A NEW CATTLE DISEASE.

In a number OF places in the State
of California. the cattle are dying FROM
disease which the veterinary doctors
term anthrax In the northern part
OF the State there was a quarantine
established against the cattle OF the
southern part OF the State, where the
disease prevailed. but 1t was removed
owing to the lack OF food In the lower
counties. The disease is spreading.
The only effective method, so far dis
covered to check its rapid movement
is to kIl each animal afflicted with
the disease and burn the carcass.
This disease, also Is fatal to man.
The attention OF the Board OF Health
has been called to this disease. There
is a constant importation OF cattle
from the Coast, and in spite of the
closest vigilance, there is danger that
infected stock may be landed here.
The condition of stock in some Of
our Islands Is deplorable, and may in
time cause meat famine. The price
Of beef has already risen, and should
1t reach higher figures, it will make it
impossible for the laborers on the
plantations to use meat, at the present
rate of wages.
The disease known as the 'fluke"
is uniting the cattle and sheep for
market. II continues to spread, and
sadly discourages the ranchmen.
Should It not be checked, We shall be-
come importers of meat from Austria
liza and California, in spite of our
great cattle and sheep ranges.
While the advanced price of meat
may not disturb the wealthy people, II
would deprive the poor people of one
of the necessaries of life, and reduce
the diet OF those who live on fixed
salaries

DEFACING THE STREETS.

We republish, in smother column, the
law forbidding the aiiixing Of posters
and advertisements on buildings,
bridges, fences and trees without per
mission OF the owners; also the law
Regulating the limits OF encroach-
ments on the streets. in fixing awnings
shades. or balconies. The placing of
signs IL also carefully regulated by
law.
The attention of this paper his been
called to the many violations Of these
laws. On inspection and inquiry, II
appears that these laws. although
dead letters, are not enforced as they
should be.
There is a disposition in all places
to encroach on public property, to OBJ
struct the streets and roads, in the in
terests of trade. Unless public SEN
timent calls for strict enforcement
OF the laws, in this regard, unlawful
Occupation becomes finally SO general,
and so many people are guilty OF vio-
lating them. II is impossible to enforce
the laws, without causing much incon-
venience, and loss OF money. II is
important. therefore. TO promptly en-
force these laws, before they become
obsolete.
A remarkable instance OF the conse-
quences OF neglecting to enforce these
rules, which forbid Entertainments on
public property, Is seen in the city OF
New York. The people have paid full
value for all land taken for streets.
The city, representing the public, holds
as a public trust, the soil from house
line to house line. Many years ago
the Common Council Of the city grant.
ed licenses, without legal authority to
do so, to the owners OF buildings ia
construct vaults for storage and other
purposes underground and far into the
streets. The courts have declared that
this occupation is illegal; that no in
dividual has the right to occupy fol-
private use, any land belonging to the
city, in trust for the people, The land
so occupied all over the city Is valued
at millions of dollars. But as the
owner OF nearly every building in the
city has violated the law, any attempt
now made to recover the city's rights
is defeated in various ways. The
property owners stand together In
preventing any action being taker
against themselves.
This case was cited, some years ago
by a noted writer on self government
in order to show that laws were Of nj
value unless public sentiment sustain
ed and demanded their enforcement.
For the same reason, II this com
munity permits the laws which forbi,
encroachments on the public streets I,
lapse, public sentiment will, In time
declare against any enforcement.

THE APPEARANCE Of DISEASE.

Why has typhoid fever developed in
the military camps near Diamond
Head? This fever is no longer an I'M
known enemy. Modern medical science
knows its hiding places, its habits, its
movements. In every war before the
last Franco-German war, disease had
killed more men than guns. The Ger
mans changed conditions during that
war, and disease ceased to be terrible.
They studied disease and the methods
OF fighting It, just as they studied the
map of France and the French army.
Here are some three thousand men
"a mere bagatelle OF an army-camped
in place where, SO far hs human in
sight goes, fair conditions for preserv-
ing health prevail. No enemy is near
to dsarrange any plans that may be
made TO secure the very best conditions
of living. Why then has typhoid fever
appeared? Some one is responsible for
It's appearance. The fever is no long
er an open enemy. II is no longer
hidden foe.
When the cholera appeared here In
1895, the Board OF Health, through its
prompt generalship, its active scouting
by day and night, located the enemy
and fiercely stamped 1t out. Until the
facts are ascertained 1t will be idle to
charge any one man with the respon-
sibility for the appearance of typhoid
fever. Naturally, the medical stan is
primarily responsible. But, as a mat
ter Of fact, 1t may not be,
This important fact now appears in
recent literature OF the medical incl
dents OF the war: The one exception
to the unfortunate condition of the
many camps established during the
last six months, is that OF the camp
at jacksonville. Florida. Its singular
healthfulness, its surprising freedom
from any kind OF disease, sis due"

COL. PARKER'S VIEWS.

In the interview with Col. Parker
published in the Chicago Times

that the colonel entirely failed to give

pressed while here much veneratiOn

Those who in loyalty to their an

Il Is well known to those who are
familiar with the social life OF the
Southern States. that some OF the most
accomplished, brilliant, and beautiful
women have negro blood In their
veins. but are utterly and permanent
ly barred out from the social life of
the whites. Some OF these women
have been educated in Paris, and in
manners. musical talent, wit, and all
social gifts are the peers OF their
white sisters. But the negro faint.
almost impercl ptible In many cases,
condemns them TO social exile, and. too
often. to immoral lives. In this whole
sale exclusion OF a class of refined and
educated women, simply because of
| the single drop of negro blood, one
may see an illustration OF what We so
often consider in this paper, the force
OF national habits and instincts.
While there Is, we believe, no COM
munity on the Mainland that would
tolerate the idea of receiving or
honoring the most beautiful, refined
and educated quadroon, we see thou
sands OF people admiring, carressing
and even making themselves quite
silly over girl with Hawaiian blood

SO far as the natives are concerned.
| Il Is fortunate that 1t is so. II puts
forever at rest the doubts which the
friends of the natives, those people
who have always given the natives
bad advice-have constantly stirred
up regarding the attitude Of the Amer
leans towards them. 1t shows that
the Americans have no prejudices
against the natives, by reason of color.
The people of Topeka, a representa-
tive city in the crankiest of all States,
have our thanks for giving us this
ILLUSTRATION of condition of things
which could not be proved by mere
talk and assertion. The most Of us
were tempted to smile at the willing
ness of Miss Rose to exhibit herself
at show" in Topeka. She has,
however, done excellent work, and
settled II that the native woman will
not suffer from the blind. and sense
less prejudice against color.
