PUBLIC HEALTH LEGISLATION IN 1904.
The year 1904 was signally uneventful in so far as Public Health
Legislation was concerned. With the exception of the Expiring Laws
Continuation Act, 1904, which extends the operations of the Vaccination
Act of 1898 until December 31st, 1905, there was no Public
Health measure of importance which affects the Borough.
