Abating a Nuisance.
years ago

Gratifying progress regarding the abate-
ment of the nuisance of odors from New
Jersey factories which invade the River
side Drive district is reported by Health
Commissioner Emerson. Since the ming
of suits by the Attorney General to compel
the offending firms to change their proc
esses so the stenches should not issue TO
pollute the atmosphere, three have re-
formed. and it will be only short time,
DR.. Emerson believes, before the ether
two cease to offend.
Only the residents Of the upper West
Side who have suffered under the horrible
conditions thus being abolished can realize
how much comfort this announcement
holds out. If, as the Health Commissioner
believes the two remaining factories will
remedy conditions, it will not be necessary
to bring the suits to trial. That will save
much time and trouble. But the wisdom
of bringing these suits has been demon
strated by the effect already produced by
the mere filing of the papers. 1t was a
good bit of work for the city.

Fourth of July Tetanus.

A timely warning against the CHIEF
peril of the Fourth of July has been given
cut by the United States Public Health
Service The terrible mortality that used
to accompany the annual celebration was
principally attributable to tetanus, and 1t
was partly for this reason that it TOOK
the public so long to realize the danger.
The lists of killed and injured usually
published on the day following gave but
an imperfect idea Of the damage done on
these occasions. The killing was at
long range, and in many instances tetanus
developed many days later from injuries
which at the time they were received
seemed to be quite insignificant.
All of the typical Fourth of July in
iuries should be regarded as serious. This
truth is more generally recognized now
than in the past, and it is doubtless be-
cause it is more generally recognized that
the mortality has been so much reduced.
There was but one death from tetanus
as a result of last wears celebration; ten
years before there were more than hun
dred deaths from the same cause. 1t can
not be supposed that the improvement IS
due entirely to greater care in the treat
ment of wounds, still less to the general
use of the prophylactic serum, though
this has doubtless helped The main rea-
son is that the barbarous way of cele
trating is less popular than it used to Da,
and that in many states and cities the
use of explosives has been restricted or
forbidden altogether.
The best way to put stop TO the sut-
fering invariably associated in the past
with the Fourth of July is to put stop
TO the original cause. But where this has
not been done it should be remembered
that no injury, whether caused by blank
cartridges or frecrackers, should on any
account be neglected. Tetanus is one Of
the most terrible of all diseases, and one
Cf the most fatal. 1t is disease hardly
amenable to treatment after the symp-
toms have developed but one that may
be aborted if the wound is at once thor
cughy and sklfully treated 1t is better
not to trust to home treatment. Parents
who are thoughtless enough to expose
their children to danger should therefore
send for a doctor to attend to their
wounds-and send for him promptly.

Whale Skins for Shoes.


For weeks papers throughout the eoun-
try have been printing information that ten
tons Of skins OF the beuga. or white whale
have been received at Seattle from the Ber-
ing Sea, and have been shipped east to be
made into leather for white shoes for women.
Very like a whale. The stuff reads we'll
White whales for white shoes. Doubtless
the report got credence owing TO the ex-
tremely high prices asked for white shoes for
women, which may have indicated to super
fetal minds that white feathers of all kinds
were becoming rare.
he white shoes that have been sold 20
women have nothing fshy about them. The
white sole is made from the hide Of the
humble but necessary COW. The uppers OF
the shoes are made from kid or calf leath-
ers, with sheepskin used where cheaper
prices were imperative.
Years ago laces made from tanned porpoise
skins were so strong and supple that thei.
popularity begat limitations that could be
sold cheaply. And before long the ever ac-
commodsting calfskin furnished enough por-
poise lsces to meet the great demand for
them.
Shark skin in the leather industries is
known as shagreen. and is used for specially
purposes. Wslrus hide. when tanned, is s.
thick and coarse that it is used for making
polishing wheels Seal skins that are no.

leather. But FISH skins. as a whole. cut very
little figure in the shoe and leather world.

Hope.

The decision of Carranza 10 release
American soldiers will awaken much hope
that an utterly futile and repugnant con
fict may not occur Let US trust that
these hopes will not be vain.
There is only one real peril in the whole
Mexican mess. When Mr.. Wilson sent
troops 70 Vera Cruz he made war upon
Mexico When he withdrew his troops
under the cover of the European conflict
he left the impression in Mexico that the
United States was afraid Of Mexican
armies. During all the months when,
after precipitate and violent action, Mr..
Wilson compelled our troops along the Dor
der TO endure rife fire without response,
he further contributed 10 the Mexican con-
viction that Americans were towards.
We shall now have war with Mexico If
this belief continues TO dominate Mexican
policy and to delude Mexican leaders. If
all Mexican policy is 10 be founded upon
the idea, derived from Mr.. Wilson's various
actions, that the American people are
afraid, then we shall have war with Mex
leo. because otherwise there will be only a
succession Of incidents and outrages.
But if Carranza is wise enough &c see
that the American nation is not of Mr.
Wilson'S mind. that even Mr.. Wilson can
not now permit further injuries TO go
UNPUBLISHED. then there is Real basis for
arrangement. Just as soon as the Mexi-
can statesmen can recognize that 1t IS not
through fear that American troops will
be withdrawn from Mexican soil, but
through a recognition that Mexico IS ready
and able to police the border, then our
troops can and should come home. When
they come. there will be an erd Of the
danger Of war.
The vice Of our present situation IS that
Mr.. Wilson has made those MeXica1s ON
whom must rest the final responsibility
believe that we are nation Of towards,
that he has attacked and run away, that
he cannot now withdraw from Mexico
without giving the fatal impression cf an
other scuttling until Mexican policy es-
tablished on a basis which promises safety
TO American lives. For all this Mr.. Will
son will have to pay. But now we can
only hope that Mexicans will understand
the fact as contrasted with the appearance.
If they do, the most hateful conflict in our
history will be avoided.
