Things past may be repeated,
but not rccnllcd.-Livy.
Milk.

Never before since the world began
have the people at large been SO thor
oughly aroused to the Importance of
sanitation. Health is wealth. Ia aalth
is progress. Health is happiness. 1t
is, after all. the most important OF all,
subjects. Every city now has its board
of health, and it is the duty of such
board to search out the sources OF
disease, and. as far as may be, remove
them. The board must keep a sharp
lookout Tor smallpox and all con
iagious diseases. 1t must insist upon
cleanliness. It must keep It's eye on
the water supply, and especially must
1t give close attention to the milk sup
Ply. AS we said yesterday. the Rich
n.ond board will not impose unreason-
able regulations upon TIE milkmcn.
We cannot believe that any producer of
milk or dealer in milk in this COM
munity would knowingly sell a poi
soned article to his customers. But
milk producers and milk dealers are
rot all scientists. They do not al.
know under what conditions milk may
become impure. There is but one way
10 avert danger. and that is for the
board of Health to make the rules and
sec that they are observed. 1t is the
part of wisdom and fairness for the
nliIkmen to cooperate with the board.
If they will do So there vii! be no
complications. They should keep well
IN mind that the health of the people
is the matter of prime consideration,
ard that the object OF the board is not
70 Cypress them. but to save the people
from disease

The fact that tho daily newspaper
is essential to tho welfare Of every
Is clearly established IN
Butte, Mon, where no papers have
been issued for moro than two months,
because of O strike in tho pressrooms
The effect on the advertiser has been
Serious. According to correspondent
of the New York Times, every business
interest has suffered, and the trade of
the merchants has declined from 20 to
30 per cent. The dealers attribute this
10 absence Of local newspapers. They
have resorted to every possible adver-
Using device. Billboards and dead
walls have been covered with huge
posters; but they fail to bring returns.
IT. tho same way the theatres, which
usually depend upon these agencies,
have noted q decrease Of so per cent.
in tho patronage, and tho real estate
market has been similarly affected.
Every branch of trade, in fact, has felt
this change, and thu lesson is convinc-
ing, not only in Butte, but in all cities
where the business people have made
themselves familiar with conditions.

A Divided House.
We have tho following letter from

We have tho following letter from
another university oracle:
Editor of Tho Times-Dispatch:
Sir,-1f house divided against itself
must fall. the University OF Virginia Is
undono on tho molasses question.
Those words, rabies" and Series (to
which might be added species"
"scabies," etc), are not analogous.
They are Latin words, whose nomina-
tive singular and nominative plural
are alike, which Is not true Of mo
lasscs." You might as we'll say that
because the plural of terminus" Is
''termini." the plural Of omnibus" must
be "omnibi.'' T.
This letter comes from one Of the
elders, but The Times-D Dispatch does
not think that "the point is we'll
taken" In one sense. to be sure, there
is no analogy between series" and
molasses." but most of our English
words form their plural by the same
general rule-by adding IS" or "es" to
the singular. BY this rule we should
add "es' to both Series" and mo
lasses" in forming the plural; but Gu
phony forbids.
