party of several ladies and a gentleman
visited the capitol not long ago, and while there
an incident happened which caused more ner-
rimens among tbs CLERKS and employees in the
building whom they heard of II than ANYTHING
else cas- for long time. rel stes writer in the
Htrford COunun.. Tee party were from New
YORK. and as they wandered about the "a Oitol
one OF tue young ladies seemed TO take an
especial delight "a trying 70 show her coupaa-
compared with that at Albany In the course
OF their " 1derings about the building they
entered the Senate chamber, where Stua-t's
nne portrait OF Gen. Washington hangs and the
wouia;oe smart young lady, glancIng at it,
asked IN a sarcastic tone:
Whose portrait is that?'
One Of the clerks in the building happened
20 DO standing near, and overheard the question
and supposnz that the young lady was joking
he volunteered the information that It was
her, and she was innocence itself until she
noticed an amused smile on the faces OF her
companions When she inquired the cause one
of them replied

The young lady took second lock at the
portrait, and then blushed furiOusly as she re-
We'll. it's such daub no wonder 1 didn't
recognize him."
But now it was the clerks turn. He couldn't
stand by and hear that portrait one of the finest
10 existence of Washington called a 'daub,"
and he, therefore informed the young lady that
Her own state of New FORK had offered $4,000
LOT that very painting to hang in the capitol at
Albany, and tue offer had been refused. The
young lady now began to feel decidedly uncom-
Portable and cast about for some way of escape
from her predicament Suddenly she seemed
to see ray of hoI and exclaimed:
II must have been looking at the picture in a
bad light"
With that she walked some distance to one
side, where after pretending to scrutinize the
picture closely from that better point of view,
she added
ably fine likeness isn't it?''
It is probable that hereafter she will acknowl-
edge that even away out here in the country
there are some things which the great state of
New York wants very much but can't have for
love or money. 1t is possible also that she may
recognize the face of Washington when she sees
it again.

How Disease Germs Are Carried.

1t is apparent that there is a great deal
for medical science to discover relative to
the methods of transporting disease germs
and the precautions necessary to lessen the
danger from them. The man who was at
tackled by Asiatic cholera in London the
other day was strong and apparently in the
best of health for two days after he
reached London. 1t was thought
strange that he should have been
attacked by the disease so long after he had
left India Inquiry developed the fact,
however, that on his arrival in London he
put on Undertaking which he had pur-
chased In India, and which he had not taken
out of his trunk until he arrived in London.
The theory is that the cholera germs were in
the undertaking, and the man became in
fected with them when he put it on. The
theory seems to be very reasonable, and
probably is the correct one.
There is now sailor suffering from yell
low fever at the government quarantine
station on Chandelier island, off the mouth
of the Mississippi river. He was one of the
crew of the Spanish bark Castillo, from
Clenfuegos This ship was twelve days on
the voyage to Pascagoula, where she re-
NAMED six days discharging ballast 1t
seems to be clear that the man did not con-
tract the fever in Cientuegos. If he had it
would have shown itself during the voyage
The disease germs were undoubtedly in the
ballast, and the man contracted the fever
while the ballast was being discharged.
In speaking Of this case DR.. Carter, of the
marine hospital service, said that it illus
trated two points: First, the danger that
may lie in vessels with no sickness upon or
before her arrival in port, the dunnage,
ballast or cargo being infected and disease
contracted only when this is disturbed
Second, the futility of counting quarantine
detention from any date save that of the
completion Of disinfection, i. g., last expos
IRE to possible infection" According to DR..
Carter's opinion, therefore, and it appears
to be very sound one, the period of deten-
ton Of vessels at quarantine, which are
from infected ports, should date from the
time that disinfection is finished and not
from the time of their arrival in port

THE TRADE REVIEW.

For years, on the opening of each sue
ceeding season, there has been presented
evidence of large increase in Savannahi
business. Heretofore this increase has beer
due TO the natural growth of Savannah'
tributary territory, better understanding
of her commercial advantages, and the
gradual enlargement of her two great rail-
road systems. These things will continue tc
contribute to her growth and prosperity,
and, in addition to them, there are others,
which have recently come into existence,
that will make the business year of 1S90-91
more notable than any preceding one in her
history.
Since the last trade review of the MORN
ING NEWS there have been built three new
and important railroads TO Savannah, or to
connect with her railroad systems. They
are the Alabama Midland. the Savannah
and Western, and the Savannah, Americas
aud Montgomery. These railroads have
already brought hundreds of buyers to
But the number of buyers and the amount
of trade which these new railroads will
contribute to her markets when the crops
now in the fields tributary to them are
harvested will be many times larger. The
people will have money then and they will
seek Savannah to supply their wants.
The advanced condition of the cotton crop
justifies the opinion that the business season
will open early and with great activity.
The people are already thinking, probably,
of what they will buy with the fruits of
their labor. They are scanning the columns
of the MORNING NEWS TO SEQ who are the
live and progressive business men of Savan-
nah and what they are offering for sale
There is large and lucrative trade to be
secured from the territory which the new
railroads have made tributary to Savan-
nah, as well as from the territory which has
heretofore been tributary to her. If our
merchants are wise they will not neglect the
only proper method of getting this trade
That method is liberal advertising
The MORNING NEWS proposes to make a
special effort to reach every buyer in the
new field that has been opened by Savan-
nah'S enterprise. The agents of the MORN
ING NEWS are travelling through the coun-
try, and the people are taking the paper
just as rapidly as the mail facilities which
are being established permit them to-

An advertisement in a newspaper is an in
vitation to buyers to call. 1t virtually says,

resume of the business of the city for thu
last year. 1t will be sent to thousands o
people who are interested in Savannah
welfare and prosperity

now pending before the Senate than to
refer to their Interpretation of the super
yiscr's law here ct the last election,
That law was put on ii . statute books
with the same show of sincerity, the same
proposals, promises and professions Of
fairness justice. and for the correction Of
the same alleged evils that the Force
bill 10 now urged to correct. 1t was
advocated as q means Of promoting fair
elections under the supervision Of honest
and impartial men appointed from
both political parties to prevent frauds
The scheme and plan OF the law was
fair and % some degree commendable. II
was passed for just es good purposes as
the Republicans are now proposing for
the Force bill But il the hands Of Bach,
Mahaily and Cotton, what that law be
came in practical application here on
November 4, IS q sample OF what the par
tissns Of the Republican party, who are
urging the Force bill, expect OF It in prsc-
tical application.
In this connection II will be well
to remember that Speaker Reed Is one Of
the most ardent advocates Of the Force
bill. Speaker Reed has showed that he
has either no conception or no respect for
either fairness or justice. As he pre-
sided with the most extreme intensity of
craftsmanship ever known in Congress or
in any other legislative body ever
known In Christendom, so those
appointed under the Forces bill
would deem themselves warranted
in the same intense and unreasonable
partisanship with which Bach, Mahaffy,
Cotton and their like, justified and en-
couraged by such men seemingly beside
themselves with political frenzy as
spruance, Nields and Bird. applied the
law for the appointment Of Federal super.
visors.
Those deputy marshs.s appointed by
MahRffY were not intended TO promote
fair election. Mahaffy himself never
intended TO be fair. Those who we're en-
gagged with him in the conduct OF
the election never Intended 70
be fair. The herded, insolent
hoOting negroes gathered at the polls: the
conduct OF the Republican managers
some Of them under Indictment and some
Of them fled and the result Of the cleo

John w AyGon or his assistant lineman,
Robert F Haley, Aydon is elected by

to Apo Mt Republicans to fll the positions

II both sides are firm, The mayor could

some irregular way in which Council
