pIsCOvERl Es IN YELLOW FEVER.

Among the traditions never likely to
be proved OF, disproved, says the St.
Leuis Globe Democrat, is one that
yellow fever originated in the holds OF
slsve ships, where hundreds Of poor
weetches, stolen from their homes,
we're fastened down for weeks without
breath Of fresh air or the privilege Of
sseing the light. When the SLAYER
discharged her terrible cargo oi mis-.
ery and filth, an effort was made to
cleanse her, and in this way tropical
ports caught an infection that has
lasted ever since. In similar manner,
though with more Of certainty, cholera
istraced to unspeakably unclean pill.
grimages OF Asia. Both cholera and
yellow fever seem to have originated
intconditions so unwholesome as to be
appalling. Once generated and set in
motion, their distinctive poisons are
10 some way conveyed from person to
person, with different degrees of vir-
ulence, modified or averted by good
sanitation, and at length driven out by
q freezing temperature.
1t is but lately that the microbe Of
yellow fever has been found and iden-
titled. Its discoverer, an Italian ply.
sician named Sanarelli, now one Of the
faculty in South American college,
gives an account OF his Investigations
In the London Lancet" 1t was while
searching for the germ at Montevidio
that he caught the disease in q severe
form. On recovering he pursued his
germ studies in the yellow fever hos.
pitfalls of Rio Janerio and Flores. 1t
was at the latter place that he first
distinguished the yellow fever microbe,
but not, as he expected, in the aliment-
ary canal. He found it in the blood
and tissues. 1t is rod'shaped micro
scopic creature, with rounded extrem-
tiles, generally combining in pairs or
groups. After experimenting with it
on 1900 animals DR.. Sanarelli believes
that it affected tho most Of them,
though birds less than others. 1t was
fatal in a few days to mice and rabbits.
Tie doctor believes that it is a blood
poison and transmitted by the: air as
we'll as by water. 1t is needless to
follow his description Of the action Of
the poison on the different organs.
Frequently it affects community ir a
light form.
With the fact OF contagion estab-
!ished, the proper way to deal with the
disease is to keep it out. To this end
sanitary authorities should act with
great vigilance, and be promptly pro-
vided with all the resources they need.
One theory recently given prominence
in the dispatches Of the day is that the
disease cannot be propagated without
mean temperature Of at least 70 de.
grees sustained for nearly two weeks.
This condition has prevailed in a score
Of states this month. Fortunately, the
period of frost is not far of, and il
boards Of health are equal to their
work, and properly strengthened for
it, the few sporadic cases that may
occur will not mean an epidemic. That
every city and town should be put in
the cleanest possible condition is a
matter Of couree. There are serious
maladies other than yellow fever to be
dreaded in dirty streets and foul
alleys.

Walter FJrrester's new Sun lay
paper, The Ctpital, was launched at
Louisville this week and starts out
with cartoon of Mayor Todd waltz
ing with negro woman, and long
article beginning with the follow
ing paragraph:
mayor George D. Todd, in order
to make himself solid with the ne
groes, has gone to the home of re
spectacle negro, has put himself on
terms OF perfect social equality with
the negroes by taking dinner with
them and spending the evening as
one of their social gathering. This is
the first time thatA white man, claim
ing to be a member OF good society,
has ever avowed the doctrine of social
equality with negroes"
Mr.. Forester intimates that the
start he makes is not "patchin" to
what is yet to come.

Several of the Democratic papers
on Sunday printed a letter from
William j. Bryan, his first utterance
after three months of travel and OBJ
servatioa during the return of pros
perity. Among other things. he
says: wheat is rising because the
foreign crop is exceedingly short,
The fact that silver and wheat have
parted company will cause no dismNy
to those who understand that the law
of supply and demand regulates the
price of both. Nothing can better
disclose the weakness of the Republi-
can position than the JOY manifested
by the Republicans over events for
which their administration and their
policies are in no wise responsible.
If the Republicans desire to claim
credit for the high price Of whe t,
they must assume responsibility for
the famine in India, The general
rise in price should be followed by a
rise in wages" Bryan says th9 joy
over the increase of money from
wheat is evidence that we have too
little money, that if thu farmers are
benefited by rise in one Of their
products, how much better would it
be if the rise were universal That
the price of wheat will fall heu the
foreign demand becomes ucrmal, ant
that the present spasmodic rise viii
aid rather than injure the cause OF
bimetallism.

Judge Thos. p. Cook is well know
to be moral upright citizen, on,
whose course in life has always beer
pure and circumspsct. Loving the
right for rights sake and eschewiDg
evil because OF it's bitter fruits, we are
informed that his home people will
give bin, their eminent son aud able,
conscientious jurst, 1000 mejority'
Do as much as that for him. and there
will not be county in che District
whose true and loyal sons will falier
in the matter Of seeing well to it that
Judge Cook shall preside over the
highest court of this District. Judge
Cook employs no subterfuges, pulls
no underground wires, nor does he
resort ia the accomplishment of any
purpose whatsoever to questionable
methods. On the other hand, he has
ia his course of life builded slowly
but surely upon an imperishable
foundation, amply satisfied with the
pleasure and abiding peace derived
therefrom. The cumulative evidence
respecting the kind aud quality of
man he is, altogether in Judge Cooks
favor. We are pleased, also, after an
examination, to be warranted in the
statement that he has never even
attempted to be all things to all men.
Being a man Of conviction, when
any complex issue has to be adjusted,
the paramount idea with him is that
it must be settled right and, thus
only, be final. A lawyer who wants
to be your Circuit Judge should be a
clean man personally, politically, and |
publicly, one at all times dominated
by a singleness of purp Sc, and that
purpose adopted after an impartial
examination of every phase of a ques-
ton. If then such man is this is
requisite for this high office, let each
and every elector of this District in
vestigate for himself the fireworks of
Judge Cook before rashly supporting
any opponent Of lesser or questionable
merit. Ju lge Cook modestly invites
the commonweal to apply every test
as to the merits of his claim that, and
by which, fallible man is ever judged
.Tele gram.

FREH. $4,000 IN COLD,

from the PittsbuIg operators for a

suspended work has been called to
meet in Columbus September to act
upon the recommendation President
Ratchford aud other members of the
board say there is not the slightest
doubt that the miners will approve
the recommendation. The PROPOSE.
ton does not involve arbitration, aud
in effect provides for an immediate
settlement of the strike. President
Ratchford said it comedies the miners
material advance, does away with
all the uncertainty of arbitration, and
will bring the strike to speedy ter
mination. As soon as the mi ers rat
ily the proposition, work will be re
sumed Ia all the mines.
