THE report Of the appearance Of cholera
upon the Pacific coast comes from south
ern port. It's not, as the dispatches say,
ineXplicable how a ship could bring it so
far, or that a vessel should come to a small
place in Tehuantepec from an infected port
of Europe. The commerce of the world
moves through so many and devious chan
nels now that infectious disorders are
likely to be transported to and from any
and all parts of the globe. We may es-
cape cholera this year in California, but
there is almost absolute certainty that
another season will bring it to the northern
coast. Its journey has been successfully
stayed but once-when France barred the
way. But that was long ago before the
means Of communication were SO plentiful

YELLOW FEVER has broken ont again in
Mexico, in a northern State and with I'M
exampled suddenncss. 1t has appeared in
a number of interior cities simultaneously,
while at the seacoast no fever prevails.
This establishes the fact that the germs
have been propagatcd by last years burials
at Hcrmosillo and adjacent towns; the
earth, indeed, is breeding the germs above
the bodies of the victims Of the fever of
last year. Hermosilo is, unfortunately,
directly connected with California by rail,
and is vt a few hours ride from US. The
Mexican frontier IS a long one, and it is
hardly possible to establish such barriers
as will prevent fugitives fleeing to our side
of the line. Thus the chances of the dis
ease reaching the southern Territories and
California continue very great. No precau-
tons that can be taken should be neglected
to keep the infection as far away from our
doors as is possible.

COLONEL BABcoCK, California delegate
to the National Prohibition Convention,
has returned and unbosomcd himself to a
San Francisco reporter. The Colonel is a
shrewd observer and an able campaigner.
He admits frankly that st. John and
Daniel have no prospect of securing even
one Electoral vote, and expresses himself
as believing that Mr. Blaincs election is
assured. The plank Of the Prohibitionists
in favor Of unrestricted immigration he
admits is very damaging to the party in
California. The Colonel is undecided as to
just what should be done by his party.
He ought to be able to see clearly that it is
folly to run an Electoral ticket here The
California Prohibitionists should follow
the example of their brethren in Indiana,
Georgia and Mississippi

Murderer Hanged by Citizens.

PORTLAND, August l9th-Several months
ago Louis a. Knott murdered VIM. Hig-
gins near the town of Pullman, W. r.
Higgins was n young man, and owned a
ranch. The evidence at the trial showed
that Knott desired to obtain possession of
some money owned by Higgins, also a
piece of land. After the shooting, Knott
dragged the body some distance. and buried
it in grave. Higgins was missed and
search was made. The body was dis
covered, Knott arrested and tried, convicted,
and sentenced to be hanged. A stay of
execution was obtained. and an appeal
taken 10 the Territorial Supreme Court.
This gave the murderer nearly one
years lease of life. There was
very bitter public feeling against
Knott, and the citizens seemed out of
