THE INTELLIGENCER
WHEELING, OCTOBER 30, 1897.



Henry Georges death, coming on the
very eve of the climax Of the exciting
political contest for the control OF New
York. In which fight he was an import
ant factor, is one OF the most dramatic
Incidents occurring in recent years. II
was George that Tammany feared more
than any OF the leaders of the divided
opposition to that corrupt organization,
not that he had the best show Of them all
OF election, but because he was the can
didate who represented distinctively a
revolt of Democrats against the Tam
many organization.
: At first 1t was thought that George
would not figure largely In the campaign,
but as the contest proceeded he began to
gather strength. Besides the free silver
element OF the Democracy that was
caught by the platform endorsing Bry-
anism. there gathered to Georges sup
port the sociallstic elements attracted by
bic single tax theories and his socialIstIc
teachings Many honest worlingmen
also came to his support, having come to
regard him as champion OF the cause
Of labor. 1t was conglomerate mass Of
dozen elements combining to defeat the
regular Democracy, and the vast ma
jority drawn from among those who have
heretofore supported Tammany.
Just at the time when Tammany Hall
was in panic by the show of strength
that was being made by George, and
when on all sides he was regarded as a
factor of greater Importance than any
one had dreamed he would be, suddenly
and without warning the hand of death
reached out and struck him down.
Though man holding dangerous theo-
ries in which thousands OF his support
ers did not believe, It had seemed that he
had been chosen as the instrument that
was most largely to contribute to the
crushing out of a corrupt political or
ganization, and specuiations were to the
effect that, with him figuring as he did,
the successful ticket would either be the
Republican ticket or that headed by Seth
Low.
What the ultimate effect will be re-
mains to be seen A new alignment OF
the George supporters will follow Of
course, notwithstanding the substitu-
tion of the name of Henry George, jr., on
the ticket. Young George cannot con-
troll the following his father did. The
more intelligent classes are not likely to
throw away their votes on young and
untried man. merely for the sake of the
dead fathers memory. Which of the re-
naming three tickets will benefit by this
sudden withdrawal of 80 important
factor cannot now be told. and opinions
will differ until the result of the election
reveals the truth.

Those were vigorous words used by
Governor Atkinson, of Georgia. in his
message, concerning the mob law, It
was filed with strong attacks of the law
less spirit that fosters the lynch law OF
Georgia, the remedy for which he sug-
gests would be law laying county in
which lynching takes place liable for a
large indemnity to be paid to the faTily
of the victim of the mob, Referring to
northern lynchlngs, the governor said:
ut Is no excuse to say that the north
ern people, who have less to provoke
them to 1t, lynch. Let us not take them
as standard, but rather show a higher
type of civilization in our state, and erect
here standard to which they may as

This is sensible talk. There is no rea-
son why there should not be stringent
laws against lynchlng in all states,
whether they are comparatively free
from such lawlessnees or not.

State Superintendent Trotter has ap-
pointed Friday, November 10, as Arbor
Day to be observed by the public schools,
colleges and other educational institu-
tons, in accordance with the custom
which has prevailed for many years. The
observance of this beautiful and profit
able custom has become SO general in
recent years that 1t may be called ma
tional in It's character. Mr.. Trotters re-
commentators in his proclamation,
published elsewhere, are in accordance
with the true spirit in which Arbor Day
was instituted, and will doubtless ali be
followed out by the schools Of the state.

Remarkable Story About Ants.

A traveller returned from South AT.
rica tells OF singular combat that he
once witnessed in deep forest in the
heart OF the dark continent. Happen
ing to cast his eyes toward the ground
he noticed caterpillar crawling along
at rapid pace, followed by 100 or more
small ants. Being quicker in their
movements than the worm, the ants
would catch up with the caterpillar,
and one would mount his back aud
bite him. Pausing for an instant, the
caterpillar would turn his head and
catch the ant in such a way as to kill
1t almost instantly. This slaughter of
their fellows did not seem to have apy
effect upon the attacking hordes, the
place OF the dead warrior being pres
emily filled by another hero willing to
sacrifice his life. After slaughtering a
dozen or more Of his tormentors the
worm began to show signs of fatigue,
whereupon the ants made q combined
attack. At this the worm sought safety
BY climbing a stalk of grass, going up
tail first and defending himself with
his head and strong jaw. Seeing them.
selves outdone ON that score the ants
set to work and soon felled the stalk
with their mandibles. When this was
done, they all pounced upon the help.

What We Inherit

We are not to blame for. We can not
be held responsible for the dispositions
and tendencies which we derive from
our ancestors, nor are we responsible
for the germs OF disease which may
manifest themselves in our blood as a
heritage from former genera tions. But
we are responsible if we allow these
germs to develop into serious diseases
which will impair our usefulness and
destroy our happiness. We are respou-
sible II we transmit to our descendants is

Smoke and Electricity.

is not far distant when fog and the
smoke in atmosphere of large cities
will be dissipated by electricity. AL.

Germany for an apparatus for smoke

much too expensive for practical use.

THE SICK BED.

Some Essentials to the Comfort Of the Pa
tient.
In arranging the sick bed the two
essential things to be thought of are
the comfort of the patient, and, after
that, the convenience OF the nurse.
The bedstead should be firm, light
and simple. tit is firm 1t can not be
easily Jared; IL it is light, it can be
easily moved, and II it is simple. it can
be easily kept clean. All these require.
ments are met In the plain iron bed.
stead, which has the additional advan-
tage that its width and heigth are
adapted both to the needs Of the pa.
tient and the convenience of the nurse.
II the bedstead is light, 1t ia better to
have only the head end provided with
castors, otherwise the bed will move
too easily. BY lifting the foot end off
the floor the bed can be moved and
guided without causing the patient the
least discomfort.
The mattress should be sufficiently
soft and yielding to be perfectly com.
Portable for the patient, but not 80
yielding as to allow his body to sink
into 1t. 1t is very difficult to make a
sick person comfortable on saggy
mattress.
Feather beds should never be used in
cases Of sickness. They are uncom

Sarily warm and they are extremely in
convenient for the nurse.
To prevent the mattress from becom-
ing soiled. a good sized piece of water
proof msterial-preferably a rubber
blanket-shOuld be smoothly spread
over 1t before the under sheet is put on.
This sheet should be large enough to
be securely tucked under the edges OF
mattress, and the greatest care should
be taken to smooth out all the creases.
The pillows should be thoroughly
aired at least once day, and whenever
the pillow slip becomes soiled or damp
with perspiration, clean one should
be substituted. Changing and shaking
up the pillows when they have become
hard and unused is a small service, but
very refreshing to the patient.
The covering for the sick bed-other
than the top sheet-should vary accord.
ing to the temperature of the room, the
nature of the sickness, the feelings OF
the patient and the season of the year.
Whatever these conditions, the cover
ing should be as light as consistent
with the comfort of the patient. -
