But these health and education officials
are neither ld-msidsnish, nor are they
cranks. They are not timorous, nor are
their regulations unnecessarily severe.
The truth 10 that human experience has
demonstrated that more than three
fourths of all contagious diseases are pre-
ventable. That threo-fourths OF the usual
spread of contagion can be prevented.
That seven-tsnths of the dangerous dis
eases that assall school children, and
which ara contagious. can be prevented
from spreading to the other children of
the school.
Science has demonstrated that there is
no article we handle in everyday life.
or touch in common use, that
may not become the carrier of
the seeds Of contagious diseases.
The New York boards are therefore SIM
ply acting in line with the established
and demonstrated laws of sanitary science.
The example OF the New York boards
Ia good one to be followed in
all other towns and cities. great or small.
Neglect of the precautions outlined have
unQuestionably sent tens of thousands
of children TO untimely graves.

is no relevancy whatever between the
issue before the court relating to the
business or reasonableness of rates Of
freight and the fact that some Rail-
road Commissioner in former times has
been influenced not to exercise the
functions of his office.
But Mr.. LaRus evidently intends to
make an entire cleanup. His conduct
is capable of the Interpretation that he
intends to hunt down every rumor
heretofore put afioat injurious to the
railroad company and give the United
States courts an opportunity to de-
clare that these rumors are false.
There certainly could be no other
object in the wholesale vlliHCa-
tioE to be found in an affidavit
which alleges dishonesty in every man
who has held the position of Railroad
Commissioner of California up<to the
time of his own induction into office.
Mr.. LaRue's position on the stage of
public action should be accepted as the
golden opportunity of the people Of
California to have all the scandal that
has ever been bruited about concerning
railroad influence in politics ventilated
in the courts of the country. If any
one knows of any ScandalouS matter
which they would like to have venti-
lated, Mr.. LaRue's willingness to make
affidavit to it's verify is an opportunity
which should not by any means be over
looked.

AN IMPORTANT POSITION.

The Hon. Grove L. Johnson has been
appointed to a position on the Pacific
Railroads Committee of the House. A
San Francisco contemporary has said
the position was due to the Hon. James
G. Mcguire. Our contemporary, how
claim to the position on the Pacific
Railroads Committee clear. The San
Francisco Congressman has shown
himself to be impracticable. The ad
justment Of the relation between the
railroad and the Government is a bus
mess matter. The Government will
never take possession of the road and
operate it. The people of the United
States will not tolerate that proceed
ing. Mr.. Mcguire has declared himself
in favor of that and many other So
cialistic policies. His presence on the
committee would simply have obstruct-
ed a business adjustment. The reia-
ton Of the Pacific railroads to the
Government is one involving the
payment to the Government of
certain amounts which will be
due from the railroads to the ma
tional treasury. Mr.. Johnson is able
and versatile. He combines legislative
skill with broad business capacity, and
in selecting him from among all the
members of the California delegation
Speaker Reed has shown his apprecia-
ton of the relative abilities of our Cali
fornia congressman.

THE DAY.

The Christmas holiday is once more
with us, bringing to heart and hand
all the beneficences and good will. all
the tenderness, renewed loves and
sweet charities, that so work into the
web of the day as into that of no other.
No holiday comes SO near to being uni
versal, no other day exercises gentle
offices so generally among civilized peo-
pies. It is a day that has grown out
of and beyond its religious lines, and
has spread it's wings of mercy and
loving kindness over even the peoples
who deny the Christian religion, yet
frankly confess the influence of the
Christian festival. Indeed, while it is
with some degree of justice claimed
that the holiday has other origin than
that ascribed by the Christian Church,
it is as a natal day of Him who spake
as never man spake that it is best
known and as such exercises its won
derfully softening and humanizing in
fiuence. There is no need to preach a
Christmas sermon in this place, no de-
mand that the duties and privileges Of
the day shall be emphasized in words.
These things the day does for itself. Its
lesson is written in all hearts. For
Californians let the day be one not only
of kindly Offices, gentle ministrations
and outpourings of affection, mercy and
charity, but one also of thanksgiving
and praise. Let there be mirth and
merry making, hearty cheer and ex>
carousal or excess or forgetfulness Of
the great fact that this is the day oe
loving kindness and Of peace and mercy,
that should fll every human heart.

PREVENTING SPREAD OF DISEASE

People who tlp-tilt their nosss at the
rigid rules of sanitary science. to prevent
| the spread of contagious diseases. will be
apt to consider the orders of the Board Of
Health and the Board of Education of
New York City as the products of cranks
and timorous souls when they direct, as
they have done recently, that:
Use of states, slate pencils and sponges
shall be discontinued in public schools.
According 10 requirement pupils shall be
supplied with pencils aud penholders, each
pupil to retain those received in a box pro-
vided Tor The purpose. such boX 20 be marked
with the pupiPs name. Pencils and penbold-
ers sha not be transferred from one pu pil to
another without suitable disinfection.
All school property left IN school build
| ing by child Sick with any contagious dis
ease and all such property found in an apart
ment occupied by family Ia which 81 case of
smallpox, typhus fever, diphtheria, scarlet
fever or measles has occurred shall be taken
by the Health Department for dlsinfection or
destruction.
"Books which are taken home by pupils
! shall be covered regularly once each month
with brown manila paper.
"Places tor drinking water on the ground

| tiuued and q covered pitcher provided TOR
4
placed before every session. A numbered
] cup to be kept in the classroom, shall be
issued TO each pupil. No interchange OF cups
shall be allowed"
| But these are only por tion of rules o
the same order. For they run on to re-
quirement that when a contagious disease
occurs In the family OF q pupil, all the
children from that family shall be e1-
cluded from the school. All the other
children in the school are then TO be
questioned daily about the health of their
families until the period of contagion has
passed. When child is sent from school
because of throat disease. the teacher is
required to at once notify the Division of
| Contagious Diseases.
Once week each teacher is required to
| file report OF the names and addresses
OF all children of the school reported
sick, 40 matter from what cause. So. too
is is required that the floors. door knobs

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Record Union" to all its readers
and to all people of the land, extends
the congratulations of the day, ana
wishes every one Merry Christmas.
The very latest advices tend still to
show that English feeling is drifting
over to a conservative view OF the trou-
BILE with the United States, and that the
popular desire is for an amicable ad-
justment of the Venezuelan difficulty.
Our English friends are discovering
that Americans are in earneSt-that
there is no Yankee practical joke" in
the business.
In remembering our own to-day let
us not be so absorbed by home demands
as to forget the homeless, the poor, the
sick and the destitute. So little, SO very
little brings cheer and light to the way
farer, the suffering and the poverty
stricken, that there are none with some
thing but can bring joy to some hearts
which otherwise would be cheerless and
clouded on this day of love and good
will.
The Single Tax men and opponents of
the Monroe doctrine who held meet
ing of protest in New York City Monday
night did not bring together in the
Cooper Union a tolerant audience. This
is to be regretted, for if the Monroe
doctrine has any virtue in it at all it
can stand debate and examination The
protesting speakers should have been
listened to patiently and respectfully.
1t was their right of free speech. They
had the right to promote the meeting
for the express purpose for which it was
called, and those who came to hear and
did not agree with the speeches, but
Kissed and raised a row, disgraced
themselves and put a blush upon the
cheek of fair play. We believe in the
Monroe doctrine; that the President has
expressed himself on the Venezuela
question sensibly and periodically; but
we believe in free speech and the right
of others to hold against the doctrine,
and to pass resolutions rebuking the
President, and denouncing the doctrine
of interference. If men are not per-

It would seem that all the City Trus-
tees have to do in common justice to
the taxpayers and to themselves, since
they are sitting as judges, is to ascer-
tain whether the specifications were
followed in the macadamizing of Tenth
street. If they were, the contractor
should be paid. If, however, he de-
parted from the specifications he did so
at his peril. There was no authority to
vary the calls of the specifications; no
one is invested with power to justify
the contractor in doing any work upon
the street not called for by the contract.
If the specifications call for no fine ma
terial to be put upon the street, then it
is there without justification and the
street for which the people contracted
has not been made. How the Trustees
can wrestle with the matter passes sur
prise. They have no right to consider
whether the street is a good or a bad
street as now laid down. Their duty is
simply this, to ascertain whether the
contractor followed the specifications
If he had the right to depart from them
and put on 81, 100 worth of material not
called for by the contract, he had the
right to increase the cost of the street
by $4,000, or any other sum. If the
specifications call for a given size of
stone for the surfacing, and he has un-
der any excuse whatsoever, put on sand,
clay or finer stone than called for, he
has not built to the contract and has no
legal demand before the board The
simple comparison of the specifications
with the facts as to the constituents of
the roadway should settle this whole
and now long drawn-out matter.

BERLIN. April 29.-The North German
Gazette defends the policy of Germany in
the far east and accuses Great Britain of
inconsistency in having, at the beginning
of the war, supported China while Ger
many throughout counseled Japan to
act with moderation. The fact that Ger
many finds herself in harmony with
France and Russia, the paper adds, is a
matter of congratulation as a step in the
honorable and open policy of peace which
she pursues in Europe. and adds that
Japan can derive no advantage by insist
ing upon the ratification within the stip-
ulated time as the objections of France,
Russia and Germany will remain in force.
LONDON, April 29.-The Times tomor-
row will publish a dispatch from Kobe
saying the Russian and German minis
ters left Toxic for Kobe yesterday. 1t is
supposed they intend to seek an inter
view with Count Ito, the president of the
Japanese council of ministers and with
Count Matsu, the japanese minister of
foreign affairs. The French minister is
also expected here at the same time.

yer bullion as marketable commodity
at this time commands a low price, my
answer is that if gold had been conspired
against, persistently assaulted by foul
means as well as fair. stabbed in the dark
and in the light and in the back and un-
der the fifth rib, wherever else dagger
could be planted, for nearly a quarter of
century past, it would be en- q far worse
crippled condition than silver. No other
form of money on the face of the earth
could have withstood as silver has done
such a malignant unsparing crusade as
the last twenty two years have witnessed
in this country. 1t still holds it's place
in the affections and confidence of the
people. Battered. bruised and tattered as
it has been yet it will buy today all that
gold will buy and pay all the debts that
gold will pay. unless a special contract
has been made for gold. The American
people will never give it up and the
sooner the minions of aggressive. insolent,
consolidated wealth and arrogant apos-
ties of gold monometallism realize and
act upon this fact the better and safer
will it be for them in the future of the
country. In every state and territory
from the western side of the Allegheny
mountains to the Pacific coast silver has
