Is It Jugglery !?

II there is any move on to 1egislate
Congressman Cooper out of Congress,
it seems that there will be merry
time for the movers before the purpose
is accomplished. In letter written to
the Sentinel, friend of Congressman
Cooper has the following to say anent
the subject:
''The plan which has evidently been
suggested at Madison to substitute
Waukesha county for Racine county in
the First Congressional district and
annex Racine county to Milwaukee
county, in,order to give the latter two
Congressional districts, is SO novel
and extraordinary that suspicion is
aroused in the minds of those familiar
with political jugg1ery. Radical and
apparently unnecessary changes are
seldom made in politics unless some
personal ambition is to be served. The
real purpose of the above plan must be
more or less a matter of conjecture to
the casual observer, but there is abso-
lutte certainty that the success of the
plan will effectually dispose of the fu-
ture political career of Hon. II. A.
Cooper, of Racine, which, on general
principles, is most regrettable. For
years the old First district has stood
as one community in elect1ng Mr..
Cooper to Congress-each time by an
increased vote-doing him great honor
and receiving back from him, not only
careful and Jealous attention to the in
terest of his constituents, but the rep
utation of developing one of the lead
ing and most prominent young men of
the times. Mr.. Cooper's fame is now
national, and he is an honor and cred
it, not only to the loyal old First dis
trict, but to the entire State of Wis
consin. And yet, this honorable ca
reer is to be ruth1essly annihi1ated,
merely to gratify-we will suppose for
the sake of xemp1ifcation-th po1iti-
cal ambition of one man!
'The proposed plan looks to me like
an absurd and vicious one. Racine
county has too much population to add
to Milwaukee county. In such an
event, each of the proposed Milwaukee
districts would be over the required
population and with both counties
growing, it would only be year or
two before both would be out of reason
able proportion.
''Racine is too big a city to tack onto
Milwaukee. It's interests are entirely
different and removed from ours, and
its position is more that Of a rival than
a friend.
"Waukesha county, on the contrary,
fills all the requirements of part of
the Milwaukee division. It belongs
with this county politically, conner
cially, socially and geographically.
With Waukesha included i'll the Mil
waukee districts it is possible to make
an ideal apportionment of $4,000 peo-
pie in each district and safe Repnb-
lican plurality in both.
E'Ha1 Cooper has friends who will
not stand calmly by and see him
murdered" without some sort of an
expIanation-or a fight, if necessary"

TELLS OF MANILA.
William r. Hull, Of This CITY, is Not
Pleased with the New Territory

A letter has been received in this
city from William r. Hull, of Kenosha,
who is serving with the forty seventh
infantry in the Philippines. Private
Hull writes that all the Kenosha boys
around Manila are well and are get
ting along nicely in the army.
Several of them are expecting promo
ton within few weeks.
Hull is not in love with Manila and
SAYS that he would never pick out the
first city of the Philippines as place
to make his home. Private Hull states
that the Kenosha soldiers were great
ly delighted few months ago to see
Mrs. o. S. Newell, of this city, at
Manila. Mrs. Newell had been in
Manila and as the forty-sev enth was
passing to embark on the transport
Hancock the Kenosha boys recog nizcd
her among the crowd watching the
departure of the troops and, although
| it was a base violation of discipline
the Kenosha boys were so effected by
the sight of a face from home that al
of them raised their hats to the Keno
sha party.
The Kenosha men have not as ye
treceived any notice as to when they
will be returned to Kenosha, but it i.
probable that they will be mustered
out some time this year.

For the past eight or nine years the
United States has enjoyed the rather
unusual experience of the presence IN
political life, in a more Or less public
way, of two ex-Presidents. Since the
retirement of Grover Cleveland, he and
ex-President Harrison have taken a
part in national counse1s that has
made them conspicuous in the public
eye. The passing of ex-President
Harrison at this time is matter of
sincere regret all over the country.
His public career, though not very
brilliant or marked by any striking
events or legislation, has been such as
to mark him man of great strength
of mind and character. His admins
tration as President of the United
States is commonly known as "safe
and conservative" which it was, but
with the evidence of natural ability
and craftsmanship that would have
cen able to meet serious crises had
they arisen.
In his civil life ex-President Har-
rison's record was not unlike that OF
his military life, full of evidences OF
fidelity, courage and ability, but lack
ing in great opportunity. The course
of the ex-President since his retire
ment into private life has been an.
other evidence of his courage and
fidelity to conviction. His death is a
| loss to the nation.

The City Council, in special session last night, decided that the market shall re- main in the new city hall building as originally planned. notwithstanding the complaint of the Inarketmen that the quarters will be. cramped.
 As soon as the board was called to or> der the report of the finance and market committees to which the question was referred, was presented as foliows: '"The joint committee begs to report that in the opinion of the committee 1t Is to the best interest of the public and of the city that a market be maintained in the city hall.''

sEpBues SPREAD DISEASE.
pr. Hodgson Reports Results of In.
 vestigation In the Tropics.

Washington Dispatch to the Inter Ocean.
 Acting Assistant Surgeon s. Hodgson of the Marine Hospital Service believes he has discovered valuable remedy to be used in yellow fever cases. Dr. Hodgsop has been stationed at Progreso, Mexico for two years, and he has made a thor ough examination of yellow fever cases there. In a letter to Surgeon General Wy man of the Marine Hospital Service he calls attention to the fact that while val uable work has been done in China In demonstrating beyond question that yell low fever can be and is transmitted by the mosquito. another insert almost us numerous. and certainly as pestiferous, which may be quite as active an agency in spreading this disease as the mosquito has been entirely overlooked, namely, the cimex. or as it Is popularly known, the bedbug.
 Tn the tropics" Dr. Hodgson says, ''the bedbug is all-prevailing, and his stealthy movements are more liable to ac- complish the desired end than the buzzing mosquito.
 Among the remedies, used In Central and South America as an antidote for the stings of insects and bites of snakes the zed or bean of cedron has been found to be specific. A tincture Is made from the grated or mashed zed, which is also made into fluid extract I made tinc- ture from the bean and used 1t as an antidote for the stings of insects and the bite of snake, and found that the ac- ton was almost immediate and the relief complete The antitoxic properties of this remedy were so great that thought 1t might be of some benefit in yellow fever, and had opportunities to try it in several cases of that disease, and from the re- suits concluded 1t is as specific for yell low fever as quinine is for malaria"
 Dr. Hodgson says the eases he treated were in Costa Rica, when he was gov- ernment physician at Jiminez, and while he kept no notes of the cases. every one treated with the tincture of cedron re- covered.
 It relieved the headache, stopped the nausea, and in the cases where it was in- jected early in the disease there was very little congestion. He used the tincture by hypodermic injections of about twenty minims three times a day.
