GOFmRn's Work.

If Senator German should now visit the
great Washington gun factory he would no
doubt be gratiied to see some Of the re-
suits of his enmity toward the navy at the
last session of Congress, and it Is quite
certain that his reception would be equally
as cool as that of yesterday at Snow Hill.
Instead of this plant running on full time
and employing upv ard of one thousand

TIE Bishop Of Westminster,

However disappointing it may have been
to Washington Episcopalians, Bishop Pa
ret's decision to remain in Baltimore when
the diocese is divided was not surprising.
His earlier associations would draw him
back to Washington, to be sure, but for
several years he has been. on account of
official necessities, a resident of Baltimore
ard now in his later period of life he doubt
less breads a change, and an assumption of
the great task Of organizing a new diocese.
But there is plenty of excellent material
among Washington's clergymen for bish-
cp. Indeed the capital is unusually rich in
such talent. There are. several men here
any one of whom would be an ornament to
the house of bishops, and a splendid head
of local church affairs. The new bishop
too, will be an official of unusual Importance
In the church as, although the proposition
to establish a primacy here was defeated,
the diocese that includes the capital of the
ration and the site of so many institutions
of learning that are now here and are al
ready projected WILL it Is conceded, soon
become the center of church authority.
The bishop of Washington, whoever he may
be, Is destined to occupy a notable place in
the religious history of America.

No Reason for Alarm.

The calm and sensible statement by a
prominent physician concerning the preva-
lence of typhoid fever in the city which
was printed in The Star last evening
should allay the fears that the disease is
epidemic here. The disease can be averted.
1t is by no means as dangerous or threat
ening as diphtheria, scarlet fever or small
pox, all of which are more or less preva-
lent in every large city each season. 1t
has Eot so large a death rate and is more
easily handled by intelligent physicians
and nurses IL detected in time. But best
of all. 1t can be avoided by careful living.
Certain rules that were detailed by The
Stars informant yesterday, and that have
already been briefly mentioned in these
columns. are practically sure to save those
who observe them conscientiously from at
tacks Of the fever. If the people will but
remember one fact all will be we'll: Ty-
phoid fever is contracted only by the alb
sorption through the stomach of living
bacillus. A strict avoidance of such ma
terials of food and drink as are apt to
contain the disease germ will therefore
prevent infection. The boiling of all water
and milk. abstinence from the use of ice
gathered from doubtful quarters, and care
In the preparation of solid foods are the
opment of the disease. 1t is useless for the
citizens to become alarmed at the prospect
for it is by no means as threatening as
many people believe. The smallpox scare
of last winter was far more reasonable
than the incipient fright that some think
to be aow on the townspeople. Words of
warning are not to be taken as danger sig
nails 1t is the course of reason to seek for
information that may prevent trouble, even
though the chances are most remote for
the coming of danger. The best preventive
remedies against any disease are comfort
able mind and sense of security born of
rigid adherence to the rules of right liv-
ing. The situation does not grow more
threatening and the physicians of the city
unanim ously declare that the so-caIled cpl
demic Is myth and that the prevalence
of the disease is not cause for alarm

A Strange Nomination.

1t is not remarkable that the republicans
of New York are disposed to bolt the NOM
nation of ex-Police Inspector Alexander
S. Williams for the state senate. 1t would
be the height of folly and insincerity for
them to support such a nominee, with the
unsavory record that the Lexow inquiry
uncovered. Else why any investigation
1t would be sad waste OF time and money
to expose the corruption OF the police &C.
partment if the besmirched officials are to
be allowed to step from the positions that
they had been dishonOring into other
places of trust. A man who made u bad
inspector of police is very apt to make a
bad senator. His tendency to crooked
ness could lot all have been incidental to
his position. The fact that he now
aspires to become a law-maker instead Of
a law-breaker is additional reason for his
rejection by New Yorks' voters. The man
who Is inclined to violate good statutes IS
Just the sort of chap to aid in creating
regulations that make differing and official
malfeasance a safer pastime than before.

John Pope HOdnett Again,

The last drop in the bucket of Lord
Sackville's humiliation Is the claim by the
glorious John Pope Hodnett that he saved
Sackville's life by informing him of the
Irish plots for his assassination, and that
his information was the foundation for
Lord Sackville's demand upon our govern
ment for protection. This development is
calculated to increase the broad smile that
played across the public countenance over
Sackvllle's plaintive story of his dime
museum offer, into what Artemus Ward
would call "highlayryus lafture" That
this distinguished member of the top
loftiest of diplomatic corps-for we all
know that the English diplomatssbeat crea-
tion for astuteness and ability-should have
been duped, first by an innocent hayseed
Californian, of the alleged name of Murchi-
son, into writing a most compromising
letter; and should next be humbugged, de-
moralized and scared out of his wits by the
blatherskite crank, John Pope Hodnett, is
calculated to promote the hilarity of the
nations. John Pope has figured in Wash
ington in many lines of the crank role,
sometimes at the head CT a squad of
negro followers bearing the magniloquent
title Of THE United Labor League of
America" sometimes as pretender to the
throne of England, or to the occupation of
the White House, or to the ownership of
the states of New York, New Jersey, Penn
sylvania and Maryland, Including Wash
lngton and the District of Columbia" as
heir to the Earls Of March, the Earls of
Shrewsbury. the Lords of Baltimore, the
Dukes of buckingham and the Dukes of
York." but 1t was never dreamed that he
would turn up as the confident and savior
of great and noble English diplomat; and
that his John Pope Hodnett's) disclosures
concerning this most diabolical and I'M
heard-of plot against Sackville's life should
furnish the data for, great International
complications. Verify. there Is only one
John Pope Hodnett. and there is only one

The members of the Good Government
Clubs in New York have recently been in
vestigatng the condition of the public
school system of that city. and the results
are shocking. The sanitary condition in
great majority of the buildings was
found t. be of the most wretched character
possible. The committee that went through
the city discovered that the average build
ing was dark to the point of threatening
the sight OF every child there in attendance
The over-crowding made necessary by the
lack of accommodations resulted in the
placing of three children on two seats, in
many cases, thus causing the middle child
to occupy a section interrupted by an open
space. This made certain forms of disease
quito prevalent In most of the schools
gas must be lighted on all but the very
brightest of days. The air-space is small
and the supply Is bad. Many of the schools
ire surrounded by the very worst neigh
