A TYPHOID FEWER REMEDY.

1t is probable that the announcement
that a celebrated physician of Phladel-
phia has discovered a cure for typhoid
fever causes rejoicing in that city and
Newark, n. ]. These cities have an i'm
mense amount Of the fever, and they have
4 all the year around. The cause is the
filthy water with which their people are
supplied. They will never get rid Of the
fever until they get a supply of pure
water Why they haven't abandoned the
Schuylkill water in Philadelphia and the
Passaic river water In Newark
long before this is one of the
things which is past finding out
In Philadelphia there is talk of hav-
ing the members OF the City Council in
dicted for refusing to do anything for the
publication Of the water.
The alleged typhoid fever cure is the dis
covery Of Or. John Aulde. 1t consists Of
a combination Of arsenic and nuclein. both
having germicidal properties. The discov-
cry consists In combining the two drugs.

more Of quantity of justice than quality.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Discussing that anti-British meeting of
COMMUNICATIONS in Chicago the other
day, the Louisville Courler-Journal Dem)
says: why would an alliance with Eng
land be any more Injurious to a German
American than to any other true Ameri-
can? If 1t is to the interest of America
to form an alliance with country that is
a rival of Germany, then it is to be ex-
pected that all Americans, including Ger
manAmericans. will place the interest of
America before that of all other coun-
tries, including Germany. If we should
enter into an alliance with Great Brit
ain, it will not be because British-Amer-
leans favor such an alliance. and If we
do not enter into 1t it will not be because
German-Amercans oppose il. Discussion
of the alliance itself is not worth while
At present there is neither probability
nor need of such thing. But If the time
ever comes for seriously considering II,
1t will be considered simply from the
standpoint of Americans, unprefixed and
unhyphened

The Red Cross is now establishing in

the active operations of the American
army and the approach of the rainy sea
son, the society is increasing its hospital
forces. For the prosecution of the work
in both Cuba and the Philippines the Red
Cross is in need of additional funds. The
generous people of this country should
contribute literally and promptly to the
worthy cause. Contributions should be
sent to the American National Red Cross.
