TYPHOID FEVER AND FILTRATJoy


Few cities in the United States have had u
higher death rate from typhoid fever than
Washington. 1t was long suspected, moreover
that the trouble was due largely to the water
supply, which IS derived from the Potomac
for good deal Of sewage is DISCHARGED into
that stream at points above the national caii-
tai. 1t was natural, therefore to assume that
relief would be secured If the CITY were TO
install n suitable filtration plant. The execu-
ton of that idea was begun In 1903 and COM
pleted in October. 1905. The improvement cost
100000 and sanitary experts who examined
the work expressed the utmost satisfaction. 1t
was discovered short time ago. however. that
| the deaths from typhoid for a portion of 1905
were as numerous as those reported In the cor
responding months last year, and fears were
expressed that the filters were imperfect or use
less as safeguard against typhoid
Recognizing the seriousness of these misclv-
lngs, Engineering News" instituted an fnvesti-
CATION into the matter, securing for that DUR
pose the services Of Mr.. Theodore Horton. con-
suting engineer Of the New York State De-
partment Of Health. His report emphasizes -
fact which was known before, but which seems
to be peculiarly applicable TO the city of Wash
inGton. Drinking water is not the only means
by which typhoid germs are disseminated in
a community. The opinion is expressed by Mr.
Horton that contaminated oysters have COLI
tributed share 10 the infection in Washing
ton. though he puts the case in a guarded way.
Again. the local authorities in Washington ex-
ercse rather close watch on the milk suppIy
but Mr.. Horton thinks that it has not been
quite as strict as 1t should have been. Some
Of the water consumed in the city too, is
taken from shallow wells, and the commits
sioner Of Engineering News" sees how these
might easily have been rendered sources of
danger Finally. he points out that all South
crn cities fare rather worse in the matter OF
typhoid than DO Northern cities, and ha Is sat

him, thus reducing his support to a minority.
Whether il would be possible TO force ehese
four. or some of them back into line by means
OF caucus is not clear Despite the fact that
Mr. Dryden was nominally approved at the
primaries as a candidate for reelection, there
are many who hold that the defeat of his sup
porters in his own county has absolved legis-
lators of ell obligation to vote for him, and on
that ground it might be that If a caucus were
called some other candidate would be chosen.
The Republicans of New Jersey can and
should elect Senator from their own party. 1t
IS highly desirable that they should do so
promptly, without any protracted deadlock and
without any deal with any Democratic faction.
New-York tribune., 1906-11-13
TARIFFS 1T HOME AND ABROAD.

Mr. J. J. Hills appeal for closer commercial
relations with Canada Will doubtless strike a
sympathetic chord in American hearts This
country has the kindest of feelings toward its
northern neighbOr. and wishes il we'll. 1t
would be glad to any practicable system
adopted which would conduce to Canada s
greater prosperity, although it understands the
Dominion already 10 be enjoying prosperity In
a higher degree than most OF the nations of the
earth. II has not only a neighborly desire for
Canadian prosperity. but also the selfish real
ization that Canadian prosperity is advanta-
geous, in dollars and cents, TO the United States.
Moreover. ii is evident that ii would be for the
good Of this country 10 get some important
Canadian products free Of duty.
But Mr. Hill seems strangely to ignore a
fundamental fact when he says that "the con
'rusiv" argument for reciprocity with Canada
'.tiW.l has been, ana must be the experience
-of the several American states" (meaning the
New-York tribune., 1906-11-13

members of this Union). 1t may be quite true
that but for the constitutional prohibition each
state would have tariff against every other
state or would have had Ii until the ruinous
effects OF such q policy had become apparent,
and that the industrial and commercial pros
perity of this nation is due largely to the sys-
TEN of free trade among its component mem
bers. But it will not do to overlook the fact
that the Constitution also provides that tariffs
on foreign goods shall be exactly equal in all
the states That is to say, there must be free
trade at home and equal protection for all the
states abroad. Louisiana and New York must
have free trade between them, while foreign
goods imported at New Orleans and New York
must nav the same duties. The free trade
among the states is substantially conditioned
upon their equality of tariffs toward all other
countries But If free trade were established
between New York and Quebec that funda-
mental condition would be lacking, for the
tariff between Quebec and Europe would be
very different from that between New York and
Europe.
In brief, no conclusive argument for foreign
relations can be based upon domestic expert
ences The members of a family. brothers and
sisters have radically different relations among
themselves from any which they have with even
their nearest neighbors. Communities under
the same sovereign government similarly have
among themselves different relations from those
between communities under separate sovereign
ties. The only conclusive argument concerning
Canada which might be drawn from the ex-
perience of the United States is that it would
be profitable for the Dominion to be annexed
to the United States. But that is something
which neither of the two countries seems to de-
sire, and 1t is something without which they
both seem to be getting along very well.
