ing the first Cleveland administration
the balance of trade was in favor of
the United States. Cleveland wrote
his free trade message of 1887, and
the last two years of his administra
ton the balance of trade was against
us. Confidence was restored by the
election of Harrison and during the
four years of his term the balance of
trade was again favorable each year.
But the election of Cleveland immedi-
ately turned the tide the other way,
and shipments of gold go in a coGtinu-
Gus stream to Europe to settle what
we cannot settle in traffic. Such are
the statistical facts Let each one
draw his own conclusions.

Those democrats who congratulate
themselves upon the fact tina their
party has not yet ruined the country
although it is four months since
Cleveland's Inauguration. should stop
to reflect more and talk less. Almost
any president will do we'll, if admin.
istering republican laws, and that is
what has thus far saved the country
and our fellow citizens of democratic
faith Mr.. Cleveland is reported to
have said that what this country needs
is lesson in hard times. The appre-
hension already apparent as to what
the democratic congress may do when
it convenes, points toward possibilities
that the Cleveland campaign of edu-
cation" is approaching.

few words, regretting the press of
work of a National worker, which kept
her from the greater pleasure of local
work.
Miss Ida Clothier, the National Y.
organizer, was then introduced. The
convention gave her the Chatauqua
salute. Miss Clothier responded
brightly, speaking of the great power

couraging the Unions to enlist them in
the work. Miss Clothier then led the

hour and a half. She spoke on the
purposes formed in early Ii fe by the

and legal side, and that the moral
side must first be agitated, then the
final settlement must come from the
legal side. She compared the temper
ance reform to the slavery question
and held that there will be readjust.
ment of political forces which will
end in "a change of constitution, and
the arms of the U. S. government will

IT IS NOT AN EPIDEMIC.
STORIES ABOUT SCARLET FEVER
GREATLY ExAGGERATED.

Only Eleven Gases Besides Those in
the Episcopal Orphans HOme-Only
q Few Physicians Save Cases in
Charge-Heslth Oh1cer Drummer Exs
poets the Disease to Be Stamped OCt
Soon - The Injected Houses Plsc-
srded.
Scarlet fever is not epidemic In Savan-
nab, despite the many wild rumors 70 that
effect, nor Is there any likelihood Of the
disease becoming epidemic. Health Officer
Drummer saws the best evidence Of this fact
is that within the last two days twelve of
the leading physicians Of the city have called
upon him to find out where the existing
cases are located, none having come under
their observations. Besides the few cases
in the Episcopal Orphans Homeland all
these are now convalescent-there are only
eleven other cases throughout the city.
DR.. BrunDer says he is satisfied on this
point, because as soon as scarlet fever is
discovered the law requires a report OF the
case TO be made to the health authorities, and
there is no reason to believe any Of Savan-
nah's doctors would hide one. DR.. Drummer
does not see any cause for alarm over the
matter, and expects the disease to be en-
tirely stamped out in a short while. There
has been considerably more cases Of scarlet
fever here In previous years, and nobody
thought Of getting frightened aboutthe mat
Ger. The present scare and talked-of epe~
denic no doubt originated with sensational
loving characters, who would rather be
predicting dire disaster all the time than
trying to help their city.
To fully protect people, however, DR..
Drummer yesterday had every house in
which scarlet fever prevails placarded in an
attractive manner TO indicate the existence
of contagious disease. He believes the
present scarlet fever was introduced here
from the north by tourists children. A
meeting Of the sanitary board will be held
to-day at 1890 o'clock to take whatever
steps looking 60 the qusrantining Of the in
fected houses as may be necessary.
The health committee OF the Citizens
Sanitary Association was called together
yesterday afternoon for the purpose of
ascertaining the number Of cases Of scarlet
fever and OF diphtheria In the city. DR..
LeHardy was instructed 20 send the follow
ing questions for immediate answer to
every practitioner In the city:
How many cases Of scarlet fever have
you under treatment9
How many cases Of scarlet fever now
convalescing9
How many cases of diphtheriA?
Give location of each and every case?
Do you request parents to keep children
at home until all danger OF contagion
ceasesl

THE BOARD OF TRADE DINNER.
Arrangements Completed for the
Great Event.

Arrangements Completed for the
Great Event
The programme for the Savannah Board
of Trade dinner at the De Soto Feb. is
about completed and will be announced In
a few days. The programme is an excel
lent one, but all that can be announced at
present is that speeches will be made by
some Of the most prominent men OF the
country.
The menu will be very elaborate, as are
all the preparations for the banquet
Capt. ID. &. Purse received yesterday
letter from Hon. Daniel Needham of Bos-
ton, Mass, one of the most prominent men
OF New England, regretting his inability to
be present at the dinner. His letter is one
that should be read with pride by every
Savannahian.
1t is published in full as follows:
Boston, Jan. 80, 1898,
TO the Hon. D. @. Purse, PTeHdent of the Sa-
hannah Board of Trade. and Others of the
Committee:
GENTLKMEN-Your kind Invitation for Feb 9
came duly to hand l have delayed replying,
hoping that the delay might enable me TO ar
range for an acceptance; but, to my great dis
appointment, find it impracticable.
Personally, TO me, 1t is almost grief. Two
consecutive Noyembers, at the national farm
ers' congress in Missouri and Nebraska, have
enjoyed the acquaintance OF your distinguished
PRESIDENT have seen him inspire the great ma
tional gatherings with his individuality, and
most earnestly desire TO see his parliamentary
power and electric touch manifested on his
native soil. It is six years since
last visited your beautiful city,
80 happily located within fifteen miles OF the
great Atlantic and supplied with harbor which
could give safe anchorage TO the largest feet of
ocean steamships.
recall with the vividness OF yesterday the
high, bold bluff upon which your city Is built its
beautiful parks which charm and fascinRte the
visitor; its grand fountain which so strongly
calls to mind that world renowned model in the
Place de la Concorde; ; its obelsk to the memory
of Greene and Pulaski, the cornerstone of which
was laid by Lafayette and its noble statue of
Liberty.
But my own New England society, which has
Its annual meeting Feb z, and it's annual din
ner on the evening of the same day, which has
membership Of 1900 substantial. practical
men, who, to the extent OF several hundred
from all parts of the New England states
gather In the city OF Boston on that occasion,
demand my presence and my speech.
Unjust, therefore, delay my visit until the
gathering Of the national congress in 1898, when
shall hope to renew my acquaintance with
your president and view with a fresh interest
the natural and artistic beauties of your lovely
city. With great respect, your obedient serv-
ant, DANIEL NEEDHAM.
