SANITATION AND HABITATION.
SANITATION AND HABITATION. A most interesting and instructive dis- cussion took place at the annual meeting of the Carnarvonshire Sanitary Authority on the question of Houses for the Working Classes. The subject, though on the face of it it appears to relate to only one class of the community in reality immediately and directly affects all. It is a question in which the whole community is almost as much concerned as the working population itself. r The Mayor of Carnarvon was to have opened the discussion, a duty, however, which in Dr Parry's absence was ably per- formed by Dr Griffiths. It must be ad- mitted that the committee at first seemed inclined to give the subject only a lukewarm reception. Mr Thomas Roberts, Aber, de- precated a purely academic discussion which Fven'T^T ?,° Practical results. wW SL ^°/ns' Portmad°c, was not what may be called enthusiastic in support of the action on the part of the local authorities, though he favoured efforts to- wards improving the sanitary arrangements of workmen's houses. As the discussion proceeded and developed it became evident that the important subject was being approached from two totally dis- tinct and independent points of view: one aimed at patching up existing dwellings, improving where and as far as possible, the sanitary arrangements of the present work- men s houses; the other aimed at nothing less than clearing away the present inade- quate and insanitary houses, and replacing them by houses built by the municipality and fitted up with a due regard to the re- quirements of sanitary science. Now there is undoubtedy much to be said for each of these views--but only inas- much as the question is one of local necessity or expediency. Take the case, for instance, of rural districts, such as Llevn. Here as was pointed out, there are a number of houses occupied by farm labourers and rural arti- zans which are a disgrace to civilization and a crime against common sense and common decency. And yet it would be practically impossible to demolish these for the simple and sufficient reason that if they were swept away they could not be replaced by others at a rent which the present occupiers could afford to pay. And when all is said and done regard must be had for the £ s. d. as- pect of thequestion. When the millenium comes, house property owners may perhaps be philanthropic enough to provide houses for their poorer neighbours at nominal rentals; but the millenium is not yet, and until it comes owners of house property are more human than humane, and as a rule think more of the interest on their own out- lay than of the interests of their tenants. Still, as was pointed out at the meeting, something may be done to ameliorate the conditions of habitation in these places with- out demolishing the houses and makino- the occupants homeless. Take the two great requirements of light and ventilation. Science h!as proved to demonstration that these are among the greatest enemies to consumption, and that tuberculosis in men and in cattle thrives and flourishes-if death can be said to ,flourish-where the animal be it the human animal or the domesticated quadruped, is constrained to breathe over and over again the same confined, vitiated air. Recognizing this fact our legislators have now made it incumbent that cattle kept as milk producers, should be housed with a due regard to the laws of health. And if the cow must be thus cared for, what about the cow's master's servant, the farm or agricultural labourer? Should his needs be overlooked and his requirements ignored ? Existing dwellings in country districts might without doubt, with very little trouble and at comparatively small expense be very much improved so far as the laws of simple sanitation are concerned. But when we come to the towns the whole conditions of the case are altered. As a rule in such places as Carnarvon and Bangor, at Festiniog, Llanberis, and Bethesda, the demand for house accommodation exceeds the supply, and much of the existing supply is, from its very nature, an ever-present source of danger to its surrounding neigh- bourhood. It may be, as Dr Griffith pointed out, that no actual case of infectious disease has occurred for years, and yet the house may be a veritable death trap, a fruitful breeding ground for pulmonary diseases, for rheumatism, ansemia, and other evils which help to swell the death rate. There is no remedy possible for many of these houses, they must, in the interest of the community at large, be utterly swept away. But in the towns the demolition of these rookeries wouiu, unless other suitable provision were made, simply intensify the evil by increasing the overcrowding, for people driven out of those conpemn-ed houses must find accom- modation somewhere. And it is just here that the difficulties of municipal authorities come in. Llandudno has grappled with it —and successfully. Its workmen's dwell- ings, letting at 6s a week are in furious de- mand. But then Llandudno was more favourably situated than most towns in the district. Carnarvon is boldly looking the question in the face at last-and when the promised improvement scheme is made public we shall be able to judge what Car- narvon's ideas of improvement really are. Bangor is just now too busily engaged in squabbles in the Council Chamber to think much of the needs of the working classes there. Conway and Portmadoc are begin- ing to coquet with the subject, and Pwllheli is preparing to follow suit. Altogether the whole district is at the present moment more or less exercised over the question. Let us hope that we shall have something more and better than mere talk over the business.
Troutla In the Fenrhyn Quarries
Troutla In the Fenrhyn Quarries STRIKE LEADER DISMISSED. A considerable dissatisfaction has been caused among the workmen of the Penrhyn quarries in consequence of the dismissal of some of the most prominent leaders at the recent strike. The latest dismissal is that of Mr Robert Davies, who was the chairman of the famous deputation that waited upon Lord Penrhyn at the time of the strike. When he went to the quarry as usual at the beginning of the quarry month, he was told by the bargain letter that he could not let him a bargain at the quarry this month, and that he need not come to th:e quarry any more, as his service were not required. Mr Davies naturally asked the reason why he was thus dismissed. The overlooker re- plied that he could give no reason, and that he was simply carrying out orders and in- structions given to Mm. The news created quite a sensation in the district, more es- pecially as the dismissed man is generally considered to be one of the most careful of the workmen employed at the Penrhyn quar- ries. It will be remembered that Mr Davies was the only man recognised as the men's representative by his lordship at the time of the strike, for all the correspondence which passed between the management and the men at the time was addressed "Robert Davies and six others." The action of the management in this case is looked upon with alarm, for this is the third of the men's Naders who have, been dismissed since the settlement. The first was Mr A. Roberts, who was one of the 71 suspended men iro whose support the strike oricwLXJ second was Mr W R omated, and the was the ihf JFE it £ rl| SU1dTS Se speakers wm in- tarv of n organising secre- WMiam?

Licensing Prosecution at Bangor
Licensing Prosecution at Bangor On Tuesday, before Mr Harry CW and o theSTf3^' S- M«ss> licensee inp!l f y mS H°te1' Aber' was sum~ monedi for permitting drunkenness on his premises on Monday, the 22nd ult. Mr S. K. Dew prosecuted on behalf of the police 1 a Prosecution it was alleged that a man ■™ed was seen to enter the hotel »n ir ° £ th.efate mentioned, and that he was under the influence of drink when he left. At &10U5\C°Urt TwiSSe was fined for having cT/rk and refusing to quit the hotel, several witnesses were called in support of fenr!a\r Z. Prosecuti°n- — For the de- onp r ^ornton Jones said on the day in question Whit Monday the Volunteer e campment at Aber had proved an attrac- tion to a large number of persons, and the hotel was more or less crowded all day. He contended that the prosecution had failed on account for the, movements of Twigge during four hours on the day in question. The bar- man and the assistant denied that Twigge was there in the afternoon, but that when lie came in the evening they refused to serve him, and eventually the man had to be ejected. The Bench dismissed the case. The "Daily News" says:—Sir William Harcom-t, as is well known, was once leader 17 ar' and on Tuesday he S2T nt LT SCeile cf his old conflicts, Not, of course, as counsel, but as witness be- Earl of C S ^ora'm^tee, which, with the the chair, is con- R^ilw^l k u yniEawr and Western Valleys lish wil a measure proposing to estab- maror Wfu c5'TmB3unication between Bryn- °n the North Western, and Nantyglo on the Great Wttetern. To suit his con- 1 le"ce the Committee had arranged! to a "e his evidence late in the afternoon. By force of old habit he seated himself at the counsel's table, but was soon called to the witness chair, the evidence cf the gentleman then occupying it being suspended for the purpose. Sir William testified in favour of the Bill, having been convinced of the need for the railway whcln he visited his consti- tuents lately; nor could tt.G cross-examina- tion of W Lewis Coward shake him: in the least, although that gentleman represented that the Marquis of Abergavenny, through whose estate the line is to pass, would suffclr in pocket by it. When Sir William had finished his evidence, thei attendant cere- moniously opened the peers' door for him to pass out, but he resumed his seat at the counsel's table, and watched the! proceedings with interest, recalling, no doubt, old associations.
