1t is easy to believe, as the reports
say that there is confusion in French
political circles over the Panama canal
exposure and investigation. Enough
of the constituent elements Of those
circles are involved to make a terrible
hole in French public life if all the
accused were to be sent to prison.
Thus far n hundred deputies are I'M
der the harrow, but the investigation
has only fairly begun. The charitable
view is that the promoters, being de-
sirous of floating their scheme, bought
up everybody in sight who had any in
fluence. This was all we'll enough
while the buying and selling could be
kept quiet. 1t is all very different now
that the cat is out OF the bag.
1t is doubtless true that somebody is
using the affair to even up with some
body else. It may even be that NJ.
Constans hopes to walk into the presi-
dency over the statesmen to be wrecked,
but the motive for the exposure does
not touch the root of the matter.

From The Daily Revcize, RhGteom, Wash
"T. G. Burnett, the Democratic can
didate for sheriff, was taken violently
ill at Cloarbrook. He had all tho
symptoms of Aslatic cholera, and for
an hour or two it was feared he would
die. They finally gave him a dose Of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
DiarrhGa Remedy, which revived him
until a. physician arrived" This is
precisely what the manufacturers Of
that medicine recommend for cholera.
Send for a physician, but give their
medicine until the physician arrives.
Ii cholera becomes prevalent in this
country next summer this preparation
will be in great demand because it can
always be depended upon.

For Mayor Once More.

AoA w.
Two years ago Mr.. seabright ex-
planned that he wanted the Democratic
nomination for mayor because he had
been attacked" In the specifications
it was set forth that a preacher had at
tackled the mayors administration,
hurting his thunderbolts from the pull
pit.
Mr.. seabright wanted "vindication"
and got the nomination. Many Demo-
Gratis who had declared that they would
not support him for another term did
vote Tor him because, as they said. he
had been attacked. And Mr.. Seabright
was elected.
So it comes to this, that to criticise
an unsatisfactory administration OF a
public office is to take the shortest cut
to make sure Of getting some more OF
the same kind. Somebody must have
been attacking the mayor recently, for
his movements show all the earmarks
Of active candidacy.
The I~NTELLIeENcER desires to enter,
ann to enter promptly, a plea of not
guilty. We have been trying to say all
the good that could be said of the may
or's administration and have not found
room for many or much of its other
features.
All this, it seems, is togo for naught.
Somebody else has been doing theattack-
ing, and now the mayor is going to at
tack the Democratic primaries. We
shall see what we shalls see.

the senate committee investigating the

from North and South America.

ground of protecting thocountry against

to keep the dread disease out of the

pose of relieving this country OF the

The soclnI EvII In Plttsburrh,


The mayor OF Pittsburgh instructed
the police to notify the jewellers in dis
orderly houses that the law against
their ofFense would be enforced. The
police department notified the women
that they must be out Of the houses
within forty.eight hours.
Some of them got out Immediately.
Some wero turned out at once by the
persons conducting the houses. Some
OF them struck u bee.line for Wheeling.
which has already served as an asylum
for persons whom the law has driven
out of Pittsburgh. OF those who re-
main in Pittsburgh some have applied
for shelter, others have found that for
themselves, some are on the streets.
In Pittsburgh the action Of the mayor
is received with almost every possible
shade of approval and disapproval. The
mayor explains that he was moved to
action by preachers, business men,
fathers and mothers. He expected the
police to allow more time, but if the ac-
ton be thought harsh, the public is to
remember hat the law is against the
disorderly houses and those who dwell
in them, and it was not necessary to al
low any grace.
The preachers and their congrega-
tons were not prepared for this move
and they made no provision to come to
the rescue Of the homeless fallen. Some
OF them say they will do what they can
for the truly penitent; for the rest, they
are criminals and the law provides
places for them. These are true words,
but they have a harsh sound.
The Law has allowed the social evil to
take deep root in Pittsburgh as else
where. By special efforts to contine the
evil to one locality the officers of the
law have encouraged the belief that
those who did not go beyond tho pre-
scribed limits would be permitted to
ply their trade. This was not a license,
but it was a practical indulgence which
might fairly have been taken into ac-
count when the time came to strike.
The mayor OF Pittsburgh has little
hope of good results from this move.
He and others do not expect to extir-
pate the evil and fear that scattered ali
over the city, it will be moro difficult
than ever to deal with. But there is
the law and he ordered it to be exc
cuted.
The religious people OF tho city are
going to see what they can do to shelter
and rescue the fifteen hundred who
must find other shelter after this after.
noon. So the old problem confronts
Pittsburgh in a new form. 1t is an
ancient question and 5seemiagly no
nearer q solution than in the ages gone
by.
Men help to make the problem, but
when it is taken up for solution they
have disappeared. The parties of the
other part cannot vanish go easily. The
brand of the scarlet letter is on them
and they are hunted where they CO.
When, if ever, this problem shall be
solved it will be only by a very broad
philanthropy with a great big heart in
it and ample means at the back OF it.
