In the language Of Col. Rainey
Williams, of Fort Smith, we, too, say;
"Let our senators stand to their guns;
let them not forget that the United
States Senate is the sheet anchor OF
the constitution, and that this is the
one time of all times when the anchor
should hold the ship, and prove its
worthiness. Let them remember
that when silver has been stricken
down it will matter little who struck
the foul blow; the rape and the muir
der will have been accomplished as
completely and as brutally as il the
Republicans Of the House had done
it all themselves"

| age estimate of a mortality of one-third
among the Indian pilgrims in each year,
when there is 10 epidemic of cholera,
is clearly established. and the belief
! is expressed, founded on such corro-
! boratiye statistics as are obtaindble.
that fully one-third Of all pilgrims To
Mecca perish in every year.
The Indian officials assert that the
| cholera plaques which periodically
sweep around the world have their
origin i'll the filth Of Mecca and Me-
dina" There is a great scarcity of
water in these places. and the quality
of the little obtainable is bad The
famous Holy Well at Mecca offers the
most complete conditions of spreading
disease. 1t ordinarily contains but lit
tie water. One of the most essential
devotiOnS in the pilgrimage is to battle
in and drink of the water from this
well, and its brink is always crowded
with pilgrims, some drawing its water
and pouring it over their persons. 9th
erS dipping it up in cups and gOurds
and drinking it. The water used for
bIthing runs directly back into the
well, and thus diseases are directly
spread.
The authorities did for time this
year close up the We'll. Drainage in
the city there is little or none, and the
most ordinary sanitary precautions
were utterly disregarded by the choked
crowds of pilgrims. Not alone cholera
is thus ured and spread, but the holy
cities are hotbedS Of smallpox and
other like terrible diseases. The same
conditions are true of FL Tor. Jeddah
and Camaran, and the Indian health
officials will for the protection of its
people as well as for the sake of the
cOunry's reputation, make strong en-
deavOrS to induce the authorities of the
holy places of pilgrimage to take an
interest in drainage and general santa
ton; to have more Scavengers even if
they have to have fewer priests. They
think that the western nations might
prOtitably take an interest i'll the con-
dition of things in Arabia, and the re-
suit of their Investigations will be of |
fered in the hope that steps will be !
taken to crush out the cholera plague !
in what they assume to prove is its !
real endemic home.

Breeding Place Of the Plague.

Breeding Place Of the Plague.
Shocking as are the statistics of NOR
tality among the pilgrims to Mecca re-
ported from Tunis 4 few days ago.
where of 5000 who set out but half
the number returned, the death rate
of this year is but little greater than
that of ordinary years The health
officials of Bombay and other Indian
cities, according to the New York Sun,
have for some time been collecting
facts and statistics to show that India
does not deserve the i'll reputation it
has of being the endemic home Of
cholera" but that Arabia is the home
of the plague, and they are preparing
to make strenuous efforts to arouse the
Arabian authorities and convince them
of the fact, and to have them apply 4
remedy. Some of the statistics printed
in the Bombay Gazette reveal a terri
ble state of affairs.
According to the official returns of
the health officer of Bombay, of 1000
pilgrims who left that city for Mecca
during the past eight years only co.
600 have come back. Thirty pilgrims
in every hundred have persisted II
every year of that period, and very
many Of those who survived TO return
home have come back only to die OF
disease contracted on the pilgrimage
The facts adduced go to prove that the
pilgrims do not carry disease with
them from India. There is 4 rigid in
spection at Bombay before embarl1a
ton, and every pilgrim is required tc
pass medical examination, to undergo
a certain qlarantining process, and t
possess a certificate of good health
The mortality on the voyage from Bonn

the pilgrims have entered the hol.
cities, and during the return, that TIT
mortality is great.
