c central galvanization and general faradiza-
ton are employed to advantage. But the
great question is, Can drugs be used-can
the terrible consequences OF cessation OF
the habit be prevented by any substitute?
It is A philosophers stone for which the
whole medical world is seeking. He ad-
mits that there may be such a remedy
found in the use of varied prescriptions,
but while some cases prohibit the use of
medicines, others invite it However, it is
not the purpose in these columns to follow
him in the details relating to use OF the
bromides, chloroform, quinine capsicum,
hydrobromic acid, ginger, etc, since all
that is within the purely professional
realm. Our purpose rather is to indicate
how much medical science yet owes to the
world in this one matter of opium eating.
The thousand and one fraudulent " rene
die" advertised testify to the growth of the
evil, and that the victims are calling for
help. The physicians declare that there is
no antidote," and that " treatment alone
will avail Sudden cessation on the part
of the habitue is impossible, reduction i'm
practicable, substitution unsuccessful. The
evil is increasing greatly in California. The
Chinese here give it an impetus it does not
feel at the East, and the victims are more
numerous than the general public suppose.
Comparatively few Of the victims will sub
nit themselves to physicians for treatment,
preferring to suffer on, with occasional &c
static intervals. 1t is altogether likely that
at no very distant day hospitals for these
slaves of a horrible appetite must be estab-
lished, and local laws invoked to check the
evil, for present statutes are practically I'M
able to cope with what Meylert terms the
devils drug" and who adds: at should
be understood that opium habituation
means death-mental, moral and physical.
Every one who cannot instantly drop it is
drifting toward destruction"

IT was in the Congressional sessions OF
l8G7-G9 that Mr.. Blaine took a prominent
position as Congressman in requiring the
English Government to honor the claims
of Irishmcn who had become naturalized
citizens Of the United States-much against
the wish Of England it was, too. Hishmcn
will remember the cases of Costello ct ais,
arrested in Ireland for alleged reasonable
utteranccs against England. Costello, 4
naturalized American, was tried and sent
to Millbank Prison But Mr. Blaine raised
the question Of the right of England to do
so, and 50 worked it up in Congress that
Great Britain retreated from her policy and
liberated Costello.

THE CASE OF MIR. CURTIS.

In the San Francisco call of yesterday
appeared a statement by w. w. Morrow
Chairman of the California delegation at
the Chicago Convention, that places George
William Curtis is very awkward position.
Three conspicuous points are made by Mr..
Morrow:
First-That Mr. Curtis entered the Con-
vention knowing very nearly what Mr..
Blaine's strength was, and that there WIS
strong probability of his being chosen.
But Mr. Curtis gave no intimation that he
would not abide by that choice and which
he was contesting.
Second-That after Mr.. Blaine was nomi-
mated, Mr. Curtis attended caucus held by
the leading men of all the factions to con-
slider who should be the nominee for Vice
President, and he took an active part in
the discussions at that conference, and him
self proposed names for consideration, but
gave out no intimatiOn that he would bolt
the nomination of Mr.. Blaine
Third-That when the resolution to bind
~ w Tic NdS
proposed, Mr.. Curtis led the Convention
distinctly to understand that its adoption
would be an insult to the honor of the dele
gates, as they would unqucstionably dc
their duty without such a spur From
which all who heard him inferred that he
held all delegates We're in honor bound tc
support the nominee, and that only dishon-
orablc men would refuse to do So Mr.
Morrow adds After his candidate was
defeated, he apparently accepted the situa
ton and sealed his promise to support tn,
choice Of his party by taking part in th,
subsequent discussions upon and selection
of the man who would complete the ticket
| and then. when the Convention haC
finished Its labors, he left for his HON,
without giving a single hint to his fellow.
members that he would turn traitor to tn,
cause he had promised to support

THE plea of the boilers in the case of
Judge Folger when he was beaten by the
revolt Of independents for Governor of
New York, was that Judge Folger was not
fairly nominated and hence the revolt was
justifiablc. The same elements objected to
General Grant for third term because he
would not represent the sentiment of
majority Of the party. But how very diff
ferent is the situation in the case of Mr..
Blaine. The boilers do not claim that he
was unfairly nominated, and they fatty
admit that he is the choice of an exceed
ingly large majority Of the party The
cases of Folger and Blaine are not parallel
therefore, no: of Grant and Blaine, and the
revolt cannot be justified on the grounds
taken in Folger's or Grant case. All that
remains is the plea We don't like him, "
for all charges made are trivial and they
have no force with the people
