Dr. Emmet son pointed out that the
two men whose names were signed w
the petition were the two largest em-
pteyttw otfaf•x in the town, lint they
}tad both been called away from town
on business and were consequently
not present. The speaker emphasized
the fact of the large vote cast on two
occasions for the local option bylaw,
which could rightly be taken as a
strong endorsat,on of the principles
for wbich the deputation stood.
Dr. Stang also addressed the
council, and cbaracter•ized the licensed
bar as the breeder of waste. idleness,
poverty. disorder and crime, even of
death, and he believed the lessening
of the number of ban would lessen
the evils that flow from the bars.
Without any discussion tbe council
sent the petition to the special com-
mittee.
The council then went on with the
regular order of business and disposed
of a large number of communications.

Dr. Hunter. medical bealtb officer.
submitted his report for tbe year 1911.
Scarlet fever and diphtheria were ear
Lireiy .besot from the town during
the y ear. Ten cases of typhoid were
reported during the year, at least
three of which were undoubtedly con-
tracted in other plaeee. Needy *11 of
these occurred in the fall mosths, and
there might be a 000neetion with the
contamination of the water supply by
river water owieg to Increased cur-
rents at that time. At the present
time the water is pedectiy pure.
Atttntion was called to the urgent
advisability of vaccination, as in an
unvaccinated community there with
always t.be,denger of an nutbreak of
smallpox. "Parente should see that
tbeir cbildren are vaccinated, and em-
ployers of labor ateeld insist on the
protection by vaccination of their em-
ployees."
The outbreak of rabies was men-
tioned, but the face• stated that no
i11 results were expected to follow.
During the year there were mixty-
three deaths in the municipality, at an
average age of 58.5 these ten
were due to tuberculosis at sin average
age of :45.5. Thus practically sixteen
per cent. of all deaths occurred from
this dread disease.
The usual number of complaints
'bout unsanitary premises were re-
ported and investigated during the
year. The officer bore testimony to
the efeci of the town's sanitary
,eepeetor b . Highed • -?here .tire
some complaints of siatwghterhousea
and a betterment of conditions was
expected for the coming year.
A letter from the Hotel -k rs'
Protective Association, signed by Fred
Davis as secretary, requested that the
council "insist on the policeman and
night-watchman doing their duty
seeing that the Liquor License Act bis
enforced."
The Mayor remarked, "Special com-

gested that the communication 1,e

however, bad bis way and the letter
