Slight Abatement--Effe of BaC
5-E 90 i Nursing aEE


JAcKsoNvILLE, Fla, Sept. 1.-THE
official bulletin for yesterday reports
only 32new cases ofsyellow fever, for
"A hours. ended at 8 pm, and 6
deaths; total number of cases todate,
636; total deaths, 10. Some rega"d
the reduction in new cases as the
effects of the storm. Physicians see no
reason to hope for any abatement of
the disease on that account. One
hundred more nurses are needed.
The mortality is still very light where
cases are promptly and properly treat
ed and nursed. Several have died
from want of proper nursing, being
in charge of field hands, who pro-
fessed to be nurses. The board of
health has issued circular giving a
formula of self treatment that will be
the occasion of much good.

The suggestion of Hon. Alfred Short, of

has since been earnestly advocated and edi-
torially indorsed by such influential Demo
cratic papers as the Chester county Demo

by number Of other papers. The Eren-

oATE's support of Short recognizes it 1.-THE
ADVOCATED as one OF the most influential
and widely circulated papers in eastern

Mr.. Short in such a hearty manner is very
gratifying, and speaks for the perception Of

We Am See Now.

We can all see what is the matter
since the smoke of battle has cleared
away There is no room for mis-.
take 1t is not too late to put the
party in fighting trim, and win
hack to us the thousands who are,
at heart, with US. Ours is the peo-
l.le's party; it must be kept in the
hands of the people and thoroughly
re-organized in every county, in
every district, aud in every voting
precinct in the State.
The party must now decide
whether the same path shall be fol-
lowed in the future that has brought
us to the verge of defeat, or whether
.se shall pursue the plain Demo-
cratic course of fighting for princi-
pies instead of men.
The man who is not willing to
pat aside personal prejudices and
Individual preferences for the wei
fare of the party, is not a good Dem
ocrat.
Let US begin now to break down
l'Ossism in our party, which showed
its hydra-hcad to an alarming ex-
tent in the late Democratic conven-
lions. both county, district and
State, and all through the campaign.
The people were tired of this, and
sought to rebuke it at the polls; and
we hope the Democratic managers
have been taught lesson that they
will profit by in the next campaign,
AMI will make no more mistakes.
Let us commence the organization
of our party now. Begin at once by
fnrrning permanentclubs throughout
the State, and we will not be run so
close at the next election that re-
counts of the ballots will be neces-
sary.
Hundreds of Democrats voted the
Republican ticket at the late cleo
ton because they were disguised at
the way nominations were made.
They hoped to teach the Democracy
a lesson. They will be back with
US again in 1892, and will vote with
us, if the bosses do not show their
hands too plainly, as they did in
1888.
Democrats. fight not for men, but
for principles, and West Virginia
will again roll up her usual majority
for the glorious and invincible De-
mOeraey.

He Has The Nerve.

The attempts of Republican or
gans in this State to s:coddle" Gov
erhor Wilson on the subject of his
duty in relation to election results,
are sickening as they are silly.
Governor Wilson has eyes in his
head as sharp sighted as anybody s.
He has had the opportunity to
watch the Republican deviltry in
this State as closely as anybody,
and he is as competent to pass on
the result as anybody. lie is a
Democrat, and he will not be affect
ed or influenced by all the fuIsome
adulation the Republican press can
indulge in. When the time comes
for his decision or his action, he
will be found doing just what his
conscience and his regard for his
duty dictates. Governor Wilson
cannot be fiattered or threatened
into any course of conduct which
his conscience does not approve,
and he has a head of his own which
is sufficiently hard to resist all i'm
proper attempts to defect him from
his purposes.
Whatever Governor Wilson does
in this crisis he will do honestly,
and his party will stand by him,
whatever may be the result. The
Republicans needn't question his
nerve Gazette.

what snall We Do to be saved,

We find that some Democrats are
kicking against any attempt at
making politics better than a raid
of pirates. They say we must adopt
the Republican tactics or wc cannot
win. We must not only buy votes,
We must print lies and publish
them. We must buy up the odds
and ends that drift through the
dirty market places of venal politics:
We must descend into the depths of
falsehood, trickery and deceit We
must corrupt election officers. We
must colonize voters. Why? Be-
cause it will win. 1t does win.
They point to West Virginia as an
example. There ii no disputing the
facts. What are we going to do
about it, Wet<et Democrat.
