The President ought to be satisfied by this
time that his assertion, first made in his free
trade message and afterward repeated in his
letter Of acceptance, that the cost of domestic
goods was equal to the cost Of foreign goods of
the same class plus the amount of the tariff
duty, is absurdly inaccurate. 1t is not easy to
convince Mr.. Cleveland that he doesn't know
as much as he thinks he knows. His self
evolved notions stand for more than any guam
tity Of facts. But if he will read the state
ments made elsewhere in THE TRIBUNE to-day
by wool manufacturer he will find some i'm
portant evidence in contravention of his views
concerning the way high tariff acts upon the
price Of domestic woollens, together with some
other useful. interesting, and to him, we dare
say, novel information.

Tammanys position in the Mayoralty con-
test is beginning to look ridiculous. Until the
County Democracy leaders resolved to save
their organization from absolute disintegraton
and ruin by renominating Mayor Hewitt
Tammany held the decided advantage. But
that move at once knocked the veil of virtue
from Tammany's face. Her leaders could not
be persuaded to accept Hewitt, nor have they
been able to present any one who compares
with him in ability and fitness. Two months
ago they were protesting vast moral superiority
over their rivals, and noisiy declining to have
any relations with them. Now, however, they
are offering to compromise and unite. This
course will be fatal TO Tammany She has
only one chance of success. Mr. Croker must
find some one who will consent to run against
Mayor Hewitt who occupies a position in the
public esteem equal with his. If Mr.. Croker
cannot do this, Tammany must consent to play
second fiddle to the weaker faction and take
what She can ppf

The yellow fever scare has taken possession
of the entire South and cities are establishing
against each other a shotgun quarantine. This
may be effective, but it is scarcely civilized.
TO fight contagion by methods inspired by
panic is not in harmony with the spirit. of the
age. Considering the small death-rate COM
pared with the number Of persons attacked by
yellow fever during an epidemic, it is remark
able that the disease should produce such wide
spread and unreasoning terror. Medical ex-
perts think that the cold season is too close at
hand to render the serious spread of the fever
probable.

1t is singular and striking circumstance
that the last of Professor Proctor's literary
contributions written just before he died,
should be devoted to the consideration of dis
eases similar to that which so dramatically
ended his useful life. We print this article
to-day. 1t relates to the great plaques which
history has recorded, showing how much SCI
ence has done to reduce their terrors and dan
gers until the worst of their manifestations
to-day seem insignificant in comparison with
the havoc wrought in the ages when ignorance
Of their nature did so much to aid their spread
and development This little sketch will be
the more interesting to the public, coming, as
it does, so closely upon the tragic death of its
distinguished author.

become nothing but an asylum for political

There has been a singular tribute in the Senate
to the growth of temperance sentiment in the
country. Senator Morgan of Alabama was moved
by certain remarks of another Senator to OBTAIN
certificate from twenty Of his colleagues that they
had never seen him in state OF ntOxicaton.
Time was when such an accusation would not
have been thought to be worth such an elaborate
refutation, and no doubt the time will come when
more Senators will be able to command such GER
tfcates.

The town of Pullman must oe an ideal place TO
live in. Last year the death rate was only nine
per 200 of the population. the previous year only
eight and this year, it is thought the rate will
be still lower. This includes deaths from acct
dents. There are $4,000 inhabitants, and only
four doctors and one lawyer. Enough said.
