A Railroad Busting.

One of the most prominent railroad
men in Canada says that the railroad
that started for Hudson bay number
of years ago and got about 100 miles into
an unsettled wilderness will never be
built. The idea of running such road
in connection with line of steamers to
start from Fort York or thereabout, go
through Hudson strait to sea and thence
to Liverpool he declares to be chimer-
ical. The bay is open but few months
in a year; there are many shoals; there is
always drifting ice about the straits,
and the journey is roundabout; SO this
railroad to nowhere is rusting. New
York Sum-

nation or otherwise during the recess of
the legislature of any state, the executive
thereof may make temporary appoint
ments until the next meeting Of the leg
islature, which shall then fill such va
cancies."
Perkins term, of course, expires as
soon as the legislature chooses a success
sor to fill out Plumbs term. Plumb
would have served until March 8, 1895,
had he lived. When the Kansas legisla-
ture met recently, as all newspaper
readers know, there was dual organi-
cation of the house, the senate being I'M
disputed. Neither Populists nor Repub-
licans were able to get the necessary
quorum to vote for some time at the
Joint sessions of house and senate which
were held fer the purpose of electing a
United States senator. Finally the
Populists Endorsed the candidacy of the
Democratic nominee. Judge John Mar
tin of Topeka, and on the following day
he was declared elected by the Populist
lieutenant governor in his capacity as
presiding officer Of the joint session.
The Republicans dispute the legality
of the election mainly on the ground
that Judge Martin did not receive the
votes of majority of the members of
both houses The Populists and Demo-
Gratis take the position that this was not
necessary; that the votes which Judge
Martin got from members whose right
to sit was unquestioned, added to those
which were cast against him. constituted
a quorum Of the legislature, which made
it legal body. Judge Martin, having
received majority of this majority, has
been. they aver, elected according to
law. These are the contentious of the
two sides, and from whatever viewpoint
it is regarded it presents very interest
ing puzzle to the layman.
Judge John Martins parents were ma
tives of South Carolina who were living
in Wilson county, Tenn, when the en-
bryonic statesman first appeared on the
mundane scene, the exact date being
Nov. 10, 1888. Young Martin early
evinced liking for the law and as soon
as his education was completed COM
menced the study of the profession in
Lebanon, Tenn. When Rush Gilmore
as United States district judge went to
Kansas in 1866, Mr.. Martin accompanied
him and has resided there ever since.
Most of this time his home has been in
Topeka, where he still lives.
When the territorial legislature met in
Shawnee county in 1857, Mr.. Martin
was elected clerk. He became assistant
United States attorney the following
year and reporter of the supreme court
in 1850. In 1872 he was elected to the
legislature and in 1883 took his seat as
judge of the district court Of Shawnee
county.
Judge Martin has always been an
ardent Democrat and has been honored
by his party in various ways. He ran
for governor in 1876 and for congress in
1885 and 1888, but failed of election on
each occasion. Judge Martin is law
yer of acknowledged ability. His fam
lily consists of a wife and one daughter.

tines are empowered to act in ernergen-
cies as officers of the national quaran-
tine
In 1879 a national board of health was
created, but was allowed to expire soon
after by failure to make appropriations
for it. In 1888 eight federal quarantine
stations were established. These divide
between them the entire coast of the
United States and are under the control
of the national marine hospital service.
The nerve center, SO to speak, of all their
ramifcations is in the SO called Butler
building at Washington, a granite struc-
ture directly facing the Capitol on the
south.
In the entire service are over 500 per-
sons distributed among the quarantine
stations near the coast cities. At their
head, with almost absolute power, is DR..
Walter Wyman, and his assistants are
Surgeons H. W. Austin, F. W. Mead, J.
j. Kinyoun and e.. T. Vaughan. Be-
sides. there are sixteen other graduated
surgeons, twenty-five passed assistant
surgeons, eighteen assistant surgeons,
seventy-six acting assistant surgeons
and thirty hospital stewards. The re-
manning $50 persons are nurses, attend
ants, seamen and quarantine officers of
various grades.
The service employs six vessels. Four
are simply disinfecting steamers and
used only locally at the main stations;
but two, the Dagmar and the Charles
Foster, are fine seagoing steamers. By
| the last assignment the former is on duty
at the Delaware breakwater and the lat
ter at the Cape Charles quarantine. The
other six quarantine stations are located
on Sapelo island, Georgia, Key West and
the Dry Tortugas, on Chandaleur island,
off the Mississippi coast, at San Francisco
and San Diego, CAL, and at Port Town
send. Wash. OF all these that at. San
Francisco, with hospital on Angel
island, is confessedly the best and many
think the finest quarantine station in
the world
In all branches of the service there is
now unusual activity and vigilance, and
DR.. Wyman urges that inspection shall
begin in foreign ports at once by direct
| Instructions to American consuls; that
immigrant vessels from any port
not above suspicion be detained;
that if any contagious disease appears
after its sailing the vessel be required to
return; that most rigid national quaran-
| fine be established at once and every
city be put in the best possible con-
dition. In short, he means to keep the
cholera out. and may the Lord be good
| to him!

KEEPING OUT CHOLERA.
How the Federal Quarantine Service Il
HnndnCfaI

How the Federal Quarantine Service In
Conducted.
Surgeon General Walter Wyman has
suddenly and one might say painfully
become an exceedingly prominent mem
Der of the federal government, for he is
at the head of the marine hospital and
national quarantine establishment. AS
the law now stands he has the last word
on preventive measures, and the medical
authorities say cholera is certain to get
in unless extraordinary precautions are
taken to keep it out. The prospect is
anything but pleasant. Cholera is al
ready prevalent in some foreign ports.
Its entrance here at any time would be
an evil, but this year a calamity indeed,
for, in the expressive language of Witness
Wilkinson in the Beecher trial, it ''would
knock the Worlds fair higher than a
kite"
Congress has taken the matter up, and
so have all the medical associations in
the coast cities. Many others have added
their advice, and in the multitude of
counselors there is deal of confusion.
Shall there be national or local quaran-
tine or o com ination Of the two? Shall
immigration be suspended for one year
from March i, as Senator Chandler pro-
poses, or for few months only, as Others
propose, or rigid system of inspection
be relied on, as Congressman Rayner, Of
Maryland, and Brosius, of Pennsyl vania,
propose?
Surgeon General Wyman goes much
further. He would combine the several
stringent measures proposed and have
not only national quarantine and very
rigid inspection Of all cabin passengers,
but total Suspension of immigration by
steerage to begin at once. He wanted it
on the list of January and thinks that
valuable time has already been lost. And
it is fact worth noting that the leading
physicians in the Atlantic coast cities
agree with him. Meanwhile it is a salts
faction to know that the national quar-
antine service is already well organized
and has often proved it's efficiency.
1t was founded by law in 1889 and
has since been much improved and ex-
tended. In 1871 it was reorganized and
made bureau of the treasury depart
ment. The statute of 1899 provided for
the observance of state health regula-
tons by federal officers and gave the
president power to purchase or erect
quarantine warehouses and to remove
certain branches Of the government to
places of safety during epidemics Of con-
tagious diseases. BY the law of 1878
vessels arriving from infected ports are
to be kept out, United States consuls are
required to report the state Of health at
such ports and to notify the marine hos
