It Is, however, timely on account of tlio proximity of the Legislature mid the necessity for the enactment of a law that will Mick. It should bo possible for a law to be framed that will piotect tho resi dential districts from tho cheap lodg-Irp-house of Ill-repute and at the same time give nllc)tjzeus and resi dents their Vonstllu'ttdnm rights.

And it will not bo if the Territory requires that every tenement house erected shall havo ample. light and air space, and bo reputably constructed.
