II Is many years now since New York last
lay IN the awful shadow Of the pestilence.
Our older city readers have not forgotten the
"ChOlcra years. who that lived through
them ever will ? But many Of our younger
readers have grown up to manhood and
womanhood without knowing, save from
books and hearsay, what that experience is.
They read the dispatches from the fever
stricken cities OF the Southwest with sym
pathy indeed, but not with any vivid sense
OF the misery and despair which these daily
reports OF new cases and deaths represent.
But even these younger readers Of The
Sun should try to bring home TO themselves
as well as they can this terrible suffering,
and the duty resting upon us OF generous
and continuous relief. Here is newspaper
fresh from Memphis where 95 persons died
Of yellow fever on Saturday, and the physi-
clans reported 1913 new cases. In good days
this Memphis Appeal is n large four-page
paper. 1t has shrunk now 10 n single sheet
In one paragraph its readers are informed
that the wife of one of its two remaining
editors having been stricken down with the
fever, the other Mr.. j. NJ. HEATING, is
"alone on duty and that he will be glad of
ANY assistance citizens can render him by
sending him local information" In another
paragraph it Is announced that all but one
OF the printers are down with the fever or
have left the city, and that the one printer
left has to spend good deal Of his time in
caring for the sick at the Printers Inlrm-
airy. The other leading newspaper Of the city,
the Ardldnche Is even worse of, not having
an editor left Every paragraph but one in the
editorial column Of the Appeal Is about the
fever. The special dispatches are about
the fever. The column Of "pcrsonas" is
wholly given up to the latest news from the
sick rooms Of prominent citizens who have
been seized by the fever The special no.
ticcs relate 10 ne fever Even in the adj
vcrtiscments it Is constantly alluded to:

The Vermont Bolt.

The election in the Third Congressional
District OF Vermont deserves notice by poll
ticians who imagine that any person who
gets the regular nomination Of his party
can get its full vote. No voters in the Union
would be more likely to afford an example
OF fidelity to this od-fashioncd doctrine
than the Republicans OF Vermont. So over
whclming have been their maioritics since
the party was organized in 1854, that the
Democratic vote might about as well have
been set down as scattering.
In 1876 the Republican majority in the
Third District of Vermont was jiJo This
was below the usual majority. II generally
reaches G.o00. This present year the Rcpub-
licau Convention made a nomination which
good many Republicans did not like, and
they boltod it and set up candidate of
their own. The Grccnhackcrs endorsed
him. Tho Democrats nominated their can
didatc a. usual
Mari; the result The regular Republican
candidate got G.d)O votes. The Democratic
candidate got 500. The candidate Of the
boiling Republicans and Grccnbackcrs got
9l00
This is an excellent year for holtng OH
noNious nominations. We commend the
Vermont lesson 10 the consideration Of the
managers of all parties.

Far into the West where the sun goes down,

The Old Machine.

After the investigation Of 1874 by n Joint
Committee Of the Senate and the House Of
Representatives,, the Ring Government at
Washington was abolished, as an inevitable
result OF the exposure Of its enormous
frauds and corruption. A careful estimate
contained in report TO the Senate made
the cost Of the three years OF vulgar and
dcspotic rule Of Boss SHEPHERD and his
crew sum up fifty millions Of dollars in
round numbers, between debt, damages,
and taxes, the great burden Of which fell on
hundred and thrty-one thousand people
in the District OF Columbia.

scotched by this legislation, it was not

its deposcd chief, and he gave him a certlll-
cate Of character in utter contempt Of pub
lie opinion and Of the evidence taken before
the Joint Committee, by nominating him at
the head Of the now Commission. But the
Senate could not swallow that dose, and the
Boss received but six votes for conflrma-
ton, four Of whom were carpet-baggors
