GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS.

In the death of George William Curtis
announced elsewhere, the country loses
one of its literary men and journalists of
longer standing than any others of equal
prominence. Mr. Curtis made bis first
mark in literature before any of the lead
ing politicians of to-day had attained more
than local reputation. No prominent
writer of the day was known when he
came before the public with 'Nile Notes"
and "Potiphar Papers except Oliver
Wendell Homes and Whittier He was
active in newspaper and magazine work
in the early fifties; while his acceptance
of the editorial management of Rarper's
Weekly in 1857 was the immediate cause
of bringing that publication into sympa-
thy with the anti-slavery movement and
the active support of the Government
during the war.
The distinguishing qualities of Mr.
Curtis literary work were fuish and con-
scientiousness, and the same qualities
controlled his public attitude. His pol
isbed diction and careful efforts in both
writing and speaking, supplemented by
fastidious and scrupulous attributes in his
political convictions, earned some jeerS
from men of more haphazard methods and
coarser political motives. Such things
neither affected Mr.. Curtis course nor de-
tracted from his usefulness. He held the
high position of a commentator Of public
affairs whose honor and truth were above
suspicion and whose political convictions.
however they might be differed from, were
above impeachment as to their sincerity.
Mr.. Curtis was that man of many talents
so evenly balanced as to prevent him from
being great in any one line. As a novelist
his success WAS moderate. His news
paper work had not the burning yigor that
makes Greeley. His most positive rank
was attained in his essays and lectures.
Yet it was the combili ton of all these
qualities that gave George William Curtis
the useful and really imposing character
that he, finally developed He was of
type all too rare, and is one whom the
country can ill afford to lose,

induce others to raise prices or withhold
goods from market in order to accomplish
that end. A combination which attempts
that was defined by Chief Justice Gibson
two generations ago as a criminal con-
spiracy. Chancellor McGill simply made
the last of an unbroken line of decisions
from Sir Edward Coke down, including
three prominent cases by the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, two by the New
York Court of Appeals, two by the Ohio
Supreme Court and several by the United
States courts.
Under these circumstances the talk of
taking away the property of the anthra-
cite combination is a striking example OF
the rogue's bad opinion of the law. When
the combination by illegal agreements
makes a consumer pay ten dollars more
for winters coal than he would have to
pay under free competition it takes his
property away from him by illegal means.
That is not tine only method by which law
defying corporations take the property of
individuals. The case of Coke Bros. IL
lustrates practice by which many inde-
pendent operators have been wiped out
and their property taken from them at the
corporations own valuation.
No one proposes to take the property of
corporations from them unless they for
felt it by misuse and abuse. But it is
time to suppress the illegal acts and pur-
poses of these which do not respect pub
lie policy as sternly and sharply as we
would suppress the lawless acts of work
men on a strike.

STOP IT NOW.
The Flood of Immigration Now "a Menace
to Public Health.

The Flood of Immigration Now u Menace
to Public Health.
Pittsburg Press.
In spite of the attempts in some quarters
to convey the impression that cholera is not
so bad in Hamburg and other infected cities
as has been represented, it is well under
stood that the epidemic is raging with terri
BILE violence across the seas, and that it will
be almost miracle If this country escape.
London has several cases now, the direct
consequence of allowing people to land from
a Hamburg vessel The lesson to US is obvi-
ous, and it should be acted on before it is too
late. 1t is simply to suspend immigration
altogether SO long as hordes of foreigners
are allowed to come into the country every
week at New York aud other ports. so long
shall we be inviting the Asiatic cholera to
come, too.
The quarantine regulations are good, and
will exercise powerful influence in pre-
venting some dangerous persons and things
from getting into the United States. But
they will not overcome the danger alto
gether. The way to do that is to strike at
the very root of the evil and to forbid abso-
lutely the landing of steerage passengers
until the winter has fairly set in. Had this
regulation prevailed at English ports, 1t is
possible there would not be any cases of
cholera in London to-day. After the disease
shall have got a foothold in the United
States, we may hear the wondering cry:
"Why were immigrants allowed to come in,
when we knew they might bring the germs
of disease with them7'
Quarantine ana fumigation are very vel
in their way, but they can hardly be termed
preventive measures when the disease has
got here. Prompt stoppage of immigration
may help us now. In another week-another
day-it may be too late.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-09-01
THE LESSON OF THE NEWS.

Last nights cabled messages from
Europe indicate that the cholera epidemic
grows in severity Recent news from
Hamburg to the effect that the alta elk
there was subsiding was either due to
suppressal of fact or the conditions have
changed to renewed activity in the attack
and severer loss of life than before. A
large part-if not all-the loss of life in that
immense port is due to gross municipal
mismanagement The disease was ad-
mitted through defective quarantine. 1t
found welcome in insanitary neighbor
hoods And its ravages are being aided
by misdirected red-tapism that delays
the burial of the diseases victims. The
epidemic has obtained such foothold
that the wealthy and cleanly are now
attacked by the germs which found their
first resting place among the poor and
dirty.
Hlmburg is in every particular an ex-
ample of what America should not do.
With suca an example before us there
must be no hesitation in prohibiting en-
tirely all immigration, cleaning up and
setting to rights the sanitation of every
city, borough and township, and Of franz
ing set of regulations in preparation for
the possible arrival of the epidemic which
shall be based upon common sense and
not on roundabout officialiSm.

MIR. HARRITY,s ABSENCE.

The plan by which Mr.. Harrity, Secre-

the duties for which he draws S13,G coo a
year from the State, and to give the rest

is not working with exceptional success.
1t is reported that the Republican and
Democratic chairmen for this State have
been trying to get an interview with him
for some time with regard to the arrange
ments under the new ballot law, but up
TO date they have not succeeded in so
doing.
The office of Secretary of the Common
wealth is located at Harrisburg, a pleas
ant little city on the banks of the Susque-
hanna. But inquiries for the Secretary at
that place have proved futile. Its stated
that he has been at the Office once since
he assumed an active connection with the
Democratic campaign. The State chair
men have made several attempts to
catch MI. Harrity in Philadelphia, but
with unvaryingly bad success; until it
seems as if the only way to do business
with the Secretary of the Commonwealth
is to 60 outside the State of Pennsylvania
and transact it at Democratic headquar-
tiers, in the State and city of New York.
This concatenation of circumstances
carries the moral that the plan of doing
party service and drawing a large salary
for official services at one and the same
time does not always work. Either the
party work or the public work is sure to
be neglected. and in the case of poll
ticiau like Mr.. Harrity it requires no es-
pecial gift of foresight to know that the
public will get left. 1t is possible that as
Mr. Harrity first proposed, the work for
which be gets large salary can be done

WAUKEsHA, Wis, Aug. 3L-Toward the
latter part of September James L. Babcock,
of Ann Arbor. Mich, will be several hull
dred thousand dollars richer than he is now.
1t will all be brought about by q wedding
in which he will be one of the principal
figures, the other contracting party being
Miss Ella Stanley Butler, of this city. In
1889 James Lane, a wealthy uncle OF Mr..
Babcock, died in Ann Arbor. Mr.. Lane in
his will, after comfortably providing for all
of his relatives, including Mr. Babcock,
made provisions that the residue of his es-
tate, amounting to several hundred Thousand
dollars, should be held intact for five years. If
before the end of the five years his nephew,
James L. Babcock, had married, he was to
receive tho entire estate; otherwise it was
to be divided among all of the heirs, includ-
ing Mr.. Babcock.
Nearly every newspaper in the count try
noticed this strange will, and, as a result,
Mr. Babcock was the recipient OIL hundreds
of letters from maids willing to share the
fortune with him. The bride was born at
New Haven Conn.,, and for n time lived at
st. Johns, Mich. Of years she has lived
in Waukesha with her stepmother.

Health officer Veale says that if he were

a proclamn ton to-day prohibiting all immi-

of Great Britain to keep cholera out OF
England, Scotland and Wales, IN all of
which countries it is reported to have found
lodgment, confirms Major Veale's opinion
that safety is only to be found in the entire
prohibition Of immigration. The Western
States are foremost in asking for an entire
prohibition Of immigration, and such action
would have the approval of the country.

A CORPORATE MISREPRESENTATION.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, which dis
putes with the once-independent Record
the position of special advocate of the
Reading deal, has indulged in another
blast at Chancellor McGiIl, of New Jer-
sey, for his answering declaration of the
law. The deliberation with which this is
produced permits the inference that it is
inspired. Whether it is directly so or not,
the spectacle OF an organ of monopolistic
combination attacking judge for assert
ing well-settled principles of law is ex-
ceedingly suggestive.
The Inquirer asserts that the New Jer-
sey decision 'Is based on theories that
have never before, SO far as we know, re-
ceived the sanction of court" If so, it is
exceedingly ill-informed; but its further
remarks permit a question whether the
assertion is due to ignorance or deliberate
Misrepresentation. For it goes on to state
as the Chancellor's theories that they are
the same with regard to coal as Mr.. Henry
Georges with regard to land; that he thinks
coal must be free to the extent that it
must not be put up; and the sum total of
this argument is that che would take
away from the miners, railroad employees
and stockholders of Pennsylvania in order
to give to different set of workers and
capitalists in New jersey"
All of which is raising the cry of ''stop
thief" in order to divert attention from
the real pickpocket. 1t is weIl-settled
principle of Anglo-Saxon law that, while
any individual has the right to ask what
he chooses for his goods, or to withhold
them from market, he has no right to
make any agreement or combination to
