City filter approved by commission in Cheyenne
The Cheyenne city commission accepted a new water filter after Captain Samuel A Smoke reported that government chemists found the water pure and free of contamination. The city aims to end typhoid fears with filtered water and milk inspections, while a sanitation campaign, led by City Physician Snyder and Officer Roger J Talbot, targets alleys and backyards for rubbish removal and disease prevention. Residents are urged to report unsanitary conditions to the city physician or police headquarters.
