SOME PLAIN TALK.

The Philadelphia Times, while independent
 ploitics. has been advocating republican
 inciplcs. But in an editorial under the
 .,,k,cu "A -plairi wo~s' tc AeKinlevs"~ he
 Philadelphia paper says:
 f'The war department does not belong to he president, nor does it belong to the sec ktary of war, to the A,gers, the Egans, the
 Arters and others who wielded it's power to he Nations shame.
 i'sThe wAr department belongs to the peo- le. It is great bulwark of safety or a fruit hl fountain of sacrifice of life and treasure ] time of war. and war is here.
 I''The country has been dishonored and
 resident Mckinley belittled by the politi- ki sAunling that has thus far hindered the
 lsmissal of Secretary Alger from the war
 epartmenr. The president must know that llger Is incompetent, that the people justly
 nTard him as responsible for the needless acritice of life and health of our soldiers in Amp and field that whether honest and
 atriotic or otherwise, he can neither re- rieye the fearful errors of the past nor void them in the future as the head of the sar department.
 "The public press, without distinction or Iarty, has demanded the removal of Secre- kry Alger by such overwhelming expressiOF,
 . to convince tho most hesitating Of the Gpreme necessity of the administration lescuing itself from Algerism. It is not . Solitical quarrel; 1t is not a factional quar- el: it is the honest. manly expression of the merican people, and the president cannot disregard 1t without grave political peril to lis adIni nistration and to himself
 Let the president rise to the clear duty Rat confronts him and recognize the war department us the one feature of his admin tration that is closest to the people. Our ,oldiers who have been in camp and field, md those who are going to fill tho shattered ranks come from the home of the people of avery section of the land, and they cannot as tuiiled with. As D rule, the entire 2OO,OOO soldiers who have volunteered for the Span lsh war have carried the same reports to their homes of the wanton sacrifice of life hy incompetency or dcbauchery in the war department, and that conviction is so deeply rooted that no president, however strong on the great questions pertaining to the war, can disregard 1t with impunity.
 1.-The war department belongs to the peo- ple the president is their mere agent in fil- ing it, and they demand in imperious tones that Q thoroughly competent, honest aud fearless man shall take the plsce of Alger Let the president take heed in time."
 SiAee the above was written Alr. Alger has rendered his resignation, and it is to be hoped that President Mckinley will be for tunate in the selection of his successorto ap' point man to this important portfolio whc -xjll act for the best interests of the mel 'ulao,ase fg hting our battles, and who vii guard as sacred trust their every right and not shape his course with view to per sonal preferment in the future.

The State Board of Health.

Poplaryille Free Press.
We agree with the Hattiesburg
Progress when it says: Give the State
board of health $50, 900 aud let them
go" The g%randest farce that was
eyer enacted was when this body was
created. IT anybody will show us
where the State board Of health has
ever done the people $4,000 worth of
good then we will say, elect two or
three more boards. The only thing
they are doing and have ever done is
riding around on the railroad trains
and drawing their pay. The so-callcd
experts who compose that grand(?)
body have proven their inability to
diagnose a case Of yellow fever until
the case Is fully developed, and that
the local physicians can easily do.
During the epidemic last year the 10.
cal physicians all over the State show
ed great courage and skill in the
treatment Of the disease while the
State board OF health had their little
experts(?) running here and there to
see how the thing was getting alonv
and sending in their little reports,
which were published in the morning
papers, while the big dogs kept close
watch over that $4,000 appropriation
to see that none OF. it got away. We
say, do away with these h%igh-salaricd
experts, and let the local physicians
do the work according to law and
their ability and We will be ten times
better off. IL the law Is not sufficient
then make new laws. As long as we
have the appropriations and the ex.
perts(?), just so long will we have
yellow fever. Let the local authori.
ties have the matter in hand and let
1t be managed by Il county board of
health.
AS for IL part we had rather have
the yellow fever than the State
board of health and the s~enseless
guarantees. The best way to com.
mence stamping out yellow fever is to
stamp out the State board of health
first.
