TEACHINGS
.oE EYPERIENCE

OF EXPERIENCE
The whole South has had its re-
cord of great and unusual disasters,
but more especially has this been
true OF the Yazoo-M Mississippi Delta
region, and Of the city OF Greenville,
hsfter every such experience it. has
been common to- hear prophecies OF
far reaching and long continued evil
effects. In every case such prophecies
have been discredited, and often the
effect of -calamities has been direct-
ly opposite to that which might have
beeHs expectedss~-~a.sssss =
The result Of yellow fever epidem-
les in the past has been the estab-
lishment of systems of sewerage and
the. practice of sanitary principles
which enable such cities as New Or
leans and Memphis to defy such Wis
itations.
There has been nothing really ter
rible in the mild epidemic which has
prevailed in New Orleans this sum

DRY of what yellow fever was in the
past-the old days of ignorance, when
it slew its thousands, and all business
interests were paralyzed or destroyed
by its presence In the present cpl
demic the death rate has been re-
duced to proportions absolutely tri-
vial when compared with those of
former visitations The area infected
by the disease has been closely re-
stricted, and, while OF course there
has been loss and interference with
business, it has not been such as to
materially affect the city's interests,
even temporarily.
The localizing Of the fever and
minimizing OF its death rate may be
taken as a practical victory of science
and common sense over the plague.
Its effect must be to prevent unreas-
| oning panic in case of future vista
lions, and, in time, to the abandn.ent
of the quarantine system, which as at
present followed, is such a costly and
troublesome result of the appearance
of even a single case, IN any of our
gulf ports.
Memphis now, thanks to the les
lsons taught by experience, co1sid-
ers itself secure from an epidemic of
fever. So does Greenville. Probably
both cities are safe from any such
