THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
"I am glad to neo that the new Board
of Health lias started in to do things, f>
said a citizen yesterday. “For a long
time the Board lias been nothing more
or less than a more figure head. The
new board seems determined to make
a different record for itself, l’hty have
iuverft-ignted several matters per-
tairing to the health of the city, and
recommended that tho council act. The
Board has none too much power. The
extent of their province is to recom
mend aud let the council act. A little
more power wouiun’t hurt the health
board.
We have eliminated ever feature of middleman’s profit aud
aud are in position to pa the highest possible prices^
for all cotton coming to us. It shall be our
polic to protect full the interest of our
patrons, therefore we.do not hesitate
to solicit their busiuess.
IKS COMING.
