may be possible to prevent these becom

is also hoped by wide publicity to be

ticularly In the matter of toilet facili
ties, and In the care of buildings 'and

ment Is a new one.
Before the beginning of another sum
mer season the board purposes formu
lating definite rules and regulations
governing; toilet facilities at the various
resorts. Better supervision over the
water rupply and housing facilities at
hop yards is also suggested.
In connection with typhoid fever, the
bulletin says that, while it Is true, and
always will be true, that all extensive
outbreaks of typhoid are duo to muni
cipal water supplies polluted with sew
age, yet a very definite percentage of
cases Is caused by the Individual pollu
tion of the wells in rural districts, and
furt ner by fingers, food and flies.
'The kilose proximity of the toilet, the
refuse from the barn ' nearby. . tog-ether
with the slops from the kitchen, make
one wonder," continues the bulletin..
"not w&r people have typhoid,
but, rather, why so many escape."
- That milk, not from its own contam

source of Infection, says tbe bulletin,

The bulletin further points out the
necessity of better, supervision Over the

spector, announced today that every
charge made by thft passengers of the

ly Investigated before the hearings com
menced by Inspectors Guthrie and Dolan
on Friday have been completed.
Guthrie and Dolan declined to state
that there would be any further investi
gation when the President returned
from San Diego on Tuesday, but the
statement of Bulger eliminates the pos
sibility of staying the proceedings until
it Is fully determined whether the In
competency of the of fleers and ibe lack
of available equipment was responsible
for the loss of four lives during the
storm on Wednesday."
Whatever the result of the investiga
tion, to be resumed after the President
returns from the south, may be, It Is
now believed that the inquiry will be
followed by one which will cover the
general conditions which obtain on
every vessel plying out of the port.

VI have . followed the course of the

seems to me that the government ha
more than demonstrated . the faot that .
this company has been conducting .a
fraudulent business, contrary to tbe
statutes of this state and In violation of

"I would suggest, therefore, that you
