GARBAGE DISPOSAL
PRESENTS SNAG TO.
CITY COMMISSION.
MUNICIPALITY CONF ONT & D
WITH NECESSITY OF OBTAIN.
ING SUITABLE PLACE FOR
DUMPING REFUSE AS RESULT
OF N. /. /. IT. CO. ORDER.

Notification that the Northern Hi
noia Light and Traction Company had
closed its property lying east of La
street and at the junction OF the Fox
and Illinois rivers, south OF Mill, as
dumping ground TO the general pub
lie. was served upon the city cOunci.
last night by Commissioner of Public
Health and Safety Dana Palmer.
The announcement precipitated
brief hut spirited debate on the fastly
growing problem Of garbage disposal
now confronting the city. The com
missioners agreed that it is only a
matter Of a short time until Ottawa
viii have to provide other means Of
getting rid CT its waste than dumping
it on some distant lot where decay
and evaporation can take care OF it.
The n, l. l.. 4 T. property has long
been used as public dump. At
times the smoke nuisance people used
to rant about was like the aroma Of
roses in full bloom when compared
to the stencil that arose from the spot
climbed half way to heaven and then
came back to earth to assail the nos
rils of anyone who happened near
when putriication was at its height
Odors Obnoxious to the Extreme.
1t was this combination of od0r5
that brought a rule against further
use Of the property for that purpose
by the traction company. Complaint,
according the Mr.. Palmer, was well
founded inasmuch as people would
throw any refuse onto that land and
leave it there without administering
proper burial rights. Elmer Arm
strong, who operated a garbage Wag-
on. it was said, had been given eXclu
sive use of the dump and could con
tinue dispOsing of garbage there. 1t
was pointed out that he buries the
waste and the dump is left odorless
thereby.
Hints Of a monopoly were made, ac-
cOrding to Commissioner Palmer
until it was pointed out that Arm
strong's use Of private property is
mono of the city's business, and any
others who want to 80 into the garb-
age collection business, he said, must
secure sites for themselves and see
that every load Is properly buried SO
as to prevent either nuisance or
menace to public health.

that right now was a good time TO set
busy on a city owned garbage disposal
plant. I'VE need one ana eyentua,lN

when they assume the right Of In.
dividuals in defiance Of organization
law. ~.
If members of a trade union can at
any time shuttle off the obligations
which their own organization imposes
upon them. and by acting as individuals
repudiate agreements. they are inflict-
ing a dangerous wound upon their own
system. They are claiming the right
of the closed shop. while acting as
"open shoppers" A ''shop" can be
kept closed only SO long as the work.
ers regard the rules governing 1t. II
those employed in such q shop walk
out in defiance Of their own regula.
tions. on the ground that they are
acting as individuals" they make it
necessary for their organization to
man the shop regardless Of them, or
permit it to become open. The only
way a union member can gain the
right to act as an individual in such
circumstances Is to resign from the
union. Literally the Boston printers
who have struck have in this way quit
their own ranks.
Without public sympathy and with.
out support of their organization these
strikers are doomed to failure. But
the question involved in Boston is one
Of greater moment than the welfare Of
the individuals who have struck. 1t
relates to the obligation Of the Typo
graphical Union to maintain its own
discipline and order and having enter
ed into contract to fulfill that contract
so long as the publishers on their side
keep faith and observe the law.
