No Cholera in Dry Rags,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 14.-Secre,
tary Foster, Assistant Secretary Spauld-
ing and Surgeon General Wyman of the
marine hospital service gave hearing at
the treasury department day to a
committee representing merchants in
New York, Philadelphia and Boston in
terested i1 The importation of rags.
They asserted that the danger of infec
ton from the importation of rags i:
greatly exaggerated and that choiera
bacili could not possibly exist in rags in
the dry condition in which they are i'm
ported. Secretary Foster promised te

Cholera VIII be Here.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Some time
ago the senate committee on immigra-
ton addressed q series of questions to q
number of prominent physicians in New
York city, asking their opinion as to the
probable appearance of cholera in this
country next year; the character and ex-
tent of the danger, according to their
views, and the relation Of immigration
to this question and what effect the sus-
pension of immigration for one year
would have upon the danger.
Replies have been received from Dr..
Chas. G. Wilson, president of the city
board of health, aud number of other
prominent physicians who express a
general unanimity of opinion that there
is great apprehension that cholera will
become an epidemic during the spring
and summer of 1898. They believe that
rigid quarantine should be adopted and
constantly maintained in this country
and that all passengers arriving or
steamships should be subjected to close
medical examination. II this inspection
and quarantine cannot be safely con
duct by United State officers, the physi
clans believe that immigration should b.
entirely uspended

1t is the South, West and Northwest
Against the Plutocratlc East.
A careful analysis of the vote npo,,
the silver bill, and of the absent nem-
berS, shows some very interesting fg-
ures. The full number of the house is
8S2. Mr.. Kendall, of Kentucky, having
died leaves SS1. OF these, five of the
absentees-Campbell On. ", Cheatham
IN. g., Compton (Md.), Donivan (O)
and Springer (Ill.)-have not fixed their
position. This leaves S26 members who
now stand as below, and absentees ac-
counted for:
For the bill-Democrats, 145: repub-
heans, II; peoples party, 9; total. 165.
Against the bill-Democrats, 81: re-
publicans, Il; total, 16l.
1t would be a striking coincidence if
Mr.. Springer's vote should be the one
to decide the issue as it was in the
choice of speaker.
The vote in the house is cast indiyid-
ually, and as already said was tie. If
each state should be governed by ma
jority OF the votes of its members. and
this taken as indicating the choice of
the electoral college, it would show
vote of 22S in favor of free coinage to
ZIG against it. Afterpairs and absentees
are accounted for fair analysis of the
vote by states and parties, to table the
silver bill. is given below:

The North Dakota Independent pub

A careful study of these figures will
give remarkable clear indication of
the location and strength of the reform
sentiment of the country. If the pluto
Gratis in a straight campaign should adj
vocate protection and the single gold
standard they would probably carry
California, Connecticut, Delaware.
Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts. New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,

and Wisconsin-149 votes. The oppo-
sition would have a majority in Ala

The domination of the money power
is coming to a crisis. Between plu-
tocracy and the people the strain upon
the old parties is terrific. They are
losing all former elements of cohesion.
This contesto on free silver has torn holes
through their old hulks that cannot be
patched or mended. The democratic
party, as was eaky to forecast, is wholly
unequal to the stress of the weather.
but the people whoas an expedient sent
to congress this overwhelming majority
are still on hand. They are casting
aside all prejudices. They know what
they want, and they will have it. When
plutocracy can be sectionalized in the
east, it must perish, Lay on now. De-
feat the will of the people and take

The Silver Bill.

BANDS silver bill was discussed and
voted on in the house of representatives
last week. Wall street developed a
strength that greatly surprised the
friends of free silver. On several test
votes it was tie, and finally the bill
was placed on the calendar. The scenes
of turbulence and of bad temper and of
ugly behavior showed tina Wall street is
determined to bulldoze the whole coun-
try and keep its iron clutch on the in
dustries of the nation. Again we
ask how long will the people of
the great agricultural states con-
tune to cling to the coat tail of Wall
street? How long will southern and
western democrats and republicans sub
NIT to the arrogant domination of the
money power of the New England
states? The democratic party in its
national platforms, in its speeches, in its
organs, for years has boldly advocated
this old Jeffersonian doctrine. If that
party has any manhood, and virtue and
honor left, it will not longer submit to
this dictation. Nothing can be hoped
for from the republican party, since it
has been the open friend of plutocracy
for a quarter of century. There is but
one thing for the people of the west,
the south and the northwest to do, and
that is to join together and restore this
government to the principles on which
it was founded. viii they do it, or will
they still consent to lick the hand that
smites them?-Raleigh q. c. Progress
