The cholera situation continues reas-
surfing. There have been no new cases in
New York for several days, and the dis
ease in Europe seems to be gradually
abating. Cooler weather, which can soon
be counted on, will doubtless prove an
effective agent in arresting the progress
of the disease.

achieved during the first three
quarters Of this year a very
large measure of success.
The causes that have operated

to determine.
Summed up, they are as fol-

Increasing public confidence
in the smaller and more cOnser-

The desire to obtain the best

The knowledge that the poll

against her, it shows that some of these
people do not have a correct conception
of their duty. tits undoubtedly the
business of officers of the law TO gather
all the evidence they can bearing en- the
case, but it is not their duty, but an on
rageous transgression of their duty, to
lay it before the public, before it is sifted
by competent tribunal. 1t is not the
business of the officials to convict Miss
Borden, their business is to see as far as
in them lies that justice is done, and
therefore it is their duty to refrain from
doing anything which will tend to create
public sentiment against her. as much
as public sentiment in her behalf The
publication of such stories as that print
ed in the Fall River Globe tends strongly
to her prejudice, and if any official in
spired it or connived at it he deserves
punishment.
