CHOLERA FOR WORLDS FAIR.
German Exhibits Being Shipped by Way Of
the Infected Port of Hamburg.

BERLIN. Nov. 13.-The sending of Ger
way of Hamburgis said to have caused no
little uneasiness among persons at Chicago.
1t is feared. letters received here say. that
in this manner cholera germs may reach
the Garden City. In view OF the gravity
of the situation 1t was thought wise to as
certain the extent TO which these fears
were justified. Privy Councillor Wermuth,
imperial German commissioners to the
worlds fair, told the correspondent that 1t
was true that most OF the German exhibits
were sent by way of Hamburg. He said
that 1t was the most convenient way and
that there was no danger whatever.
1T 10 out of the question:" said he, that
goods or MERCHANDISE passing through
Hamburg should carry cholera germs. 1t
has never been known that new goods car
RED such germs. Cholera NAV be spread
by human beings or by the soiled clothing
or linen of cholera patients. but never by
goous packed In wooden cases. by iron or
stone. We knew these facts before. and
the recent Hamburg epidemic has simply
confirmed our opinion that only through
contact with infected persons or their
clothes could cholera be spread"
Ii Chicago will take the proper steps to
keep people from infected districts away
from the fair she need fear no invasion of
that disease. though the German exhibits
are carried through Hamburg.
Mr.. johnson, the United States consul at
Hamburg, was in Berlin recently. having
come hero to take his family back TO Ham,
burg-a sign. by the way. that the danger
has passed. tor the present, ut least.
Consul Johnson said that not q single
package was allowed to leave Hamb burg for
America without thorough disinfection.

session OF Congress to repeal the Mckinley

THE ARIZONA KICKER.
The Editor Speak. frankly of His Work In
the Campaign.

A SUMMING UP.-For the last four
months the Mayor of this town who il
oufsel0 and the editor and proprietor OF
the Kicker who is also ourselD has been
before the electors of this senatorial dis
trict as q candidate tor State Senator. Now
a little summing up.
Frst-The Office did not seek rs, but we
laid our pipes and made a successful grab
at 1t. The idea that the Office should seek
the man was all right in the year $50 y. c..
but 1t hasn't been worth shucks In this
country since Christopher Columbus dis
covered 1t. That was what allied us for
about ten years-we were waiting for some
office to seek us. and We W ore mighty poor
clothes and didn't sit down to square
meal once a week.
Second-HavinQ sought and secured the
nomination. we planted Onr wires for pull
in every direction. The fact that we are
honest respectable and all o. X. as men
run. and that the opposition couldn't even
get up n decent lie about us. was all right
to a certain point. Beyond that we had TO
shell out cash. tap keg of whisky here
and there, and promise to take care of
about fifty heelers who really ought to be
doing time.
Third-Up TO date we have been shot at
four times; two attempts have been made
to assassInare us; we have been bom-
barded with cats. rabbits. eggs and other
fruits OF this prolific soil; two attempts
we have received three internal machines
and twepty-one threatening epistles. On
the other hand, we have wounded two of
the opposition who have doubted our ve-
racity when we were lying. and fired at
three others who got away. We have
aided to break up three meetings, licked
two OF the opposition speakers aud kept
such a corner on the kerosene market that
only our side could hold torchight pa
rades.
Fourth-We have used every eflors TO
down the opposition and get there with
both feet and we know that we are solid
Had il been left to us at the outset we
should have preferred a quiet campaign
with no shooting. We should have elected
to go before the people as "A humble citizen

virtues. We should have refused to buy
up the old soakers or come down with O
dollar for u corruption fund. The poiiti-
clans wouldn't have it that way. however
We were In the hands of our friends. and
into the campaign.
We feel q bit sorry for the opposition
candidate. While he was totally unit for
the office and should never have been nom-
mated. he has put in his time and money
and will BIO left dead broke and completely
discouraged by the result. We also feel
sorry for she good men among the opposi-
ton. They have lied about u.s. shot a us,
vilitied US, and whooped il npin various
ways as duty they owed the party. 1t
was going it rather strong when they de-
clared that our father was han ged for mur-
der and our mother used to br a beer
singer. but it was in the line of duty and
only what might be expected in politics.
