MODIFYING POLITICS

Disappointed ofIice-seekers, dis
gruntled partisans are mainly re-
sponsible for the strife pervading
the political household today. At
no time in history, regardless of
the reconstruction and other pc
riods, were the political forces
under their respective banners
so distended as they confront the
masses at this time.
Any issue, its infallabilty un-
questioned, that can go to the
rescue of individual fallings, and
win the spoils Of Office, and re-
dound To certain gigantic interests
are adopted and grooved in self
constituted and official platforms.
so frequently can modern history
point to these occurrences, that
notifications made to order to
suit occasions have too many col
ors to harmonize with the princi-
pies politics we're intended to ex-
alt, and have polluted the blue of
peace and bred discord.
The New York city campaign

A PENSION FOR A vOTE-

Under the new regime the pension

that is alarming and frightful to con-

The republican party, the moth, the

Quarantine Epidemic.

Chicago Times Herald.
The worst thing about a yellow
fever epidemic, strange to say, is not
the epidemic, but the fear that the
epidemic ex .ites. This fear results
in wholesale quarantine, which is on
ly another name for wholesale paraly
sis of business. Thousands of peo-
pie are thrown out of WORK and mil
lions of dollars 90 to waste. Not in
frequently wealthy men are pauper
ized. Families are separated for
months. Promlssory notes fall due
and are not collected. Suits at law
go by default. Merchandise stales
upon the shelves. Perishable goods
rot 10, transit. Freight cars stand
filed, but motionless, upon the side
tracks. Steamers swing IDLY at their
moorings. The only signs of traffic
is furnished by the passenger trains
which bear the mails. The compan-
les are under contract with the oov-
ernment and letters and newspapers
must go through. The cars behind
the snorting engines, however, are
empty. No faces look from the win.

gather at the little stations. Void

Ebbs the crimson lIfe.tide fast,
And the dark PlutOnian shadows,
Gather on the evening blast.
Let thine frm. O queen, support me;
Hus h tIon,, fs and bow thine ear,
Harken to Vs ~ heart secrets
Thou and 'fe they : must hear hear
Though nv SCARED veteran legions
Rear their eagles high no more.
And my wrecked and scattered galleys
Strew dark Actiums fatal shore:
Though no glittering guards surround me
Prompt to do their masters will,

Die the great Triumvir still
Let not Caesars seryile mlnions
Mock the lion thus laid low;
Twas no foreman's arm that feIled him ;
Twas his own that death the blow
His who, plllowed on thy bosom,
Turned aside from glory's ray
His, who, drunk with thy caresses,
Madly threw a world away.
Should the base plebeian rabble
Dare assall my fame In Rome,
Where my noble spouse, Octayia,
Weeps within her widowed home,
Seek herl Say the gods have told me-
Affairs, augurs, circling wings
Ihat her blood with mine commingled
Yet shall mount the throne of kingsl
AS Tor thee, star-eYed Egyptianl
Glorious sorceress Of the Nilei
Light the path t, Styeian horrors
With the splendors of thy smile.
Give to Caesar crowns and riches,
Let his brow the laurel twine;

Triumphing in love like thine.

Hark the insulting foeman's cry;

IN PORT.

"Sailori" we cried, 'tcll US where lies
thy port!'
And still came back the answer, clear and
strong:
II know not where, yet I am homeward
bound.
This Is His sea; Its pulses rise and fall
AS HIS breath moves them, and It's cur
rents set
Steady and deep, to bear me where He
will"
So he sailed on; and once, where stars
were large
And luminous, through changeful purple
mists.
Rocked by slow waves that bore HIM from
our sight,
And ca I'm with peace that lay too deep
for smiles,
He drifted gently to paIm-girt shore,
And knew, at last, where Gods fsir is.

SHIP ISLAND LOCATION
of the Quarantine Station Respons,.
bic for the Present Visitation of
Yellow Fever.

! A few days ago DR.. j. w. Ham
ilton ex-Surgeon General in charg,
of the Marine Hospital service gave
to the Associated Press the following
J statement, declaring that the reno
val of the National quarantine station
from Chandelier to Ship Island is the
cause of the introduction of yellow
fever into Ocean Springs:
"In 1888 l mad passed through
congress an act appropriating $50, 900
for the building of quarantine sta.
tion on Chandeleur Island and pro-
vldiug for the removal OF the station
from Ship Island to that place. Ship
Island is five miles from shore in
Mississippi bay and Chandelier Is
land is twenty-eight miles from
shore. The change l deemed abso-
lutely necessary to prevent danger
Gus diseases from obtaining foot
bold in the communities along the
gulf. The Chandelcur Island station
was never popular with the officers.
however, because it was so far from
shore. One day tidal wave came
along and did some damage TO the
buildings. Some of the officers in
trying to make the mainland in
small boat were upset and drowned.
The lighthouse on the island was
also damaged somewhat. That was
repaired and is still there, as good as
ever. No attempts were mace to
repair the quarantine buildings, how
ever. and il was generally advertised
that / had made a mistake in causing
tbe change to be made from Snip
Island. - A bout two years ago the
station on Chaadeleur Island was en-
tirely abandoned and tie station re-
established on Ship Island, in fpG9,
defiance to the laws of congress and
in the face of determined and vlgor-
Gus protests from the health authori-
ties of the state of Mississippi,
Last year the seeds were sown and
this year we are reaping the
harvest of death. The changing back
of the quarantine station to Ship Is
laud was a crime, and the responsible
lity OF the move rests upon General
Wyman as the head of the Marine
Service. Ship Island is entirely
unsuited for quarantine station.
1t is surrounded by shoal water on
three sides. There is thirty feet of
water on one side. and practically
all the ships land on that side. There
IS comparatively free intercom-
munication between the crews Of
vessels at anchor. Not only that,
but 1t is the common practice, winked
at by the officers, for meE from tho
ships and island to visit the mainland
every night. Under this crimInally
loose and negligent discipline it is
impossible to prevent contagious or
tenacious diseases from being carried
ashore. A quarantine station on
Ship Island affords no protection
against epIdemics. 1t is great pity
that a terrible seonrge, such as is
how affecting the gulf cities, should
have been necessary to my vindica-
ton. Under the circumstances, and
in view of the fact that | vas
viciousIy attacked for having caused
the removal Of the quarantine station
from Ship Island to Chandelier
Island, | have no hesitation in calling
public attention to the actual situa-
tion and to locate the responsibility.

sAGAsTA's REPLY.

| AS expected ana edltOrlally
dwelled upon in these column,
last week, Sagasta's Cabinet ha:
sent its reply to the amicable in.
quiry of the United States con-
cerning when will the end of the
war with Cuba come. The reply
comprises some two thousand
words for cable in ciphers, and
Minister Woodford has not given
its Interpretation in full as yet to
the press, the reply remains an
official secret. However, from
what has been given out at Wash
ington and from the wires we are
informed to such extent that the
reply is as we could have an.ici-
pated. We are told that Spain
intends to extend to Cuba politl-
cal reforms thathave already been
advised by this friendly govern
ment, but this is only advanced in
the failure in telling definitely
when the war will be brought to
an end, in other words, that we
have no right in insisting on this
course, and that we are not en-
forcing our duty in the neutrality
laws. Wha. effrontery!
To advance the suggestion of
reform is baseless and hollow a
mockery as anything yet attempt
ed. In best light viewed, these
reforms are but a promise, as
thin as Spanish honor, as true as
the Spanish infamy of assassina-
ton, ,rapine and theft. Spain could
not guarantee the insurgents this
pledge were they to lay down their
arms. But viewed here as pro-
mise, this plan of autonomy will
deceive no one. We are told
"there is a proposed Insular As
sembly, to have control of tariffs
and taxation," but "its acts of
tariff and taxation must be sub
ject to the approval of the Cortes
and of the home government" so
this is but an empty form; and
that control of the army, navy,
and foreign affairs and the judi
ciary be retained. This is in part
now, and no better proof of Cuba
having to pay the bills is proved
by the cause which has excited the
island to wal, shown in these col
umns last week by a reproduction
from the columns of the Times
Democrat. This alleged autonomy
is fraudulent, mere farce, and
will not be tolerated.
1t is safe to say that from the
information at hand the reply is
unsatisfactory, lame, and if any
thing only an excuse to postpone
our determined course as regards
the matter. Minister Woodford
will no doubt be knocking sec
ond time at Senior Segasta's front
! door, and his inquiry will be more
demanding and the information
that should be forthcoming will be
given or the consequence will cause
the deceit, the cowardice of Spain
to suffer beneath the power that
breathes liberty,
