carelessness of
people just beyond its controk

Lake Michiga- was swept by the
heaviest storm in years Sunday and
Monday and the effect is seen in the
water in the city mains. All of the
sediment deposited on the bottom of
the lake for miles out from the shore
has been stirred up by the swirl Of the
waters and is now held in solution and
the chlorination plant will have the
worst conditions to contend with for
the next few lays that it has had since
is was installed. While it is believed
that the plant will be able to contend
with the unusual conditions and make
the water safe, it would do no harm to
boil all of the water to be used for
drinking purposes until the lake sub
sides again and the water in the mains

There's going to be downward
tendency in diamonds for sometime to
come, on account Of the unregulated
production of independent miners.
The policy Of the de Beers concern
was like that of the Brazilian coffee
valorization conspirators-to hold
back offers for the sake of maintain
ing high prices; but the high prices
have tempted the Independents to
promptly dispose of every stone they
mined.

Of the campaign against the white
plague is so universally recognized that
it will not be necessary this year to
stimulate the sales of the Red Cross
Christmas Seals by the offer of any
prizes and none will be put up. The
people of the state will have a chance
to show that the knowledge that they
are assisting in the greatest work for
humanity that has been undertaken in
centuries IS a. sufficient incentive to in
duce them to make as liberal use Of the
