In|as to fact, the Plumb plan never did get | bccau anywhere. The N'ew York Times, * barl says: | '' "It took twenty-five years to de- j ',,,r'?s stroy the free silver coinage delusion. a ^al In les- than one week the Plumb plan to have the railroads owned and op-,"1Pn ' rated for th<> benefit of labor and pol-' itics has been damaged beyond possi-jf',p 01 bilitv of repair Mr. Plumb himself j ,prest was the most efficient agent in the demolishing of his own plan. When he told the house committee on In- I terstate commerce that the railroad brotherhoods men had just come Into; possession of evidence that 'the ra11-| way Interests, led by Wall street, s" I that were already beginning a campaign (jisril, #.o wreck the systems at the expense cars an easy way to rid the community of( the pests is to go to the bottom and break up the breeding places. It is w perhaps quite conservative to say that every time a tin can is thrown out from a residence, the breeding of a. dozen or more mosquitoes is made possible: the can catches water, the water stagnates in a comparative 't,a( short time, and thus is afforded onej' of the chief breeding places. Screen-,r) ' ing the homes is a safeguard of more ' or less merit when the screening 1?:Wl>r properly done, but it is also perhaps j tine that ninety per cent of the homes! UIU which are said to be screened are Im- an( properlv screened. Iw i The safest thing to do in a war on ' mosquitoes, and the war should be * arried on day after day, is to clean up. Ditches should be cleaned out,! cans should be hauled away or 101 ' ourned. all back lots and alleyways( thoroughly cleaned and kept clean.] If there are alleyways in this city over 1,10 which tlit> city tiuthorities have juris-! s'?bal diction, it is the lot of the city authorl-, shottl< ties to keep them clean. If there are, 'n ditches where water is permitted to'm,M,,i stand and stagnate, it is the business. ,'1? ' of the city to clean them out. In this co""t: way only can the mosquito nuisan -c ot 'h< be cnmbatted successfully While the i,n<' '' ? city is engaged in dragging the| "taiiy streets, it would he a good idea toi,on keep a careful eye on the ditches and Im>t>,ii scrape them out as well as the middle' t',neof the road.
