Observation-Disclosures HILL who is Mr. Cleve-
lands poltical heir, is likely to receive one
legacy that he will not hke-the duty OF de-
ciding Sheriff Davidson's case. 1t was a shrewd
move in the Governor TO remember the proyerb ::
Always put oft till tomorrow what neeoh I
be done to-day"
The gossip from Albany in regard to a political
deal between the Governor, Mayor Edson ana
Hubert o. Thompson may be classed as inter
esting if true. The friends OF the Mayor VIII
be loath to believe. however that for any con-
sidcration he would reappoint disgraced Official
ike MIR. Thompson to serve another term az
Commissioner Of Public Works

If there is wisdom in II multitude OF council
lors we ought TO escape the cholera. Nearly
every day now, medical men, Official ana uhoi-
fetal. meet 20 consult about the probable visit
of the disease next summer ana thc Des'
means of preventing IL. Certainly the CONFER
ence of health officers in this city Yesterday de-
vel0ped wisdom, in laying greater stress on
prevention than on cure-at least Just now 90
they resolved to ask the National Government
to provide officers of inspection IN infected or
suspected foreign ports whence vessels sail to
our seaports, and called on State authorities
not TO let in ships from such places unless they
have clean bills of health properly signed. Inc
National Government ought to do TINS any
way but the resolutions of the health officers
make it doubly duty.
The discovery of a case of yellow fever III
sailors boarding house i'll Spring-st. need not
alarm anybody unless the proprietor, whose
custom it Will probably affect injuriously IL Is
too late in the year for the disease to spread
here at all. Even in summer time there Is
little danger to the city when inlreQuent cases
like this occur. People in good health, living
under proper sanitary conditions, do not read
ily catch the disease even If brought IN contact
with it. For instance; the half dozen New
Workers who last summer picked upa man
lying in gutter suffering from This disease
have never suffered from their kindness.
The cattle. miscrs are having n lively meet
ing in st. Louis. Some of the delegates are
terribly afraid lest the representatives from
this State should have more influence In the
discussions of the convention than they ought
70 have. New-lork does not raise rs many
cattle rs Texas and Montana; but we believe
she eats her share of Western beet and Is de-
cidedly interested in the condition of the cattle
before they are killed. The delegates from
Ncw-York, therefore, may properly express
their opinions in regard to National stock
trail, even f it does not come within thousand
miles of their State, or on any other topic that
comes up for discussion.
