Of the laconic Evarts, the ArGtdnclC
saws, i object The year Of 1878 was
a year Of great calamity for Memphis.
1t was regarded by the world as a visi-
tation of divine wrath. 1t was 2 case
OF nobody to blame The world re-
sponded generously. Nearly three
quarters of n million of dollars were
literally poured upon Memphis TO re-
lieve the sick and feed the hungry.
After the pestilence had passed away
there was inquiry into the sanitary
condition of Memphis. This inquiry
developed the fact that the violation
OF all sanitary laws for years had
u plague. Providence had been I'M
justly accused. 1t was the persistent
neglect of its own citizens that had
made pest house of Memphis. In
der this belief it was expected by the
people who had so bounteously dis
pensed their charity that Memphis
would at once put its house in order
to prevent the recurrence of another
epidemic. Instead of fulfilling that
expectation, nothing was done, And
again is Memphis brought face to face
with d great calamity. The unani-
nous verdict of the people of the world
Will be that Providence can no longer
| be made the scapegoat for the Men,
phian lack of cleanliness. and the
Memphian himself must shoulder the
responsibility of his sins of omission.
Now, again, must there be an appeal
made for charity to the world at large :
Are we to be locked upon in the light
of perpetual paupers Begging, yea,
still begging! Well, if begging it must
be, try our own people first. Tennes-
| see is a great State, with over million
inhabitants. Tennessee is not as rich
as New York or Massachusetts,, and
yet is amply able to take care of the
10000 Memphian destitute for the next
sixty days. Appeal to the people oil
Tennessee, and if they do not respond
appeal to the Governor and the
Governor will appeal to the Legisla
ture." .s
