It is impossible that the existence of such an establishment can be passed over. without & searching enquiry on the part of the Government. The keeper will of course be prosecuted for manslaughter-- ̈ if indeed a certain facetious resident does not report it as pig-alaughter-and will we hope have his inhumanity re- warded by wearing those decorative iron bracelets which so admirably become the dark style of beauty with which one chain gang abounds. Buta serious ques.. tion arises as to who was responsible for this state of affairs. Was it the In- spector of Nuisances, or the Registrar General, or the Surveyor General, or the Colonial Surgeon Aro all or any of these officials to be blamed We can not any; but it seems odd that with such searching powers as are conferred by recent ordinances the existence of such a den as this should
have hitherto permitted. It will probably
been
be urged by the officers we have named it may be truly-that they have not sufficient powers to interfere unless an information is laid. If this be so the greater is the necessity, which we very recently pointed out, for a Municipal Council authorised to deal with anch nuisances. We learn indeed that mes- stippress the horrors detailed at the sures have been taken to immediately
Taza hospital. The patients have been removed to the Civil Hospital, the place is being thoroughly cleaned; future ad- missions have been forbidden and staps are going to be taken to found a real Chinese hospital" More than that, an inquest is now being held by the Gover nor's orders upon the body of one of the victims. But all this does not affect our argument of the necessity for a Municipal Council to keep a constant look-out over.
