The interesting abstract of DR.. KOch's
/ lecture on the etiOlogy of choera which WE
/ printed yesterday shows that the distinguished
/ investigator does not suppose himself to have
discovered a cure for the disease. He has how
ever, been led to conclude that the cholera
/ bacillus cannot retain its vitality through the
process of desiccation. The inference from
this of course is that no fluid disinfectants can
( be OF service in checking the progress of the
disease, but that dry heat if properly applied,
can be made 10 do 80. 1t is, however, necessary
to point ont that the natural habitat Of the
cholera is in lands where dry heat is the rule
six months out of the year. but that it has
never checked the spread of infection. Cases
are also on record in which s0iled clothes, bed
ding etc, after being thoroughly dried and af-
ter being kept dry for several weeks, have been
the agents of infection. And as the cholera al
ways breaks 0ut ut first in the East, and in cir
cumstances peculiarly favorable for the de-
structon of the comma bacilluSb by dcsccltion,
it would seem that DR.. Koch's conclusions,
though doubtless thoroughly well considered so
far as they go, do not really 90 far enough to be
made the justification for an entirely new
theory.
Further than this our knowledge is not in
creased tomuch useful purpose. The comma-ba-
Gill is believed to be half fungus half animal.
1t breeds only in the intestine, not entering the
blood. BY irritating the intestine, through the
secretion of a specific poison or otherwise. it
induces diarrhpa aud all the other symptoms
of cholera Through the morbid action
thus set up the blood is rapidly deprived of
it's watcry basis, the circulation is interfcrcd
with, the characteristic lividiy of the collapse
stage is induced, and eventually death Is rem
dcred probably by asphyXiatiOn or clOt in the
valves of the heart.
DR.. Koch's researches show that in most cgsos
the presumption of prcdisposition TO chocraic
influences exists. That is to say, the disease
proceeds by assimilation and selection. per-
fccty healthy intestine PROBABLY dcfcs the
comma bacillus, but when indigestion has al
ready caused organic disorder the bacilli find
favorable conditions. Tho teaching of this is
the familiar that, in cholera times especially,
attention must be paid to the digestive organs,
and no disorder in them, however slight, should
he neglected. I'm short, the conclusion to be
drawn is that cholera must be met by individual
far more than by collective action, and that
while the community may be enabled to pre-
vent the spread of the disease by destroying the
conditions which are necessary to the reproduc-
ton of the bacilli, the prevention of an cpl !
demic must depend to a great extent upon the !
state of health of the digestive organs of those |
who are at any time exposed to infection. 1t is |
Nell to have this made clear, but 1t is apparent |
that great deal remains to be ascertained be- |
fore it can be said that medical science is in a |
position to deal effectively with the cholera.

DESPERATE DEUOCRATyC TAcTrCS

The men who are running the Democratic
campaign have evidently seen the hand
writing on the wall. They realize that their
party's weak and unpopular candidate for the
Presidency is already as good as defeated.
They cannot shut their sharp eyes to the fact
that the workIngmen of the country are against
Cleveland that the Independent voters are in
dgnantly turning their backs on him; that
the religious press is excoriating him +;
that his official record has been shown
to be fatal to the claim that he is an
unselfsh refOrmer; and that his letter of ac-
ceptance has made HIM a laughing stock
among those who believe that one who stands
for the highest Office within the gift of the peO-
pie ought not to bear the same relation TO
craftsmanship that Upper does to the fine art
of poetry.
Wen, as a result of this desperate provision
of defeat we find Mr. Cleveland's managers re-
sorting to desperate tactics. Take the Chair
man of the New York Democratic State Com
mittee for example. He is the proprietor of
The AIJaRy Argus and prominently displays
day after day at the head of the editorial col
unn of that paper what purports to be the
tariilplank of the Democratic National platform
But those who take the trouble to compare
what The Argus thus prints with the platform
adopted by the Democratic National COnvcn-
ton will find that Mr.. Daniel Mannings per-
sonal organ deliberately imposes upon its
readers by suppressing the most significant
portion Of the Democratic tariff plank. Here is
the plank "a the Convention adopted it:

THE PASSING OF J1Y-EyESFF

satisfying that innate love of gore in the human
race which in Roman days drew crowds to see
the gladiatorial fights. Moreover, players from

capable of making sad havoc among their oppo-
