"oUAR4NTINING" REPUBLICANS.

1t Is reported that the Republicans of the AS
sembly district now led by Mr. Abraham Gruber
have been warned that quarantine awaits
them If they continue to let him represent them.
Ir. Grubers colleagues in the Executive Com
mfttee of the County Committee 1t is said are
not pleased to have him among them. The pres
ident of the County Committee does not APP
prove of him. The senior Senator from New
York-a resident, by the way, of the County of
Tioga-Objects to him. THE organization
wants him turned down Therefore the district
organization is to be isolated unless ii chooses
a new leader That means that all the little
postoffce and Custom House place holders are
to be punished unless they turn in, regardless
of their personal wishes, and carry the district
as Mr.. Plat, Mr. Qugg Mr.. Van Colt and Mr..
Bidwell want it to go.
Now, We should be far from saying that Mr..
Gruber ought TO be the leader of his district.
Perhaps he ought TO be quarantined, isolated,
disinfected, or what not. That is serious mat
ter, which we should not presume to decide off
hand. Possibly Mr.. George G. Austin would
better represent that district If So We suppose
the voters in it are competent to say Sc. The
leader of the district represents them and
body else, neither Mr. Plat nor Mr.. Quigg
Mr.. Van Colt nor Mr. Bidwell. 1t therefore
seems to us somewhat bold not to say impu-
dent, Tor anybody connected with 1.-The organlZa-
ton" to say that the free Republicans of a GER
tain section of the city 10 be isolated and de-
prived of their equal privileges In the party
unless they abdicate their right of choosing
their own officers and select somebody imposed
upon them. That is good Tammany doctrine.
Mr.. Croker adopted it a few months ago in deal
ing with Mr.. Sheehan. But 1T does not quite fit
the principles of the Republican party or har-
moniZe with its declared devotion to free pri-
maries and representative party government.
The individual voters of the. Republican party
are supposed to be the source of authority in it.
II it is not so the party is not a republican or
ganization, but desporism, and the district
leader, instead Of being the servant of the Re
publican voters of his neighborhood, is the SER
want Of somebody in no way responsible to
them. Perhaps that is the sort Of n party that
now exists in this State, but If so It would be
interesting TO know who made Mr.. Platt Mr..
Quigg Mr. Van Colt and Mr.. Bidwell the quar-
antine commissioners of Republicanism, and
under what article of the party constitution
they presume to isolate Republican voters who
do not act at primaries according to their in
ctr

THE PERILs OF YNFLUENz4

ance in Europe and America, eight or ten years
ago 1t has never altogether died out Year
after year it has figured in the vital statistics Of
large cities sometimes cOnspicuously sometimes
modestly. 1t is rather whimsical, too, in its
selection of a scene of operations. though not
more so, perhaps, than other contagious dis
eases In 1893 and 1899 the United States suf-
fered more severely than England. During the
last few months the situation has been reversed
The mortality from this cause In London last
month closely approached that of the famous
epidemics OF 1899 and 1898. Nottingham had no
less than eight thousand cases AT one time in
January, and in Northampton more than half
the factory hands were reported Ill. At the
capital n marked abatement has been observed
since February came in. but in the provinces
and in Scotland and Ireland the malady still

Europe also, though possibly with less severity

Colonel Watterson thinks that the present po-
litical condition in Kentucky is due to the ma
lign influence of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad. That company, he says, could watt
away Taylorism and the majority Republican
vote with breath IL it would. But much learn
ing in the school of Kentucky politics seems to
have made the gallant Colonel more or less
mad and 1t is a pity, too, for he used to see
most things within his compass In their approx
imately true relations. The trouble with the
State is too much Jack Chinnism, of which Goe-
belism was merely an oHshoot with slips Of
fraud grated on it, like the poisoned spiculaa
which some plants put forth out of a poison
stock 1t will apparently be some time before
that Commonwealth finally decides whether 1t
will have government by revolver or law Colo
mel Watterson may always be relied on to stand
for the latter except in seasons of extraordinary
pressure but it is in those times that his influ-
ence in favor of political honesty and the social
order which that alone can support is most
wanted. He should be against Goebelism and
Jack Chinnism every time.

HOUSE YIELDS TO SENATE,
AND CONGRESS ADJOURNS

Washington, June S.--COngress adj
journed sine die at s o'clock last even
ing For the senate It was day Of
waiting. The naval appropriation bill
the stumbling block to final adjourn
ment-could not be agreed to by the
conferrees OF the two houses and the
disagreement was reported TO the sem
ate early in the day. The report was
accepted. but the senate refused to re-
quest another conference, although MT.
Hale expressed the belief that an
agreement might be reached. There
was an evident disposition on the part
of the senate TO make trouble If the
conferrees should recede from the
senate amendment as to the ocean sur
veys, and it was deemed the wiser poll
icy to afford the house an opportunity
again to pass upon the question. At
o'clock, after several recesses had
been taken. 1t became known to the
senate that the house had concurred
in the senate amendment remaining in
controversy, and soon afterward the
house resolution providing for final ad-
journment was passed.
It was not until 4:4O. 20 minutes be-
fore the hour fixed for adjournment,
that the president pro tempore Of the
senate CMr. Frye) announced his sig
nature to the naval bill. With some
other measures it was hurried to the
president, who was waiting in his room
in the Capitol. and was signed by him
q few minutes later.
The concluding hour Of the session
was purely a social session. No busi-
ness beyond the adoption Of the GUS

to Finish Building

AT the meeting OF the Board Of
Trade last night a resolution was pass
ed which showed that the desire OF the
body was that some measure be taken

In introducing the matter Acting
President Samuel II. Baynard said that
some action ought TO be taken by the
residents OF the city to complete the
school. He said that he understood
there was a proposition advanced that
fifty representative business men make
themselves responsible for the amount
needed, 100000 In this way the money
could be obtained from the banks, and
tho project being backed up by the
best men, he saw no reason why a bill
could not be passed by the next Legis-
lature TO relieve the situation.
The resolution which was adopted on
the motion Of Jerome B. Bell is as fol-
lows.
Resolved, That IL IS the sense Of the

Philadelphia, June S.-The work Of
preparing the national export exposi-
tion auditorium for the Republican ma
tional convention is practically COM
pleted, and the formal transfer of the
hall to Sergeant-at-Arms Wiswell is
scheduled for next Wednesday. The
citizens committee, which has charge
of the local arrangements, wants TO
transfer the auditorium at once, but
the sergeant-at-arms does not want the
responsibility of protecting the hall
from fire and other accidents until the
national committee formally takes
possession of the building.
Members of the national committee
are expected to begin to arrive on Sat
urday. Senator Hanna is expected to
be here on that day to attend re-
ception to be given to National Com

tee, of which Joseph II. Manley, Of

London, June S.-The situation in
China, as measured by abundant an
official kilograms, continues full of in
teresting possibilities. but apparently
it has not grown worse during the last
"a hours, although the favorite ad-
iectives Of London and continental
commentators are "perilous, grave,
and dangerous"
The naval commanders In Chinese
waters have received identical instruc-
tions as to procedure, the question
OF an emergency being left TO the dis
cretion. No fear is entertained for the
safety Of the legations at Pekin. Euro
pean residents, however, are escaping
from the capital to the coast. Pekin
Is still under control, according to a
dispatch to The Morning Post dated
yesterday, but in very excited state.
A thousand foreign guards were gar
rlsoning the legation houses. six
hundred international troops are at
Tien Tsln with six guns.
The Daily Express has the following
dispatch from Shanghai dated June z:
Attempts 70 repair the damage to the
railway between Tien Tsln and PelSin
have been frustrated by the Boxers,
who, thousands strong hold the line
against the engineers gangs, attack
ing the trains arriving. The nearest
undamaged point Is 45 miles from
Tien Tsin. All the children and la
dies, except Lady Macdonald, have
left the legations. There are the
gravest fears for missionaries in out
lying parts. They number hundreds,
and the stations are Isolated. Con-
certed action is impossible.
A dispatch 20 The Daily Mail from
Shanghai dated June Z, takes a gloomy
view of things. which are pictured as
going from bad TO worse. The corr
respondent says:
"The authorities are displaying pal
pably guilty supineness In dealing
with the Boxers, and the powers arc
