THE HOT WAvR
It's Long History of Deaths and What
 They Teach For the Future.


 The recent hot wave, with its hull dreds of deaths and thousands of pros trations, has been. more disastrous i'll its effects than any epidemic that has visited the country. Cholera, yellow fever, smallpox, each has also claimed hundreds of victims, but not within the space of so few days. The direct fatalities have been enormous, but the scourge cannot be judged by these alone; the increase in the number of deaths from other causes must also be attributed to the excessive heat, fatal in it's results on a system enfeebled hy disease. In the future hundreds of those prostrated who escaped imme- diate death will succumb to eompara- lively mild attacks of disease, and thus the mortality will go on for months. In theilargei cities ambulances and pa- trol wagons were insufficient to convey the stricken to the hospitals, and these were unable to respond to all the de- mands made upon them with eevery bed occupied and extra cots in the cor riders, and physicians and nurses over taxed, sometimes falling beneath the strain.
 The strenuous life Is inevitably con quered by the strenuous thermometer. In such, crisis nothing can be done save to treat each case individually and instruct the populace how best to accommodate themselves to conditions in cities, the permitted free use of water to cool burning pavements, the occupancy of the parks during the night by those whose sleeping places were akin to ovens, the free distribu- tion of ice. all had effect in keeping the death rate from soaring still high CT, but the chief work to be done, the chief lesson learned, is that of preyen- tion-the improvement of housing the pcor, the devising of means to prevent factories. stores and streets from be- coming infernos, the modification of work hours, the abating of some of the hurry and rush of our usual temperate zone to the dolce far niente more in keeping with the occasional expeli- enes. All this until the day when man will have it in his power to modify att mospheric conditions to produce cool ing showers by explosive force or oth- el'wise. and to lower temperature in large areas by the usei,of some agent such as liquid air.-sAmer1ea Medicine.

sTo1cAL RESERVE OF INDIANS
Descendant of Joseph Brant Tells Why They Do Not Write History.


 Why They Do Not Write History.
 MT J. o. Brant-Sero, full-blooded Mohawk Indian descended from Jo- seph Brant, the Great Captain of the Six Nations, during the border war of the Revolution, has himself consider ed the project of writing q book on the New York Indians This fact ap- peared in letter he wrote early in July to Francis w. Halsey, author of "The Old New York Frontier ; Mir Brant-Sero was at the time visit ing England, having just returned from viewing the war in South Af- riea. Here is his letter.
 My Dear Mir Halsey:aF.
 I am extremely thankful to you for your letter of the 24th of May. ''The Old New York Frontier deserves to become very well circulated. The subject to which you have given SO much study is one that has been sadly neglected. Doubtless there are many reasons for this neglect, but l, for one, will venture to hope that 1t will not be passed over any longer. 1, as an Indian of the Mohawk na- tion, have been approached and re- preached over md $ over and over again about writing book on the same subject which you have dealt with. A
 I quite realize the responsibility of such an undertaking. and I fear my failure on the matter has been on the side of caution. Although I grew up in an atmosphere of boundless tales of folk lore and traditional histories of the past. there is great barrier which 1 believe exists in all Indians preventing me and others from giv- ing to the world this knowledge gained from the lips of our aged peo- pie. Libraries and reading of d Far reaching kind will alone enable us to completely throw off that stoical re- serve inherent in our nature. I should like to reach Canada dur ing the royal tour of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York If my projects prove practical I may have the honor of making your per sonal acquaintance much sooner than 1 had any thought of doing.
 Yours very truly,
 J. O. Brant-Sero.

LIKE A CHINESE JOSS.

Mr.. Babcock, Republican representative
from Wisconsin, is in Washington urging
his party leaders to remove the tariff
on steel and iron products. He says
and says truly-that they can be manu-
featured more cheaply in America than
anywhere else. The tariff duties go di-
reetly into the pockets of the monster
trust. Mr. Babcock is quoted as say
ing.

interested in this question. 1t is impossl-

Republican party in the next campaign.
Why do you permit tariff to remain on

CAN'T HAVE TWO REPUBLICAN
PARTIES.

The Philadelphia Public Ledger, a con-
sentative Republican paper, does not see
how Senator .McLaurin can maintain his
present position. We quote:
Students of politics will await with
eagerness the developments in the South
in general and in South Carolina in par
ticular following the movement which
Senator John L. McLaurin, of South Car
DINA, sought to initiate by the speech
he made, last week, at a dinner of the
Southern Manufacturers Club at Char
latte, N. C. His address was directed
chiefly against the Populistic element in
the Democratic party, but his views on
expansion and other issues constituted an
appeal against the Gold Democrats as
we'll. Senator McLaurin, who was elected
as a Democrat by most radical con-
stituency, gave signs in the recent ses-
sion of the senate that he was practically
in complete sympathy with the Mckinley
Administration. Indeed, 1T is said that
he has served notice on Senator Jones,
the Democratic leader, that he desires
to be recognized not as a Democrat, but
as one unattached to party. In his
Charlotte speech, however Senator Nc
Laurin disavowed his intention to launch
a new party in the South, and said that
he was content to advocate within Demo-
cratic lines the policies which he be-
lieved to be best for that section of the
country.
1T is difficult to perceive how Senator
McLaurin, who is practically at outs
with his party in the State and his DEM
ocratic colleagues in the Senate, can ex-
pect to change the sentiments OF the
South Carolina Democracy so as to bring
them into accord with his own. There is
no room for two Republican parties, and
certainly it would be futile to make the
attempt. The Republican party in the
South. with the negro eliminated, would
not be formidable, unless it should make
great gains from the white Democracy.
Those gains will not be realized, notwith-
standing the campaign of political educa-
ton so long as negro supremacy is an
issue. But can the Republican party af-
ford to connive at the Acknowledgement
of the blacks? Senator McLaurin is
probably as much opposed to the colored
voter as is his colleague, Ben Tillman,
but he cannot expect Northern Republic
cans to maintain, publicly at least, the
same opinion.
Mr. McLaurin's address at Charlotte
was Immediately preceded by the APP
pointment by President Mckinley of two
former Gold Democrats to important Fed
eral positions on McLaurin's recommen-
dation AS it is not to be expected that
the President has any desire to rehabili-
tate the Gold Democracy, we must as
sumo, especially in view of Senator Nc
,aurin'c attitude and exOrpSSiOnS that
he is preparing to inaugurate white
mans Republican party in the South. His
disclaimer may be sincere, but his posi-
tion is illogical, unless he is prepared
to get out of the Democratic party"

MONTGOMERY LEADS THE WAY.

citizen of Montgomery county, in
private letter, says:
"A frying pan full of dirt from almost
any part of the county will contain gold
and with the new and improved methods
of mining one of these days the gold
standard will fall through from an over
production of this metal. Here's ques-
ton, when that happens, what's going to
become of the Gold Democrat?"
Never mind what will happen to Gold
Democrats or Silver Democrats the i'm
portant thing is to get the gold in circu-
lation If the production of gold increases
steadily and suffers no diminution, the
country will have enough Of the money OF
redemption to make the money question
relatively unimportant. The Gold Demo-
a drug on the market, can become limited
greenbackers and favor a constitutional
amendment to permit the emission of
only $25 per capita. Or, when gold is
plentiful and silver scarce, they can be-
come the leaders in the movement for
free and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio of 16 to /, without waiting for
the aid or consent of any other nation.
1t is reasonably certain that most of the
advocates of the gold standard will not
be in favor of the unlimited coinage OF
gold if it becomes as plentiful as sill
yer.
The conversion of the gold standard
men by the method of our Montgomery
correspondent is "a consummation de-
volttly to be wished"

NEW USE FOR ELECTRICITY.

A professor recently discovered that
electricity is stimulant for the brain.
We do not wish to dispute the merits of
this discovery but are inclined to think
that the only natural stimulant for the
brain is sleep. If you are not able to sleep
you are certainly in a bad way. 1t is
usually caused by the stomach being out
of order, the disturbance being communi-
Gated to the brain. Keep the stomach in
good condition by the use of Hostetter' 5
