ANKUGAL REPGRT OF HBALTH OFFICER We are Improving in Healthfalness Health Officer Smith Townshend presented to the Commissioners this morning his report | for the year ending June 30, 1s80. It contains 169 closely written pages of manuseript, treat- ing of twenty-five specific subjects, and over fifty explanatory tables, maps and charts ac- company It. After making the usual introductory remarks, the éccior says: “The year bas been one of unnsual health- fulness for our people. Entire immunity from disease in epidemic form has been en yored, and the aftiictions common to mankind liaye beva dealt out to us with a sparing hand. When comparison comes to be made with some of our sister cities of the union, we must feel truly thankful, and if the efforts of this department lave contributed In the least toward effecting the benign condition, cur humble labors have been amply recorapensed. As the recent census shows, our District largely increased in population, wealth and tn- custry; so do the records of vital statistics show that we are improving in healthfulness. Our mortality records are known to be absolutely correct. The figures of population on which we have been basing our ith rate during past Years are shown to have been too small. What is the history of many others of our cities? The estimated population {: shown, tn many fnstances to ha Deen far above apd peyond the act number of inhabita: and the death rat> thereby placed far below its reai standing, We have been rating the deaths in each one thou sand of our inhabitants higher than we should. and yet our morn has, in a large majority of instances, compat fiying false colors. We have been made to com- pare, too, with many cities which have not law. fo enable them to secure a fall and correct record of deaths, or It they have laws they are not properly entorced. We have been ac ‘used here of rating our population too high, and the good showing made heretofore has n ques- Uoned on this ground. ‘The truthfcensus puts that jibe to shame Sear, and shows that instead of rating too high ‘we were leaving ten thousand of our inhabitants out of the count and showing a death rate considerabiy higher than it actually was. Taking these tacts into consideration, there is certainly good rea- son for congratulation, amd we can laugh at the idle summer rumors manufactured by mouth ing correspondents regarding Washington's un- healthiulness,” He gives a synopsis of the work performed, as folic 5.557 nutsances reported and abate; H pound of meats, 15.942 bushels of fratt: d vegetables, 112,501 pounds of fish and 1!, “bushels of oysters condemned as untit for food | eXamlnations and reports made on 2,134 clu- zens’ complaints: orders fssued for burial at pubile expense in ases; examinations made to pitain local cause of disease in 112 eases; 2.140 Cfficial letters written; 2.534 offictal no: Uces tssued; 99 cases referred eto the attorney for prosecution under the health ordinances: animals impounded: 4 dead animals, 56 8-20 tous Of garbage and 2 barrels of night soll removed; 254 deaths referred to the corener for investigation; 4,720 permits tor burial issued and ‘the _ofli work of registry, compilation, « conducted. He notes that the drainage of alleys by the con- Struciion of sewers is ce pushed forward, and as this work ts accomplished the complaints ¢f foul oders wilt lessen. He notes that the removal of ashes is an important subject, and | ho provision having been made therefor by the authorities accumulations are to be found in alleys and on vacant lots, and they become receptacles of flith. He suggests that the au- thorities take steps looking to the removal of ashes especially from dwellings in the cellars of which they are often placed. Under the head of Defective Drainage he notes that many houses in the suburbs are polluted by emaua- Uons from undratned yards. Connections wit Sewers have been made in 19 cases during t year. Under the head Offensive Trades he notices soap factories and quotes trom hi. port of last year. In one case proceedings y taken In the Poltee Court, and the defendant took the case to the Supreme Court of t ; District fm certiorari and there {t remains, and we are as powerless as ever until some de- ciston 1s reached. Says: ‘Justice canuot See the necessity for pushing the matter to any conclusion. In about the same predicament stands another case coming under this head. The refining of asphalt fs an offensive trade, described at some length tn last year’s report, and one which bas caused no end of discomiort, if not fi} health, among our citizens. After an extended inquiry into the matter of the asphait refining nufsances, and careful investigation as to results therefrom affecting the health of | People, it was deemed best to at jeast require their removal from the most densely populated sections, where several now exist. Betng unable at that time to prosecute under the health ordinances, the perifes were brought before the grand jury and an indictment found against them. The indictment ends the s'ors here, a8 does the certtorart in the first case, the responsibility for continuance of the: nufsances rests 40! upon the shoulders of t health department.” In speaking of the garbage question he say *1do not approach iscussion of the 31h ject with any extra devree ot pleasure.

The Commissioners were | OL opinion that under existing circumsta they could not improve service by maklag change, and I was, of course, powerless to a further, Now, however, I think an opportuntiy is afforded for cecuring a change for the beter, and | would urge with all the earnestness pos: sibie that it be not allowed to era again.

He gives « >, Showing what has been done elsewhere 1a regard to the latter subject.

So far as the work of inspection in the markets and provisioa stores is concerned, I think our community is better rovected than any other in the country. Larger quantities of stale vegetables, fruits, «>, are congemped here than ip any other city of too, 23 well as the vegetarians bave their tnteres's looked ; but it ts before, and not after. it nas reached the market ttalls, that our mea’ supp y Should be examined.

This is 8 good one or its kind, ‘but falls far short of the requirements for a city hospital, on the modern plan. ‘ihe Providence Hospital fs a first-class institution, but it does not supply our wants. I trust you may be brought to see, as we de, the necessity for such an institution, and that.
