ter how good the constituent elements.
NJ. Yves Guyot. noted French pub
licist. has proposed a method OF discs
tablishment which he thinks presents a
minimum OF difficulties. It is really what
we would call in this country the local
option plan. M. Guyot would not with
draw from the church public aid. but he
would have It extended thru local gov
erning bodies instead Of the national gov
eminent. The latter would provide each
local division with the amount Of money
now paid over to the church to meet it's
expenses in that particular district, but
the local governing body would be free
to decide whether to give the money: to
the church or use it In some other way.
This seems to be plan that would en-
able the century-old arrangement Of the
concordat to be essentially changed with
out jar. Wherever the people belong
in majority to the church and believe
in government aid for church work. they
could provide it; wherever they are other
wise minded, they could spend the money
to what would seem to them better
purpose.

Place for the Quarantine Hospital

The indictment Of the city health COM
missioner has reminded the public that
the municipal quarantine hospital Is I'M
der his management instead Of being a
part Of the city hospital establishment.
This seems to be rather illogical ar
rangement.
The question may we'll be asked:
Should the care and responsibilities Of
the quarantine hospital rest upon the
sanitary officials? It would seem that
they should not. It is sanitarian's duty
to tell where a danger exists and when it
has ceased to exist but it Is no more his
duty to assume the responsibility In the
medical care and nursing of smallpox
cases than of tuberculosis. typhoid fever,
diphtheria, scarlet fever, or measles. The
city has hospital and Is provided with
all the necessities for it's decent care and
management. It has Its contagious ward
for tuberculosis, scarlet fever, diphtheria,
etc It should have place for the care
Of smallpox patients also, or to put 1t in
other words, it should have the burden
of responsibility and care Of the small
pox hospital. The city hospital has its
staff Of physicians and nurses. Certain

to learn that Of the s25, 100000 annually

President Palma has ended the first
year of his administration with great
credit to himself, for he was placed in
a very trying position last year. He had
to face some discomfort, unreasonable de-
mands for pay by the Cuban veterans for
services rendered; a slender treasury to
meet the necessities Of the new govern
ment. He has shown a fine moderation
and real ability to conclliate domestic
antasonisms. Tho situation was all the
more trying because the government of
the United States, the ''Liberator,," from
whom much helpfulness in starting the
new republic on its career, was expected,
was unable to offer reduced tariff rate
on Cuban sugar, because Of the narrow
subject of protection, and when, at length,
they reluctantly consented to a small re-
duction for five years, even that arrange
ment was left unconfirmed until our con-
gress meets In extra session late in the
autumn. ..T ....'.
