TILE PRESIDENTS DECISION.

The action of the Administration i'll ordering
a twenty days quarantine OF vessels reaching
these shores from infected ports VIII be gen
orally approved, and it ought to put an end
+, any panic or undue alarm The
wisdom of this policy is attested by
so many considerations Of interest and en-
pedicncy that the Presidents action must
confirm public confidence in our ability to repcl
the grim invader Timidity or shortsghted-
ness might easily have dictated Immediate re-
sort TO extreme measures but President llar-
risOn while Enthusiastically alert and encr-
eetic in a crisis menacing seriously the public
welfare. sagaciously chooses conservative
middle course, that may be trusted surely To
effect the desired object, without violently de-
ranging present interests or Deedlessly stimu-
lating. popular apprehension.
A twenty days quarantine OF all passengers
from infected ports. or better still, Of all
Messengers from across the Atlantic, may rea-
sonably be expected to accomplish the desired
result in affording protection to the people
of this country. Storage passengers
are obviously to be viewed with the most sus-
picion. They emerge often from domestic
sonalor to undertake q fatiguing railroad jour
new in crowded cars to the port of departure.
There they communicate chiefly with others
in like circumstances and finally mingle in an
unhealthy steerage, to brave the physical dis
tress Of an ocean voyage. Poor food and an
enfeebled constitution naturally lend them an
easy prey TO outbreaks of disease and for us
now TO admit them here without rigid and
prolonged inspection would be suicidal. But
the Hamburg and St. Petersburg records do
not show that cholera spares the well-ts-de.

The situation will inevitably grow worse from

THE PECK REPORT IN BUFFALO

That report of Commissioner Peck, OF the
Nureau of Labor Statistics, is causing the De
mociacy Of this State M end OF distress. lheIr
Might would have been toimentihg enough II
Mr.. Peck had been Republican In that
event they could have had the quasi consolation
which goes with sneering at report as par
tisan.n and expressing distrust OF its figures.
But this consolation is denied them because OF
two cogent considerations. in the first place,
Mr.. Peck is Democrats and in the second,
he was appointed Commissioner OF the bureau
Of Labor Statistics by Governor Grover Cleyc-
land. II il Peck the Democratic official Peck
the Cleveland appontee who reports net
increase in wages for 1891 over 1890 OF nearly
sc 37s. 600. Ii is Peck the Democratic official,
Peck the Cleveland appointee, who reports a
net increase in production for 1891 over 1890
in sixty eight industries, employing $4,000
persons of 313l5,l3O.
