New YORK, Sept. 25.-Rev. DR.. Thomas
Dixon, before his sermon to-day, spoke
OF a lesson Americans should learn from
the appearance of cholera. He said in
part: ''The sudden appearance of Asiatic
cholera carries with it a startling mes
sage. We have been taught that pot
house politics is poor training for the
health officials. Say what we will about
the efficiency of our quarantine, its
methods have been tumble of stupidity
and brutality. with scarcely trace of ex-
ecutive ability. The conduct of this bus
mess nationally has not only been a dis
grace to the American Nation, but a
stigma on the history Of the Anglo-SaXon
race. and for this we must thank our pot
house politicians, whose life principally
is to the victor belongs the spoils.' We
have learned that there are great steam
ship companies who don't hesitate to sell
the health of 100000 people in America
Tor the price of a steerage passage of a
few hundred poverty-stricken refugees
Every city in America is at the mercy OF
New York.
Let our brethren in other cities re-
member this when they apologize for and
excuse the villainies of Tammany Hall
for the sake of the vote of the gang at the
polls in Presidential election. Tam
many Hall is not simply local disgrace
1t may be national scourge. What is
the sense in moving heaven and earth to
quarantine a few victims of pest-ridden
Hamburg and at the same time open wide
our gates to John Most and Bergman.
Why buy an island to quarantine 500
healthy American citizens and open the
gates to thousands who formed the mobs
at Haymarket Square, delivered New
Orleans to a reign of assassins and called
forth an army in Pennsylvania and New
FORK to restore order. Does any think
ing man doubt, IN view of recent events,
that these steamship companies are in

Johnson has been removed from the Con-

that he was wounded in various battles of
the war and his health impaired. The re-
cent charges of fraudulent accounts,
which were substantiated, led to an inves-
tigation of his military service. which
showed that he did not participate in the
battles alleged, and his claim as to wounds
were entirely unfounded.
