There are some among the Eighteenth
street property holders who are disposed
to oppose the paving Improvement pro-
vided for by the council on that thorough
fsre. The opposition is not due to a
spirit Of antagOnism to paving improve
ments, but because there is feeling that
Eighteenth street Is not so much in need
of pavement just at this time as Seven
teenth, the first named street having bee n
mscadamized recently and is in passably
good condition, whereas Seventeenth
needs attention and the argument is pre-
sentod that while the city is about it, it
might as well make first class job of it,
the Eighteenth street project being held
of meanwhile for another year.

can be done, we will with the paving

THE HUMBUG CONGRESS

Judged by the record of its work,
the Fifty-second congress must stand
confessed a failure and humbug.
None of its predecessors can show as
bare and meagre list of things ac-
complished. The first session has UNI
doubtedly proved the greatest failure
in the history of the government.
Not single promise made by DEM
Ocrats during the campaign two years
ago was fulfilled.
1t promised rigid economy in the
matter of appropriations, and yet
proved to be the most extravagant
session since the foundation of the gov
eminent. 1t appropriated $5O,O0O,00O
more money than did the first session
of the preceding congress which the
Democracy so loudly denounced as the
"billion dollar congress-"
1t did not repeal, or even attempt to
repeal the Mckinley bill as it prom
ised.
Briefly and with great terseness Con-
gresham Watson, an Alliance men,
Der from Georgia, has summed up the
career of this congress:
Pledged TO reform, they have not re-
formed. Pledged TO economy, they have
not economical. Pledged to legislate,
they have not legislated. Extravaganza
has been the order of the day, Absentee
ism was never so pronounced. Lack Of
purpose was never so clear. lack of COM
mon business prudence never more glar-
ing. Useless employees crowd every cor
ridor Useless expenditures prevade every
What a spectacle for the law makers
of this great nation in their legislative
Watson is right. The hand
writing is oil the wall. The sober peo-
pie of this country will in November
next make amends for the folly of two
years ago and elect a majority of Re
publicans.

| ness convulsed with a most terrible Anguish
upon drawing his Breath.
The Cure has hitherto If you except few
Cases. been very doubtful and unsettled. and
not only the Therapeutic, but also the Prophy-
Tactic. The first and chief reason of this is
the vain Boosting of many having specifick
Remedies and then the Neglect of a Method,
which might be deduced from the Known
nature Of the disease.
A few lines are then devoted to the
development of the disease and the ne
cessity of adopting a rational treatment,
and the book continues:
The Method to preserve one that is bit from
farther Harm requires:
First-That Immediately after the Poison Is
communicated, the whole affected Place, to-
gether with the surrounding, be Immediately
scarifed very deep and Blood be drawn TO a
great Quantity by Means of large Glasses laid
over the scarified Parts, or the same be burned
deep with a red hot Iron; then the Part be
made to suppurate for a long while by means
of such things as ulcerate by their constant
COrrosiveness. In the meantime, from the Be
ginning of the Cure to the End, foment the
Parts with Pickle made Of Baysalt and Vim
egar, and these things ought to be continued
till over the sixth Month from the first Acct
dent.
Second-The Clothes and other things which
may have been touched with the Poison, or
that the mad Animal has breathed upon, ought
to be laid aside and carefully avoided.

known he ought 70 be thrown and hurried
into great Frights, using even violent Threats,
TO be thrown unawares into the Sea or River,
TO be held some time under Water, and dipped
again, repeating this several times with the
same Circumstances. For that this Submer-
sion cures no other ways than by the prodi-
gious Disturbance it occasions in the Spirits,
and not by the Quality of the salt Water, Is
too well known from what has happened 20
those poor Wretches, who in helping to hold a
Patient in this Case under Water were bit by
him; for they have not escaped the highest
degree Of HydrOphoba Notwithstanding they
would fall TO swimming and TO ducking in salt
Water for many Hours from the Moment they
felt themselves bit, thinking thereby to pre-
vent all Harm. Let him afterward be purged
often and very strongly with Rhubarb,
Agarick and the Juice Of Elder Bark
Fourth-Let him be made to sweat every
morning fasting by giving him some spiced
Vinegar, with Bay Salt and plenty of hot Wa
ter.
Fifth-Let him wash and battle daily his
Hands and Feet. his Head and Mouth, and
swim often.
Sixth-Let him frequently drink cold Water,
and as often vomit il up again; after which let
what he drinks be calculated or made sharp.
Let his Diet be moist, light, loosening and often
in such Quantity till he vomits II up again.

POLITICS IN THE EAST

Few men in the country are so well
qualified to speak intelligently of the
political situation in the East as Colonel
John A. Cockerill, the well-known
journalist who was for years the man.
ageing editor of the New York World,
the leading organ of the Cleveland
Democracy. The New York Herald
quotes him as follows:
For once we have presidential cam
paign which opens with no declaration of
political charges on the part OF distn-
guished men. have watched the news
papers carefully, but II there is any dis
position to shift on the part of prominent
citizens there are no outward signs.
THE Democratic leaders talk of a great
silent vote which will be given to Mr.
Cleveland. As absolute silence attends
this class of voting, the indications are
not yet visible.
THE silence Of Senator Hill is still sig
nifcant.
1T is plain that the Republicans must
make strong fight in the states of New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut
With those three states they may feel
secure. New Jersey is splendid fighting
ground this year. Outside Of the lower
tier Of counties it is an industrial state.
The Democratic record under Albeit has
been shameful one. With a strong Re-
publican nominee for governor the Re-
publicans will stand an excellent chance
of sweeping the state TITO the Harrison
column. 1t is Cleveand's native state.
but that fact does not enter largely into
the question. In Connecticut also much
will depend upon the state ticket, but
the chances are more than favorable to
the Republicans on the issue OF protection
and free trade.
There is Republican lukewarmness
and dissentionin New York, which must
be looked after before Mr.. Harrison can
reasonably claim the state. / have bee,
assured that all differences would be
promptly healed, but Mr.. Platt is still
waiting to be placated. What his terms
are | do not know, but Mr.. Harrison
does.
The fact that Harrity. the manager of
the democratic campaign, holds on to the
secretaryship Of Pennsylvania, while Car
ter, the chairman Of the Republican COM
mittee, has resigned good federal office,
Is point In favor Of the Republicans.
The labor troubles at Homestead are
rapidly settling themselves. 1t turns
out now that the fight there does not turn
so much upon the question OF wages as the
determination OF the big iron manufactur-
ers to be rid OF the Inference of the labor
organizations. 1t is the capitalists bat
tie against trades unionlsm. This elm
mates the protection issue very largely
and is a disappointment to the Demo-
Gratis.

Did the Penalty Fit the crimsg

Caste means something in India. A
young man of Fyzabod recently killed a
calf by accident and had to do penance

Brahmins told him that he could not

consideration that he was an uneducat-

with him. During the period of excom-

Politics of the Labor Unions.

What will organized labor, as repre-
sented by trades unions, do in the fall
political campaign? Practically moth.
ing, answers in The North American
Review Mr.. Samuel Gompers, president
OF the American Federation Of Labor.
Members of the trades unions will vote
individually according to their political
affiliations, Democratic or Republican
Some Of them will vote with the new
Peoples party, but even that does not
represent labor's ''views, because it is an
organization mostly of employers-agri.
cultural employers-not Of agricultural
lsborers. There is an increasing dispo-
sition among workingmen to abandon
the old parties and flock each his own
way.
The trades unions, il we understand
Mr.. Gompers Alright, are at present much
in the go-it-husband-go-it-bear attitude
as regards existing political parties.
Absolute economic Independence for the
laborers Of field, farm, workshop and
factory is the goal Mr.. Gompers sets for
himself and associates first of all. With
this complete economic independence
will come everything else that labor
calls for. Mr.. Gompers is happy to be
heve that he perceives among the mem.
bers of the labor organizations an in,
creasing tendency to rely ON themselves
and their own efforts and less on the aid
Of other people.
