Rensselaer Republican, Volume 16, Number 43, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 July 1884 — Is Cholera Coming? [ARTICLE]

Is Cholera Coming?

I would like to see wood, manure, brush, tip cans and all kinds of garbage removed from our streets and alleys. I would like to see the weeds and grass cut and taken ofT the streets ( alleys and sidewalks. I would lffce to know that those “awful odors’’ emenating from the old mill race, just above the mill, and the many piles of manure and other nuisances of minor importance had been abated, suppressed, consumed or removed from the town of Rensselaer. The B oard of Health, town Marshal or both are failing to enforce the town ordinances. It is time it was done. We need a dozen or two- old gnynbleis in Rensselaer to “spur up” am! have the work performed. T 7: S.MEtLER.
