The lines are drawn and the fight lie
Cholera.

II is enough to give anybody the chol-
era to read the scientific opinions on the
subject-it is indeed. One fellow has
been trying to find out in his mind
whether the sickness this summer is
cholera autochthonous, characterized by
endemicity, or whether it is cholera
Asiatica, characterized by epidemicity.
No doubt it is.
Meantime it is sufficient for common
people to know that every now and then
nature gets enraged at the human race
on account of its filth. meanness and
foul air and simply clears it out, some
times by cholera, again by typhus fever,
yellow fever, black plague, diphtheria
and other things. When these occasions
come it is always the dirty, overcrowd
ed portions of the great cities that suffer
first and most. Then the pestilence
skips and attacks clean people in other
places, country and city.
Cholera is at ports in Europe whence
many of our immigrants come-Havre
Hamburg, Antwerp and Stettin. In Ham
burg it attacked the old part of the city
the poor, dirty quarters. There is not
much likelihood that the plague will be
here in force this season, though it may
fall upon us next summer. Frost kills
the germs. Meantime we are sufficiently
warned to clean up and disinfect. Soap,
water, chloride of lime, carbolic acid
are excellent disinfectants. Sewer pipes
and their contents are nests of the dis
ease. So are the horrible outhouses
usually found about farms and villages.
Finally scare and panic are a main
cause Of death by cholera. If cholera
ever comes your way, clean up and
think of what Grant said when some
body told him he was in danger Of
assassination, what you are not afraid
of won't hurt you"
In November, 1865, a case of cholera
was brought to New York from Havre.
In April it appeared IN the city itself.
Altogether, during the summer of 1866,
some 1000 persons died of the plague in
and about New York and Brooklyn.
Many Of these were emigrants attacked
on shipboard, coming over After ex-
posture to cholera the disease develops,
if it is going to, in from one to three
days. Patients in Hamburg this sum-
mer have died within an hour after be-
ing stricken. The best precautions
against it are--keep absolutely clean.
breathe pure air and drink pure water.
Eat no unripe or rotten fruit or any
tainted meat, and do not eat too much
of anything. Keep your head on, keep
cheerful and go about your work as
usual.

COMMISSIONER PECK's LOYALTY.

COMMISSIONERS PECK's LOYALTY.
Since the appearance OF the report OF
Labor Commissioner Peck of New York,
showing how wages have increased in
that state under the Mckinley tariff,
the free traders have tried in many
ways to break the force OF his figures.
Juggling with them did no good and
they finally gave it up as bad job.
Their only remaining recourse was to
attack the good faith OF the commits
sioner. and that they have done. They
now allege that he is HIPS man, and
that he made DIP his report to put
stone in Mr.. Cleveland's shoe in his
race for the white house. No doubt it
is serving that purpose, but not by any
collision on Mr.. Peck's part. 1t is
clearly proved over his own signature
that he began his Investigation in full
faith that it would be a good Demo-
cratic campaign document, and that he
is Democrat in his opposition to pro-
lection. Under date of May 10th last,
when his recent report was alre ady I'M
der way, he wrote letter to his former
partner, the editor of the Hornellville,
n. Y. Evening Tribune, which was re-
Gently published by that paper. After
some reference to other matters, he
says that when his report comes out all
the protection papers will have to stand
from under; that he is tabulating the
data and statistics of his industrial
state census for the year before and the
year after the Mckinley law went into
effect, and that it will furnish a com
plete refutstion of the theories OF the
protectlonists in regard to wages.
Since then Commissioner Peck has
completed his tables and made them
public. The whole country knows the
result. Probably he is as much as
tonisbed as any one else, but as an Off
cial statistician he is Of course bound to
give the facts as he finds them. 1t is to
his credit that be has not allowed his
Democratic preiudices to affect his
problem Of facts and figures. The free
traders will have to hunt new hole to
crawl through.

CUNCERNING FOGIEs.

The assertion by morning contem-
porary of elastic political conscience,
that Hon. John Y. T. Smith is an old
fogy and that Tom Smith is bright,
progressive business man, don't make
it so. People have not yet been edu-
Gated up to the idea that a man may
prostitute his convictions and sell him
self in the public highway for coin,
sufficiently to credit all that the Gazette
says. II the morning paper had been
conscientious and wanted to spe ak the
truth it might have said that Tom
Smith was successful business man,
but made his start OF life in line OF
goods which the Gazette for period Of
time was engaged in boycotting. 1t
might have said that Tom Smith
weighed over 200 pounds and was Il
pretty good specimen OF averdupois and
made no reference to mis- brain. 1t
might further have given him the
credit of being me OF the smoothest
wire pulling pJll.icians in the territory
and man wlp principally aims IT,

All this could have been said without
insulting the truth, and as il is general
ly known to be the truth it would have
given the Gosetts some standing in the
religious world. It's too early in the
campaign to begin lying. That always
shows shortage OF truth. 1t is sure
indication that candidate is not rest
ing on an easy foundation and he
wishes to divert the ardent gaze OF the
public in another direction while hH
shifts his position.

The words of Shakespeare, "One
touch of nature makes the whole world
kim" were never more forcibly illus
trated than in the case of the paralyzed
newsboy who sits in a wheel chair on
the corner of Fifth avenue and Twenty
Slird street He first made his appear
ance there about two years ago, and his
wan, pinched face plainly indicated
that he had long been an invalid.
The newsboys all sympathize with
him. They help him fold aud arrange
his papers. On warm days they take
turns tanning him, carry his little fold
ing table and assist him in various
ways.
One day during the late hot spell II
ragged urchin with a bundle of papers
under his arm, barefooted and dirt be-
grimed and carrying tin pail in his
hand, walked up to the cashiers window
in q store not far from where the cripple
sits. Rapping on the window he at
tracted the attention of the casEic-, and
as he stood on his tiptoes he handed in
his pail, while smile as bewitching as
any society belle is capable of encircled
his dirty face, displaying a set of teeth
pearly white and as beautiful as nature
could form them. His large, lustrous,
sparkling black eyes caught those of the
cashier, and he said, "Say, mister, der
lame bloke what sells papers in de wagon
on der corner wants drink of ice water. II
AS the man who handles the cash
passed out the pail of water the juvenile
remarked, Tanks, mister; YOU know
der kids awful lame and can't walk"
The New York newsboy is rough
slangy, harum scarum, devil-may- care
and often miscellaneous individual, but
generally his heart is in the right place.

The jap swallowed til. snake.

A wonderful story reaches us from
Japan of snake swallower who has
outdone all forerunners in the art. One
called Saito Tora-no-suke was one day
breaking up some land, when he came
upon snake three feet long, Selling
it in his hands he called out to his COM
panions that if they would give him four
dollars he would swallow the snake.
Although dollars are scarce in Japan it
is stated that the money was at once
subscribed, the onlookers not believing
that the bet would be won.
But, true to his word, Saito put the
head of the creature into his mouth and
swallowed the whole three feet of snake
without difficulty. The punishmeIit of
his temerity was swift and fell. While
his companions were gazing at him,

he was seen to change color and fall to
the ground in great pain, and he died in

THE Tucson Ciiizen gives this good
advice: eve earnestly recommend
that the next legislature enact law
making it incumbent upon every man
to pay his poll tax, under the pen
atty of Acknowledgement. As matters
now stand fully one-third of the voters
avoid, if possible, payment OF the poll
tax, and there is no penalty for so do
ing. In justice to the citizens who do
pay the tax in question, law should
be passed denying the right of suffrage

shirks the responsibility OF legitimate

Famine in Russia and India; anarch-

completely, endeavoring to compensate
for it by making other people lose

the heat has been torrid beyond de-

died by the hundred, soldiers have

the usual military maneuvers in Austria
were omitted on account of it, In Lon

have died and been killed. In order to
