sanitary conditions and measures, the
annual mortality was reduced to 22
per thousand. In a city of a million
inhabitants, like Berlin, this means
that 13.000 persons were annually
dying from preventable causes.
At the beginning of the present
century one half the population of
England were pitted with the small-
pox and tens of thousands died an-
nually from that disease, now rend-
ered powerless to disligure or destroy
by the fortunate discovery and appli-
cation of a preventive measure. More
recent medical discoveries lead to the
belief that consumption being infect-
ions,is largely preventable. So too with
typhoid and other fevers, diphtheria
and other maladies that annually
cause the death of thousands.
There can be ro more important
matter brought before the Charlotte-
town public than that of sanitation
and those preventive measures that
conduce to hinder the incepticn and
._ public mind has been so far avvalzned

to take those further measures that
are absolutely necessary to secure the

‘ health. And rightin the head of the

T The Toronto Star relates’a curious
and not unimportant occurrence in
which Governor Sir Oliver ‘Mowatt
opened the Ontario legislature the
other day. It appears that the speech
as agreed to by* the cabinet had been
given to onclof the telegraph com-
panies, and was being sent east and
west over the wires when a. sudden
stop was called, and the evening
papers which usually print the speech
were forbidden to do so. The reason
of all this was that on reading over
the speech Sir Oliver came across
some words and phrases which were
not to his liking, and he decided to
exert his po wer as the nominal framer
of the speechro make changes. The
changes, it is said, were trifling, but
1 what if they had not been trifling?
If the Governor may make minor
changes in the speech, of his own mo-
tion, may he not make greater
changes l And what would the cabi-
net have said if Sir Oliver had de-
termined to strike out an important
clause 'l There is food for thought
in this.
