The republicans would doubtless like to
known just where Joe Marley, Of Maine,
Is at in political sense. During Mr..
Blaine's lifetime there was never any
doubt as to Manley's position, but since
his death the minor Maine boss has been
little at sea himself and has kept his
party guessing as TO his whereabouts.
Ills importance at present lies in the fact
that he has been commissioned 10 open re-
publican headquarters in New York in
September Already fractional lines are
beginning to be formed in the party and
the leaders Of the factions would like to
know where to spot Manley.

Gen. Malone has taken no part in any
Of the great ex-confederate celebrations
since his change of political Affiliations.
He declined an invitation to be present at
the unwilling of the r. f. Lee statue at
Richmond some time ago, and he refused
TO attend the Davis exercises at Richmond
yesterday. Why he should thus cut him
self off from his old associations cannot be
understood, unless his conscience forbids
him to mingle with the people he sought
TO betray into the hands Of the repub-
licans

The series of demonstrations in honor
Of Jefferson Davis that eliminated at
Richmond yesterday was most remark
able. At New Orleans and Richmond and
all along the route of the funeral train
the people turned out to pay last trib-
ute to the man who years ago was the
embodiment of the principles and aspira-
tions of the south Yet the demonstra-
tions were without political significance
No desire to revive the issues of the past
was expressed or implied in any of the
functions attendant upon the removal of
the body. The south merely desired to
Illustrate her reverence for her great son
and leader; and that she did in a becom-
ing manner

A Noisy Bee.

If Hon. John G. New, lately consul gen
eral to London, is to be believed Secre-
tary of State Gresham has q very noisy
presidential bee in his bonnet. Mr. New,
on his arrival in New York the other day,
stated thai the buzzing of the bee was
quite audible Ic him in London, The bee
must have annoyed Mr.. New great deal.
1t is one Of the things to which he called
attention as soon as he reached his native
land, and if. it made such an impression
upon him when he was thousands
of miles distant, how much greater
must the impression be that
it will make upon him when he reaches
the Office of his newspaper, the Indian
apolis Journal. We may reasonably ex-
pect to see constant references to it in the
columns of his paper. No doubt he will
tell the public all about it, how it came to
get into Secretary Gresham's bonnet, how
long it will likely remain there and
whether it has chance within the next
year or two for making presidential honey
for the secretary.
Evidently the ex-consul thinks the
secretary helped to deprive him of the
fat place he held in London, place that
pays the occupant something like $4,000
year.
1t is fair to presume that Mr. New in
tends to make life miserable for that
bee. He will crush the life ont of
it with his newspaper if he can He will
not have on easy job, because a bee whose
buzzing is audible across the Atlantic
must be a big one, and have an immense
amount of vitality
In the meantime the secretary doesn' t
appear to be disturbed in the least by the
bee. In fact, he doesn't seem to be con-
scious of its existence II may be that he
doesn't know that there is presidential
bee in his bonnet. His hearing, probably,
not being stimulated by feeling of hate,
is not as acute as Mr.. News.
One of the interesting things in west
ern politics during the next year or two
may be Mr.. News efforts to kill the bee
in Secretary Gresham's bonnet. He is a
vigorous fighter and his war on the bee
may not be without sensational features.

Secretary OF State Gresham has not
received notice from the Chinese govern
ment that it viii retaliate in the event of
the enforcement of the Geary law. If he
had, and felt inclined to let the subjects
o. China III this country remain uudis-
turbed, ne could not supersede the act of
congress upheld by the supreme court
and suspend the operations of the law
Chinese exclusion is now in the hands of
tho treasury department, not the state
department. and the reason it has not
been put into effect is the lack of money
for that purpose.

One Case at Hamburg.

The death from cholera that occurred
at Hamburg day or two ago has created
considerable alarm in Berlin and other
German cities, but is not viewed with I'M
easiness in this country. The papers in
commenting on it say that it was, in all
probability, a sporadic case, and that
there may be other similar cases
during the summer. 1t is sincerely to be
hoped that it was a sporadic case i, 1t is
reasonable to suppose that there are still
cholera germs in Hamburg, because tn at
city's sanitary condition, although great
ly improved since the epidemic of last
year. is still far from satisfactory.
As matter of fact, however, no one
knows whether the case was sporadic
or not Statements in respect to it
are not much more valuable than guesses.
One PERSONS opinion as to its character is
about as good as another's. Under the
circumstances the wiser plan is to act as
if it were the forerunner of an epidemic.
Nothing will be lost by taking precau-
tionary measures.
In this country and Europe there should
be a thorough system of sanitation
mitted that the greatest preventive of
cholera is cleanliness. In the seaboard
cities especially no time should be lost in
perfecting quarantine regulations, and
enforcing sanitary measures.
1t is not believed that there is much
danger Of the disease getting a Judgment
in this country this season, even if it
should become epidemic in European
cities, but it would be folly to take any
unnecessary risks.
The quarantine officer at New York is
confident that cholera will not get into
that port, even if it should break out on
board ships arriving there His conf
dence is calculated to allay the measi-
ness throughout the country that the an
nouncement of case of cholera at Ham
burg and the appearance of the disease at
several places in France naturally
create. The success that attended the
efforts to keep it out of New York last
year seems to justify the confidence that
the health authorities of that city feel in
their ability to keep it out this year.
Our government has good inspector at
Hamburg. He is an officer of the marine
hospital service and was stationed in this
city and at the government quarantine
station at Sapelo for humber of Years
Immediately preceding his appointment
abroad. He win do his duty without fear
or favor If there should be much of a
demand for his services this summer he
would make a name for himself

The Rock Island railroad is iu posses
sion Of Jewel 81 a train dispatcher. Tie
believes he can induce rain, aud the sue
cess Of some experiments he has been
making inclines his employers and the
people along the line Of the road to put
more or less faith IN his claim. The dis
patcner confines his efforts az rainmakiug
20 the line Of the Rock Island road, and il
is said that in consequence the crops
along the line are the best in the country.
The railroads Of Georgia might do well
70 employ a corps of train dispatchers
having such peculiar power. With their
aid the farmers might all make good
crops, which would give the roads more
business. More business. would mean
greater earnings, and greater earnings
might result in the discharge of some re-
ceiverships.

A local item in the Columbia Is. o.
State says "A large filter arrived yes
terday and is being put up at the dispen-
sary. Mr.. Traxler says that all the Con
garee river water furnished by the city
will be filtered thoroughly before it is
used in the dispensary at all" There is
something peculiar about that. The dis
pensary referred to is the state whisky
store. But what is the filtered water to
be used forl Is the Congaree water,
which the citizens of Columbia use for
drinking purposes too foul and muddy to
wash bottles in' Surely Gov. Tillman
does not mean to increase the states
revenue by the sale of mixture of fit
cred Congaree water and whisky Such
deception would cause even the palmetto
tree blown in the bottle to hang its head.

able to do anything but march and make

the matter has become known. Many in

One Of her warmest supporters is Gen.

that Miss Smith will be given the office.
