The following from the New Orleans
Times -Dsmocras will apply TO vii.
minaton e. we'll ~ other cities, and IL
seems that something should be done
10 check this waste OF infant life: "At
this season OF the year begins the
slaughter Of the innocents In all our
large cities. Cholera infantum OUT
herods Herod, and Stays his thousands
daily, simply for lack Of little fresh
lair. In Chicago, with the warm weather
Of July, the deaths Of children sprang
up from 200 to 100 o month. As one OF
the Chicago papers puts II. one child
ont of every ninety-five under 8 years
of age; and one infant out OF every
twenty seven under year old, living
on July I, will be In the gravey ard be-
fore the end Of the month.
"This 10 startling indeed, and whom
the deaths are added mp for all our large
cities the slaughter In something fear
ful. And the worst feature Is that
nearly all this excessive death rate OF
oh ildren can be easily prevented by q
little fresh air. Ever II 1t be impossible
to keep clean the streets and alleys and
the surroundings Of habitations in the
|densely populated quarters whore
Ignorance and poverty prevail; even III
it is not wholly possible TO promptly re-
move the garbage and ell other refuse;
to rigidly and vigilantly inspect the
milk, etc., still, with all this uncleanli.
ness, with all this flth, an immense
majority of these deaths can be pre-
vented II the rich will give from their
fortunes enough to enable the children
OF the poor to obtain q breath of fresh
air daily ON the river or lake front.
"The fact IL well known now, and In
many cities funds are raised to give the
poorer children an airing. An excel
lent Instance Of this was In Louisville,
where the death rate from cholera fell
In one week from twenty-five to two
when excursions on the Ohio were In
troduced, and continued at the latter
low figure as long ss they were kept up.
In New York the St. Johns Guild has
similarly accomplished wonders and
saved thousands Of lives, and most of
the other American cities have some
society 10 carry out this great charity.
"It is a sad thought indeed that all
these lives cannot be saved, and that
for the want OF money and consequently
Of fresh air, 30 many children should be
killed. Charitable as Americans are,
their charity in this direction does not
extend far enough, for 1t allows cholera
