No Change in situation

New Orleans, Aug. 17.-With lit
tie variation in the daily record, it
naturally follows that there is no
material change in the situation and
none is looked for in the immediate
future. There is considerable salts
faction to be drawn from the small
number of deaths. because 1t shows
two things--one that the type OF the
disease is not as malignant as at
first supposed. and the other, that
the authorities are finding about
every case in the city. The general
iy accepted death rate is about IL
per cent.
1t is about a week ago that the
daily record took such a jump. one
day los cases being reported Since
then the daily record has lowered
around 60. While eight days are
usually allowed for patient to re-
cover or die, most Of the deaths
occur in the fifth and sixth days.
There were no prominent people
among the new cases, but the ma
jority of them are among people of
comfortable circumstances. Only
six of the new foci are above Canal
street.
Past Assistant Surgeon Corrupt
found another nest of infection out
side of the city yesterday. He went
to St. John Parish, fifty miles above
the city on the Mississippi river, and
unearthed thirty-three cases, twenty
one of which are entirely new focus
In and around the town of La place.
He found eight more cases on the
Diamond plantation, in st. Charles
parish. and four more on the Terre
Haute plantation.

throwing the machines together, will
then proceed to instruct the bright lit.

QUESTIONS OF POLITICS.

What sort of politics is to control
the destinies Of the Republican party
in the County nominating convention
and the election?
Incidentally where do the men
stand who have so boldly and loudly
announced that they hope for purU
politics.
The future can only he judged by
the past.
The precinct meetings held on Sat
urday passed off remarkably free from
questionable political methods and
small trickery-eXcept in one pro
Cinct.
This single exception was the pre-.
clnct in which the name of the Attnr-
pey General of the Territory leads tho
convention ticket that was jobbod
through.
Now, the Attorney General Is put
before the public as leading nom.
Der of the Civic Federation. He is on
the legislative committee that ICON.
sidered" the test of the County law.
The Anti.Saloon League, first cousin
torney General introduce the great
temperance leader OF the country at o
local meeting. So it may be presum.
ed that Attorney General Andrews has
the full approval of the gentlemen
who have much to say OF the purity
OF their politics.
Certain members Of the Sixth Pre-.
cine: who nominated the Attorney
General on the ticket to the County
convention held a meeting Saturday
evening. These certain members as
sembled previous to the hour set for
such meetings. No public notice was
given by the precinct officers Of this
meeting In this precinct. The few
necessary to put through a slate and
close the nominations were present.
When other members OF the precinct
arrived, the slate headed by the
name of the Attorney General had
been jobbed through.
Incidentally II is serious question
II the name of Lorrln Andrews ap
pears on the registered voters list Of
the Sixth Precinct of the Fourth Dis
trict.
It may be that this is the sort oil
politics and political jobbery that the
Civic Federation and the Anti-Saloor
League and any OF their associates
uphold or consent to. The public gen
orally consider them something In the
light of hypocrltes. 1t is up to one
or all of these organizations to take q
positive stand on the matter that the
self-respecting citizens OF this county
may know what sort OF individual
these self.praising combinations are.
1t may be that this jobbery Of tn,

ity Of the political methods OF tn,
