scoTr,s UNTMELY DEATH.

rAr oRID-wIDE regret has been caused by the au-
w nouncoment of the death Of Captain Robert w.
Scott the intrepid Antarctic explorer and four mem
bers OF his party following their discovery Of the
south Pole It is pity that those brave Brons,
who had spent more than two years in successful
quest for tho pole could not live to to cyiiEa
ton and receive the plauds and congratulations of
those who admire and purposeful While It
is true that the honor Of being the first dscoyerer Of
the South Pole belongs TO Captain Raod Amundsen,
the margin between their discoveries is narrow
that it counts for but little The brave Norwegian
reached the pole on December H. 1911 and Scott and
his party reached It on January Is 1912, or month
and one day later. Il must have been a keen dsap-
pointment to the Enslishmen however, when they
finally reached the goal for which they had been
striving so long TO find there the hut which Captain
Amundsen had left standing when he started back to
report his discovery.
Captain scotts record as an explorer OF tho Ant
arctic regions had been established firmly before he
started ON the expedition that resulted in his death.
His work i'm Ross Sea and the great ice barriers
his discovery land and his penetrations hrs Of
400 and then OF 800 miles into the frozen regions paved
the way for the splendid work that subsequently
done by Sir Ernest Shaoklcton. Whatever he did,
was done thoroughly and when It was announced that
he intended TO work his way to the pole, one Of the
best expeditions ever organized for work in Polar re-
gons was placed under his command. An unfortunate
circumstance of his last work that he selected the
longer route 10 reach his goal That enabled Captain
Amundsen TO defeat him the race, but il will de-
tract little from the glory OF his final achievement and
OF the great contributions he has made TO the scientific
knowledge Of the Antarctic regions through the records
of this aud previous expeditions

GUYENCOURT FIGHTS
PROPOSED HOSPITAL

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
In the issue of THE EVENING
JOURNAL of Saturday, February s.
the heading OF an article entitled
Seek site For Hospital at Guyen-
court" caused much surprise and
protest among the residents and tax
payers Of this locality.
According TO the article If the bill
introduced today passes. that tho
troubles Of the Delaware State Tub
orculosis Commission and the people
of the Eleventh Ward would be at an
end
Truly if tho good people Of VIII
minnton allow tho hospital TO be
erected at Guyencourt they would be
treating their own healthy bodies In
a mighty strang manner. Had tho
hospital been erected in Wilmington
the sewerage would have gone into
tide water with no danger whatever
OF germs entering the drinking water
OF your city but in the case Of the
hospital being erected at Guyencourt
all the sewerage from the building
would flow into a branch of the
pldnul Wlht anu dlitl u HOW VI thiN'-
fourths of a mile would enter the
main stream of the Brandywine and
then after a dow of six miles would
be within your pumping station.
It's a strange state Of affairs. When
the Delaware State Board of Health
and the Wilmington Board of Health
came through this section which COM
prises Guyencourt and vicinity and
condemned many barn yards, hos
pens and other buildings because the
outlet from the said buildings flowed
into the Brandywine and yet the State
Tuberculosis Commission is allowed
TO build hore in our healthy section
allowing far more terrible health i'm
pairing germs to enter the drinking
water of your city than would enter
from all the barn yards In this sec
tion.
It is to be hoped that the bill will
fail not only for the benefit of thu
health OF this section but especially
for the health of the thousands IN
Wilmington
Respectfully,
A Taxpayer and Resident of Guyen'
court.
] would suggest to amend the bill
so that II will read that sewerage
would flow into tide-watcr.

OPPOSES GUYENCOURT SITE.

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Sir: It is well when selecting "A
site Tor a hospital that such a site
should be, as near as possible, ideal
in every respect: il should not en-
danger the surrounding vicinity by the
many millions Of germs which at
times escape the powerful disinfectant
and thereby endanger the health of
the community. A hospital for
tuberculosis should, by all means, be
located so that the many million of
tubercular germs would not find their
way into the streams which flow into
the Brandywine from which Whining
ton. with population of about 10000,
draws its supply of water
Streams which drain the site at
Guyencourt, upon which il has been
proposed 70 erect the Colored Tuber-
culosis Hospital. all flow into the
Brandywine, so that the matter should
he considered from every angle before
the drainage from q hospital for the
cure Of tuberculosis should be allow
ed TO contaminate and endanger the
lives of 10000 people.
Sometime ago the Board Of Health
of Wilmington came To GuyencOurt
and inspected barnyards and toilets,
some of which were over twenty feet
higher than the level of the streams.
The Board of Health did their duty
at that time. but since it has been
proposed TO build hospital for
tuberculosis at Guyencourt, we have
not heard anything from them in op-
position of the same, and they are un-
doubtedly familiar with the conditions
here.
feel that the colored people have
perfect right TO a hospital Of this
kind, but owing to the fact that the
streams which drain the proposed site
empty into the Brandywine, from
which the people Of Wilmington OBJ
tain their supply Of drinking water
I too much care cannot be given TO this
most important question. Would 4
not be better therefore TO have thi'
hospital near Hope Farm, where the,
would both be together and thereby
eliminate the danger OF spreading TN
germs Of tuberculosis-the Whlt'
Plague--which annually claims b.
death one out Of every three hundre'
and twenty-three persons OF the en-
tire population Of the globe.

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
RESULTS.

To the Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Sir. That was a remarkable edi-
torial in THE EVENING JOURNAL.
February 9TH, on "Galseton and
Commission Government" telling
list of things done in Galveston be-
cause Of the commission form of
government The reason why it was
surprising to so many people is be-
cause many are yet unaware of the
superior efficiency Of the commits
sion form of government.
Permit me to add something that
has been done at Trenton. a city OF
our neighbor State. under the COM
mission form of government Last
Saturday | received a letter from
Mayor Donnelly, of Trenton, in which
he states the following facts. Under
the old system, asphalt payements
we're laid in the streets at cost of
S1.70 to $500 per square yard Btu
minous concrete cost from S1.53 to
$248 per square yard. The commits
sioners are now laying asphalt pave
ments for S1.3S per square yard, and
bitumlnous concrete for S1.27 These
prices include excavation. concrete
anu up HulluNtf anu utl 10 olhnuulN u
grade. Most of the pavement has
been of the bituminous concrete type,
composed Of asphaltic cement, and
broken stone ranging in size from
one-half inch down to fine stone-dust.
During the past -four months 10000
square yards have been put down,
and during the preceding year $4,000
square yards were laid There has
been a saving at $4,000 I'm this
alone
Can it be that there are any of our
citizens who would not like to have
done for Wilmington what is being
done for Galveston, Trenton, and
other commission governed cities?
We hear it said that some OF our
Office holders are opposed to the COM
mission form of government because
they fear the loss of Office Permit
me to say that among those who are
working for the commission form ol
government, so far as | know, there
has never been a thought about
changing ofiiceholders, except as is
necessarily incidental The same ofi-
GERS who served Trenton before the
commission form was adopted arc
. serving it now, with little change
and as a rule they like the change be-
cause they are not subject to political
influences. All that is asked Of then
! Is that they do their work we'll, and
they feel more secure than ever be-
fore. There is no intention of chang
ing officers in Wilmington. It is de.
sired only to change the system
whereby officers may render more
direct and efficient service. Let al
ofIlceholders give their earnest sup
port to the institution of the com
mission form of government, for the,
eventually will find it the best thins
even for their personal interests.
