SEWERAGE.

We extract the following from strong ed
itoral in the st. Louis Globe'Democrat'
Will Dallas learn a lesson ere it is too late,
in the matter of this sewerage necessity and
this fearful malarial disease ? Already we
hear of some cases of ugly fevers in this
city. Now, who is going to shoulder the re-
sponsibility of the resultss Every rejecting,
serious mind is disguised with that attempted
wit of only ehervescent strength that makes
the subject of sickness to our dear ones
thing of mirth, and their possible death
matter of humor and ridicule. The Globe
Democrat says "The 1884 annual COM
mencement of the College of New jersey
last week, was sad and solemn affair
Within the last three months six out OF the
473 students in attendance at the college died
of maarial fever, and many others narrowly
escaped with their lives. The situation be-
came 80 serious that the class-rooms were all
closed, and the students who escaped intec-
ton we're sent to their homes. The cause OF
the disease and death which changed great
institution of learning into a hospital was
that greatest curse of modern times, defective
drainage. Tho drains from the college dormi-
tories and from couple of large hotels in
the vicinity Converged and emptied their sew
erage into cesspool about three hundred
yards from the college buildings. The out
let from this pool was higher than the inlets
and becoming choked, the poisonous gases
from the sewers were forced back into the
dormitories and hotels, loading the air with
the seeds OF death. These facts were not dis
covered until after the undertaken had made
several professional calls at the college, and
then an investigation showed only too clearly
thst the fever which threatened to depopulate
the institution was caused by sewer gas.
There is a painful commentary on our meth
DDS in all this. Hundreds OF young
men from all parts of the country
were assembled there 10 acquire such
knowledge as might be useful to them
in the battle of life. Skillful professors
taught them how the sages and warriors OF
past ages thought and talked and killed each
other, but no one warned them of the great
present danger which was sapping the very
| foundations of their own lives. There were
teachers there who could trace the root of a
word back through dozen discarded Ian
guages, and other teachers who could recon-
struct the entire frame Of Il forgotten fossil
from glance at one its toe-nails; but no
professor was wise enough to warn his pupils
against the poison they drewinto their lungs
with ever breath, until death after death COM
PEELED an investigation which proper atten-
ton to sanitary conditions should have rem
dered unnecessary. The curse of sewe' gas
is not confined to colleges, hotels and other
large buildings. 1t finds its way as well into
the small cottage us the largest mansion, and
its effects are as deadly in the one ms in the
other"

There are great many persons living in
the city who are laborirg under the false inn
preston that because the census shows a pop
ulation within the corporate limits of less
than 10000, that the free delivery service
will be discontinued. Such is not the case,
for the population either within or outside
the corporate limits does not effect the matter
in the least, for it is the revenue and not the
population that establishes the right of a city
10 the service. More mail matter is handled
by the postofficehere than at any other point
in the state, which shows that our people are
great letter writers. The revenue of the
Office here has paid $4,000 more up to the
present than it did the same time last year,
before the letter carrier service went into
effect.

Hilltown, Denton county, is the seat of
another sensation which has created CON

Friday step-daughter Of John Yates,
citizen of that place, was arrested on the
charge of committing infanticide. The
child was Legitimate and was born Thurs

THE New York Dramatic News is bitter

THE New York Dramatic News is bitter
upon Texas and tie people of Texas. 1t
contains some half dozen columns of inter-
views with actors and others, and says "the
acquittal of Currie is the most infamous of
all parodies," and offers willingly to pay the
expenses to the man who will avenge Porter
byputting piece of lead in Currie's carcass
1t thinks that "any Texan may kill theatre
cal person and be acquitted, but that if one
of theatrical troupe kill Texan he will be
convicted" that there is emo justice for II
northern man in southern state" 1t says
"there is perhaps not more popular man in
Texas to-day than James Currie; that Mar
shall, Texas, is lawless community, and
that the Texas press endorses the Texan
chivalry of the murderer as he quits the court
hero to thousands" 1t urges all people to
keep away from this infamous, revolver
raging state" And finally, in the plenitude
of its information, says: "a celebrated
southerner once declared that if he owned
hell and Texas, he would sell Texas and go
and live in hell. This is saying theatrical
people of all grades should bear in mind. II
is not safe state for them to go to. Neither
their life nor property is safe in it"

THE Globe Democrat says that the Asso-

past missed an opportunity to injure Gen.
Grants fame and reputation, sends to the
country report that he has expressed the
opinion that Hancock will be elected in

Gen. Grant has expressed no such opinion,
and we know that he has changed his mind
very much in the past six months if he be-
lieves that any Democrat could be elected.

Ex-GovERSoR HENDRICKS delivered a
speech at Indianapolis on Monday night
He was not advertised as one of the
speakers, but the Journal stated that if
certain charges made against Garfield by
Hendricks could be substantiated, he
(Garfield) would be disgraced man. If
they could not be, Hendricks would be
disgraced. The charges were that Gar
field had visited Louisiana, interviewed
witnesses and suggested additions to their
testimony and made certain suggestions
so as 10 make them cognizable by the
returning board. 1t was through him
that East Feliciana Parish was thrown
out. When he returned to Washington
lie was telegraphed from Louisiana,
"The work is done" After having thus
taken part in working up the case, inter
esting himself in the preparation and
procuration of affidavits, and approving
of the infamous work done by the return
ing board, he accepted place as juror
on the electoral commission and gave q
verdict on questions which he was largely
instrumental Ill bringing about.
A letter from DIR. j. NJ. A. Jewett de
MED Garfield's completely in the Louisi-
ana matter Hendricks took this letter
asa text and iterated the charges made
IN his opening speech. He spoke with
unusual vigor and eloquence. He quot.
ed the testimony of Garfield and others
to snbstantiate his charges. The speech
was greeted with the heartiest enthusi
asm. Mr.. Hendricks directed that copy
of the speech be sent to the Journal, the
paper which stated that if Hendricks
could substantiate his charges against
Garfield the latter would be disgrGced,
but it refused to publish it. Very likely
it was too damaging to the candidate
whose morals it discussed.

JUDGE TRUMBULL speech in Illinois
lately, is one of the finest and most con-
vincing political arguments ever called
forth by political controversy. 1t is all
array of incontestable facts, review of
the pretentious claims of the republican
party with an unanswerable refutation.
The claim OF the republicans that they
put down the rebellion is successfully
denied by comparing the vote received
by Lincoln in 1860, with the number of
troops contributed by the northern states.
The number of soldiers was greatly in
excess of the number of votes cast for
Lincoln, while sufficient number of
republicans were left at home to success
fully manage the politics of the several
states. The credit of abolishing slavery
is also given to the people of the north
without regard to party.
Judge Trumbull discusses very fully
and very clearly the part taken by Gar
field in the proceedings of the electoral
commission. He goes on to show that
Garfield explained that certain omissions
on the part Of the Tilden electors dis
qualified them to act. But the very
things w.hieh they omitted were perform
ed by the electo,rss Of Florida, and still
Garfield voted for his party 40 a9alnst night
and his own sense of justice. In FIorlt.e,,
the Legislative, the elective and the Judi
cial departments of the state had declared
in favor of the Tilden electors. But
Garfield voted against receiving the votes
of men whose right to act was thus forti-
fed. The signature of the executive ST
the time the state canvass was made. was
deemed essential in the case of Florida
and Louisiana, bat this signature was
on the other side in Oregon. No one
can read this resume of the proceedings
of the electoral commission without feel
ing satisfied that Garfield is purjurer.
A number of his other public acts are
reviewed for the purpose of showing his
lack o. moral courage.
