Id conversation yesterday or. A Turner Man made very Clear the urgent necessity for a appropriation of at least $200,000 for this Hospital not Only for maintenance Anil tut Al to that the Commonwealth May be purged of the offence of itself doing that which it prohibits others from doing and punishes others for doing. That offence is the pollution of streams a Peculiar situation. A Danville like other towns in Pennsylvania is required by the state department of health to provide itself with a is huge Plant Aud to Prepa plans therefor and for a proper sewer a Ystenic within a specified time. Nobody has any fault to find with this proposed improvement but it creates a Peculiar condition at Danville.
