The school Law and It's Friends.


The politicians ard machine oilers of
the republican party have agreed that the
attitude of the party in its rigid defense
of the compulsory education law was a
glariDg mistake. That original position,
however, was previously dictated by the
voters, the rank and file of the party who
have not yet experienced a change of
heart and who are now silent simply be-
cause they have had no organization
upon that issue and no chance to be
heard. 1t will be found during the pres
emit campaign that some republican speak
ers who have inherent sntipsthy to the
psrochisl school will not swallow the gag
the leaders have prepared for them and
with their voices will sustain the present
unjust compulsory law. Their utter
ances will be spplsuded by their re-
publican hearers, too. That speaker to
q republican audience who makes the
most radical reference to the two-faced
and time-serving policy as laid down by
his party leaders will receive the loudest
cheering. If q vste were taken today
among republicans exclusively the pres
emit compulsory education law would be
sustained by an overwhelming majority
1t was the vote Of Liet. Gov Rsy-a can ..
didate for reelection, that prevented its
repeal by the last Legislature. Small
wonder then that the German Lutherans
OF the state put no faith in the lvote-
catching promises of the republican plat,
form, and will place their &c. 600 votes
almost solidly with the dem ocracy and
its established and known attitude upon
the propositions that the parent is the ma.
tural guardian Of the child, and that the
state is not the sole interpreter of what
constitutes school.

forget the dignity of the great office to

him as to countensnce a spiteful
abuse and attempt to smut other republic

mentary on American politics and meth

" Senator Sherman Renews His Attack"
Senator Sherman renewed his attack
and refused to be convinced even by the
oratory Of the Iowa Senator. He want
ed the Senate to do the straightforward
thing and not tizzle about it. Give the

for it, as the Senator has said they did,
"Why not give them Castoria?" He
knew that it was a popular thing with
the little ones, more popular he thought
than even the souvenir half-dollars would
be, The galleries looked down in sur

them, dropped into the vacant chairs

FACTS ABOUT THE CHOLERA.
AND HOW TO PREVENT ITS SPREAD.
Circular Issued by the State Board of
Health of Tennessee.

Health may issue circulars, and the
local authorities may vigorously en-
force regulations, but if each house
holder will not heartily cooperate
in removing the causes which breed
cholera and similar diseases, the
pestilence, should it come, will be
rendered many fold more disastrous
than if otherwise. The following
instructions have been drawn up
with care, and explain what ought
to de done:
~ Toprevent cholera, it is nee
essary to remove the unsanitary
conditions which give fatal activity
to the cholera poison.
~ To keep a good heart and a
cool head, and observe strictly the
laws of health.
"a Dervish, travelling over the
desert, met the Cholera, to whom
he said, where are you going?'
The Cholera replied, I'm going to
Bagdad, to kill 10000 Some time
afterward the same Dervish met
the Cholera returning, and said,
you vagabond, you killed 100000
No, no. said the Cholera, Il kill
ed 100000; fear killed the rest. %
Oriental Legend.
(3) Promptattention to all loose
ness of the bowels will generally
prevent an attack of the cholera.
"To arrest diarrhma is to prevent
cholera" When cholera is about,
the slightest diarrh@a should be in
stantly checked. A good diarrh@a
mixture, which every one should
keep in the house, should be taken
at once, a doctor should be sent for
Immediately, and all excavations
should be disinfected as if the case
were one Of cholera.
(4) The unsanitary conditions
which enable the cholera germ to
become actively fatal are:
(a) A tainted water supply.
(b) Foul privies OF cesspools.
(c) Foul ash heaps.
(d) Damp, ill-ventilated houses
(e) Defective drainage, ill-trap-
ped sinks, and imperfect sanitary
appliances.
(f) Filth in any form.
(5) All springs and wells should
be inspected, even if their water is
bright and sparkling, for then il
may often be most dangerous. Al
suspected should be filtered anC
boiled. All tainted springs anC
wells should be closed, and when
ever a cholera case is reported al
drinking water drawn from rivers
springs, and wells should be boileC
for haitian hour. Filtrationis good
but It's best to boil afterward. Al
cisterns should be cleaned out a
short intervals, and so situated a

drains, privies, or cesspools, partic
ularly so if built under ground.
co. Cesspools, or foul privies
are nests for breeding pestilence
and centers for poisoning the all
earth, and water. 1t is chiefly b.
their leakage into wells and under
ground clsterns, and their oVerhoN
into springs, branches, and rivers
that they contribute to the propo
CATION of cholera.
(7) Damp, dirty, over-crowde
houses predisposes their inmates
attack. All low-class tenemen
property, outhouses, cellars, etc
should be thoroughly lime-washec
back yards should be frequent
cleansed and disinfected; fresh al
and sunshine, if possible, should b
let into every room daily. Wher
there is smell in any room whic
can not be removed by opening tn
window, something is wrong, whic
ought at once to be put right, {
mischief may follow.

THE OCTOPUS IN HAWAII.
Agents of the Louisiana Lottery Offer Liberal
Inducements for Charter

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. A.-A passenger on
the steamer Australia, which arrived from
Honolulu to-day. says that for some time
the Louisiana lottery has had agents In
Honolulu, their object being to obtain q
charter from the Hawaiian Legislature.
Their operations have been conducted with
the utmost secrecy, and few people outside
of those interested know anything about
the matter. In return for the charter tho
company will agree to pay 81 .000. 900 toward
q cable; to run weekly line of steamers TO
San Francisco; to pay one-half of the ex-
penses of the government. to pay 800. 900
per year to different local enterprises and
to erect buildings for offices, directors. in
spectors, etc. The money for preliminary
payments is already IN Honolulu, ana il
the Legislature accepts the proposition of
tho company 100000 will be afloat in Hon.
olulu in thirty days. Owing to the present
depressed state of finances of the islands
this would prove q veritable bonanza, and
IL is quite probable that the company will
receive q charter Still there is a strong
missionary spirit in Hawaii and fierce as
sault will be made on the bill when 1t is
brought before the Legislature.

Brazil, Ind. Aug. 2.-Considerable ex-

Of q contradictory cave, on George Nc

Kinley accidentally wandered in the cave
and discovered . complete outfit of coun-
terfeiter's tools and q goodly amount of
metal for the manufacture of bogus coins.
Officers v ere soon notified of the discovery,
and arrangements are now being made to
search the cave thoroughly, with the hope
of unearthing some important evidence
which may lead to the capture of the gang.
The cave 10 situated in an obscure spot,
thickly surrounded by small brush. and
doubtless proved capital rendezvous for
the makers of the spurious money. just
how long this gang has held forth here it is
difficult matter TO conjecture, as every.
thing signifies that the cave has been in
habited for some time.
