TIE HAYOR.S MESSAGE.

Mayor Neill's message to the council
ia a document OF considerable force, and
outlines policy which, il carried out,
means much for prosperous future for
Pullman. And Neill is not the man to
Law down line which he will not make
every attempt toward following mp, and
his best efforts will go toward the reali-
cation of his hopes and plans, as depicted
in his message, during his term of office,
He is a man OF broad and liberal views,
and his recommendations to the council
are all with thought to the city's best
interest.
The message gives particular import
snce to the building of sewerage sys
tenn, and this we hope will be one OF the
first things which the incoming council
will attend to- The health of the city
demands the system, and it should be
laid out on a plan that will not need a
complete change whenever another hun
bred people are added to the city's pop
ulation. 1t is mistaken idea OF econ
omy TO build institutions for the present
city only, but they should be planned
on foundation generous enough to
meet the needs Of the city in years to
come This, in the end, is cheaper than
to build this year for the needs of the
present year only, and to tear down and
rebuild for the city OF next year, Bet
ter build now so that next season we can
add to the original plant. This is Neilfs
policy, and the past history Of Pullman
will show the wisdom of it.
Another good idea advanced by the
message is that of building a brick en-
glne house and city hall. The fret cost
of such building would be saved in a
very short time from the lower rate of
fire insurance. With the present engine
house the magnificent water system has
no effect on reducing the rate, but with
a brick house the rate on every building
in the city would be reduced 10 per cent,
which means an enormous saving each

The New Era In Kansas.

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 9.--The triumph
OF the Populists of Kansas made possible
at the polls in November was fulfilled
today. The ceremony took place in the
hall of the house of representatives, and
was witnessed Coy the greatest crowd
ever assembled in Kansas on a similar
occasion. Precisely at noon the old and
new offices appeared and took seats at
the right of the stand. At 1910 John
w. Breidenthal, chairman of the Peoples
party state central committee and master
of ceremonies, introduced Rev. W. q,
Todd, who invoked divine blessing.
Then Gov. Humphrey spoke briefly,
congratulating his successor. When
Gov. Liewelling appeared the first real
party demonstration of the occasion was
shown. In his address he said in part
1.-THE survival of the fttest" is a
government of brntes and reptiles, and
such philosophy must give place to a
government which recognizes human
brotherhood to protect the rights OF the
laborer and producer. Sectional ami
mosities should be forgotten. The state
Is greater than the party, but the clti-
zen is greater than the state, while the
family the citizen produces is the price
less level of our civilization. The prob
lem for the government is how to make
it possible for citizen to live by his
own labor. If it fails of these things it
ceases to be of advantage to the citizen e.
He is absolved from his allegiance, and
is no longer held by civil complct. But
the government is not failure. This is
a generation which has come to the res
cue. Conscience is in the saddle and
the grandeur OF civilization shall be EN-
phasized by the dawn OF new era, in
which the people shall reign, when the
withered hand of want shall not be cut
stretched for charity; wnen liberty,
equality and justice shall have Rerma-
nent abiding phases in this republic.
The oath of office was then admin
istered by Chief Justice Horton.

RIaine's Great Vitality.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 10.-An-
other astonishing and unexpected i'm
provemerU in the condition of Blame
occurred in the early hours this morning.
At a. m. the physicians announced
that he had been worse since p. M,
and at that hour he was still losing
strength. The family then gathered in
the room adjoining, fearing the worst,
but the patient lost no more strength,
and at 2 a. m. he was sleeping quietly,
with no indications OF immediate dis
solution, and the family retired, His
rest continued unbroken until daylight.
At 3 o'clock DR.. johnson said Blaine
was likely to die any time, but at 5 he
said there was no probability of death
for some hours at least. Half an hour
later, on leaving the house, he said there
was no immediate danger of death.
DR.. johnson returned at the house at
1890 and remained half an hour. On
leaving he said Blaine was better than
during the night, and his condition as
favorable as could be expected. He
continued to take nourishment,

cargoes S1So,0O0: sixty empty barges

river men, who have been on board
night and day since the forming of the
gorge.

In another instance barmaid made

such cases Of imposition and ex-

cannot put stop to this sort

has been assured in the strongest man

Ano' her cause of complaint which
should be removed is tile absence of
seats on the grounds. There is no
chance for visitors to rost unless they
sit on the ground. Sightseeing is very
tiresome, and people cannot be expected

be an abundance of free seats provided,
and they should be placed thickly,

DIR. HIBBERD EXPLAINS.
Shows Why the Cholera RACES Throughout
the Winter in Russia.

The address of the venerable DIR. Hib-
herd, of Richmond. before the recent sani-
tary conference. has caused some criticism,
because he held that the cholera germs osn-
not live between certain temperatures. MIR.
Berg. deputy to Secretary Metcalf. wrote
to DIR. Hibberd regarding the statements.
and yesterday received letter from him.
in which he said:
Dear Sir-Nour note of the Sd inst states that
parties listening to my address before the SAM
tary conference on the 9th ult have since made
Il double inquiry which may be restated thus:
II my figures of the temperature limits OF the
life and activity or the cholera spirilufn
rect how Is ii that the cholera has prevailed 20
extent in Russia all winter! | reply:
There Is "a slight, but inDlaterial, difference III
the observations or electromagnetic touching the
extremes OF temperature within which the
cholera germ may live and multiply Stemberg.
in his great work, Manual OF Bacteriology,"
published within the year, says. page 5Oi
1.-The thermal death point of the cholera
sprillum in recent cultures In fiesh-peptOne-
gelatine as determined by the writer tl5S7l is
529." The equivalent OF 52 centIgrade is
1850 Fahrenheit.
On page SOL he says the germ "does not grew
at temperature above 400 or below Ia, equiv
lively" and the same page he describes the
''Geatine-plate culture ut 220 c." equivalent 10
7l.6o Fahrenheit. Omitting fractions these are
the figures used in my communication To the
sanitary conference.
Touching the cholera In Russia, IL will be OBJ
served that the extent OF its prevalence during
the winter has been but a fraction or its extent
last summer and autumn. This doubtless
due to the frost limiting Its transportation and
killing all germs exposed TO its direct influence.
But the houses Oh the Russians including the
living rooms, cookeries. most OF the mercantile
establishments and Industrial institutions, are
kept warm, In most OF them, probably, the
temperature not at any tiIDe falling below the
fatal So, and the germ thus preserved finding
their way into human intestines, meet with
temperature and other conditions suited TO their
rapid development. This Is the whole story OF
winter cholera i'll Russia aud every other cOun-
try that has a winter temperature. Very re-
specially, JAMES K. HIBBERD.

THE reports of commercial and finan-
cial agencies show that the general bus
mess of the country is depressed. Ev-
erything moves sluggishly and there is
an evident disposition TO go slow and
not to branch out. An air of uncertain
ty and insecurity seems to prevail
There must be some cause for this, and
che Journal believes il is owing to the
uncertainty felt in financial centers
with reference to Mr.. Cleveland's atti-
tude and the action of his party in re-
gard to the Sherman silver law. The
best financial minds and the most con-
servative business men of the country
are a unit In demanding the repeal of
this law. and until it is done no assur-
anees of the President or Secretary of
the Treasury that the parity of gold.
silver and paper shall be maintained
will avail. No doubt they mean what
they say, bat their talk does not alter
the situation q particle. The compul-
sorry purchase Of silver by the govern
ment goes on. the expectation of gold
continues. and day by day the situation
grows more critical. Ii is the Presi-
dents attitude on the silver question
and the consequent uncertainty and in
security that makes business unsettled.
