AN IMPORTANT DUTY.

There is at present only a remote pos
sibility that the cholera will break
through the barrier of watchful health
officers and secure a foothold in this
countr y, but it is not from the Asiatic
plague alone that danger is to be
feared. There are many other diseases
as destructive of life that must be
guarded against during the heated
term, and the torrid wave which came
so Unexpectedly this week gives warn
ing that strict attention must be paid
sanitary conditions If freedom from
epidemies Is to be secured.
Providence as compared with other
cities is clean, but it is still far from
being in condition to insure even rea-
sonable freedom from the many men,
ances to public health incident to sum-
mer weather. In several instances prop
erty owners have failed to comply with
the sanitary regulations of the city and
are thus not only endangering the lives
of their tenants but also of those resid-
ing in the neighborhood.
1t is the duty Of the health depart
ment to deal vigorously and promptly
with these persons. The health of
whole community should not be Jeop-
ardized because property owners are too
penurious to connect their premises
with sewer, but insist on retaining
foul smelling and disease breeding
vaults. The prompt prosecution of a
few such persons would have salutary
effect ON others who are disposed to be
equally Indifferent to the demand for
cleanliness and good health.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1893-06-08
DEMOCRATIC LAwLessNess.

AS an earnest Of the genuineness OF
their desire for revised constitution
it might be we'll for the Democrats to
manifest some respect for the constitu-
tion now in force.
Their attitude on the revision ques-
tion is such as to logically compel them
to ignore the plain provisions Of the
constitutions and be a law unto them
selves, whenever such course seems to
be more advantageous to their plans.
This is what has happened at New
port. While the proceedings there
were generally in contempt Of law and
co institution, the act of swearing in the
man the Democrats had selected to fill
the seat out Of which the legally elected
representative fr IN Jamestown was
kicked, was more open and excusable
than much Of the other alleged busi-
ness.
There seems no way to escape the con.
clusion that the swearing in of Samuel
Smith was In direct violation of the
plainest provision Of the constitution,
and that it was well known to be in
violation of the constitution by the
Democrats when they did it.
1t seems to be wholly useless to ex-
pect that the laws of the state, statu-
tory or constitutional, will be re-
spected by the Democrats. 1t is to be
hoped that the people Of the state are
observing the course of the Democrats,
and will draw from the spectacle its
proper lesson.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

THE EPIDEMrC OF MURDERS that Is upon
Massachusetts, at this time suggest basis
for the theory that crime comes to us in
waves. Certain it Is that the history Of
the past gives some ground for the belief,
although there is nothing TO explain why
II should be SO.
The REPORT OF OUR CoNsULs abroad
often contain valuable hints on matters
not directly related to statecraft. The ad-
vice given by Consul Pepper at Milan,
Italy, to American girls to study music at
home, for the reason that the instruction
In Italy Is unsatisfactory and pupils are
deceived as TO their merits or otherwise
through mercinary considerations-not
more than 4 per cent of Italian-trained
American musicians succeeding on the
stage-is sensible and sound. Certain 1t is
that good sound elementary instruction
can be obtained here in this cou ntry, and
this training will demonstrate the fitness
for more extensiue education.
LORD DUNRAvEN's VALKYRIE has
shown In the last couple of races on the
days she has proved that the Prince of
Wales Britannia had only raised false
hopes by her first performance, while the
Scotch syndicate's Calluna, about which
her owners were so sanguine, finds herself,
like Mr.. Clark's Satanita and Mr.. Jane
sons Iverna, Of but little account in q
race. 1t appears evident that the Valky-
fie is the boat the Americans have got to
sail away from, and that she will be a
worthy competitor for the Americas cup.
THE REPORT that Justice Field Of the
supreme court of the United States Is con
templating retirement after having
rounded out so years of service on the
bench. recalls the fact that only six other
supreme court justices have served as long
terms as Justice Field, or longer. They
are Bushrod Washington, nephew of the
first president, who died in 1922, after 81
years on the bench; John Marshal--the
greatest Of all the 30 justices, living or
dead-who served "a years and died in 1895;
William johnson, 30 years. died In 1884;
Joseph Story, "a years, died in lS45; John
Mclean, 80 years, died in 1851 and James
M. Wayne, 32 years, died in 1867, Justice
Field is n years Of age and one of the
great quartet of brothers whose fame 10 q

NO CHOICE YET.

For the seventh time the voters of the
Second ward in Pawtucket tried yester-
day to elect members of the city coun-
Gil and failed. There was very little
variation in the vote from that given in
al the preceding trials except in the
case Of warden, in which the Demo-
cratic candidate, Mr.. Hayes, secured
majority of tep.
No election in the history of Rhode
Island has continued lenger or been
more stubbornly contested than this.
1t is practically q fight between two
Democratic 'factions-the ono represent
ing the Carroll machine and the other
the conservative element in the party.
While the Republicans have no chance of
electing their candidates they have
steadily supported them and thus rem
dered valuable service, because by so
doing they prevented the Carroll ma
chine from seating its nominees. Nor
is there any danger that in future trials,
should they be ordered by the board of
aldermen, the Republicans will be less
active.
They know the sitting delegation is
composed of fair minded and honest
men, and are not likely by negligence
or lack Of interest To aid in replacing
them with partisan heelers.
