THE NAVY.
Admiral Porter Recommendations.

Admiral Porter Recommendations.
Admiral Porter, in his annual report,
says that comparison of expenditures in
foreign navies with our own will go far to
put stop to the cry that wasteful extrava-
gance has been shown in the administration
of its financial affairs, and will show the
necessity of our doing something toward
building navy if we want to keep pace
with the spirit of the age and hold our
selves ready to maintain the respect of for
eign nations. Admiral Porter submits
what he thinks the Government ought to
do in the next two years:
/. Complete the unfinished monitors and
arm them with heavy rified guns, making
them rams as far as the models will per-
NIT. .....
g Appropriate money for all vessels that
were proposed to Congress last winter
3. Build as commencement four of the
heaviest monitors, of great endurance and
speed, each to carry four six-inch rifles in
turrets.
L. Build twenty torpedo boats not less
than 100 tons each, with speed of twenty
knots
s. One cruising ironclad of not less than
1900 tons.
6. Have all our ships over 1880 tons
supplied with torpedo boats, fitted with
noiseless condensing engines, so they can
not be heard when approaching the enemy.

of the Bureau of Education.
A volume Just issued by the Secretary of
the Interior contains some interesting facts
and figures furnished by the Bureau of
Education. The length of the school term
varies greatly, ranging from 1919 days in
Maryland to sixty-two days in North Caro-
lima. The term is more than five months
in three of the six New England States, in
five of the six middle Atlantic States, IN
three of the nine Northern Central States,
in one of the two Pacific-slope States,
and in the District Of Columbia and
Idaho Territory, and it is above three
months in all the States of the sections
named On the other hand the school
term is less than three monthe in all the
South Atlantic, in two of the four Gulf
States, in one of the six Southern Central
States, and does not equal four months
in any State of the two last named sections.
The report shows an increase of 4, 135
teachers over last year. The proportion Of
female teachers is greater than that of the
last report Even in the frontier States the
proportion of women teaching is rapidly in
creasing. There is also an upward move
ment in teachers salaries The summary
shows an income of 1914, 1927, 1888 and an ex-
penditure of $91, 15s, O39, against $sS, 49,
OSS income and 1856, Ill ,442 expenditure for
the previous year.
Illinois shows an increase of IS, 345 in
youth of school age; of 1904 in enroll
ment in public schools; of 1886 in all
public schools; of 26,267 in average daily
attendance There was also an increase of
20 in high schools, and of 3S in the num-
Der of school buildings erected during the
year. There was decrease of zoos in at
tendance in ungraded schools, of % in pub
lie schoolhouses, and of 270 in 1880 and
1881. Institutes were attended by 395
more teachers, while 9 more counties held
such institutes. The compensation Of
County superintendent was slowly in
creasing, yet much was left to be desired,
as the poor pay secured only an inferior
class of work. Income for public schools
increased 1912, 430, and expenditures

RAILWAY MAIL SERVICE.

Abstract of the Report of Superintendent
Thompson.
W. B. Thompson, General Superintend-
ent of the Railway Mail Service, has sub
mitted his annual report. 1t appears that
on June 80, 1884, there were 1T, 100 miles
of railroad upon which ma lis were carried
as compared with 78 miles in 1884 During
the last fiscal year the increase was 1852
miles. The number of railway postoffice
lines in operation June 80, 1884, was 845.
The annual miles Of service is 92,640, 099.
The increase in number of pieces Of
mail matter handled during the fiscal
year was 558, 144,22O pieces. The
percentage of increase over 1883
was 1852. The percentage of in
crease in the number of pieces of registered
matter handled was 4.93 The increase in
the past year of railroad postofice service,
including new service placed upon old
lines, was 7,641 miles The number Of
casualties during the year was 1884, in which
postal clerks were killed, % seriously and
60 slightly injured. Recommendation is
made that the Postmaster General be au-
thorized to pay to the widow or minor chill
dren of all clerks killed in the service
sum equal to one years salary of the grade
to which the clerk belonged at the
time of his death. The appropria-
ton for the service the present fiscal year
is "a, 300, 900. 1t is estimated that this
should be increased 1901 900 for the next
fiscal year, which would make the appro-
priation 81, COL 200. This is an increase of
7 per cent. An additional appropriation of
$81 300 is recommended for the purpose of
increasing the salaries of clerks of classes
five and four to 81 400 and $1,000 per
annum respectively. The appropriation for
postal-cars the present fiscal year is ST.
625,000. Recommendation is made that the
appropriation for the next fiscal year be
ST. 1915, 900. This will include an amount
for subsidized roads, which has not hereto
fore been included in the estimate
for this branch of the service. During
the year the fast-mail service has been
greatly improved without increase in cost
to the department. 1t seems probable that
the Postmaster General will soon be able to
have the fast mail arrive in Omaha much
earlier than it now does, and have special
carrier delivery in that city and at Coancil
Bluffs Immediately on arrival and before
the close of business of the day. 1t is also
hoped that mails can be expedited so as to
arrive in San Francisco about a. m, in
stead of lilo a. m. as at present. The city
mail can be delivered Immediately upon
arrival, in time to get replies for the east
bound mail the same day, which viii be
equal to SAVING one day between New York
and San Francisco. Separation for city
delivery in San Francisco is now made on
the cars.

T0-MoRR0W's MEETING.

1t is very desirable that the immigration
meeting TO be held tomorrow should be
thoroughly representative one. Now that
the northern California movement is well
under way, Sacramento must be up and
doing, or she will not receive that share of
the anticipated benefits that of right should
be hers The local organization should be
engaged in with broad and liberal spirit,
and set upon its feet with such a determi-
nation to achieve important results as will
guarantee their accomplishment. The bust
ness men of this city have deep and espe-
eial interest in the success of the undertake
ing, and they, least Of all others, can afford
10 have it fail, or operated in any half
hearted way. The interests of the people
in the county at large are scarcely less i'm
portani. They are especially interested III
the increase of values and the reduction of
taxation. That these will result within the
course of few years as sequent to the eff
fort. now being made is easily demonstra
bic. The spirit with which the work has
been entered upon in Colusa, Suffer. Yolo,
Tehama and Yuba already indicate that in
this work Of infusing new blood into north
ern California we are to have vigorous and
generous rivalry for the local benefits. 1t
behooves us in Sacramento, therefore, to be
especially earnest in our labors. There
viii not arise the necessity for any very
large expenditures, but such rs is needed
should be supplied with a liberal and
prompt hand. 1t is probable that the Com
mittee on Organization will report in favor
of membership system with small fee
attached. which will enable all citizens to
contribute TO the common end without cast
ing heavy burdens upon any.

decency, call for review, to see if such
crime can be perpetrated without arousing
an effectual public judgment" Where
upon our contemporary proceeds to review
the matter Therein it is in error. If the
press had refused to discuss these topics,
and had left these matters to the persons
Immediately interested, not even the blum
dering and shame-facedness of the Demo-
cratic party could have forced them into
the campaign. For Mr.. Cleveland, his
friends have made reply for Mrs. Blaine,
her husband has made reply. That
should end the debate. The election about
to take place is to be decision between
parties standing back of men. No matter
what scandals are circulated about the
candidates or their families, the issues of
the campaign remain the same. 1t is not
so much, after all, q Whom shall we elect?"
but what policy of government shall we
promote ? Our Democratic friends who
upon the men and their personal affairs do
so to avert scrutiny of the doctrines and
aims of their party But all this muddy
ing of waters will not deceive the people.
While the personality of the candidate
should be measured according to high
moral standard, nevertheless it is a party
| proposing certain methods for administer
| ing the affairs of the nation that is to be
| elected, and that fact should not be lost
sight of in the flood of scandal that sweeps
along with every campaign, and has from
the time of Washington to Jefferson, to
Jackson, to Lincoln and to Blaine. Every
Presidential candidate yet nominated has
been made the target for SANDER and Wifi
cation, and in no single'instance have these
assaults affected the result, nor will they

KOCHS DISCOVERY.

so much has been said of Dr. Koch's dis
covery of the cholera germ, we are not
surprised to find that his position is scri-
ously assailed by scientists a writer in
Ndi,ve challenges the conclusion that the
somma-shaped bacill found by Koch in
the rice-water excavations of cholera pa
tients, and artifcially cultivated by him,
are peculiar to cholera The writer affirms
that in diarrhual discharges he has found
a bacilli so closely resembling the comma
shaped that he cannot sec any difference
between them. Unless ii is assumed, there
fore, that the cholera poison enters the sys-
tenn only by the alimentary canal, Koch's
discovery is yaluelcSs. But it is the teach
ing of all experience that it enters the sys-
tenn through the respiratory organs also.
II so, it must pass through the blood
Koch has not found the comma-shaped
bacillus in the blood or tissues. 1t is re-
pliei that the germ, finding entrance into
the intestines, SETS up a ferment that is
absorbed into the system and produces the
cholcratic symptoms, and this, says the
writer in Nature, is possible, but not proba-
BILE, since it is established that in large
percentage of cases the cholera virus enters
by the respiratory organs, and, it must be
assumed, passes into the general circula
ton, and hence should be identified if at
all, in the blood or tissues. Even TO the
non professional. it is thus made quite clear
that Koch's discovery" has not contrib
uted to preventive medicine, nor, indeed, to
remedial medicine lie has made-a dis
sovery, the originality of which is ques-
toned but he has by no means proved the
relation of the so-called germ to the cause
of the disease nor, indeed. has he shown
THAT i. is causativc in any respect.
