¢ ——_—— THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘TUESDAY -October 8, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has-ne competitor. t7In order to avoid delays, on ne- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpone. = The Typhoid Fever Situation. While the statements of Health Officer Woodward in relation to the prevalence of typhold fever in the District, published yes- terday in The Star, tend in a measure to subdue the popular excitement caused by the reports that there are at least a thou- sand cases of the disease now in progress, there ts reason to fear that certain condl- tions are here prevalent this year that cause an unusual increase in the number of cases and consequently the number of deaths from the disease. It may be that many of the six hundred cases that are now esti- mated as being the total number in the Dis- trict have been imported, that Is to say, as has already been pointed out in The Star, it 1s quite possible that the disease is in- curred by summer travelers while away from home’and that it develops after their return to this city. This, of course, can only be demonstrated by the most careful investigation Into the whereabouts of each patient for many weeks prior to the time of inquiry, and the cost of such a census might be too large to be undertaken at this time. But if it stould be proved that the fault is not here the expenditure would be well warranted, just as it would be an econom!- cal item in the end if it should be found that the cause of the disease Is local. In the for- mer case much of the fear that unfortunate- ly now prevails In the city would be allayed. In the latter event there would be good grounds obtained for a campaign against the disease germ which must be traced to its source before it can be eradicated. The health officer dispels a popular il.usion when ke declares that insanitary drainage is not primarily the cause of typhoid, al- though it may be a contributing agent by so debilitating the system as to render it sus- ceptible to the influence of the typhoid bacil- lus, which must be taken Into the stomach in the form of food or drink. His recom- mendation that the entire water supply of the city should be filtered before use de- mands attention by the national legislators and it Js imperative that this suggestion, coming from co high a source and coupled with such an undeniably serious situation as exists today, should receive immediate con- sideration by the committees on the Distri¢t of Columbia and appropriations of both houses when those bodies shall undertake w the work of caring for the interests of the people of the national capital. It is to be expected that in such a matter as this, affecting the health of residents in the Dis- trict, congressmen will be particularly in- clined to make appropriations for improv- ing the sanitary conditions of the city, Inas- muoh ‘us they spend a greater part of their time in Washington and are exposed to quite the same dangers that confront the regu- lar resident. The present emergency ts not yet, however, of such a character as to warrant the spread of alarm among the people, for typhoid is . hot a centagious disease in the stricter sense of that term, which limits the spread of an ailment to the direct influence of com- munication with a diseased person. It is more properly an: infectious fever coming from a common cause, such as contaminated water, food or milk. Care, therefore, should be had in such a season as this that every article of food and every ounce of liquid nourishment should be thoroughly cooked or boiled before use. It is fortunate that the season is now about past when Ice is needed to cool the drinking water, for, as Dr. Wood- ward strongly suggests, even ice itself is a common medium of communication of the bacillus of this dreadful fever. Close care to ull the details of life will do more in such an emergency than all the medicine invented or discovered and it would be wise for all people to refrain absolutely from the use of well water and to boil before using all the river water brought into the house. Mean- while every physician in Washington should aid by reporting the cases that come under observation without delay. —_~ + ____ Go Ahead With the Work. Everybody interested in the welfare of the national capital will surely rejoice over the decision of the Supreme Court of the rict announced yesterday, which prac- establishes the title of the general government to the Potomac flats. For many years there has been litigation as to the ownership of this extensive property that has delayed public improvements of the most necessary character and that have in themselves created most of the value that the land that was once a morass now possesses. Public enterprise has converted it from an abandoned swamp into a site for one of the most beautiful parks in the country. The case will now in all likeli- hood go to the Supreme Court of the United States, where no doubt the title of the government be incontrovertibly es- tablished. Congress ought even now to have no hesitation about making appropria- tions of sufficient size to complete the work without delay, as there Is practically no chance for a reversal of the careful judg- trent of the lower court by the higher tri- bunal. ——_+ += ____ It would be delicate In Mr. Talmage to Tefrain in his presidential discourses from discussing the fine points of whether or not It is wrong to fish on Sanday. —— ¢ =—______ Even if Goverror Culberson did get a Jit- tle ad. for himself out of this prize fight, hey was perfectly entitied. - +6 = Only eighty-four men were employed to- day on the city post-office building. +02 Fusion is Now a Fnet. Fusion among the decent anti-Tammany elements of New York city has been ac- complished and the prospect, which twenty- four hours ago appeared gloomy to the friends of respectable city government, 's today eneouraging. The republicans, state democrats, gocd goverrment clubs and the ccemmittee of fifty reformers have agreed upon a ticket and an exelse plank that are said to be satisfactory to Oswald Otten- dorfer, the leader and adviser of the Ger- man-American Reform Union, and the Fresent indications are that Tammany is qpnfronted today by a coalition nearly es strong as that of a year ago, when the old regime was wiped out of power by an overwhelming majority. Fusion kas been accomplished with difficulty. The herculean task of mix- ing oil and water in the making of a slate composed of republicans and democrats has been accomplished with less friction than was anticipated, and all the strong anti- Tammany elements in New York have Joined hands in the fight against a return to the diseveditable and corrupt methods that obtained under the management of the rng democratic orgenizaticns In that city. The attitude of Ottendorfer was peculiar nd he was not won over to the fusion side of the case until a late hour yesterday. His opposition to Commissioner Roosevelt for the latter's vigorous enforcement of the excise laws was the chief stumbling-block to an agreement with the arbitrators who were delegated to meet Fim, but he finally consented to stand upon the really broad Sunday plank that has been accepted by all the factions. The ticket appears to be en- tirely respectable and the excise utterances of the combined forces are to the purpose. They declare for the sanctity of the Sab- bath and insist trat there must be no legis- lation which will impair the quiet of the day or interfere with the observances of those who hold the day sacred. On the other hard, they suggest that there are questions as to what is a necessary and proper limitaticn, and whether, if. it is proper to sell liquor on Sunday, it may not be right for other persons who carry on business for the sale of those things which are necessary for ihe support of life, or even its reasonable comforts, to have equal privileges with the saloon keepers for Sun- day trade. The alliance resolutions there- tore simply suggest legislation which will meet these questions equitably and which shall not be adopted until it has been ap- proved by local option referendum to the people of tke larger cities. Two anti-Tammany crganizations— Steckler and the O'Brien democrats—are jeft out of the program. They are com- posed of dissatisfied spoilsmen whose strength {s inconsiderable and whose influ- ence is undesirable. Shrewd prophets de- clare that this combination means a sec- ond defeat for Tammany Hall, followed by a wholesome revival of that institution and a reorganization on a respectable plan. At | 96 effects. all events the fusion is a step towards a breaking down of strict party lines, which so often stand In the way of the best ef- forts of genuine reformers. A complete abandonment of partisan politics in city government Is less of an Illusion now that the decent voiers of the greatest city of the country are pledged to stand together to ballot for purity in municipal affairs. 2. __ Visitors, Who Are Welcome. The Knights of the Golden Eagle of America have shown good taste and judz- ment by selecting Washington as the place for their annual mecting. Coming as they do from many parts of the country, they but exhibit the natural tendency of all Americans to visit the national capital at least once in their lifetime, and It is to be hoped that before many seasons have passed their comparative recollection of the advantages of Washington as-a con- vention city will cause them to choose it as a permanent meeting place. There is a strong tendency among many of the na- tional bodies to adopt this course, which is becoming more and more practical as the cost of transportation becomes cheaper. The Knights of the Golden Eagle are fine representatives of that element of citi- zenship that seeks in such organization: the best means of mutual aid. There are many of these societies now in existence that have undoubtedly gone much to amzliorate the condition of unfortunate ones, und the fact that they adopt military organization and uniforms shows that the martial spirit is Inherent and strong in the people of this country and must be accepted as a sign of the patriotism that sways the average heart. Too Much Zeal. There was a case in the Police Court yes- terday that deserves more than passing at- tention. A woman had been brought into a station house in the middle of the night with an infant in her arms on the charge of being drunk and disorderly. She was compelled to walt in the station until morn- ing, when she was taken to the Police Cofrt and placed in the unspeakably re- volting quarters that are provided for the prisoners there. When the case came to trial it was found beyond question that she was the victim of excessive zeal on the part of the policeman who arrested her and that she was an injured rather than an offensive yerson. Such a case warrants prompt action by the authorities, for it is bad enough when a woman is wrongly ar- rested, but doubly so when her helpless in- fant is brought into contact with the vile conditions of a police court cell. —— With foot ball, the political campaign and the hazing seasons bunching them- selves, we have trouble enough of our own without interfering in Cuba’s affairs. ——_+ +s ___.

Her Education, “Charley,” said young Mrs. Torkins, “in a broker's oflice they have a blackboard with prices all over it, do they not?” “Why—er—yes.”” “Well, I'm glad to know at last what people mean when they talk about the board of trade.” A Grim Phase of Commerce. “What are you going to do, wit the overhead trolley going out of business?” said one undertaker to another. “I dunno,” was the lugubrious reply; “I hate to do it, but I guess I'll have to live in Brooklyn.
