Free Fuel.


During the past few years gas for fuel
has made steady progress in the public
favor, the appliances for its use have been
improved and perfected. aud its economy
and cleanliness makes it most desirable
agent for cooking purposes.
Perhaps the most important economic
feature in this matter, however, is the re-
spective yield of meat cooked by gas or
coal. A fuel that gives US result OF its
use clear profit in the value of the pro-
duct over any other fuel employed would
commend itself unhesitatingly to the
thrifty and careful housewife. series
of interesting experiments were recently
made at the Franklin institute, showing
the great saving in the product where
gas WAS used as fuel. For instance, two
pounds of steak, the market value Of
which was 40c, broiled over Goals in the
ordinary manner resulted in a cooked
product weighing IL pounds, while 2
pounds of similar steak broiled under the
gas fame gave resultant product of l 3
pounds, saving one-third of a pound OF
steak of the value of SIC. The gas requir-
ed to cook the steak was 4 Cubic feet,
costing &c, making a saving over the
cost OF the gas in this operation of &C.
Similar experiments were made in roast
ing, baking and boiling, and the expert
ments showed that meat cooked in a coal
range yields 90 per cent of raw material,
while in gas range the yield is about %
per cent.

Cannibalisn in a Western Camp.

A horrible discovery has been made
In the mountains Of South Dakota, about
ten miles from the border, which indi-
Gates that a party of lost people have
been driven TO the dire extremity OF
feeding upon each other.
In deep canyon, where the camp
was sheltered from the storms, there
were found the remains of camp, and
at the fire, in the ashes, were several
bones and pieces of human body which
had been cooked and partly eaten.
There had evidently been five or six i'll
the party and three of them had been
killed to furnish food for the others, for
there were three skulls found, and from
their size it is evident that all Of them
were those of women or children, for
they were much smaller than the skull
Of a man. The bones of the legs and
arms were found. and to one leg bone
there was still a quantity Of cooked
flesh hanging. The survivors had evil
IDENTIFY got some other meat and left the
ndevoured part Of the last victim in
he fire, with the intention of burning
up, but the fire was put out by
1orm and discovery thus made possible.
1t is believed that the party originally
consisted Of two men. two women and
BOY, and that they passed through this
place last fail on their way To the west.
If such was the case the men have sac
rifced their companions in the attempt
at self preservation and are now alive.

MANDATES.

The words The great commanders said,
Were Uttered out of hearts of fame;
Each mandate like a bullet sped,
Nor ever missed its aim.
March on" and Follow me-" they cried,
And every hero took his place;
And so the weak and strong were tried
For glory or disgrace.
So while the endless battle lasts,
Words hot as fire shall summon men;
And battles fiery furnace blasts
Shall try them DER again.

A WEAK POINT.

A weak point in our system which
reserves to the States certain sovereign
rights is the failure to place the right to
declare an absolute sea quarantine within
the province of the Federal Government.
The situation to-day is that the President
has no power to declare absolute quaran-
tine against ships from cholera-infected
ports until he is appealed to by the local
health authorities Of the States Thus
single case OF weakness, inattention or
stupidity by the officials of any one coast
State may leave an open gateway for the
passage in Of the cholera, and the Federal
Government would be powerless to close
it.
This is a situation not pleasant to con-
template and suggests a change in the
system. Should President Harrison
disregard this weakness and by executive
order place ocean patrols along the coast
to warn off ships from pest ports, he will
be sustained by the judgment of all the
people. Had such an order been ia force
on Tuesday the Moravia would not have
been able to pass up New York Harbor
to within eight miles of the city's water
front.
Does anyone for moment believe that
a single human being in the United States
would have exclai.~yd ..4i.,st such
action by Federal authority because of
the State righ. Of New York to make
quarantine regulations? But, as we un-
deI~t,nd the law, Congress, under its
power regulate commerce, may pro-
tide 10 .,Osolute exclusion of ships car
ing the threat Of the plague, and this is
- legislation the people are now anx-
lous for, since the present menace proves
that there is need for stronger power,
one with broader jurisdiction and having
at command the means Of enforcing the
desired edicts of exclusion.
Better that naval line be drawn far at
sea, along our whole coast, and foreign
ships of all classes be forbidden entry
until inspection has been had; better
that commerce should wholly cease for a
season than that the Western Hemisphere
should be ravaged by the Asiatic cholera,
or the germs of the disease be planted
here to be revivified next spring and fill
the land with woe and death.
The record-union., 1892-09-03

THE statement that Canadian authori-
ties will take no steps to prevent the in
PRODUCTION of the cholera is more than
surprising. 1t almost renders futile the
efforts of our Government to keep out
the disease. No reasons are given for this
strange resolution by the Dominion au-
thorities, and none can be conjectured,
unless the Canadians propose to punish
the United States for the closing of the
st. Mary's Canal TO free passage of Cana
dian produce. 1t is very grave situa-
ton, certainly. To quarantine our coast
line while exposed through Canada with
her gates open, would seem to be almost
useless

A LITTLE over year ago the RECORD
UNION promoted public debate Of the
question of sewage disposal in Sacra-
mento. After the public had been aroused
we presented in full detail the scheme of
chemical treatment of our sewage, and
showed that the system is successful
wherever tried, and is economic. At
the time, owing to the indisposition of
the Trustees to even make pre-
hminary and costless examination, the
matter was dropped. To-day, with chol-
era threatening the United States and a
general cleaning up going on, it is dis
covered that our system of sewage is
very bad, practically useless for sanitary
purposes. Had proper action been taken
year ago to ascertain officially the facts
relative to the chemical system the people
would to-day be prepared to order the
work done. That not even official in
quiry was set on foot a year ago is any
thing but creditable. We might then
without dollar of cost had all the plans
of Worcester, which uses the system,
laid before us, and to-day be in position
to consider the question of ordering in
the system-a thing that must be done
sooner or later, and the sooner it is done
the less the cost and difficulty. The
RECORD UNION then pointed out that at
any time we might hear of the cholera
epidemic menacing the land, and that one
of the best prevendves, so far as Sacra-
mento is concerned, is chemical disposi-
ton of sewage.

NEWSPAPER sensationalism has never
gone to the extent, before the attempt of
the World reporter to board the cholera
ship Moravia, of putting a nation of
people at risk of the plague in order to
procure exciting news. These reporters
ought to have been shot by the quaran-
tine guard-at least, they should have
been sent to the quarantine station, and
kept there the full twenty days. 1t was
a stretch of mercy to set them free.
