The Whole Hog or None.

In accordance with notices pub
lished in some of the leading pa
pers it appears that a meeting will
be held IN this city on the Oath
inst, for the purpose of arranging
fusion between the Populists and
the Democrats for the purpose of
putting out a joint set of electors
in the pending election The Ad-
vocate is frank to say that it can
not see upon what basis a fusion
can be arranged between the Pop
ulists and the Democrats, unless it
be upon the agreement on the part
of both committees to disband their
respective parties and to erect up
on the ruins of both a silver party.
If a fusion be at all justifable the
result sought to be accomplished
could be much more quickly at
tanned by retiring Sewall and plac-
ing Watson along with Bryan.
However,from this fusion business,
however it may result, the Advo-
cate begs to be excused. We see
no necessity for doing things by
halves, and whenever it appears to
MS to be necessary to take a half
Populist ticket we shall then be
about ready to swallow the full
dose. If half dose of Populism
is good, full dose must be CORES
pondingly better. If silver is to
be enthroned above the Democracy,
then the rentention of the name
Democracy can but tend to confuse
people and to keep anti Democrats
from the new organization, hence
the party should be called the SSH
yer party. "-B. r. Advocate.

The sending of Bryan and Sewall del
egates from Louisiana to the Electoral
College seems to be a conceded fact. but
the fight in the North and West is to be
fast and furious. and great deal of
doubt exists as to the result. Both Dem
ocrats and Republicans claim certain
ty of victory, but We have learned long
since not to put much confidence in
such claims.

their services. The sister Superior
ess has full power to decide as to
their merits and fitness for tn,
work, and the propriety of retain
ing or. Diminishing them. She can
also at any time discharge a nuiss
for misconduct or inefficiency. On
completing the course, after pass
ing satisfactory examination they
receive a diploma signed by ths
corps of instructors of the charity
hospital and the superintendent Of
nurses.
It was very beautiful to watch
these faithful, philanthropic young
women discharging their various
duties yesterday. The sister supe-
rioress, seeing the interest of the
reporter, suggested that tour of
the hospital should be made. From
ward to ward, the nurses, though
taken unawares, were found earn
estly at their work. The most
scrupulous order and cleanliness
prevailed from the great open
wards, themselves teeming with
patients, to the cabinets and linen
rooms and by-corners of the hos
pital. In the children's wards the
gentle nurses moved quickly and
noiselessly about, now bending ten
derby over a patient, soothing the
fevered brow, now gently dressing
blister or wound, again holding
the hand of some fevered nervous
one, the tender, strong touch CIV
ing renewed strength and courage.
There were some half-dozen nurses
acting the patient mother to little
tiny specks of humanity in the ma
ternity words, while the mother
herself quietly slept: such wee.
wee things were these babies, born
in the great wards of the charity
hospitals, and tenderly nursed and
cared for as though they were the
petted darlings of the rich.
From here we crossed over to
the mems wards, where the nurses
have been engaged in earnest SER
vice for the last year and a half.
Tie superioress explained that no
course of training would be COM
plete if it did not include service
in the hospital, in the departments
exclusively assigned to men and
boys. In each section there were
two nurses stationed, under the SUI
pervision of Sister of Charity.
Thus has the training school per-
fected an all-round course of train
ing, which will be of incalculable
service to the nurse when she goes
forth to enter upon the practice of
her profession.
