AGAINST ALL THE WORLD.

Somewhere, on large and exhaustive maps
a fiy-speck within the green blotch repre-
senting Tennessee informs the eye that there
is in the world and Tennessee such place as
Union City. Beyond this feeble, but stead
fast authority, there wasn't much evidence
that such place as Union City existed until
the country rose in arms and quarantined
against suffering Memphis a few days ago,
and Union City upheaved with enthusiasm
and issued quarantine notice too, by
way Of showing that she recognized
the situation. The deep bass OF
Galyeston's declaration; the sonorous bay OF
Cincinnati, and the chorus Of assorted barks
from other towns Ii the vicinity. were fairly
split by the delighted yelp Of fluffy little Union
City, who, for once ia her excitable little life
was able to do like big folks, and was self
tickled nearly into Commissions at the lib

INTERSTATE QUARANTINE,

and the reappearance there OF the scourge,

| To quarantine on account OF these would be
sheer folly. New Orleans took a proper stand
with regard to Memphis, while Galveston,
foolishly quarantining against New Orleans,
where there has not been and Is not single

lous fright or q wanton desire to cut her own

RED RIVER TREIGHTB.

Capt Aiken Ut the Red River Pool Line, re-
turned from Alexandria yesterday, where he
met delegates to the freight convention from
the different parishes along Red river. The
convention prepared freight tariff at rates
one-third less than the present, which the
Transportation Company accepted, and will
work under In the future. This gives the peo-
pie cheaper freighta than they have ever had.
In fact 1t is said to be the cheapest freight
tariff made to any tributary trade out OF New
Orleans
These facts we commend to the Constitu-
tional Convention The trade of New Orleans
was built Up by our river craft, and
is now very largely dependent upon
them. Many portions Of the State
also depend upon river steamers for their
trade and business generally. and yet g uni
form system of persecution, we might almost
say blackmail, has been pursued toward the
steamboat interests by the State and by
nearly every river town and city In the State
Id the shape Of wharfage and other fees. In
deed, 1t seems az II the purpose was to de-
strOy our river trade It Is time that this
lnwiHe policy was supplanted by more lib
eral and rational one
The action taken by the freight convention
at Alexandria shows the determination
of our steamboat owners to keep w
with the age and give the people 81 The
State cheap freights and all possible facilities,
They should be met In similar spirit. me
DEMOCRAT has already recommended that
the Constitutional Convention exempt steam
boats from the heavy taxation to which they
have been subjected, and That the wharf fees
be reduced to sum only sufficient to provide
revenue FOR maintaining the wharves
The question OF relieving the boats
from taxation will probably bt
considered by the Convention to-day. and

why should We pursue this wise and liberia
course toward our railroads and levy heavy
unjust and oppressive exactions upon on

i to our commerce as are the railroads?

On July 10, the board OF health OF Calves
ton met to discuss the question whether q
quarantine should be declared against this
city or not. The resolutions In favor OF q
quarantine were offered by DIR. Watts. They
declared that whereas, the fever existed In
Memphis, and that town had not been quar-
antined by New Orleans; and. whereas, the
Memphis fever had been developed by germs
which had hibernated there from last year,
germs that might be alternating In New Or
leans; therefore 1t was resolved that New Or
leans be quarantined against. The resolll-
tions were extremely lengthy, and were @ full
argument OF the case In BRIEF the Calves
ton board argued that New Orleans might
have few sporadic cases OF fever. and that
1t was necessary to protect their city against
the importation Of some of these. Every
person from New Orleans was to be refused
admttance into Galveston. except satisfae-
tory proof, In the form Of q sworn affidavit
made before a notary public that he has not
been in New Orleans within twenty days.
| The original resolution fixed the quarantine to
begin July 10. This. however, was SUISSE
guently modified and the date made for
July 81.
! Mr.. Lnuve a member OF the board, offered
q substitute to the effect that unless this city
at once quarantined Memphis, Galveston
would quarantine her.
Tho argument OH this substitute showed
conclusively the animus and desires of Gal
weston. 1t was not, stated one member Of the
the board, for Galveston to eoerce New Or
leans by threats. All that she could do was
| to RECOGNIZES the fact that there was free In
tercourse between New Orleans and Memphis
and protect herself by quarantine. It would
be wrong to threaten New Orleans, but it was
right to quarantine her.
Mr.. Lauve energetcally defended this city
| from the attacks made on it. The authorities
had exerted themselves, and had, he declared
ut heavy expense greatly improved the SAM
tary condition Of the city. They had prom.
Used to let the world know when yellow fever
appeared, and he believed they would keeI
their promise.
Despite his efforts, however, his substitute
was voted down, and the original quarantine
Ing resolution was adopted with only one dis
senting vote, Mr.. Lauve's.
