A LAND OF POLITICIANS.

A LAND OF POLITICIANS.
 Greece, once "the land of scholars and the nurse of arms," has, it appears, sadly degenerated in these modern days. She is now land of politicians. At every change in the cabinet two-thirds of the public ser wants are summarily dismissed, simply be- cause they do not belong to the party in power, and their places are taken by the politicians of the Opposition, who have been living from hand to mouth, awaiting anxiously the turn in the wheel of fortune which would provide them the means of gaining an honest livelihood. In such con- ditions 1t is impossible to create body of respectable, efficient officials. When in office, the officials naturally favor their po- itical friends, and apply the regulations with rigor to their political opponents. Even in the tribunals @ man has no securi- ty that he will receive impartial justice; for the judges are in great measure de- pendent on the politicians. Moreover, the politicians of both parties are always ready to combine for the defeat of any move ment in the interests of reform. Concerning the practicability of an appeal to the enlightened opinion of the country a correspondent declares that "there is nos enlightened opinion in the country outside of parties. In Greece every man is a poli- tician, and every politician belongs to a party. In most other countries the pro- fessional politicians are in some measure controlled by healthy, independent public opinion, and by a large body of electors who are interested in the welfare of the country quite independently of party con- alterations, whereas in Greece there is practically no public opinion outside of political circles, and no large body of electors who are neither political nor anna teur politicians"

TYPHOID FEVER,

DR.. F. o. Svenson. of Portland, recently
gave as the cause of particular death
'gastritis, following typhoid fever, which
was contracted at Portland, Or, by drink
ing city water" DR.. Svenson could attri-
butte no other cause of death, and he stated
the case frankly in his death certificate.
The time will come when a case Of
typhoid fever in an old and intelligent
community will tie very rare. Today
typhoid fever is everywhere more or less
of a scourge. 1t is more common and of a
more violent type in country towns than
in cities, because sanitary regulations are
seldom enforced, and old wells, a very
common cause of contamination, exist in
great numbers, many persons foolishly
clinging TO well water when a safer source
Of supply has been provided. Small
streams in the country in the region OF
schoolhouses frequently become contami-
mated, the children drink and die like
sheep. a sort of seli-murder runs riot in
the rural districts of America every season
in consequence of the public carelessness,
ignorance or indifference, which suffers
sanitary ABUSE. 10 dCCAulNl3lc Until some
fearful disease falls, like fog. upon the

\ proper health officer, clothed with

it impossible for typhoid fever TO multi
ply, and would extirpate or prevent the
hithy coalitions that are favorable to
the origin and increase of dipht, erla and
scarlet fsver. TIE difference between
intelligent and efficient sanitary measures
and Ignorance aud ineiHciency is seen
in the fact that while Montreal, with
but l4l,o09 people, in 1855 lost about s. 90

New England and New York, connected
With Montreal by rail. had very few

was not visited at all By the pest beyond
the few sporadic cases that are found every
year in every great seaport.
What science has done in the past is
ample encouragement for the future. To
illustrate how proper respect for sanitary
measures enables men to resist the march
of the most dreaded epidennics We have
only to read the history of the cholera and
yellow fever. The cholera, that once
scourged the whole world, has not seri-
ousIy touched the United States since
1S49. Yellow fever, since its last visit TO
Memphis, New Orleans and Meridian. has
not devastated the South, and has been
unknown as an epidemic at the North
South wherever the yellow fever has ap-
peared the local authorities have generally
succeeded in combining it to comparatively
narrow limits. Improved methods of SAN
itation and strict enforcement of
quarantine have excluded yellow
fever entirely from the North,
though it once ragged at Quebec,
Philadelphia, New York city and Nam
tucket island, and the highest medical au-
thorities agree that if the sanitary engin-
GERS at the South were endowed with the
proper authority, yellow fever would cease
1897 was confined to Florida, aud if the
authorities at Tampa had not concealed
its presence by an official denial of its ex-
istence, it would never have scourged
Jacksonville, for Jacksonville would have
been warned in time to have quarantined

If typhoid was as fatal as yellow fever
or as repulsive as smallpox, there would
be but very few cases. General Butler en-
ployed 100 men cleaning New Orleans of
all deleterious emanations of animal mat
ter. Then he kept the city clean by max
ing every householder clean his
premises daily and keep them clean
under pain of going to Jail;
he established quarantine station seventy
miles below the city with the result that
he had but one case of yellow fever in a
Butler cleaned Norfolk in the same way.
In the single month of August, 1853, New
Orleans had 5,512 deaths from yellow fever,
and Norfolk was frightfully scourged by it
in 1857. The deleterious emanations of
animal matter which Butler removed in
New Orleans are the cause of typhoid
fever. The lesson of Buffers success is
that he was his own board of health,
backed by despotic military authority. If
every town in the United States had a
sanitary engineer of courage and con-
science, clothed with peremptory power
to arrest every person who in the care of
their premises violated the laws of public
health, there would be very few cases of
typhoid fever. scarlatina or diphtheria.

A Born Leader of Men.

+. 5. Mussetter in Snohomish sun.
1t may be said without fear of contradiction,
that the death of no public man in this state
could SO shock the entire people as that of John
Charles Haines, whose death occurred on Sat
urday last, although Colonel Haines was q
public man in the strictest sense of the word.
Nor is il matter of wonderment that such
should be the case. Almost at the very outset
of his career in this commonwealth, the stamp
of the man furnished indisputable evidence
that he had been cast in no ordinary mould.
His physique was of the most magnificent char
acter and his mental equipment did bur supple
ment his grand physical qualities. To say that
he has LETT an ineradicable impress upon the af-
fairs of this state, is, therefore, to state an in
dltiable truth. In the very nature of things it
could not be otherwise.
Colonel Haines was born leader of men, His
commanding presence, his courtly manners, his
profound know ledge of human nature his I'M
equaled skill in dovetailing together repellent
forces, combined with the polish of Chester.
field, the magnetism OF a Mesmer, the vigor of a
Pitt the diplomacy of a Talleyrand and the ora
torical powers OF Webster, completed the
armor with which John Charles Haines did life's
battle.
But while the foregoing qualities made him
respected and admired by both friends and enc
mics alike, yet it was not any one or all OF these
things which SO endeared Colonel Haines to
those who knew him intimately. 1t was the
Astounding charity which flowed from his heart
like a perennial fountain, flooding all those
with whom he came in contact. 1t seemed as
If he had adopted for lifs's text the immortal
precept OF the msrtyred Lincoln: with malice
toward none and charity for ALL"
Ii would require a volume of no ordinary
size to set forth the triumphs-socially, politi-
cally or from legal standpoint of the dead
man. Suffice it to say that his life has aceen-
tuated the thought that force of character can
not be hid under bushel and that his friends
were az loyal to him as he was to them.

The new Duke of Devonshire, late Mar
quis of Harrington, visited the United
States during our civil war. He attended
party, given in his honor by New York
merchant conspicuous for his devotion to
the Union cause, wearing a Confeder-
ate badge in his buttonhole. There were
several Union officers present, and finally
one of them tore the badge from Hsrting-
toms lapel and put his foot upon it, rebuk-
ing Harrington at the same time by ask
ing him if he did not know that while a
war was raging, in which his host and
many of his guests had friends personally
engaged on the Northern side, that his act
was an insult. Harrington answered that
a lady had given it to him and asked him
to wear it, and he had kept his promise.

EDUCATED CRIMINALS.

Almy, the ruffian who murdered Christie
Warden at Hanover, n. H., because she
would not marry him, is man of consid-
cradle literary cultivation and student of
Tennyson; Sawtelle, who murdered his
brother in cold blood, was familiar with
Sponsors "Faerie Queen" These facts
will surprise nobody except those shallow
people who think mere knowledge has
power to make a bad man good. If
sincere love of knowledge and capacity
for profound philosophical thinking were
any assurance of virtue Lord Bacon
would not have taken brides, prosecuted
his benefactor Essex, and been the last
Englishman to use the rack as an instru-
ment of legal torture.
Great intellectual power and great
capacity for the acquisition of knowl-
edge, joined to no mean taste
for literature or art, has not
seldom been found joined TO great
moral heartlessness. Napoleon, Aaron
Burr, Edgar A. Poe, the great painter
Turner, the Medici, the Borgias, Frederick
the Great of Prussia, the Earl of Stair the
Duke of Alva, Lord Chesterfield. the Earl
of Rochester and the Earl of SALISBURY
were Of this type. To the same breed of
men Of high intellectual power, but lack
ing scholastic training. belonged Richard
the Third, the Duke of Marlborough and
Benedict Arnold. The bomb-thrower Nor
cross never drank, smoked or chewed;
and was as regular in his habits as Senator
David p. Hill. of New York, the darkest,
most INSCRIPTIONS, most dangerous po-
htical conspirator in the whole country.
The celebrated Roman tyrant, Sylla, was
man of exquisite literary taste, had
the finest library in Rome, and yet was as
heartlessly cruel as that MedIci who kept
q torture chamber in constant operation,
under his garden that was filled with the
finest statues of ancient and modern art.
Many men have love of literature and
taste for philosophy without any sense of
duty, feeling of moral responsibility or
conscience, and many men, as utterly I'M
lettered as the rude fishermen who fol-
lowed Christ and initiated Him, have a
high sense of duty, of moral responsibility,
coupled with a conscience of exquisite
tenderness.
