A PROMPT REPLY.

1t will be remembered that some.
time past the newly appointed
negro postmaster at Hogansvllle. Ga,
was shot. Much excitement prevailed
ut the time. and all good citizens
deplored the circumstances. but !;
Northern man wrnte the Atlanta
Constitution and asked what that
paper thought of il, And this was
It's prompt reply:
1--WE think it is just such a dose as
the republican party is always pre-
pared to deal out to the people of
this section when it has the uppor-
tunIty. There We're Southern men
during the last campaign, who held
their noses when silver was mention
ed, and yet they had the stomach to
march to the polls aud vote for negro
postmasters IN the South, and Tor
every other enormity that the repuh-
llcan party is guilty of or capable of.
"Wilen the Mckinley crowd were
hunting for delegates IN the South,
they found the Platt Quay combina,
ton engaged ID the same delectabie
business. Consequently they had to
hustle and make all sorts of bargains.
The negro delegates were out for
what they could get. and in the scram
bic for them the Mckinley crowd sold
out the H%ogansvilie postoffiee. 1t
was sold to the negroes and the ne
groes got it.
"The bolters in the South and else
where declare that they are RESPONSE
BILE for McKin!ey's election. 1t fol-
lows. then. that they are Responsible
for the Hngansville affair, and they
ought to be very proud of it.
There are ONE other things to be
said about the Hegansville appoint
ment. We think it is an outrage for
Mf. Mckinley or any other president,
republican or democrat, to appoint a
postmaster in any community over
the unanimous protest of those who
maintain the office and for whose
benefit it was established. In its es-
senee, the appointment of the negro
Loft.n is a denial to the citizens of
Hogansville of the right of self gov
renmeEt.
"Mi. Mckinley and those about
him understand this fact very well,
and for that reason they would not
dare to appoint as postmaster in a
Northern or Western town any man,
white or black. over the unanimous
protest of property II and bust
ness men. 1t is this fact that gives a
keen edge to the outrage.
All sensible negroes understand
we'll enough that when IA negro is
appointed to II p~ostoifice in this sec
ton it is not the result of republican
love for the negro, but the outcome
of bargain and sale.
IF there is a desire to put human
nature to strain in this negro-ap-
pointing business, let Mr.. Mckinley
give a few of the Ohio p~ostof1ices to
the colored brethren who worked
and voted for him.

MORTALITY FROM TYPHOID FE-
YER.
(From Times Democrat.)

Iellow fever creates panics. w.
phold fever is taken by residents of a
city as a matter of course. Typhoid
fever doesn't breed shotgun quaran :
tine, but its mortality is much greater.
st. Louis wants to get it's water sup
ply filtered. and, in working toward
that end, Charles w. Francis, chief
sanitary officer of the Board of Health
Of that city, has published a statement
which should teach IA much needed
lesson to the panic stricken South.
Here it IS
Typhoid fever is more deadly than
yellow fever # the doctors report all
the their cases. Yellow fever visits
the South years apart, and the very
name inspires every D with terror.
Typhoid fever is with us every wear
and all the year round. aud familiarity
has shnrn it of terror.
But statistics show the death rate
from typhoid fever, in proportion to
the number of cases, is much greater
than from yellow fever. In the Jack
snnville FLA epidemic of yellow fe-
Yer several years ago the mortality
was only about 10 per cent of the
whole number of cases. In the last
epidemic at Memphis in 1879 the NOR
tally was only about "a per cent. and
the year before in the big epidemic
throughout the South the mortality
was only about So per cent.
"This year in st. Louis the mortal
ty from typhoid fever has been over
90 per cent. Silce JAM there have
been 10 cases and III deaths.
ain 1896 there were 2S1 cases and
1T deaths, a mortality of 10 per cent.
Typhoid fever is a germ disease,
and = potent cause of it is the pollution
OF drinking water with sewage. This
was demonstrated in 1892, when there
was an epidemic Of typhoid fever with
1921 cases and 514 deaths. At that
time the waterwoIks pumping station
was located at Bissell's Point. Some
distance above that Harlem Creek
emptied into the river. A large guam
tlty OF sewage from a number of dali
ries WAS discharged into Harlem
Creek, which also emptied into the
river at the mouth of Harlem Creek.
| came to the conclusion that this
sewage going into the water mains
was responsible for the epidemic. AS
Harlem Creek was II mile above the
watetworks, the doctors laughed at
my theory. but | took a lot of them up
there and they began think there was
something it. Experiments were made
and DR.. Ravoid finally succeeded in
finding IA typhoid bacillus in the city
water taken from Il liydrant. There
upon IL dam was built on Harlem
Creek at about Carrie and Bulwer
streets, and "a pumping stat on erected
The sewage IN tile creek was then
pumped through an iron pipe to a
below Bissell's Point, which
discharged in the river. As soon as
the sewage ceased to discharge above
the waterworks tie epidemic declined,
and the next year there was only 68l
cases, There has been no epidemic
since and typhoid has been steadily
on the decline
