JUDGING from the attempted tiff
in the Senate yesterday and pre-
vious events of a similar nature, it
would seem that the upper house
possesses some wonderfully touchy
members. The men who put chips
on their shoulders when criticism
is turned in their direction, are
liable to be in hot water most of
the timefif they enter the political
arena.

MEMBERS OF the House state that
they intend to work havoc in the
appropriation bills when they are
sent down from the Senate, and
even before consideration of the
bills is begun there has been an
attempt made to increase the sal
aries of the officers of the House.
Economy is a good thing, but that
economy is best which begins at
home.

PUBLICITY ACCOMPANIES REPUB-
LICANISM.

Further queries put by "In-
quirer," which appear in another
column, seem to indicate that he
does not draw a distinction be-
tween a republic and form OF
government conducted on the prin-
ciples of a close corporation. In
the first place, he should remem-
Der that in true republic there
should be nothing, outside occa-
sional dealings with foreign pow
ers, that is not open to public in
spection, either through the medium
of the Legislature, the newspapers,
or the individual who may take
sufficient interest in the affairs of
the country to make personal in
vestigation.
The books of the tax Office con-
tain statement of. the values of
the real estate and personal prop
erty owned by every person or
corporation in the country, and it
is safe to say that the tax books in
this country do not contain more
detailed statement of the private
affairs of our property owners than
do those of any town, county or
state in the United States. In
many cities and states of the
larger republic which Hawaii is
endeavoring to copy, the amount
of taxes paid by each person and
corporation is required to be pub
lished in at least one newspaper each
year. By this means the people
know who is bearing the burden of
taxation and they can also form an
idea whether the weight of that
burden is properly divided. We
admit that considerable informa-
ton can be obtained from the tax
books" but unless the figures that
stand on the books are such that
the interested individuals are
ashamed of them, we can see no
reason why any one should object to
their publicity or how they could
be used to the disadvantage of any
one.
Tf mo ora +O have a +r,1a for,,o of
republicanism-a government of,
by and for the people-there is alb
solutely nothing on the tax-books
or any other books relating to our
internal affairs that should not be
free to a public inspection, as ex-
tensive and detailed as any person
or persons may see fit to make. 1t
is Just as absolutely necessary !"
that the people should know
everything" if they want to take
the trouble to go over the figures,
as it is for certain Government
officials to have that knowledge"
If the legislators of this Govern
ment decide that it does not
necessarily follow that the gen
eral public has the same right, con-
else knowledge of business affairs
of an individual or corporation
as Government officials, in so doing
they show that they are losing
sight of the foundation principles
of a republic, and that they are
attempting to conduct their govern
ment on principles not unlike
close corpora ton. To pursue such

CONDITION OF ARMENIANS.
Miss Clara BartOn's Report OF Red
GROSS ExpeditiOn.

CToSb HUuhSsOsss
WASHINGTON, d. c.. Nov. 25-Graphic
and complete reports of the Armenian re-
lief expedition to Asia Minor last winter,
spring and summer, under the Red Cross,
by Clara Barton, president, and those asso-
ciated with her in the mission OF mercy,
have been completed and will soon be pub
lished. That OF Miss Barton is quite OK
haustive, covering in a general way the work
Of the expedition sent out from CONSTANT
nople.
Miss Barton states that much remains to
be done by some one. She says, in sub
stance: between the archipelago and the
Caspian, the Black and Mediterranean seas,
are living 1900, 900 Arnenians, existing under
the ordinances OF, at least, standardization,
and protesting the religion OF Jesus Christ.
According to estimates, f-om 100, 900 to 2OO,-
600 OF these are destitute OF the necessities
of life, save through the charitable benefl-
cence OF the world.
Without such outside support at least So
900 OF these people will have died Of starva-
ton. or have persisted through hardship be-
fore the first OF May, 1897. None OF us have
found any better medium for the dispense.
ton OF charitable relief than the faithful
missionaries already on the ground. and our
government officers whose present course
bespeaks their active interest.
The report Of George H. Pullman, imam
cial secretary, shows that there was ex-
pended on the relief mission total OF
S116,326, OF which ~, 526 was on account OF
administration. The cost OF this item was
betrayed from special Red Cross fund. and
not out OF the money raised by the Ameri-
can-Armenian committees

Oxygen Hospitals.

The field OF the use of oxygen IN
therapeutics is rapidly widening There
are hospitals or institutions for the
treatment Of disease by means OF this
Iife-giving element of tho air we
breathe in London, Paris. Berlin and
New York. Physicians throughout
the world are investigating the re-
markable cures effected through this
agent.
The treatment Of wounds and sores
by means of oxygen is the latest. DR..
George Stoher, an old English army
surgeon, who is at the head OF the
London hospital, while in the Russo.
Turkish and the Zulu wars, made q
special study of the effect of pure air
upon gunshot and incised wounds.
He noted that when Zulu was
wounded his comrades az soon as pos
sible carried him to the hilltop, whore
the wound was exposed to the air, and
given no further treatment than to
constantly wash it with cold water.
Under this system cures were effected
in miraculously short time.
These facts led to the experiments
in oxygen treatment in one OF the
London hospitals with astounding re-
suits, and it has been demonstrated
that certain wounds, sores and skin
troubles, often of the most revolving
and painful kind, are speedily cured
when all other remedies have failed.
The first effect OF oxygen on the wound
81 to relieve pain.
A small box ia fastened to the afai-
cted portion of the patients body,
and the oxygen mixture, which is half
pure oxygen and half pure air, is in
troduced into the box from nm India
rubber box.
1t has been also incidentally dis
covered that the oxygen treatment
tends to luxuriant growth OF hair,
and cases OF premature badness have
yielded to it in very short time. The
value OF oxygen in the treatment o.
wasting diseases has long been admit
ted, but the application of the prin'
ciple to surgery is new, and may b
clussed us one of the great discoveries
of the century, if everything he tru.
that is claimed for it.-New Yorl
