representation. was made by Presi-

tention OF the association to certain
conditions which he characterised, al

localities which he says are natural
breeding grounds for typhoid carry.
ing mosquitoes, and askei that the
city be requested to give such locali-
ties attention. He also urged the clos
creek canal. and cleaning up OF the
Ash wharves.

or the District Suffrage League. He
