Excerpt from The Jones' Falls Question: Hygiene and Sanitary Matters But before we Offer the suggestion, a word may be said in View of the Objection, if it be urged that it is too late to make any change, that the subject has been maturely considered and a. Plan resolved upon. To this the answer is, that although it is that a plan has long since been adopted, not A spade OF earth has been thrown UP under it. Not a stone has been removed, nor has any man's property been condemned in furtherance of the plan. It can never BE too late to review our course whilst it is possible to amend it; and we beg leave to hint here that a plan Of improvement which, notwithstanding it has had all possible encouragement from favoring legislation, and that halts so long before it shows any advance, ought not prima facic to be assumed to be so Wise and well-considered as to exclude the presentation and consideration Of others.
