The York County Democrats will have
to get together and revise their opinion
of the German bill At their county
convention they declared:
That we denounce the Senate compro-
mise for sacrificing Democratic princi
Piles and betrayal of the peoples
trust, and being enacted under circum-
stances inconsistent with party loyalty
or public honor.
ssThey can now amend the resolution
in this way:
Resolved. That by allowing the Senate
compromise to become law our great
leader, Grover Cleveland, has purged it
of all the sacrifice of Democratic princi-
Piles and betrayal of the peoples trust.
Resolved, That when we denounced
the senate bill we had been reading the
Presidents letter ana thought he would
not allow it to become law, and that
therefore our condemnation of the bill
was given under misrepresentation.
Resolved, That we believe that we did
the bill great injustice, and that we now
really think it is one of the wisest laws
ever placed on the statute book.
Resolved, That copy Of these resolu-
lions be published in the Eastern Argus,
and that an apology be sent to Senator
German, and congratulations TO the
President for the mastery manner in
which he has vindicated his
own honor and harmonized the Demo
crazy.

DR.. KOcH's DiPHTHERlA REMEDY.
The Proposed Use of it by the Ny. City
Authorities


DR.. Herman NJ. Biggs, bacterioloigst OF
the Health Department who has just re-
turned from trip to Europe to study
the new method now employed by DR..
Koch in Berlin for the treatment of
diphtheria, referred to recently by DR..
Edison before the Board of Health. made
known the results of his study today.
The method employed by DIR. Koch is
known as the anti-toxine treatment, and
is pronounced by him an absolute cure
for diphtheria if the patient is inoculated
within thirty six hours after exposure to
the disease
The Investigations of DR.. Koch have
b cen carried on for about a year in the
Institute for the Treatment of Infectious
Diseases, Berlin, of which he is the head
Q bservations made in over $50 cases
show, DIR. Briggs says. that the new
treatment produces wonderful results.
The cause of death from diph liberia be-
ing actually blood poisoning from the
poison created by the Loeff1er, or diph-
| liberia, bacilli, the investigation first
| sought an antidote for this poison. 1t
was noted that persons who had had any
| disease were for a greater or less time af-
| forwards immune from it. 1t was con-
ceived that this immunity arose from an
anti-toXine which prevailed over the poi
son of the germ, and DR.. Koch set about
producing this unknown agent. Large
animals were given the Loeffier bacilli
in small doses, and though at first made
sick from the poison, they finally be-
came immune. This occurred in from
four to six months Satisfied that the
anti-toxine bad developed in the blood
of an animal, a portion of it was thrown
off and the animal allowed to recover,
when the treatment was renewed. Lest
the blood when injected into the human
body should produce fever, which usual
| ly results the serum was extracted from
