ADvICEs from Egypt state that the
cholera is much worse at Mecca; that
the number of deaths are about
double those reported, it being impos-
sible to bury all the dead and that
the roads are strewn with corpses.
Miss Amnesty Kenealy, who has been
appointed Judge of the hygienic Sec
tion of the worlds fair by the ladies'
committee of the royal commissioners,
has just arrived in New York from
Southampton, says that she does not
see how the United States can escape
visit from the disease this fall. She
says that it is getting big foothold
in France. She does not think there
is any use of being needlessly alarmed
but is Of the opinion that ample warn
ing should be given that the people
may exercise due precautlon. Other
authorities are of the opinion that
the danger o. spread of the disease
here this year is not great, and that
the hold which it has upon Europe is
comparatively insignificant. On the
whole however, it is best to use all
proper precautions and keep cool. II
America does escape visit from the
disease this year it will mark great
victory for science.

Saturday evening July Is, is the
time for the annual school meeting.
The matter of school books should in
terest every school board in the
county, and change made in confor-
nifty with the new text book law,

ireson a member Of the committee
canvassing the county in the intrest
of the books, which were recommend
ed, by the committee, appointed for
the purpose of making selection for
the different districts of the county.
No district can do any better than to
adopt the books recommended by
this committee.
-Supt Kenaston has filed his annu-
al report with the county supeIinten-
dent. 1t shows a total enrolment in
the public schools during the past
year of 1855, and 1921 upon which to
base the next annual apportionment.
This is over hundred more than last
year and means an increase of over
400 to the city. The next apportion-
ment of school funds will give the city
about 5000.
We are sorry to announce that Mr..
and Mrs. Benedict have lost one OF
their twin boys. The remains were

A UNIFORM CURRENCY.

Discussing the currency question
and the possibility of the issue OF
state bank notes, the current Recaeao
of Repieus has the following regarding
our financial system: "For thirty
years we have enjoyed the blessings
of a uniform national currency, We
have not been compelled to pay any
attention to the name of the local
national bank inscribed on the notes
passing through our hands, for all are
equally sound through the govern
ment's guarantee. To repeal the ten
Der cent tax would mean that Maine,
Kansas, California, North Dakota,
Ohio, and all the other states would
be in position to authorize local bank
ing institutions to flood the country
with paper money which could have
no certainty of uniform safety and
value. A Zimri Dwiggins might es'
tablish a chain of local banks on I'M
sound principles and issue paper
money which, mingled with the gen.
eral volume.of the country's currency
would be worthless in the hands OF
the last holders on the failure OF the
banks. 1t is now asserted in some
quarters that congress will refuse to
repeal the harmful silver purchase
act unless that repeal be accc mpanled
by the resurrection of the still more
pernicious system of wildcat" paper
money that was buried thirty years
ago. Whatever may or may not be
done with our currency laws, every
business man, every farmer, every pro-
fessional man who receives salary,
and every man or woman who earns
wages or has fixed money income,
should insist absolutely upon a nation
al, uniform currency, with the United
states government at the back of
every dollar in circulation"

"A leak in an unfinished water
connection in front of Mrs. Rogers
millinery establishment at about nine
O'Clock last night came neal flooding
the basement of Rosenberger & Mobiles
candy factory. A drain in the cellar
was the only thing that prevented the
flooding, as by the time that Off1cer
Daniels had found the proprletors a
large stream of water was running in.
Inspector Halstead was called as
soon as possible, but the water could
not be shut off beforeC. H Austin, Son
& Co.'S basement was flooded. No dam
age to speak of was done in either
basement.

IT is said that the weather bureau
notified the people Of the section OF
Iowa visited by the fearful cyclone
last week to look out for it on that
day, 'as a severe storm would ensue.
The warning was claimed to have
been ample, but was needed by only
few. 1t is also claimed by the bureau
officials that all the cyclonic storms
this year have been predicted, and
the people of the sections where they
took place duly notified. 1t is not
claimed that this is anything out of
the ordinary, or that they could tell
that cyclone was coming. The in
dications were that severe storm
would visit that locality, and the
people were duly notified of the fact
and advised to use due caution. In
the light of this it would seem that it
might be good thing for people to
take heed of the storm warnings sent
out, and prepare for them accordingly.
Better that trouble be taken to shield
one from the wrath of the storm
where the danger does not finally
come, than that all he unprepared
and the terrible scenes of the Iowa
cyclone be enacted. If these cyclones
can be predicted by the weather bu-
reau, insomuch as the indications are
that severe storm will visit a GER
tain locality, steps ought to be taken
by the federal and local authorities to
give these reports the widest public
ity possible, so that proper precau-
tions may be taken by the people. 1t
would not prevent, of course, the loss
of property which is always attendant
on such occasions, but it would pre-
vent that terrible loss OF life and the
manning of humanity, that is always
connected Herewith, and is of far
greater consequence. If the weather
bureau can be useful in this line, its
Importance to the public will be
greatly enhanced.

The free silverites are trying to
break the force of Secretary Carlisle's
statement that during the period OF
free coinage from the foundation of
the government to 1878 there were
only S,O45, S3S silver dollars coined
against somewhere in the neighbor-
hood of 400, 100000 in the 16 or 20 years
following, by stating that over $685.
900. 1000 of fractional coins which were
full legal tender were coin
ed. We do not see where
this cuts any great figure in the
case. The question under discussion
regards silver dollars. In this regard
the free silver men canuot justly say
that the white metal has been des-
eliminated against. There is large
amount of fractional coin now in eX-
istence besides the silver dollars.

THE ATTENDANCE at the World'sFa

THE attendance at the Worlds Fair
Sunday was the smallest yet recorded
and has had a discouraging effect up
on the managers. No doubt the
trouble attendant upon it's opening
has had something to do with it, but
undoubtedly the principle cause is the
fact that about one-half the exhibits
are covered up and cannot be seen on
that day. Unless this defect can be
remedied, the Sunday fair will be a
failure, and we doubt very much
whether a 25 cent admission would
materially help the matter. The peo-
pie feel that they are being cheated
out of their moneys worth if they go
there and find many of the exhibits
covered up, and this same feeling
would soon be apparent should
the admission be reduced. The ex-
hibitors went into the matter with
the understanding that the fair was
to be closed Sunday, so made arrange
ments for taking care of their exhibits
accordingly and do not seem disposed
to make a change. The matter will
come up before the Worlds Fair au-
thorities for settlement this week,
and it is to be hoped it will be
permanently settled. The Inter Ocean,
which was one of the earnest advo-
Gates of Sunday opening, has comeout
with strong editorial declaring that
a mistake has been made, and thinks
that the gates should be closed again
on that day. 1t thinks the public
will not discredit the action of the
directors if they change their position
regarding the question. lit is evil
dence of wisdom and strength of
character, 'it says, ''when a man finds
himself mistaken to change his
course. To proceed right along in
mistaken course, without regard to
results, is an evidence of weakness"
The latest reports from Chicago in
dictate favorable feeling toward clos
ing the gates of the fair proper, and
keeping only Midway Plaisance open,
this being the favorite resort on Sun
day whit hose who attend the fair.

THE Western Passenger Traffic As
ISOLATION has decided upon a scheme
of excursions to the worlds fair, at
one fare for the round trip, good for
seven or eleven days from date of sale
of tickets. These tickets are to be
good for continuous passage in coaches
only-no sleeping or chair cars to be
used This will he an. advantage
over the present rates, but why not
make it one fare for the round trip
for the remainder of the fair. The
roads would be the gamers in the pop
ular estimation as well as in future
business, by such move.

The chief of one Of the pension divis-

board of revision completed it's work
he expected to see the names of the

reduce the total amount paid in pen
sions accordingly. Those who voted
for a change, are getting it in more
ways than one.

AS A general thing the first reports
of a cyclone are considerably eXag-
gerated but the later reports from the
Iowa cyclone of Thursday evening
fully sustain the first reports, or
make them worse. The loss of life
has been frightful, and among the in
jured are many who will die. 1t is
one of the worst cyclones that has
happened this year.
