The Intelligencer publishes at the head
az its editorial columns the full city
ticket. Including all the candidates for
council. The tlcket ia composed Of
splendid material All are men well
known for their high character and good
citizenship. Nearly all OF them are
properly owners and taxpayers and can
be depended upon to leglslate for the
best interests Of the public. Let the list
OF names placed before the people by the
Republicans be compared with that
which the Democrats have presented.
In1hIs connectlonit may be noted that
In publishing the full list of Democratic
candidates Saturday. the Register gave
the occupations the candidates were en-
gagged in to show that the ticket is COM
posed OF representative citizens. A feat
ure of the publication was that in all
but few Instances the name Of the par
tlcular occupation of the candidate was
given, while in each exceptional instance
the candidate was vaguely referred to as
"a leading business man"
The matter would hardly have excited
comment, but for the fact that all the
gentlemen thusreferredto happentobeth
the same line of business. Since 1t is a
Legitimate business, conducted under a
lawful license, the question naturally
arises, since mall the remainder ofthe list
the occupation was given, why did the
Register simply describe these half dozen
men as business men," not specifying
the occupation?
1t was not fair to them nor did It fur
nish the reader with the information the
article purported to give. The eandl-
dates are running on their merits as cit-
gems, and do not object to having the
public know who they are and their oe-
equations. Why should the Register?

Veterinary Magazine Denounces a The
cry from Honolulu.
Evidently referring to an inter
view published in the BULLETIN,
the American Veterinary Review
for December contains the follow
ing:
"A check is sought to be placed
upon the testing OF cattle with
tuberculin in Honolulu by a
charge that the epidemic of dysen-
terry now affecting the people Of
that city is due t. the tuberculiu
injected into the milk COWS by thu
local inspectors, aud the author of
the charges makes the ass-r
ton that its use has been
abandoned in Germany, for
the reason that it poisons the
system and renders the milk unfit
for consumption. Sur,ly the
veterinarians of that country have
had sufficient evidence of the
falsity of such assertions through
the pages of the Review aud
other sources to, effectually deny
and prove that the milk from
tested cows suffered no deteriora-
ton in its purity from such a
