THE Eastern papers which como to

electrical railway in Cleveland, Ohio.
This experiment appears to be com

to be introduced into New York City.
The invention is said to be far ahead oi
anything yet devised by Edison. There
is an infinity OF possibilities at the com

The Prospector.

Is there one man who, more than an.
other, deserves the homage Of the people
the gratitude Of the nation, surely for
us Of the west it Is the prospector. To
him we are indebted for much. II not all
that has contributed to make us itch
and powerful. To him is our nation in
debted more than any other for the vast
increase, within the past three decades.
Of its stores Of the more precious met.
ais. To him are our mtisans under
heavy debt Of gratitude for the success.
full Inauguration Of innumerable indus-
tries which has furnished employment to
thousands Of operatives, built up great
cities in the West, and made necessary
the construction of and given profitable
employment 10 railroad. steam ship and
telegraph lines, and developed the agri
cultural resources of hitherto barren
domain. His deeds OF daring and hard
ships and privation are not related In
gilt-edged volumes which adorn our
library shelves, nor told on storied
shafts, monumental In the hearts of
those who owe him so much; but the
grand results of his laborers arc abund.
antly testified in the transformation
Of uninhabited wastes into cultivated
fields, and blooming gardens, and thrifty
settlements wherever his tireless search
for gold has been rewarded by discovery.
No prouaer monument to his indomi-
table persistence in his chosen calling
could be placed to tell of his wisdom
and his skill than the pleasant scenes
we have pictured.
To Christopher Columbus is due all
praise for the brave and ventureous
spirit that led him to traverse unknown
seas in clumsy and uncertain galleon,
which resulted in the discovery of q
continent and the founding of new
world. Columbus, inspired by the hope
of reward and the favor of his sovereign,
went forth upon his mission, surrounded
by trusted servitors, sustained by the
prayers of powerful priesthood and in
spired by a selfish ambition-sure in
any event should he return, Of the
plaudiis of his countrymen.
The humble prospector, equally brave
and venturesome, inspired by no tempt
ing DO 'sibilities that human gratitude
may hold for him, with the major per.
centage of chance against him, puts the
implements of his rude toll and a scant
supply of life necessaries upon his pa
tient burro, end wen Is his way alone,
uhcared for and unremembefed, into the
wilde of an unknown country, where,
surrounded by hostile savages, beset by
numberles, dangers of storms, of wild
beasts, of accident and starvation,
he hopes TO find the outcrop
of fortune. Patiently. tirelcssly
he prosecutes his hazardous search. Too
often the hardships and exposures insep-
arabic from his vocation break down his
strength and destroy his life. and with
out sepulture. 'unwept, unhonored and
unsung," his ignis fatuus leads him to a
miserable doom. Should he be success
full in his search, it is not infrequently
the case that wiser and more cunning
men of the city wrest from him his hard
earned prize, leaving him but the altern-
ative against mendicancy of o repetition
of his rugged experiences. F. Er-
change.

None 30 mind as Those who Will
Not Nee.

1t Is astonishing how the moral sense
may become blunted, under certain cir.
cumstances, and how prejudice will
often blind the judgment Of those who
would naturally bo supposed TO want to
lean towards the right. It was only last
week that tho telegraph was loaded
down with tho disclosure Of frauds in
the contract of the postoflice Department
In regard to envelopes. by which some
swindling contractor, who is doubtless a
leading member In good standing OF the
party Of "high moral ideas, defrauded
the government out Of several hundreds
Of thousands Of dollars, and we have thus
far seen no editorial comment, TO say
nothing Of condemnation. in regard to
this matter in any Republican paper.
And this Is not the exception. II is the
rule. With them their party Is infalli-
BILE. 1t can do no wrong. It's more
sacred than the Republic. Any tramp
ling down Of the Safeguards Of the peo-
ple--any robbery Of the public purse-is
oil right, and nothing must be said about
it, il "the party" does it, or receives the
benefit. "There are none so blind as
those who will not sse."

Camphor for Cholera.

A correspondent of the New York
Herald says; The following simple rem.
edy was issued in handhill form by the
H,beruia Printing Office. Dublin, Ire
land, during the severe visitation OF the
cholera in 1886, and was the means of
saving thousands of lives. 1t was also
used with valuable effect in lS43, and l
would advise its use again should that
epidemic visit our shores. In any case,
however, no harm could be done by having
it in the house during the coming warm
months:
Dissolve one ounce OF camphor in six
ounces Of spirits of wine and give small
bottle OF it TO ony intelligent person in
your neighborhood who will undertake
to administer it to his poor ncighbors
when they are seized with cholera or
any Of its symptoms, without deviating
in the slightest degree from the follow
ing Instructions;
When any person is seized with symp.
toms of cholera, such as vomiting, purg-
ing, sudden weakness, coldness, cramps
or spasms, do not give them brandy or
whisky or any kind OF medicine what
ever, but put them to bed ut once, COW
ering them warmly, but not overlooking
them with bed-clothes. and as soon as
you possibly can let the patient take two
drops mot more) OF the camphor mix.
ture on little pounded sugar in a
spoonful of cold or iced water. In five
minutes after let him take second dose
OF two drops in the same way. and in
five minutes more repeat the same thing.
He is then to wait ten or fifteen minutes
to see whether or not there is sense of
returning warmth, with disposition to.
ward perspiration and manifest decrease
Of sickness, cramps, ETC., ETC., when, it
necessary, he must take two drops,
as before. and repeat tho dose every
five minutes until twelve or thirteen
drops have been taken. In administer
ing this remedy you must particularly
observe that it the patient takes any thing
OF any sort or kind, except cold or iced
water, while the medicine Is intended to
operate, its whole effect will be destroy.
ed, for the least foreign medicine will
neuiralize the camphor, which is given
to check vomiting, and to produce free,
warm perspiration. The use of cold or
iced water is given ON the advice of the
celebrated and successful DR.. Paddock,
of London, who always allowed his pa
tients to drink iced or cold water, as it
tends to promote free perspiration aud
also the abundant discharge of yellow
bile.

HARDLY day passes but that the
telegraph tells MS OF American citizens
being subjected TO outrsges in some part
of the world. From Mexico, China, Cuba
these reports reach us. Bat little, If
any, notice is ever taken Of sucn matters
at Washington. The press might as
well quit publishing these accounts.
Such occurrences are too common to even
make nows, and our Government is so
imbecile on the point that nothing is
gained in the way Of relief from it.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1884-08-14

SgrposE, for tho sake Of the argu.
ment, that the Republicans should sue
ceed at tho coming election, and the
next. and the one following, and so on
indefinitely; and that fraud and corrup'
tion and misrulo Of every kind should
continue and increase in the future, as il
has under their rule in the past for fif.
teen years, and as it would doubtless
continue to do, we have no doubt that
at the remotest moment of time con.
ceivable under this hypothesis Republi.
cans would still be reiterating the same
stale, old. worn out platitudes in place
Of reasons, to prove that.they ought still
to retain their hold on the public crib
and feast off the spoils OF Office. "We
saved the Union in 1861. and we must
not be turned cut now." would still be
their song. Their unfilness, their dis
honesty, their incapacity. should never
count against them. Republicans
ought to learn that life is for the pres
ent. The heroes OF 81 never intended
or expected that the war should be
fought over every election until Cab.
riel's warning blast shall herald the end
OF time.
