Hitherto that bUZZing little insect, the mosquito,
has been regarded as one of the annoying re-
min1ers OF Mother Ewes fall, when she took the
forbidden fruit The idea that danger lurked In
the sharp sting OF the insect seemed to have
entered the minds OF any of it's millions OF victims
until very recently. modern scientist declares
that careful investigation on his part proves the
mosquito To be pestiferOus and positively danger
GUS The theory OF this genius Is that mosquito,
having Toasted upon the poisoned blood OF
diseased victim, may implant the germ Of that
disease in the next person in whose flesh it's beak
or bill is Inserted; that OF the diseased blood
may escape from the mosquitoes beak and mingle
with the blood OF the second victim thus implant-
Ing poison that viii corrupt the whole system.
There may be something ia this theory, but quite
possibly Il is the ingenious suggestion of en-
terprising dealer in mosquito bars.

The cities OF New York and Brooklyn appear to
have an enormous eNphant ON their hands In the
East river bridge. The structure, not yet COM
pleted, has cost over sl3,OC0COO, and no man con-
nected with the enterprise is willing to say that it
will not require as much more money to finish it.
To make very bad matter worse, doubt is ex-
pressed as to whether the structure will be secure
even If finished at additional cost of millions.
Miscalculatons were made as TO the quantity OF
steel necessary for supporting certain sections,
and other errors In estimates have been tiiscov-
cred 1t is announced that at least one thousand
more tons OF steel will be needed in bracing and
strengthening certain portions This will, Of
course, add TO the weight OF the superstructure
and thus lessen the chances OF safety and security
Even suspicion that the structure is not entirely
secure is bound to operate against its usefulness,
as thousands viii, after the bridge is completed,
prefer the ferry to taking any risk.

The urgent need OF a double track on the Balti-
more Potomac road Is shown by the fact that on
saturday the whole OF the travel and traffic that
busy line was suspended for several hours I'm conse-
fsf,nee OF the collision OF a freight train with
construction train. The PENNSYLVANIA road is so
perfectly equipped as awhole, and its management
- eiterprsing that it is matter OF surprise that
me snort but important link in its connections,
between Washington and Baltimore Is allowed TO
remain year after year supplied with but a single
track

Is there not getting to be Just little too much of
the Garfield Memorial business? Trees that ex-
pend their vital forces in giving out a gorgeous
display Of blossom in the spring do not generally
bear much or very good fruit at harvest time Thus
there is great danger that between the efforts in
behalf of Memorial Universities, Hospitals,
Churches, Libraries, Educational Funds, MOnu-
ments, Statues, Fountains, BuSts, Medals, and
what not projected in all parts of the country few
or none will ever be completed, or, If finished, prove
to be worthy their purpose. Such course is not
possible perhaps, on account of local ambitions and
JealOusieS, but 1t is none the less to be regretted
that all the funds contributed with these laudabe
ends in view cannot be consolidated and applied to
one or two suitable objects In this way, and in
this way alone, results might be secured which
would be at once credit to the country and a fit
ting memorial OF its late hOnOred official head. II
this cOnsummaton were once well assured, there
would De little or trouble or delay in raising all
the means necessary for the purpose. AS things
are going now, it looks as though money might
come In slow and be frittered away without AIDE
quate fruits

The recent developments in relation to the past
administration of the star route mail service,
incident to the alleged dismissal OF First Assistant
Postmaster General Tyner, have intensified public
interest in the pending examination, and there is
a general demand that the most sweeping and
thorough investigation shall be had The senti-
meBt OF the people as made manifest is that no
man shall be screened, no matter what may have
been his position or station Mr.. Tyner is
quoted as saying that he submitted his report
condemniug the star service system then I'm vogue
to Postmaster General Key, and that it was also
shown To President Hayes: that Mr.. Key advised
the suppression of the document because It's pub
IcatiOn would make trouble. Enough has been
developed to show that 1T only requires deter
mined investigation to bring out all the dark
secrets of the star route ring and its mismanage-
ment AS 1t was the peoples money that was thus
wasted they have right at least to know who is re-
responsible, and Postmaster General James no
doubt intends that they shall be gratified He has
displayed nerve enough in the past in dealing
with this question to give assurance that he will
go on to the end In the right way.

In conversation with a prominent citizen OF one
OF the southern states, who called upon him to
talk OF national affairs Secretary Blaine is said
have stated that the last talk he held with the
late President Garfield was In reference to the
complete reconciliation OF the two sections" His
visitor was very agreeably impressed with the
Secretary, who expressed, the story goes, In
tention OF making tour south this winter III Mr..
Blaine adheres to this Intention he will probably
give other Presidential aspirants some cause for
apprehension He will undoubtedly make thou
sands OF friends In that section. He invariably at
tracts all with whom he comes I'm contact Going
there as a distinguished citizen OF the republic,
who has rendered the nation Invaluable service,
and being out OF Office he will be at full liberty to
receive all attention the people choose to pay him.
He has, as a public man, always MANIFESTED
lively interest in the material development OF the
southern states and has voted for every measure
coming before him, having the Improvement or
benefit OF any part OF the south for It's object He
would be warmly welcomed there as the prime
minister OF the dead President, who so earnestly
desired and labored for sectional reconciliation.

"Patronizing" A Paper.

Wctindin our esteemed contemporary,
the Boston Herald, some talk about
I" ceasing to patronize newspaper pa
tronage.' 1t is a stupid phrase. Wedc
not consider anynody that %patronizes ii
paper is under any obligations to any
II who either purchases a copy or in
serts an advertisement. IF it is a wise
and sound newspaper, the purchaser or
advertiser gets the full value of his mo-
ney and the ccOunt even between them.
The only situation in which the word
patronage can tie properly used in such
Il case, is where the newspaper is mean
and worthless, and tho ma pays for hi,
copy or for his advertisement more than
the thing is really worth. In that sort
OF circumstance there may be patronage
in the base II of the wOrd-the sense
in which the Herald employs it. The
idea of patronage contains in it ONE
thing Of scrvility. 1t has no place in
the American Republic. 1t ought to be
