TIE YELLOW FRIGHT.

Dr. Richard u. Arnold. OF savannah
| used 20 say that he treated great many
more cases OF yellow fright in Savannah
I'm 1854 than cases OF yellow-fever he
latter he could cure, but the former were
beyond his ministrations. This Is why we
advise those IN the ncighborhood OF
Hampton. Va. 10 keep cool. and restrain
! their fears. little reelection VIII en-
able them 10 maintain their composure'
ana I'm the case Of yelow-ievor those who
are not afraid Of the disease rarely take
* except I'm a mild form.
For these reasons we hope that there
will be no foolish panic in the neighbor-
hood OF Hampton. or elsewhere In the
South.-The Atlanta Constitution
This is good advice. That there has
been a panicky condition I'm the Penlnsu-
Ia towns IS not to be denied, but those
people know yellow-fever only by reports,
which exaggerate the horrors OF the dis
ease tenfold. But, now that the public
authorities are giving proof Of organizing
capacity, and are adopting measures for
the protection of the public health, the
panic is abating. and, no doubt, many per-
sons who fed from their homes VIII soon
return to them. The disease seems 10 De
confined to a very small territory. and
most Of that territory is under the con-
troll of the Federal Government, which
has almost unlimited resources for copi's
with IL successfully.
AS for the shotgun quarantine put III
force in some localities, II was the Only
expedlent which could be adopted on the
instant to meet the emergency, and 1t
will give place 20 a more humane and sem
sible system. The people knew the au-
tborities were unprepared. and. with the
common instinct Of self-preservation. they
adopted the same rigorous measures FOR
protection which have been employed III
many communities in the far South.
But. really, the shotgun quarantine
is more terrible in name than in reahty.
A. Newport News IL has been very loose
affair: so loose, indeed, that the public IN
dienation was aroused, and. al meeting
Of the City Council, held Wednesday eve
ming. the old health officer was forced out
of place. and a new one was installed,
who proceeded TO organize and discipline
better the force OF quarantine guards.
Ii should be remembered that the APP
pearance OF yellow-fever on the Virginia
Peninsula was like a thunder-bolt from
clear sky. The authorities could not be
expected to prove equal to the emergen-
cy-they hadn't the experience or resour-
ces-yot. they and and their people seem
to have done quite as well as did residents
Of small towns in the far South when SIM
ilarly situated.
The United States Government owes 1t
TO the people of the Virginia Peninsula to
use extraordinary efforts to curb the pro-
gress of the disease, because it was
through the leches, or misror-
tune, or inexperience, Of its phySi-
clans at the National Soldiers Home that
it was allowed to gain headway.

Springfield Republican-Ind. Rep)
MIR Bryan is the most active and tire
less politician this country has ever seen.
n he should gain the presidency, the
triumph would TO a large extent be due
10 his own vigorous eXertions. He IS
perpetually on the move On Thursday
he gave life 10 great popular demon
stration at Greenvlle. Ind, where no
spoke morning. afternoon. and evening.
In the afternoon he talked over two
hours with the temperature at 80 in the
shade. The immense physical vitality
and youthful buoyancy Of this man are
factors in the struggle for the control Of
the Democratic party which need to be
reckoned with as much as his unquestion-
ed oratorical power and magnetic per-

YES. AEEP CLEAN.

The Council Committee on Health has
appealed TO us TO urge citizens to keep
their premises clean. We have done so;
we shall do so time and again. Now,
since one good turn deserves another, we
appeal to the committee to see to it
that careful attention is given 10 the
dumps" where trash IS carted and
empued. We should also like to know
now the committee expects closets TO be
kept clean on the hundreds of lots from
which city water has been turned off!
This indeed is a great question, and it
must be met sooner or later. Postpone
ment is dangerous and inaction would be
TO trife with the public health.
IT will be all in vain for the city to ex-
pect its people TO do their duty (some-
times at sacrifice Of money and con-
venience) when 1t neglects to do its own
part!

INNCIIING.

In recent issue the Boston Herald d's'
cusses IN a very calm and conservative
tone the status OF lynching," and VIC
may say. gives evidence OF an honest at
tempt to put itself in the place OF the
people Of the South. In the course of Us
article, however, II says that the point Is
| How Is the South TO be aided In getting
rid OF lynching-that IS. How Is the North
to aid the South in this matter?

South is by setting its face against ana

most instances causes the southern peo-
ple TO take the law into their own hands
In Justice to the Herald, it must be said
that it blinks no palliation of that crime

as Il and other northern papers exploit
the outbursts of those who give a puolc
historical exhibition Of horror every time
a negro hend pays the penalty Of criminal
assault, or attempted criminal assault all

The practical way for the North TO ala
the South in this matter Is 10 hoiu
public meetings to denounce the criine
which results in lynching. and thus en-
courage the better class Of negroes to de-
nounce it also.
In the same article the Herald also
touches on race antagonism at the South
and among other things says:
.'If the question is 20 be converted into
one Of race war, the colored people are
not altogether to blame for it; neither
