IT Is HARDLY worth while to reply
10. the many objections that are
Matched up and published to destroy
The confidence of our people in the ac-
tiEity and ability OF the physicians
controlling the Board of Health and
the hospital for small pox patients.
It.iss very easy matter to raise COM
plants and to secure statements from
former patients, and as easy to give
such statements q false coloring that
they were not intended to be SO used.
Patients who have been treated until
CURED in the hospital state that they
could not have received better treat.
Hsnt and that they were furnished
with every comfort and desire while
thers--that they could not have had
such treatment at their own homes
and express themselves in the mos
grateful language and this is corrobo
rated by many others, both ont and in
the institution. It is scandaloua
shame that the character of the city
and its authorities should be thus mis-
represented and slandered, to the In.
jury OF trade and commerce as we'll
and all because of partisan prejudic,
and hate.

3 a BOOMERANG TO THE hEPUBLI-
CAN PARTY.-The effect of the course
pursued by the New York Republi-
cans upon that party in that State has
long been an interesting question.
But no one has attempted to give an
answer to it, except in surmises one
Of which We quoted yesterday from a
Republican paper. That paper, how
ever, only went 30 far as to say that
Mr.. Conkling's friends were very
strong In New York, and would be
able to carry the nominations at the
primary elections this fall, and that
this would cause trouble and might
result in defeat. We have now a brief
uttsrance from the Conkling side,
which we find in Republican paper
not favorable to that Stalwart states
mans views. 1t is published to show
the other section of the city what is
+, TO be expected from what it terms
sConkling Republicanism," and we
/. quota it as follows:
aa"What will Conkling do now 2''
asked an Albany correspondent of one
: Of lConkling's closest and most iDti-
s-nAta friends.
"He will do nothing at present."
l. was the response. "If he should con-
clude to take his revenge in that way
y would be effective, and bring the
administration to his feet. His friends
. will vote the Democratic ticket this
year, or mot vote at all. You will see
!. what you will see. There are 300, 900
Conkling Republicans in this State,
and the parties are about even. One
In five Of them is an active politician,
who feels insulted at the wrongs heaped
; on Mr.. Conkling. That will give the
Democrats the State by $4,000 ma
jority, and don't you forget it,"
j The State Of New York is Democratic
to the core If the people are allowed to
vote, and there is no division in the
party. Mr.. Conkling has heretofore
been the great manager of the Republl-
can party. He has now only to with.
hold his efforts and the Republican party
:, will receive q rout that will be memor-
i able, and add to Mr.. Conkling's tame,
and establish his claim to consideration.
But It Ia said In the above paragraph
That Mr.. Conkling's friends will vote the
Democratic ticket and that the Demo-
Gratis will carry the State by $4,000 ma
: jority. Should this be SO 1t would ena-
bic the Democrats to district the State
~ accordance with the constitution and
d 10 give TO each district fair and square
: representation destroying the system OF
gerrymanderlng that enabled the Re.
publicans to carry the Legislature when
10 they failed in the State by ma)orities
9 ranging from 10000 to $4,000. Thi
would give the Democrats an equa
chance In the State at all subsequen
elections, and Of course be a result iav
orable TO the popular voice and rene1
the right Of the people to change thei
rulers by, the will of the majority.

RECENT Developments point with
great certainty to a new motive
power that i'm time will do away
with steam. We mean the applica-
tion of electricity when the plans
are perfected to apply it to electric
machines. 1t has been successfully
applied on several railroads in Eur
ope and found to be a success. 1t
is claimed for this power that it will
run trains a thousand miles away

The Herd LAW.

Every few days the writer hereof
receives communications from diff
erent parts of the State in reference
to the amendment introduced by
him at the late session of the legis-
lature, and to save trouble in reply
ing to each separately, will say ::
The supreme court last fall, in case
brought up from Dodge county,
rendered a decision, entering into
the minuti8 of our laws touching
this subject, and deciding that an
action in the nature of trespass for
damages could not be maintained
for pasturing on uninclosed, uncul-
tivated, wild prairie land.
The very substance of the decision
is contained in this paragraph
"From these considerations | come
to the conclusion that the principle
of the common law of England,
which has treated every entry upon
another's land seven by cattle, un-
less by the owners leave, as an
injury and wrong, for satisfaction of
which an action of trespass will lie,"
is not applicable to uncultivated,
unenclosed lands of this state"
This being the declared law the
amendment to the herd act sought
to exte nd the definition of cultivated
lands to include all lands enclosed
by strip not less than one rod in
width, plowed once year."
The amendment as introduced by
the writer was to include within the
definition of cultivated lands call
lands enclosed by a plowed strip
not less than one rod in width, kept
in a plowed condition, free from
grass and weeds" but this was
changed in the senate to the blowing
once a year, and thus the bill was
passed.
