THE FLORIDA EPIDEMIC.

The situation ut Jacksonville IL very
serious. 1t is evident that the epidemic
has got beyond the control of the local
health board, aud the appeal for money
and medical aid sent out to the general
public on Wednesday does not cover the
whole case. Signs of panic among the
people have been multiplying for week.
and the alarming part of it Is thag the
want of harmony between the city and
federal authorities has become more pro-
nounoed Hundreds of people who are
ready TO leave the CITY find that they can
not do so without submitting to quaren-
tine regulations, which they dislike. The
meeting between Surgeon. General Ham
ilton and the citizens committee at Camp
Perry on Tuesday, appears frcm az ao'
counts to have been q very unsatisfactory
affair. DR.. Hamilton had gone down
there not in the b st of humor, one might
imagine, because of the newspaper attacks
upon him for putting jacksonville under
q strict quarantine. For some time, 1t
may be added, the Jacksonville people,
and indeed the health boards OF
several counties, had resented the
official reports ISSUED 10y Or Ham
nton concerning infection and disease IA
thai state. When the FIRST symptom OF
the yellow jack appeared De. Hamilton
gSvo warning of che danger bat there
came prompt denjsl4 that the plague ez
listed at all. This dispute probably lead
to failure TO report yellow fever cases
when it was we'll known in Jacksonville
that the disease had broken out. DIR.
Hamilton would have been justified in
cutting OH the approaches to the city
long before he did. AZ the conference
between him and the Jacksonville com
mittee at Camp Perry, the surgeon gen
eral announced that the only way for per,
sone wishing TO leave was to remain at
Camp Perry for ten days, and then Ger
tidcates OF thorough fumgation would be
issued, provided the authorities where the
fugityes wished to go would agree TO
take them. The chairman of the citizens
committee said that many persons would
refuse to oubmit to the Camp Perry
regulations. But DR.. Hamilton will
not retreat from his position and
thus the mater rests. There will
be no disposition to fad fault
with the distressed people Of Jackson.
vile, 5u. on the other hand, if DR.. Haml
ton is blamed in this matter, IL viii be

coping with the plague is siugularly de-.
feeive. No state fund is available IN
this emergency, nor IS Hrro even state

THE Attorney General of New York re-
Gently filed bill of complaint against
the New York corporations composing
sugar trust, asking that their charters be
forfeited on the ground that they had ex-
ceeded their chartered powers aud engag-
cd in a combination antagonistic to the
interests of the public The sugar re-
finiDg com panies have filed their answer
IN which they deny every allegation made
in the Attorney Generals bill. The plea
declares that the combining companies
have not entered into any conspiracy or
combination or agreement of any kind;
that they have not transferred any stock
to any trust or trustees nor received In
return any trust certificates. The first
impulse is 10 exoaim: Glow these trusts
are given to lying" But the rejoiner
leaves a loophole for the consciences OF
the members of the trust by admitting
that the individual stockholders have
done the things charged and claiming
that as individuals they have legal right
to do so. In other words, the sugar
trust, through its lawyers, ask the pub
lie tho question once pronounced by
Tweed. Ii now remains to be seen
whether tho state of New York can do
anything about it.

Mr. Mundy IS the Republican nom
ince for Register of Deeds for Douglas
county We have been frequently ask
cd concerning Mr.. Muntk's standing
III the community and of his general fit
ness for the place, to all of which we
have been unable to give very defin-
tie reply, owing to the fact that We
have never had any personal acquaint-
with him until a few days ago. On
some candidates the Vest End has
been divided, and came into the Coun
tY Convention with divided deleSat
ion, but not 50 on Mr.. Mundy. He was
their unanimous and only choice to
that place ON the ticket which had
been conceded to them, and therefore
was nominated without any opposition
whatever, hence, those who know him
having chosen him, we see no reason
why every Republican should not vote
for him lie is wide-awake, GO
ahead man, is largely interested in our
town, both as property owner and
one who is advancing our manufacture
ing interests. Mr. Mundy formerly
resided at Bay City, Michigan, and in
noting his nomination by our people,
the Bay City Daily Tribune speaks of
him in this fashion:
Mr.. Mundy was several years a
resident Of this city, and a staunch
worker for the Republican party. This
is the first time he has been nominated
for Office. When in the hardware bt i
ness he was an energetic and get-there
person every day in the week. His
friends would be pleased to hear Of his
election. lie is entirely capable to fill
the position Of Register, and the PEG
pie of Wisconsin, if they know what
they are about, VIII see that he gets
there"
With such an endorsement as this
from those who know him, we can
have no hesitency in voting for him,
and advising all others to do likewise.
Some of our Democratic strikers
and blowers for lack of anything else
to say, tell their less informed listen
erS that they should vote against Mr..
lIaugen for congress because he could
get only paltry so, 0O0 for our harbor
improvements. The facts are the APP
preparation as passed by Congress, was
for $50, 600, but Grover Cleveland, our
Democratic President, VETOED the
BIZ. This same man Cleveland is now
asking You to elect him for another
term. VIII you do it? If you want
money for your Bay improvements vote
fer a man who will not veto the bill
providing the means. If we have not
had sufficient money for our harbor
improvements, look to Grover Cleve-
land and the Democratic party for the
reason why, and not to Mr.. Uaugen.
China is debating the question of
severing her business as well as social
relations with the United States. Gro
yer seems determined to either rule or
ruin the country. The Democratic
party occupied the same rule or ruin
position ii 1859. Truly history does
repeat itself
