The U. S. Sanitary Inspector at
Yokohama, DR. Eldridge defends DR..
Bowie from the rharg. If h,v ny
concealed the eyisteuce Of cholera
on the Belgic, on account of his we'll
known good character and skill, and
his personal acquaintance with him;
and states that it might have been
possible that contaminated clothing
or food may have been brought from
Hongkong or smuggled aboard at
Yokohama. He is also evidently
of the opinion that no cases of
cholera occurred during the voyage
of the Belgic. But this does not
even il true, lift the weight OF res
possibility for its introduction here
from the shoulders of our health
officials. Nor do we find nything as
yet done to peace the responsibility
where it belongs. Not even though
over sixty corpses still, from their
loathsome and hurried interments,
cry that matters should not be
hushed up and covered over.

We have waited for the Stars
"small farmer" long while. But
we are now happy. The Star as
sures us "he is coming" Then
again we are sad when we are told
"His appearance may be delayed by
the circumstances of distance and
facilities of travel" If that was all
that will delay him we wouldn't
mind. What about no cheap land, no
roads, and no market after he starts
to raise anything2 Those will delay
him much more than the other gulf.

When the authorities were search

thing that might give clue leading
