ST. LOUIS, Sept. 16, 1892.

lived in Missouri for so many years
that ! have gotten to regard ali her
people almost as "blood relation,
and want to caution them about TAX
ing proper steps to guard themselves
against that most dreaded OF plaques,
the cholera. do no; anticipate that
IL will gain a foothold in this country
this year, but the prospects for next
year are good, indeed. Thorough
cleanliness, pure water and wholesome
food will not Ou!y prevent cholera,
but all other diseases Of a kindred
nature. Simple, common sense mode
of life is all that is necessary 10 pre-
mote happiness and health. Your
folks, with your magnificent location,
good water works system and wide
awake municipal government have
reason to feel safe. but every man,
woman and child should be commit
tee to look after the sanitary condi-
ton of the city. Make assurance
dou ,ly sure.
Taking about sanitary matters re-
minds me to say that st Louis is
Just now the most helpless victim of a
garbsge swindle in the whole U. S.
Brother.in-law Jim Hardy and his
swiil carts, once rulers of the city
health department, have given way to
BDss Butler and the Ne z system.
The work Of removing sIops and gar
bsge is more careIessly performed than
ever and the people pay ten times as
much for it, Il is claimed that every
man connected with the cd contract
is in with the new aud that the
mayors office has a big rake of.
How that is, / cannot say, but /
know that the work was never SO
bad y performed.
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
IL ST. Louis is to be seorganized,
rec instructed and harmonized. Guess
WI, are the self sppoiuted saviors,
the pure, self sacrificing patriots who
are to accomplish the regeneration.
Mayor E. A. NoonaD, City counsellor
w. G. Marhsall and the Illustrious
c. H. Jones, colonel by brevet and
editor Of the Republic" Par mobile
fra'rum.
Iddu't know that the party needed
reconstruction particularly bad my
impression was and is, that q little
purging is all that is needed. St.
L ,us democrats rank and fiie. are all
right and vote right and are in DO
way responsible tor the vsgaries of
men VINO assume to lead better and
.nore honest men than themselves. /
understand that Jones denies be has
any hand in the "new reform"
know he is in it as deep as either
Norman or Marshall.
Ths charity commissioners appear
determined to keep old man Gall CHER
out of The p or house very CHAIR
table on their part, no douot. but
Gallagher has the mayor ON his and
Sarah Anus side and 1 guess be will
stick.
STREET RAILWAY NEGLIGENCE.
The BAzoo gave its readers a full
account of the street railway accident
on Wednesday in this city, by which
one person was killed out right and
twenty others painfully injured,
several of whom may die. The BAzoo
does not say, however, and neither
does any et. Louis paper, that an &C.
-cident Of the kind has been and il
imminent at the any time in the same
: place. The grade of the street is 100
steep for electric or cable power. But,
it would cost something for the rail.
road company to reduce the grade or
to utilize another street. Human life
weighs nsught in the scale against
dollars. Tue history of Rapid Tran
sit in ST. Louis is writ in blood and so
sure as there is just Cd, some day
there will be fearful accounting by
the monopplists AMI the municipal
officials who strengthened their hands.
JHE AUTUMNAL FESTIVITIES
Strangers continue to pour into the
city and our streets begin to look like
carnival time. The young man from
the country and his girl parade Olive
street like S ,lom n and the Queen. of
of Sheba. arrayed 10 all their fnery.
Hotels and boarding houses are
crowded and business men are happy.
The Exposition is now in fine order.
