SHOULD BOILTHEWATER Kays Xo duise for Great Alarm, But Precautions should Itc Taken Water To lie Analyzed. Dr. II. E. 1,. Holt, acting state health- officer, arrived in Roseburg today to investigate causes for the recent development of typhoid fever In this city. In an intorvlnw with a News reporter today Dr. Holt stated that (hero Is no cause at present for puonde to be greatly alarmed and that he does not believe there wl!l be an epidemic of the disease, but that until a thorough Investigation can bo made, water for all domesth! pur poses should be boiled. He aluted that the teste of water samples, sent to tho state department by Dr. -'hofi-naker, were very unsatisfactory, that Is, nothing either for or against could be determined, as something had destroyed even the normal growth In the water, hence It will be necessary to make other tests, and Dr. Holt will take back samples of tho water from the reservoirs, from the Ice plant and from the wat;r at the company's plant at Winchester. Dr. Holt found considerable care lessness on tho part of campers nlong tho North Umpqua river, above Win chester, and Bteps will be taken to eliminate that condition, at once. "The long dry apell has had a ten dency to contaminate wiiter to a more or less extent all over tbe state," said the state health officer, and bo further stated that he thought general conditions wore probably the cause of the cases hero. Tho officer said today that tho local health officers are doing all that enn possibly be done here, and em phasized the fact that the-o Is no cause for the people to be, unduly alarmed at present. 0. n. Frank, manager of the Dong las County Water & Ught Co., -.called upon Dr. Holt today, Mr. Frank Is very active in Investigating the condition of the water, and yesterday sent two samples, one of reservoir water and the other from tho plant at Winchester, to tho state health department, for examination. Ho is co-operating heartily with the au thorities in determining whether or not tho trouble Is due to th3 water supply. Dr. Holt will return to Portland tonight, and as it takes 43 hours o rtake tho tests of the sam ples of water, tho utmost precaution should be taken In tho meantime.
