 SUFFERING.

From a charge allowing the jury to consider on the subject of damages the humiliation resulting from the loss of an eye, an appeal is taken in United States Express Co. vs. Wha1, 16S Federal Reporter, S4S.

 The Hague, Sept. 15.-An interna- tiona1 demand upon the Czar that he enforce more rigid provisions to stamp out the cholera in Russia, is proposed to day by the Nieue Courant, voicing the views of the most prominent Dutch physicians. who charge the Czar with responsibility not only for the spread of the cholera in his own country but with it's introduction into other countries.
 The Nieue Courant declares that the lack of Sanitary regulations in Russia is endangering the health of the world. The presence of cholera in Holland now is due to Russian negligence, the Nieue Courant says, and it calls for an international health congress to take action against the Car.

That Is another problem which probably

The Southern people have at last come

A Test of the Recall

The right Of recall CT municipal officers
which has been advocated strenuously nv
many students of possible reform in the
government Of cities. is surely one not 10
be exercised lightly. There should be
enough stability Of administration TO pre-
vent public fckleaess from working pub
lie injury. It is the city Of Haverhfrl
Mass. which just now furnishes an ex-
ample Of this need Of conservatism. Only
last year new charter was adopted. un-
dertaking 10 eliminate partisan politics
from city affairs Municipal officials were
70 serve two years. The new system has
been in operation little more than six
months It's administration has been
without scandal. and it is acknowledged
to have fulfilled every promise in econ
omy Of finance and in substituting eff
cheney for favoritism. partisan or per-
sonal
Now a movement for recall is Under
way. Its chief promoters are defeated
candidates for mayor at the last cleo
ton. Their desire for a change seems
natural. But they advance no reasons IN
the way Of criticising the existing order
and management Of the city's business
Yet a single days effort secured one
hundred signatures TO a petition for a
vote upon recall A systematic effort to
obtain the 1850 signatures needed seems
likely 10 succeed. In other words. 25 per
cent Of the voters may be counted as
either desiring a change or craving the
excitement Of a political campaign. Here
seems an opportunity for the conserva-
tive citizens Of Hayerhn to demonstrate
that an assumed reform in nunicipal
government may not too. lightly be made
70 work its own undoing. Otherwise the
abuse Of the power OF recall in that city
may call halt elsewhere in the estab-
hshment Of what would seem. II rightly
employed. a desirable check upon possi-
bic laxities. financial or administrative
in the conduct Of municipal business.
