The National Anti. Monopoly convention
which met at Chicago on the 4th OF july
was attended by about $50 delegates, repre-.
senting most of the states OF the Union.
Dennis Kearney and his sandlots delegates
from California were excluded. The con-
venlion formally organized third party,
to be called the Anti. Monopoly Organiza-
ton of the United States" John f. Henry
of New York was elected president OF the
organization and b. F. Shively of Indiana
secretary. Strong resolutions were adopted
against the growing power Of railroad and
and other monopolies and in favor of the
forfeiture of all unesrned land grants. The
tariff and woman's suffrage questions were
adroitly lodged, although there was an
evident strong feeling In the convention in
favor OF free trade Ben Butler, as the
choice of the new party for president, was
laid on the table by l03 to 81.

THE CHOLERA.

The violent outbreak of the dread pesti-
lence, the cholera, at Damietta, one Of the
principal outlets of the Nile, In Egypt,
was mentioned In our last. Since then the
record has been about as follows:
June 20--107 deaths at Damietta.
June 80--l12 deaths at Damietta, and 3
at Samound, miles southwest of Dami-
eta.
July lilo deaths at DamIetta, 5 at
Samound, 3 at Mansurah.
July 2-14l deaths at Damietia, 3 at
Samound, s at Mausurah and 5 at Port
SAID.
July 3-122 deaths at Damietta, 6 at
Mansurah, at Port Said, 1 at Alexandria.
July 5--129 deaths at Damietta, etc.
The cases at Pord SAID, at the mouth of
the Suez canal, it is said have led to the
closing of the canal for the present
The disease was brought to DAM
eta from Bombay, where it has mildly
prevailed for over a month, and two
vessels within the week having arrived
at Havre from Bombay with cases on
board. all European ports are not only
quarantined against vessels from Egypt,
but also from Bombay.
An edlct has been issued prohibiting the
usual pilgrimage to Mecca this summer
on account of the pest.
Naturally the greatest excitement pre-
walls throughout Europe in regard to the
close proximity Of the dreadful pest, the
possibility of restricting its westward
spread being regarded us very doubtful.
Its first appearance in this century as an
epidemic was IN 1917, where 1t broke out
at Jessore IN Bengal, and since then lis
observed course OF travel has been uni
formly westward. In 1929 it originated in
Persia and defed all sanitary precautions
to confne 1t, and rapidly travelled with
fearful fatality through European Russia.
The repetition OF Its outbreak in the Eas
IN 1882 and again In 1903, when 1t in
vaded Western Europe and crossed the
Atlantic, and It's appearance in 1865, and
IN 1872, certainly justify the gravest ap.
prehensions and the promptest measure to
guard against II. Its frs, appearance II
Bombay this time was in May last, so
that lis appearance on the Mediterranean
80 early in the summer certainly calls for
the use of extraordinary efforts to arrest its
westward progress. ut Is conceded by the
vast majority of observers Of the disease"

CITY FINANCES

BY reference to the council proceedings
in another place it Will be seen that an or
der passed the city council to appropriate
from the contingent fund enough money
to pay certain tax warrants, the balance
Of the Portsmouth, On. H., bank judg-
ment and bills ordered paid at the Tuesday
meeting
The following statement will show more
satisfactorily the condition of the city
financial affairs: On Thursday, when the
fuance committee transferred the sum and
paid the several amounts there was cash
ID the hands of the treasurer Qncluding
the license fec of fifty -four saloon keepers)
the sum of $14,7S4. Out of this was paid
on three tax warrants issued to the First
National Bank of Ottawa, and interest
thereon $1,G0610; balance due the First
National Bank of Portsmouth, with interest
and costs $2,3G5.45; bond No. issued In
1881 on account of the Jefferson street
bridge, due July lst, 1888, with interest,
$1,000; monthly pay roll for June, audited
July 3rd, $2,72452, making a total pay
ment Of $l3,0S607. This, taken from the
amount on hand leaves IN the hands of the
treasurer about $780, There will probably
be received from the county treasurer on
account of delinquent taxes, during the
present month about $500 more, making
1920, with which to meet the August
pay roll. For the balance of the Angus,
and the September bills it will be necess-
AIRY to borrow, but on October lst there will
be received a second quarter license fee,
