8. The Courts have decided that refusing. TO

''THE Carbon county Grand Jury pre-

House il unfit for use, lncommodious, un-
healthy, poorly ventilated, business is in
terrupted BY sGeet noises, and that new

Quite true, and they might have gone
one step farther and recommended Le-
highton a. the place where the new court
house should be located. We have loca-
ton for such an edtice almost in the CEN
ire of town and iua, fsr enough away from

centrally located, railroad facilities are the
best, hotel accommodations can't be beat,
and dozen other lundisputed arguments
prevail as TO why this town, with its mag

County Seat Of Carbon county. Look OF

THE CAD suicide of 4 woman in New

suggestive of the fact that the way Of the

woman alone in = strange city, appealing
for employment, even that of servant,
must forsooth have 'citY reference" 9TH

but life of shams was lefs; this she
spurned, and then in utter despair the poor,
struggling woman, who valued virtue al

SENATOR RIDDELBERGER, of ViginiA, is
dead. For number of years he was a
conspicuous figure in the House, not so
much on account of any particular ability,
but for his peculiar eccentricacieS and bril-

hurled broadslde at the opposition. One
notable event of his life, indicative of the
undercurrent nature, was his public recon.

SINGING THE EAGLES TUNE.

The Hon. Sol. Miller, editor of the
Troy Chief who founded his paper in
the territory, years before Kansas be
came a state, who has served many
years in the legislature and has never
been anything but the most radical of
radical Republicans, but who for months
has shown disposition to criticize the
EAGLES Rebellion, now out-Herods
Herod in the following, and we are not
so lonesome as we We're:
The election of a majority of Alliance
men to the legislature may be good
thing, if they carry out every thing they
promise. But when men succeed to
power, they often forget the prayers
they made in adversely, and yield to the
temptation TO provide snug places and
good salaries for as many of their friends
as possible. One of the things for which
the Republicans deserved a rebuke. was
their growing extravaganza. Board
after board has been created, until
the state, in the language of Blaine,
Is ''plastered over with boards" and
enormous appropriations have been
made. far in access of the actual needs.
Every board" has made it n point to
ask for large appropriation for the in
stitution under their care; and there is
not public institution that does not put
in a plea for additional buildings. at each
session of the legislature. The Peoples
party have promised to abolish or con-
sOlidate boards, and TO cut down apprO-
priations. If they DO it, we shall be a
believer in the Peoples party, in that
particular.
The insane asylums need large addi-
tons, and they are about the only public
institutions that do. The educational
and other public institutions not only do
not need additions, but their appropria-
tons for running expenses have been
excessive. They can afford TO run on
hard times fare as well as the people.
That institution at Hutchinson is
white elephant. The state could
save money by letting it 20. and
losing all it has already put in.
The skating rink and snow shed
provided for by the last legislature, for
the alleged benefit of the soldiers. is a
fraud of the first water. and could be
suppressed before it becomes a fixed
blood sucker upon the state. We have a
pretty well defined notion that the
female concern at Beloit is another leak
that could be advantageouslv nipped in
bud. The boards that manage all these
concerns might be consolidated into al
least three-one for the educational insti-
tulOns, one FOR the penal and refOrma-
tory Institutions. and one for the
asylumS. Has the board Of railroad
commissioners ever been OF dollars
worth OF benefit 10 the state: lt could
be wiped out 10 good advantage.
The fish commission l. useless affair.
The silk commission. with the bounty on
silk, i an imposition. The sorghum

sion Is in the same boat The state

is CONSUMPTION CURABLEq

The medical profession is naturally
very much interested in Professor
Koch's b cillar theory of the cause OF
/ pulmonary disease and his new method
Of cure by incubation. The publicity
/ that has been given to this discovery has
excited the absorbing attention of the
world. Consumption is one of the most
relentless diseases that afflict humanity,
and the belief that me ms of deliver
ance from it has been discovered is well
calculated to excite the liveliest hopes
among the people Of all civilized coun-
tries.
1t is as yet, however, far from clear
that the popular anticipations will be re-
allied. On the contrary, there is much
reason to believe that Prof. Koch's dis
covery will not have the far-reaching
potensy that the unframed public has,
with more enthusiasm than reason,
fastened to attribute to it. The
fact is, there is really very little
absolutely known about the subject.
Prof. Koch himself states that he is still
in the experimental condition with his
theory, and that at the most he feels
confident only of being able to cure pull
monary affections in their incipient
stage. That consumption, fully devel-
oped and firmly seated in the system,
can be cured, is not only uncertain, but
is as yet scarcely promised as possible.
There is undoubtedly much disappoint-
ment in store for thousands who have
built too hopefully while in ignorance of
the real character of Prof. Koch's dis
covery.
1t cannot be ignored that medical sci
ence, even in its most advanced phases,
is largely empirical. Even the hydro
phObia cure of Pasteur is not yet out of
the realm Of impeachment. We have al
most forgotten the Brown-Sequard elixir
of life, but that reputed discovery was
received with almost as much popular
enthusiasm as is now accorded to Prof.
Koch's theory and remedy. In this con-
nection, too, the mistake of Prof. Koch
himself, only short time ago, in identi-
flying the cholera microbe, may fairly be
taken into consideration. The lesson to
be learned from these and other Incl
dents Is that caution should be exercised
in formulating conclusive judgments
concerning theories that even their auth
ors claim are only experimental.
If Prof. Koch's discovery shall prove
to be all that he hopes for it, it does not
now offer much encouragement for the
cure Of serious cases of consumption.
That it tends in that direction may be
admitted; that it may in the end attain
to that blessed end is, of course, possible;
but at this time nothing more positive
can be said of it.
