THAT OMAHA PLATFORM,

we this week publish the pre-
M amble to the Populist plat
w form as adopted at Omaha,
and under which the Populist party
waxed strong and mighty in some
parts of the country. /.
We would ask every candid Popu-
list who reads THE TINES to care
fully re-read that preamble and rea-
son with himself little and deter
mine whether he ever believed any
such slush, and if he did believe it
at one time, if he believes it now?
If those things were true then, no
reasonable man believes them true
now; if they were true then and are
not true now, what has brought
about the changer
That there has been a great
change in the last few years in the
material prosperity of this country,
no one now pretends to deny.
There has been a change in admin
istrations and a radical change In
the theory of our government. The
change took place under the new
administration and under the new
theory of government. The new
plan seems to be working like a
charm. While it continues to work
so we'll it does seem that it would
be foolish to try new scheme or 60
back to the old plan that never has
brought anything but disaster and
misfortune to the country.
Let US be candid and honest with
ourselves and not allow any politi-
cal prejudice or campaign jealousies
to blind our reason. The country
is prosperous. Labor is employed
and at advanced wages. The Omaha
platform, then, is not applicable to
the present, put is thing of the
past. Why not continue the poll
cies that have wrought the changes
for the better?

A Misleading Experiment.

To the Editor Of the Times:
4 great deal OF attention has been called (both
in England and in this country To the recent
investigations OF DR.. Grille, made On living dogs
These experiments have been performed both in
London and in Cleveland, and were in what we
medical men call surgical shock
Now, allowing that Dr. CRIES motive is exactly
what lie states-desirc to benefit mankind, by
advancing the healing art-yet | deny that he
can attain that object by such means
Many factors enter into surgical shock on hui
man beings, which cannot be reproduced in beasts.
Though not an essential part of surgical shock,
the preceding nervous dread OF a patient, By
creating abnormal conditions renders surgical
shock more uniformly fatal than it would other
wise be. Then, too, there always the de
vitalizing ravages OF disease. We doctors DO not
take human being in the fun glow of health
and perform on him of the major operations.
II is only after the decay of the natural forces,
when a disease has already made considerable in
roads, that an operation is performed on man;
whereas the beast is in perfect health. and able,
therefore to more certainly Withstand the effects
of the surgical shock, in such experiments those
TO which refer.
Beasts heal more quickly than we do, and il
is safe inference that surgical shock is easier
for them to Withstand than for us
For the foregoing reasons | state il as my
firm belief that if, through these other expe
riments, something which would counteract sur
gical shock in dogs, were discovered the same
thing would not necessarily have like effect on
Furthermore to try such thing man
would not only be as dangerous as 10 try some
supposed cure for shock on man at once; but
it would be more of a risk 10 man than if the
experiment had not been--previously made on
dogs. The reason for this is apparent. In en-
deavoring to apply to man something first used
on dogs, the symptoms of the dogs would be
relied upon. These would in many cases not be
reproduced in man, because OF the differences
in circulation; the differences in the effects of
drugs etc., between bipeds and quadrupeds.
The surgeon would without doubt be put on
false trail and sacrifice human life should he
even attempt TO make such use of knowledge

lie Roi s,Amuse.

There is something painful in noting that
the progress Of the Presidential menagerie
through Mr. McKinley's own State has been
unmarked by any wild outburst Of popular
enthusiasm. This, the inmates Of the cara
van no doubt would attribute to The omis-
sion OF tail-end speeches; but the better
opinion would seem 10 be that The populace
is disappointed because Admiral Dewey Is
not on exhibition, and perhaps for the fur
ther reason that there is a lurking suspi
Cion that Alger, Sampson, Eagan, Otis, and
Tiucarrion DENLY are concealed somewhere
in the Presidential train.
Whatever may be the cause, the fact ap-
pears 10 be that William the Smiling is
not attracting the attention he deserves,
and We are sure he will not be the last
man on the train to observe and ponder
over the change. Perhaps when he gets out
as far as the land of the Dakotas, not to
mention the ojibways," the novelty Of
Presidential and Cabinet spectacles may
warm up the crowd. This we think likely.
especially if Mr.. Mckinley carries out his
intention TO meet some of the volunteer
regiments which have returned from the
Philippines with remarkably well-defined
views on Otis and otisism. If he would
like 10 feel the popular pulse on that sub
ject, an eligible opportunity now offers.
The evening times., 1899-10-06
VIII the Admiral Control.

President Mckinley has shown a just
appreciation of Admiral Dewey's advice in
at once ordering a heavy increase OF our
naval strength in Philippine waters. He
has not, however, as yet given the country
any direct evidence that he intends TO
abate the Otis nuisance in Manila, and.
until he does so, the public feeling against
his course in protecting the discredited
governor general, and permitting the reign
of corruption and loot which has grown
up under his colonial administration, will
not abate, but will continue to grow strong
enough for him to feel its effects in the
coming elections.
Admiral Dewey and ninety-nine hun
dredths Of the American people are of one
mind on the subject of a radical change
Of policy and control That can come only
through the removal of Otis, and vigorous
suppression of the smugglers, bribers. and
rascals generally who thrive in the shadow
Of the vice regal palace in Manila.
We are afraid that, after all, Mr.. McKin-
ley VIII not act fully up to the views and
convictions of the Admiral of the Navy
The influence back of Otis, DENLY, and the
plundering combination which is amassing
wealth in the Philippines, is strong, active,
and persistent in its pressure upon he Ex-
ecutive. Every day the present conditions
can be maintained is money in the pockets
OF someone, and the beneficiaries of the
system are no doubt wise enough to ray
literally into the Hanna campaign fund

Sectional Hero Worship.

Some more or less irresponsible person,
writing to the Atlanta Journal" remarks:
wouldn't walk across the street TO see Dewey,
but l would climb Stone Mountain 10 Schley.
Now, of course. nobody is going to COM
pei this gentleman to go across the street
TO see anybody. nor would he be restrained
from ascending the Himalayas TO see
Schley, provided that that hero were on top
OF them, but when, after this flat-footed
declaration of sectional hero worship, he
goes on TO accuse others of being absurd
narrow minded, and full of prejudice, he
makes himself rather funny. According to
his idea, Schiey is to be admired by the
people of the South not so much because he
won the battle of Santiago as for the good
and sufficient reason that he was born in
Maryland.
IL is doubtful if one person out of
hundred in the whole North ever thinks Of
the fact that Dewey is a Vermont man,
unless the matter is recalled TO mind. He
belongs TO the whole country, even to the
South, if the South likes to claim him.
Moreover. the Northern partisans of Schley
have been quite as outspoken as those of
the South. New York might have been a
shade more enthusiastic over both heroes
had t9ley both been born Gothamites, but
only a shade. AS IL was, the big town
fairly exhausted herself in trying TO show
her appreciation.
1t is time that this pettiness should
cease. There is no particular reason why
certain provincial papers should rise up
and lie down, year in and year out, pos
sessed of the idea that the. whole North
is conspiring to injure the States south of
Mason and Dixon's line 1t is quite true
that certain Southern men prominent in
the late war have been slighted; but SO
have prominent Northern men; and it is
all the work of a ring of politicians who
are disliked as heartily in one section of
the country as in another. and will receive
certain proofs of that dislike in course of
time. The Northern people as whole
have not the slightest desire to hurt the
South, and it is about time that the pro-
vincial grumbIers ceased TO thresh so ear
nestly at a worn-out man of straw.

various different countries, but We have
not always done that.
For example, the johnny-cake of the
North and the hoe-cake of the South and
the good rye and graham bread which our
grandmothers used to make; have been su-
perseded by light, puffy, innutritious
compound which bears superficial resem

This is bad both for teeth and digestion.
We have borrowed the French soups. and
that is all right, but so long as We make
bread one of our chief articles of diet We
ought TO let their sort of bread alone.
As nation, we probably drink more milk
than any other nation in the world, and
that is good, when it can be had on
farm and is certainly free from germs.
But 10 drink quantities of milk from

COWS which may or may not be properly

bined the American pie-the variety which
is made by machinery-and the result is
something weird Mince pie and beer are
two things which were not made by a
merciful Providence TO go together. add
TO this conglomeration the hot tamale, the
lobster salad, the French cheese, and the
English system of roast and boiled, which
we still keep in use as our forefathers did,
and it ceases to be a matter OF surprise
that We are a nation of dyspeptics.
However, there seems 10 be no help for
il at present. A restaurant censor would
not do much good, even if he were honest,
and under the system of municipal govern
ment to be found in many cities he would
merely serve as another example of poiiti-
cal corruption on a large scale. The best
way is for every man to be his own restau-
rant censor. Most people have toierabiy
clear idea of what they ought and ought
not to eat; they know that certain things
agree with them and others make them un-
happy, and if they only choose to behave
themselves they will get along without
trouble. IL people in general cared enough
about il, however, they could make an ef-
fective protest against poor food by refus-
ing TO buy it, and patroniZing, even at the
cost of some time and trouble, only those
shops which sell good materials and those
bakeries where full value is given for every
penny

1t might be good thing IL the restau-

wider field. The amount of mismanaee-
ment in matters of diet, to which Ameri-
cans daily submit, is something to appal
the artistic Frenchman and confound
even the phlegmatic German. The fact is
that we have taken a leaf out of the
cookery book Of nearly every nation on
earth and made up a dietary of our own,
in no way adapted to the peculiar climatic
and social conditions of this people. This
is more evident in the cities and small
towns than in the country, for in most
country places, through succeeding gener-
ations, dishes suited to the conditions of
life in each particular locality have be-
come popular. Thus, the Louisianian has
learned to eat gumbo, drink strong coffee
and light wines, and concoct various cool
ing dishes; the New Englander has found
out that mixing pork and molasses with
beans not only improves the taste, in his
bracing atmosphere. but produces heat.
which is desirable; and the country in gen.
erai has discovered various good ways of
cooking corn. But in the cities we have
mixture which is far from being healthful

A FALSE CHARGE OF INSANITY.
Futile Efforts to Get Girl Into an
Asylum.

NEW YORK, Oct 6.-Passers-by in
Twenty third noticed man and a woman
dragging a girl down the steps of the First
Avenue elevated station yesterday. The
girl was shrieking: Father. father. please
don't send me to the insane asylum. l am
not insanei"
The man and the woman paid no atten-
ton TO the girls entreaties nor to the
threats of the crowd which formed in large
numbers to interfere. Finally the girl
dashed up First Avenue. She was caught
by her father at Twenty sixth Street. The
crowd showed an inclination TO take the
girls part, but the woman kept them back.
The three started for the Office of Super
intendent of Outdoor Poor Blair at the
pier AT East Twenty sixth Street. On ar
irving there the man said he is George
Naen. porter living at No. $40 East Sew
enty-sixth Street and that he is the girls
father. Her name is Amelia. The woman,
he said, is Mrs Kate Emerich, his house
keeper. He explained that the girl was in
sane and that he wanted her sent away.
Before Superintendent Blair had heard
all her fathers story the girl rushed from
the office and tried to jump into the East
River \ policeman stopped her. She
broke away and went for the river again.
This time her father caught her. When
she saw Mr.. Blair she fell on her knees and
declared that Mrs. Emerich didn't want
her at home because she was not working.
She said she would work If she could get
anything to do
Mr. Blair told Naen to take the girl 10

except to cry Shame" Amelia told DR..
Robertson that she was twenty-one years
old. She said her father never liked her,
and that Mrs. Emerich tried to please him
by abusing her.
When DIR. Robertson told taF father that
the girl was not insane, and that he weuld
have 10 care for her Mrs Emerich made
an effort to seize the girl. Albert Winter
nitz, of 3i3 East SeTenty-second Street,
contractor in engineers supplies, employed
by the charities department, held her back
and told the superintendent that he would
get the girl work in a few days if her
father vas made TO understand that he
would have to treat her kindly This the
father agreed to do. after first asking that
Mr. Winternitz be arrested for abduction,
and then he went home with Mrs. Emer-
ich. Amelia went home alone.
