The Kind of Worm That Was Meant.

Chicago News.
The indianapolis Journal scorns the beautiful
and appropriate smile wherein we likened the
Indiana Democracy to crushed worm that will
turn and sting. 1t asserts that the Democracy
of Indiana is getting along about satisfactorily
as the Democracy of any other State. We had
supposed that Colonel New would interpret our
playful smile in genial spirit similar to that liz
which we spawned the beautiful conceit upon
the sea of letters. We will explain that when
we lkened the Indiana Democracy to a crushed
worm we HAD III mind no vulgar commonplace
worm, but worm Of delicate proportions and
variegated hue-in other words an object of
beauty. Had we been speaking of the Missouri
Democracy, and had we mentioned worms in
connection Herewith, there could have been no
mistake possible; we would have referred to the
miserable, cadaverous, willowy angleworms
which sprawl over the sidewalks of community
after a big rain-gaunt, feeble, grotesque. But
no malevolence could induce us to libel the De-
mocracy of Indiana TO this extent When, in a
metaphorical mood, we spoke of this large class
Of Intelligent and progressive voters as worms,
we had in mind the appletree worm, than which
there is more comely memberin the articulate
family. What, we would ask of the indianapolis
Journal-what is more beautiful than an apple
tree worm suspended in the summer sunlight by
q sIlken thread from his native bough, the sport
of every wanton zephyr? What a paragon Of
succulence prosperity and beauty! How like
mosaic wrinkles the colors of the rainbow stud
the velvet y complexion of his back, and with
what infinite grace he extends his Briarean arms
TO clutch the seductive apple on FOUNDER twigi
It strikes US that the Indiana Democrats ought
to feel complimeuted when likened to this fair,
modest and Industrious creature.

A New York paper by way of quoting
the objections of the country to the burial of
Grant in Central Park, proposes that the plat
selected for his interment shall be transferred
in ownership from the city to the national
government as the free gift Of New York to
the American people. This proposition is
kind but is not to the point. The people Of
the United States do not want General Grant
to be buried in Central Park on any terms.
They viii make no unseemly objections if it
be finally decided that his remains shall be
placed there, but the idea that his resting
place is a pleasure ground for thoughtless
crowds must forever jar upon their sense of
the proprieties and Of the eternal fitness Of
things
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1885-07-28

THE journals Washington special states
that the President has sent Commissioner
Thoman and Chief Examiner Lyman, of the
Civil-service Commission, to indianapolis, to
investigate the mugwump charges of offensive
partisanship on the part of Postmaster Jones.
Under the statement of facts set forth III the
charges, as published in the Journal, it is
difficult to see how Mr.. Jones is going to clear
his official skirts, but the Journal does not
regard his removal as probable. While the
evidence of his disregard of the civil-service
law is apparently conclusive, it must be said
for Mr.. Jones that he has done no more than
any other Democrat would have done under
the circumstances and it is extremely doubt
full if his Democratic successor-in the posi-
BILE event Of his removal-will prove any
more satisfactory to the mugwumps than has
Mr.. Jones, although he would doubtless be
more polite in his utterances

THE valiant cowboy has been curried at
Chicago in a way that must have raised great
Jumps on his proud, free spirit He took
umbrage at policeman because he had been
arrested for firing his weapon in the street. After
his release he laid for the officer and coward
like, got the drop on him" and shot him in the
back. The policeman turned to see who his
assalant was, and saw revolver pointed in an
air line at his person Nothing dismayed, he
drew his own, and the fusillade was kept up
until both had emptied their gums" the officer
advancing steadily while the firing was in
progress. Before the cowboy could draw an
other weapon he was knocked down and dragged
off to the baste. About ten years in the peni
Tertiary would be the proper thing for him.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1885-07-28

THE kindly and even eulogistic comments
upon General Grant which his death has
called forth in the Southern newspapers and
from the lips of number of ex, confederate
leaders, is not remarkable, considered from
one point of view. 1t is but natural that the
men whom he defeated in war should extol
his bravery and military SKILL since to do
otherwise would be an indirect confession Of
their own lack of these qualities. The ex
pressions of opinion in this case, however, are,
it is evident, not caused by this feeling, but
are the honest estimates of the character of
the great captain. The remarkable circum-
stance is not that the Southerners praise him,
but that they do so calmly and dispassion-
ately, putting aside the prejudices aud hatred
of twenty years ago as if they had never been.
It is a wonderful change of sentiment which
makes this possible within single generation.

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1885-07-28

THE Boston Herald is of the opinion that
mot even the favor of a president,
backed by the entire Bourbon Democracy of
Hoosierdom, will secure for Postmaster Jones
the privilege of trampling on law of the
United States while Grover Cleveland is
President" The Herald is laboring under a
slight misapprehension. Even the four pro
testing mugwumps do not charge that Jones
has trampled on the civil-service law, but has
only shown symptoms of wish to tamper
with and tread on it. He has violated the
spirit and intent Of the law, as understood by
these great local expounders, but has not in
terfered with the technical requirements.

intuitively to every citizen not biased in
favor Of some point less desirable. Nor is it
apparent that anything like a majority of the
people Of New York city favor Central Park
over the Soldiers Home at Washington. Of
course it would be indicate for any citizen
of New York to offer objection to the con-
templated plan, but it is morally certain that
vast majority of the people would much pre-
fer that the ashes of the Nations soldier
should find resting place in ground owned
by all the people.

GOVERNOR HOADLY will live to find him
self not liked a little Bit He is one of the
very few State executives that have failed to
properly represent the sympathy of the peo
pie on the occasion of the death Of General
Grant, which, under the circumstance Of Ohio
being Grants native State, is remarkably
stupid il not churlish. 1t is said that his
omission to render decent honors to the
Nations great dead arises from the fact that
he was in great hopes of being appointed sue
cessor to Chief justice Chase. When Mr..
Waite was nominated, Hoadly was very
wroth, and has never forgotten his disappoint
ment. If this be the cause Of his offending. it
reveals him as very little man, entirely too
sesentful to fit him for the high office he holds.

DR. FERRAN is squelched. The Medical
Record pronounces him gigantic humbug
The much talked of cholera vaccinations have
been found as useless in practice as they are
erroneous in theory. They prove to be sim
pie NEGOTIATIONS of septicamic matter. Bro
vardel has made an official communication to
the Academic de Medicine, as chairman Of the
French Cholera Commission sent to Spain I'M
der his direction, that Ferrans performances
are not worthy of scientific investigation.
Fortunately this Spanish pseudo-Jenner has
used "benign" form of vaccine" and the
physical results have not been extreme in but
few cases, while the moral effect upon the
simple peoples Of France and Spain, upon
whom this enthusiastic experimenter has ope-
rated, has been of incalculable benefit. DR..
johnson states to the National Board of Health
of this country through the American minis
ter at Paris, that the idea that prophylactc
had been discovered has given feeling Of
security and confidence, preventing the gen
tofore seized upon the peoples of infected or
threatened regions. This cheerful aud health
full Indifference, backed up by the sanitary
measures which the municipal authorities
have carried out as zealously as though Fer
ran was not in the field, has done much
to combat the extension of the disease
Even if Ferran did not hit upon the right
microbe and properly "attenuate' it, after the
method of Pasteur in chicken cholera and in
splenic fever, his motive was no doubt honest,
and the result of his delusion for once justi-
fes it. Still the disease goes on. The esti-
mate of deaths up to July II was 10000; to
July 20, Is, 900, while to-day it is not far from
$4,000. New provinces are being constantly
invaded; the daily number of new cases av-
erages about LOO, with from 600 to 700
deaths. The medical profession is still at its
wits ends as to the cause of Asiatic cholera.
The belief seems to be growing that even if it
is a germ disease rather than filth disease,
that germ is not the famous comma bacili of
Koch. The most important document re-
lating to the question is the report of Drs. L.
Klein and Heneage Gibbes to the government
of India, in which it is shown that Comma
bacilli" occur in other diseases; that scarcely
trace Of this miclobe is found in typical rap
idly fatal cases; that the discharges of cholera
patients did not affect tie lower animals when
eaten by them or when injected into various
parts Of the body. There is determination
upon the part Of scientific medical men of all
countries to sift every theory, and make no
such blunder as is so generally credited to
Ferran in the future.
