Freezing Yellow Fever Germs.

DR.. Bushrod w. James, in letter to
the Philadelphia Ledger, suggests the
prOpriety of employing artificial cold
for the destruction Of yellow fever
germs. He says: Let every quaran-
tine station have a ward or room capa-
Ole of holding several patients, more
or less, as the exigencies may demand,
so arranged that ventilation may be
maintained exclusively through venti-
lators and by means Of small ante
rooms with spring closing doors, and
then have no mode Of entrance or exit
to the ward except through the ante
room. The aute-room should be kept
at the same low temperature, or even
lower than that in the ward, so that the
temperature in the latter may not be
raised by the opening and closing OF
doors by the attendants, nor any OF the
disease-producing germs escape before
they afe thoroughly subjected to the
low temperature and destroyed. The
ward and ante-rOom must be kept at a
temperature not higher than 25 deg.
Fahrenheit. Keep the patients COM
Portable by a sufficient amount Of bed
clothing; and every thing that goes
from the room, such as clothing, excre-
tions, all emanations, ETC., must be ex-
posed a sufficient length of time to the
cold. This will kill the poisonous germs
or reproducing cause, and prevent, as
far as the cases under treatment are
concerned, any risk of the disease
spreading. If patients can not bear so
much cold during treatment an adjoin-
ing warmer room can be made, with no
mode Of access or ventilation except
through the cold room, and every thing
going out Of the warmer room must be
allowed to remain sufficient length Of
time to get rid of the contagion. If no
attendant occupies the ante-rooms the
degree of cold can be kept near zero, in
order the more quickly to destroy all
the disease-producing agencies"

that the flesh Of the halibut did not

THE. STATE CONVENTION.

The western part of the State OBJ
lects to State conventions being held at
Eureka. because of the heavy expense
it entails on delegates travelling so far
east. The Sentinel. commenting on
this argument. remarks that 1t does mt
cost western delegate any more to
travel from Reno to Eureka than it
does an eastern delegate to travel from
Eureka to Reno. Now, to obviate fur
Their discussion on this subject, by
giving east and west no cause to COM
plain. the Democratic State Central
Committee should name Winnemucca
as the place fon holding the State Con-
vention. 1t is centrally located. being
about the center of the State east and
west. The fare from Carson or Eureka
to this place is exactly the same; hence
neither section can complain of in-
justice or hardship. There is, suita-
Die hall here for the purpose. and our
hGiel accommodations are second to
none in the State. 1t is the half way
ground between the west and great
east, and if the committee is disposed
to deal fairly with all sections, it will
be selected as the place for holding the
next Democratic Convention by a
unanimous vote.

SENATORIAL CANDIDATES.

The Eureka Sentinel is endeavoring
to bring General Thomas III. Williams
out as the Democratic candidate for
United States Senator from Nevada.
1t says in substance that Williams has,
what the Democracy of this State needs,
plenty of money, and that Democrats.
who do not like him personally. would
rally enthusiastically to his support if
it became obvious that through his
Efforts and coin the s tie could be
carried. We are of the opinion that
the Sentinel mistakes the temper of the
people of Nevada, Democrats and Re-
publicans. on the Senatorial question.
They want no more citizens of Callfor-
mia to represent Nevada in the Senate
OF the United States. Sharon has
proved to be such bitter pill that it
would be impossible to get them to
take another Californian, no matter
how heavily gold or silver plated he
might be, for Senator. If there are no
residents of this State capable ofreprs-
senting it in the Senate, better let the
election 60 by default. In such an
svent the people would fare. no worse
than they have been served by Sharon.
The SILVER STATE suggested some
time since, that the Democrats endorse
John P. Jones for reelection upon con-
dition that the Republicans at their
county and State conventions demand
the resignation OF Sharon. This course
is not likely to be pursued by the en-.
gineers of either party; yet we do not
hesitate to say that such an arrange
ment would be approved by two thirds
of the voters of the, State. Jones has
served his constituents faithfully, while
Sharon has done nothing whatever as
Senator from Nevada except, we sup
pose. to draw his salary for services
never rendered We agree with the
Sentinel. that the Democracy of this
State needs money, and we should be

COMMON PLEAS COURT

Judge Conant assumed the Bench on Monday
and proceeded with business. During the last
week quite anumber of cases have been dismissed
and the term thus far, under the rulings of Judge
Meyer, has successfully disposed of a large num-
Der of cases, although but few jury trials have
been had. On Saturday last John Pontius VS.
County Commissioners ct. al was Opposed Of
Trial to Court and decree setting forth that Coun
ty Commissioners did not comply with the several
statutes of the State in notifying citizens and tax
payers Of Stark county, of their intention to erec
and build bridge over the THsCarawas river al
Massillon, and in notifying contractors Of the time
and place where proposals would be received fol
such bridge, but that there was no fraud or cOllu
sion on the part of any Of the defendants in the
transaction. Defendants are therefore enjoned
from building said bridge under the contracts
and are taxed with the costs in the case.
