THE STATE HEALTH BOARD.
The Democratic Members Meet, out
Do Not Elect Secretary.

AT the quarterly meeting of the State
on yesterday, by which time the new men,
Der was to have been appointed. Last week,
however, DR.. LOmax, President of the board,
telegrsphed the Secretary that by consent OF
a majority the meeting had been postponed
to the 18th, in order that the merits of the
respective candidates for the Secretaryship
might be fully csnvassed by the members OF
the board. Yesterday, however, the Demo-
cratic members put in an appearance and
transacted sope routine business but de-
clined 10 proceed to the election OF Secre
tarY on account OF the absence OF the Rspub-
licsn members, postponing that event to the
10Th inst. Among other things the follow
ing communication was addressed TO the
members of the General Assembly:
'The undersigned members of the Indiana
State Board Of Health would respectfully
represent that they are informed tina. there
is proposition before your honorable body
requiring the board to pay for the printing
OF its annual report out of the regular appro.
priation of 50, 600 for this board.
I'VE would respectfully suggest that il
such q proposition prevails, the residue OF
the appropriation will be wholly inadequate
to carry on the work of the B Jard success.
v,
fully protest against such action"
In conversation with one of tho new mem.
bers, he said that he had been notified that
the board would meet yesterday; again,
that an adjournment had been agreed upon
to the 18th, and then again he had received
a telegram from State Auditor Rice telling
him to be sure and come to
yesterdays meeting. Each OF the three
received a like telegram and in accordance
Herewith they came TO the meeting. They
declined to elect a President or Secretary
out Of courtesy to the Republican members,
who we're absent, but these officers will be
chosen at the next meeting. As there az
peared to be suspicion that the last ad-
jouTnment had been ordered for other pur-
poses than those stated, DR.. Elder was seen
yesterday and questioned with regard to the
matter. He said there would be no candi-
dates for the SecTetaryship save Democrat 8,
and that The two Republican members of the
board desired an adjournment that the mer-
Its Of all might be discussed, and when the
Democrats agreed upon good man it was
the intention of DIs. Lomax aud Partridge
to vote with them for his election, thus max
ing his choice unanimous and so far as posi-
bic by such means to make the board efficient
IL its work. He assured the reporter that
there was nothing irregular in the farther
adjournment OF the board, and that it wa /,
done purely IN the interest of the health o.
the State-to give ample time for the selec
ton Of a competent Secretary.
DIR. Elder said further that he was not nor
would he be candidate for the position;
that the change was really money ia his
pocket, and that the practice of his profss
sion would fully occupy his time.

Protecting Their. workmen,

The Saryen Wheel Works, Ncrdyke, Mar
mon & Co. and several other wood working
establishments in our city have covered
their buzz-ssws with the new improved 80
r." 5aw-Guards. A thorough trial of this
life.sayiDg invention has demonstrated its
entire practicability. Ii is quite improbable
that any one will be cut on a saw thus pro-
tected. They prevent splinters, loose kRets
and saw dust from flying in the workman
lace and eyes, and as the work itself is coz
siderahly facilitated with the guard on, s0d
the price of guard is only So, it is hoped
that proprietors of woodworking estab isb-
ments generally will see the Importance OF
protecting their workmen from accidents
and themselves from damage suits BY mat
ing their buzZ-saws as harmless as they are
useful. These guards are manufactured ny
the National Saw Guard Company, OF IndI-
annapolis. Ind. They guarantee the guards TO
DO all that is claimed for them. Ia fact, any
re poDsible factory can have guards to put
on and try before they buy, and thus take
no risks of being deceived.

A PACIFIC MISSION.

The success of Count Herbert Bismarck's
mission seems to have been complete. He has
returned to Berlin with important concessions
from England. which provide for the annexa-
ton to Germany of another long strip OF the
West African coast. The first series of terri
toral grants acquired by Prince Bismarck ex-
tended from Cape Frio to the Orange River.
The new colonial stations are between the
Equator and the Rio del Rey, comprising the
section of coast-line between the British settle
ments south of the Niger and the French and
Portuguese colonies near the mouth of the Congo.
English rights are reserved in the mission town
of Victoria precisely as they were at Walfish
Bay near Angra Pequena. Prince Bismarck is
allowed to proclaim protectorate over this
barren Inc of seaboard or to exercise complete
sovereignty. II is reported that some counter
concessions are made by Germany, but with
reference to the Cameroons, England virtually
recedes from the position at first maintained by
Lord Granville in tho diplomatic correspond
cnce. Prince Bismarck carries his main point
and makes another addition to his rapidly grow
ing colonial empire. AS for the insult 10 the
English flag at Victoria, 1t has already ceased
to have any significance. Tho German Govern

THE RUSSIAN ADVANCE ON HERAT

There can no longer be any doubt that the
Russian military party is dominant, and that the
movement on the Afghan frontier is taking the
shape of an advance.upon Herat, evidently in
the hope of capturing it by a coup de main.
Should this movement be swift and well sup
ported enough it may succeed, and the work of
dislodging the Russians if they were once in
Herat would be tedious and costly, as the place
possesses immense Notifications which could
soon be put In condition to resist the siege by
skilled engineers. Much depends upon whether
the British force at Quettah can be brought into
the field quickly enough to forestall the Russian
action, though it is by no means certain that the
Afghans are not able to hold their own against
the invader, at least until their allies come up.
But If the Russians fail in seizing Herat all the
chances of war are against them. They cannot
hope to advance step in Afghanistan without
encOuntering stubborn resistance &om the war
like natives. There is no other town or place of
strategic value within their reach. In facilities
for concentrating troops the English possess

ment win promptly apologize for it, it any
serious offence against international law mas
been committed. Mr.. Gladstone himself speaks
of the incident in very different tone from
that in which he demanded reparation for the
high-handed conduct Of the French Admiral In
Madagascar.
The adjustment of these colonial questions
will bring England and Germany into closer re-
lations and thereby diminish the chances OF war
in Afghanistan. In this light it must be con-
sidered an event of the first Importance. war
like as the rumors from the plain OF Herat may
sound, it is doubtful if Russia will venture to
enter upon campaign if Germany's influence
is on the side of peace. Prince Bismarck
naturally likes to pose as the peacemaker OF
the Continent. 1t is his privilege as the
strongest man in Europe 1t is also his solemn
duty as a statesman who has played many
times with the iron dice of war and who may
reasonably be expected to prevent bloodshed
where he can in order to relieve his conscience.
That he is disposed to treat England fairly, his
recent speech in the Reichstag clearly proves.
