Editor Essex County Herald:
The speech of Mr.. Brooks Fletch

during Chautauqua week in Forest

full and logical of any public speech
ever delivered in this town.
We understand that Fletcher is to
be the next Governor of Ohio. If
so, he will be a great credit to him.
self, the State and the Country; for
II he incorporates into his official du-
ties, the many good sentiments which
he so wisely expressed, he will be one
Of the greatest Governors in the his
tory of Ohio.
His subject was the cohesion of To-
cal communities, and so thoroughly
did he disparage and decry local dis
Indignation that we think some of
HIS auditors must have received ben
eft.
If you want to destroy the value
Of your real estate, shut up your no.
tel, stop the publication of your pa

order houses; and, if you have any
money to invest, buy guaranteed
stocks and bonds and hoard them.
Don't pay attention to schools or
streets. Let your highways 20 IN

able reputation az practical non

But, if you want to build up your

Help your local merchants, help ev.

don't get a crouch on and go and

TIL is is the only way to build a

Stand by each ether in every respect

Washington Weekly Chat
Written by a Special Correspondent
for us in Washington

Will there be a recurrence of the
influenza epidemic this coming fall
and winter, like that which is still so
fresh in the minds of the country?
The Public Health Bureau is inclin-
ed to the bleif that as soon as cold
and wintry weather arrives that the
'flu' will return with it. Although
experiments have Teen going on for
months n an endeavor to find spec
ific to combat the malady,, the Bur-
eau announces now that little or no
Roadway has been made and that the
funds in hand for investigating have
been exhausted. Congress has been
asked to come to the rescue, and in
all probability 1t will Go SO prcm,,f
ly. An appropriation of $1,500,0O0
has been asked in bill introduced
in the House; similar bill has also
been introduced in the Senate. Fur
Their research will proceed immedi-
ately the money is available, as the
bills state that it is the belief of the
medical profession that the second
and third years of Tie disease will
show frightful after effects unless
specific remedies can be found. The
appalling loss of 100000 lives, five
times our loss in the war, is cited as
the urgent need that the work of the
Public Health Bureau be continuous
ly maintained.

The police departments of the

and the jails are nearly empty, all
due to stopping the sale of intoX-

but clean the Jamaica ginger out of
all the stores and stop the sale of
cheap substitutes for red liquor.
With 1892 strikes in New England
in three years, it is manifest that the
difference between capital and labor
