An nlegible prescription has Just caused
the death of q child in New York. Most
people will probably lay the blame for this
fatal accident upon the unfortunate drug
clerk whose carelessness or. to be more
just. whose inability to decipher the badly
written Latin of a careless physician.
caused him to use the wrong ingredient
There has undoubtedly been a great deal Of
gross carelessness on the part Of prescr!p-
ton clerks and there Is no question that
there Is need now for radical reforms in
the regulation of the drug trade. 1t has
been suggested many and many time that
all poisons in the druggists stock should
be kept In distinctive bottles that instantly
make known their character to the clerk
when he touches them. The German sys-
tenn of regulating the drug business has
demonstrated its excellence and might well
be initiated in this country. In the
present instance the popular clamor
against the drug clerk. however. should
be abated while the people think for
awhile about the responsibility of the ply
stefan who persists in using obsolete Latin
to designate common modern remedies and
who fails to write legibly difficult names
that should be indicated with the greatest
possible care. One of the best reforms in
deed would be the abolition Of the Latin
phraseology altogether.

A few more such decisions as the one
rendered Wednesday by the New York Court
of Appeals in the case of little child who
" as injured by being run over by Brook
Ign trolley car will do mere to hasten the
equipment CT acknowledgement cars
with tenders than would all the laws that
could be enacted by all the legislatures and
city councils in the land. The unfortunate
girl in whose behalf suit had been entered
was so injured as to be compelled to lose
both of her feet, and as compensation for
her sufrerings and disability jury award
ed her the sum of $4,000. The railroad
company appealed the case and made
very strong fight but by the affirming
decision of the court of appeals must pay
the whole of that sum to the juvenile suf-
ferer-an amount sufficient to equip both
ends Of two hundred and fifty cars. Some
Of the dilatory corporations excuse their
inaction by alleging that none of the fen
ders presented to their notice are perfect
and that some of the best Of them fail at
times when tested. This will be admitted
even by the most ardent advocate of fen
ders. There Is no perfection. OF all the
devices that mans ingenuity has evolved,
there Is not one that cannot be improved
upon. To wait for the perfect fender would
be to have fenderless cars until the coming
Of the millennium.

that period Is heightened into fifteen. and
sometimes eighteen months, owing to the
dilatory methods in vogue. The present
Congressional calendar 10 defective. old
fashioned. and really dangerous. Its revi-
sion should be made the work Of the next
Congress. which. with q long session in
prospect. may well devote the necessary
time to careful. serious and conclusive
consideration Of this important matter An
amendment has been proposed to the con-
sttution providing for the Inauguration of
the president on the thirtieth of April, in
stead Of the fourth of March, but this
change was suggested for climatic rather
than political reasons. The more compre-
hensive and more effective proposition is the
amendment which provides for the holding
OF elections for the House and Senate In No
vember, as now, and the installation of the
new Congress SO chosen at the usual date
of the next December. a month later. The
session should last until April 80, when the
change of administrations could well be
made. with less danger of Indictment
weather, and more convenience to all con-
cerned.
A month Is ample time for the voice Of
the people to be heard by the members
law Ia a relic Of the time when travel be-
tween the states and the capital was diff
cult and slow, when there was no telegraph
and the mail service was poor. and when
the discussion Of public questions was
necessarily tardy and sluggish 1t then re-
Quired months for ideas to become public
property where now the mind of the peo-
pie grasps phases Of national issues IN a
few days. The almost instantaneous diftu-
sion Of intelligence has produced condi-
ton never dreamed of by the trainers of
the constitution. That very conservative
and in most respects safe instrument needs
undermining in particulars which reflect
such vast changes in national conditions.
A session lasting for five months is none
too long. and would greatly tend to equaIize
the sittings of Congress. Three months,
with the usual holidays taken out. cannot
be regarded as sufficient time for the con-
sideratiOn Of the great amount Of business
laid before Congress each winter. The
change would be benefit to both Congress
and the country. The details of the change
would be easy to arrange. Instead Of hold
ing an election for members of Congress
ct the usual time it could be postponed
until the succeeding November, q year
later, when the legislators to serve for two
years from the coming December would be
chosen. The experience of the past few
years Is sufficient to convince most people
that some remedy is required.

The NEXT PRESIDENT
Senator Allison Favored by
CIarkson of Iowa.
REED THE CHOICE OF SQUIRE
Good reason 80. Believe That OIney
VIII Succeed the Late Secretary
Gresham.

NEW York, June 4.-General ]. s.
Clarkson, republican national committee
man from Iowa, in an interview on the
political situation, has pronounced in
favor of Senator Allison. He said:
s'An intelligent observation of the po-
litical situation convinces many republic
cans that Senator Allison will be nom
mated at the next republican convention.
/ myself am convinced that he will be
the best candidate of the republicans,
and, moreover, that he will surely be
elected. have nothing 20 say against
the claims of other republicans, but in
travels have found the very strongest
undercurrent running for Allison. 1 find
this sentiment just as strong in the East
as in the West.
Senator Allison is sound on all COM
mercial and financial questions. Under
him the tariff would be revised, not on
high protection lines, but on lines that
would carry out the great doctrine of
protection. There would be no up
heaYal of the tariff, but it would be sat
isiaetorily adjusted and the mistakes of
the present administration would be
remedied. International bimetalism
would also be established under Senator
Allison. He would not appoint any
half-and-half commission to go abroad
ION this great question as did President
Harrison. International bimetalism
cannot be accomplished by the appoint
ment of any such kind of commission.
Senator Allison would appoint COM
mission composed entirely of inter-
national bimetalists, whose hearts and
souls would be in the cause, and when
the foreign nations became convinced
that such commission had come to talk
to them, the mission would be quickly
successful. Senator Allison's commits
sion on this subject would mean bust
ness, and there would be no uselesl
speeches or tiresome and unsuccessful
debates.
"Senator Allison has had record of 81
years in congress. All that time not q
stain, not spot, not reflection of the
minutest character has rested on hil
long and honorable career. He is a safe
man, and, mark my word for it, he vii
be the candidate OF the conventlon.''
'Where will the convention be held?'
"Why, am IN favor of San Fran
cisco.'

World flom Havana says:
''The whole province of Puerto Prin-
cipe is in state of the widest excite
ment," says merchant who arrived
from there last night. 'sIt may rise up
any movement like an explosion in
powder magazine" Realizing the criti-
cal situation in that region the merchant
sold out his belongings and came here.
The insurgents throughout Puerto
Principe are only awaiting the arrival of
General Maxima Gomez, who is to as
sume command of their forces, and for
whom they ale anxiously looking.
| The houses open in this city for re-
cruiting Cuban soldiers for the revolu-
tion continue enlisting men unmolested.
Santiago is completely surrounded by
rebels, and an attack is momentarily ex-
pected.
kilograms from Santiago represent
that the revolution is growing more and
more serious in that department. San
tiago City has been without meat three
days. A herd of cattle was brought in
to Santiago guarded by force. The
troops were attacked and routed by in
surgents last night.
1t is common knowledge here that the
soldiers of the government do not want
to fight, and that the commissioned Of
icers inflict terrible cruelties on them
during battles to make them fight.

folio.
WAsH1NeToN, June 4.-There is 20
longer any reasonable doubt that the
presiden has fully determined to ask
Attorney General Olney to accept the
state department portfolio. The presi-
dent has not intimated to Olney his pur-
however, he has.stated in substance that
he should ask Olney to accept the place.
He is delaying publishing the announce
ment in order that he might at the same
time name the successor to Olney as at
torney-general. 1t is regarded likely
that Senator Gray's visit to Washington
may have been response to a message
from the president, and it is possible he
may have been offered the attorney-gen-
eralship or consulted theron.

SQUIRE Favors Reed .

LITTLE Rock, N. Y, June 4.-In an
interview, Senator Squire, of Washing
ton, said he rather favored Reed for the
presidency. Asked as to what other
candidates are being talked of in his
state, he replied:
"Well, we hear much said of Allison,
Mckinley, Harrison and Morton. do
not think Morton's age would prevent
him becoming presidential candidate.
He is still hale and harty, and can at
tend to his duties without suffering
much mental or physical strain. Alli-
son has large following in the West; SO
has Mckinley. and the same can be said
of Harrison. Silver will be the great
issue.u
