What Portland Needs.

Portland doubtless needs many things but
perhaps its most important need is Board
of Health. In view of the great mortality
which has been noted, owing to the preva-
lence of so-called '.flth Diseases, of which
scarlet fever is one of the most dreaded, it
behooves all to seriously consider what ac
ton ought to be taken with regard to the
sanitary condition of our city. A careful
perusal of the report of Drs. Gerrish and
Ring, made about year since, will show
that we are surrounded ON all sides with
danger, and, as we have no proper health
officer, new dangers are all the time accu-
mulating. For instance, few nights
since, one of our citizens, while TAX
ing horseback ride through the oaks
recently acquired by the city, while ap-
preaching the green point near the mill
pond, noticed a terrible odor. Upon
drawing near, large deposit of corrupting
matter was seen, evidently brought from the
tannery and piled up there on the grass, TO
get rid of it. From the appearance of the
ground thereabouts, this has been the Gus
lOUl lOI u lUliS ICb Wdo IL
would not be likely to be noticed, although
not far from the foot of State street, and so
might lie there and corrupt the air for
months, without being discovered. When
the wind was from the north or west the
foul and dangerous odors from this decaying
mass of scraps of hides with adhering flesh,
would be blown over the city with the other
foul doors coming from the mill pond and
tannery to the discomfort and danger of our
people. Upon inquiry it was found that
even to those who frequent the neighbor
hood and are supposed to be familiar with
it, the existence of this nuisance was un-
known. If we had competent Board Of
Health to manage and direct the sanitary
affairs of the city such nuisance could not
exist day. The present city Govern
ment has an opportunity to perform most
important work in this direction and by
performing it fearlessly, will win the ap-
proval of all who have the welfrre of the
city at heart.

Queer Democracy.

1t is queer Democracy for the doctrines of
jackson to be ignored and those of Solon Chase
followed by what calls itself Democratic
party. 1t is queer Democracy which indorses
such proceedings as those of last falls attempt
to count out the elected officers in Maine. 1t
is queer Democracy which willfully, continu-
ously and with malice aforethought ignores its
best, ablest and most respected men and trusts
its cause to the inexperienced and untried. For
example, here are the Maine Democrats. They
have Just taken one more step, and very de-
cided one it is toward the full acknowl-
edgement with them, principle is noth-
ing, and success all. When their new
leaders, Messrs. Torrey and Jennings and the
rest, agreed with the Greenbackers that the
two parties should hold their conventions ON
the same day, and that whoever the latter par
ty chose to nominate should be iDdorsed by the
mitted by telegraph from Bangor to Portland,
it would seem as if they had done all that
could reasonably be expected of an old and
dignified party, which for long years absolute
ly controlled the politics of Maine, but it
seems this was not enough. Now the State
committee has announced that its convention
will net be held in Portland, but in Bangor,
on the same day as the Greenback convention
and no farther from it than from Faneuil Hall
to our Suffolk county court house. This facil-
itates negotiations. This makes it easier for
man who controls few votes to put them
where they will do the most good-to him, at

SENATOR CARPENTERS law partner, Mr.
Coleman, says the dislike to Secretary Sher-
man ''comes out of his rigorous and unnec-
essary opposition to everybody who appears
before the Treasury having bill against the
United States. He has no right to rebuff
any of the Governments creditors, who are
themselves part of the taxpaying people,
and entitled to ask for their money without
insult, and to have an equitable examina-
ton of the case. The number of people
who have to come before the Treasury is
very great, and Mr.. Sherman looks at every
one of them, good and bad, as if he sus-
pected his case and himself" A few more
complaints of this sort will make Senator
