General Weyler, en route to Madrid, has touched Corunna, Spain, and wa ac corded an enthusiastic reception by the Feople of the town. He did not leave the ship. or was he obliged to do so to wit- ness the Gemonstration of his admirers. They came out to him ina flotilla. The har- bor taxed for craft to convey the people to the ship's side. And yet General Weyler is under an official c'oud; has lost his commission as commander-in-chief in Cuba, and is threatened by the Spanish government with a court martial. His sue- cessor im Cuba. under orders from Madrid, is undoing seme of the most fiendish feat- all this. € the bearts people. Th which was not only done under orders of the government, but represented and still represe the popular Spanish idea of €eviing with an enemy, foreign or domes- tic. Later, the Spanish government may encourage counter demonstrations, but there ix every right to belleve that the free and untrammeled feeling in Spain supports General Weyler. It is all the more easy to believe this after witnessing the differences on the subject of Cuba between the people and the government in this country. The gov- ernment has 2ll along supported Spain; has, indeed, done more for Spain than Spain has been able to do for herself. It has run Spain's errands, done police duty for ner, and, altogether, proved a valuable ally m the fight against the insurgents. But the people of the United States have not approved of the service. Their sympa- thies have been with the insurgents. They have desired the power of the government exerted in behalf of the insurgents. The popular admiration of Consul General Lee fs founded upon his refusal to fall in with tke coldblooded commercial view of mat- ‘h Jominated the conduct of this : ng the Cleveland adminis- His conduct, which has contrib- conditions which so long existed in Cuba, is universal ded. The President himself app nd on the strength of it retains him in office. Sentiment in this country, therefore, need not be misled by the attitude of the Sa- a ministry toword General Weyler. It argely a diplomatic play. General Wey- ler himself so considers it. He is offered up temporarily to appease American indigna- tion, but his brutalities have endeared him to the popular neart in Spain. The in- surgents in Cuba also see the play, and that accounts for their rejection of the gloved hand which Senor Sagasta is now extending to them. Blanco will do for a Purpose, but Weyler is the real Spanish hero. —_- + >—___ An Able Advocate. The interview with Senator Morgan print- ed yesterday was an excellent summary of the many reasons that tend to prove the wisdom of the immediate annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United States. Senator Morgan knows this question thor- eughly, has studied it both at a distance and close at hand, knows the history of the movement to unite the two nations, knows the nature of the opposition, and, in fact, is in close touch with every phase of the question. His visit to Hawaii this antumn persuaded him more firmly than ever that the ultimate destiny of the two republics draws them closer together and that the safety of each suggests immediate annexation. The veteran statesman has re- turned to Washington filled with ardor for the consummation of the project of an- nexation, and he will doubtless in this in- stance prove as doughty a champion as in other matters in which he has taken a leading interest. The treaty is apparently im no danger, but it will probably be rati- fied the sooner by reason of the vigor that such advocates as Senator Morgan will bring to bear on the case. ————_ + +e____ If, ‘as is asserted, the practice of baying votes remains in operation without bemg ecnfined to any one party, there were a lot of bat investments made this fall. ——__ + e+ —-_—_ Mr. Choate is beginning to impress him- self on the popular mind as a gentiemaa who gets talked of in connection with a great many vacancies. ——_ +e —___ Diphtheria. There is no occasion for serious alarm among the parents on account of the preva- lence of dipththeria in certain sections of the District. This disease usually appears at this scason of the year and continues with more er less virulence for varying periods. The city will probably never be wholly free from it, though science is now at work seeking means to prevent the oc- currence of the illness. There is nothing in the present situation to warrant any feel- ing of panic or even of grave apprehension among those whose children are now well and are not within range of contagion from cases already developed. What is needed in such instances is care in the beginning that the children are not exposed to known sources of the disease germs; caution about the sanitary conditions of the houses; acute attention to all symptoms that tend to cre- ate a suspicion of the presence of diphthe- ria, and a thorough overhauling of ail places where children congregate in num- bers. Too much stress can not be laid upon the duty that each parent owes to to the com- munity to act promptly whenever the least symptom of this disease makes its appear- ance. The rule in such cases should be to isolate the child upon the first suspicion, rather than upon a certainty. While this plan may necessitate some hardships, an- noyance and discomfort both to the child and to others in the household and may in- volve a loss of schcol attendance, the pos- sible consequences of inattention to this precaution amply justify the step. Until parents learn this lesson in the case of diphtheria as well as in that of any other of the contagious diseases peculiar to children there will always be danger of the spreat of these noxious germs in the schools. There should be no waiting for certainties, but action as soon as suspicion 43 born. The health officer declares that thére is nothing wrong with the conditions at the Johnson School in Mount Pleasant, nothing that can be directly accused of causing the diphtheria that has appeared among the pupils there attendant. Six cases have oc- curred among these pupils. This coinci- dence may be due either to sources of the disease incidental to the school premises or to the spread of the disease from one case contracted elsewhere and taken to the school through the failure of the parent to detect the identifying symptoms in sea- former theory, yet there are conditions there and acknowledged to be duplicated among certain other schools that Iead to a | measure of suspicion that there may have been some danger in the school surround- ings. The sewerage facilities are not what they should be in this day and even at best st always be held as possible fer the creation of unwholesome nditions. It does net suffice now to de- clare that everything about the building is clean and that there are no foul odors to be detected. The building has just been isinfected and any inspection based upon present conditions does not fully meet the case. The suggestion that other schools in the city are similarly equipped shou!d arouse official interest in this matter. Save in the most distant suburbs the school buildings should be supplied with the best of sani- tary facilities. If no sewer runs to the Johnson Scheol no time should be lost in connecting that building with the nearcst trunk, which can not be more than a block distant. If there is no money at hand for this purpose Congress should be appealed to immediately after the opening of the session for an emergency fund for this pur- pose. ——_~-++___. Republican Wrangling. The republicans in New York and Ohio are keeping up with great energy and ap- Parent relish the factional fighting begun during ‘he recent campaigns. The common enemy seems to have been lost sight of altogether. Platt and anti-Platt in the one state, and Hanna and anti-Hanna in the other, are the cries heard above all the rest of the din. New York has been lost to the democrats by a large majority, and Ohio’s republican vote has been whittled down to a comparatively small figure. No two family rows of recent date have shown more virulence, er have been conducted with greater skill for giving aid and com- fort to the other side. Some of the feat- vres, indeed, ought to be patentable for their originality and effectivencss. Yet there .s talk of harmony, and not as a joke. The Platt people, while denounc- ing the anti-Platt people in the severest terms—freely accusing them of treachery and .other things like that—express a wil- lingness to forgive all and receive the “traitors” back. But first the “traitors” must humble themselves, and, returning to the fold, acknowledge Mr. Platt’s supre- macy. The anti-Platt people apply no epil- thets to the rank and file of the Platt crowd, but for Mr. Platt himself they have only execration. They demand that he abdicate his boss-ship and give way for a leadership more reputable and more in harmony with the aspirations of the party. How harmony is to grow out of such a State of case is difficult to imagine. Things are quite as bad in Ohio. Mr. Hanna has been indorsed for senator by a state convention, his party has a majority in the legislature which is to elect the senator, and yet Mr. Hanna is threat- ered with defeat. Gossip in political cir- cles all over the state is making free with the names of the most eminent of the republican leaders. Senator Foraker and Gov. Busineil are accused of acts that would discredit a ward heeler, and Mr. Hanna is mildly acterized as a mill- stone around the party's neck. If the veignt is not lifted the party will go to wreck. If the weight is lifted the anti- Hanna people will take charge. Meanwhile the Congress elections are coming on, they are of the first importance and are going to be contested with more spirit by the silver men than any of a generation have been. Do the republicans of New York and Ohio consider thet in continuing the racket of the-recent cam- paigns they dre serving the cause of sound money? Is such an example a good one to set at such a time? Nurses for the Poor. The movement now under way in this ity to establish a system of supplying the poor with trained nurses at a nominal cost is worthy of all success. The plan has been tried elsewhere with satisfactory re- sults and there is no local obstacle to a complete justification of its adoption here. The plan is to enable the poor who-can not afford to hire nurses for the comparatively large sums usually paid to the members of that worthy profession to secure the trained attendance of persons accustomed to the care of the sick, affording the com- forts of direct personal attention. Many apparently helpless cases have been brought to happy conclusions through the medium of good nursing, and it is appall- ing to consider the suffering that pre- vails among the poor of large cities through the lack of such attentions. The scheme row under consideration by the Central Union Mission contemplatés that the work shall in no wise tend toward a pauperiza- tion of the patients, who are to pay a cer- tain small sum for each visit whenever they are able to pay at all. Those cases of absolute destitution in which free nursing is to be given can readily be identified and with good management there is no reason to fear that the extension of this privilege to the poor will result in the creation of a feeling of dependence upon the organized charitable agencies. The project is emi- nently practical and aims at a noble -pur- pose, the alleviation of suffering. It should receive the moral and financial support of the community, which can do wonders through small individual contributions to such works through established associa- tions like the Mission. Washington should always be ready to adopt modern ideas in charitable work that have stood the test of experience elsewhere, for it is through the cultivation of such a spirit that the community becomes equal to emergencies and capable of dealing with grave problems. ———————+ « > ___ The Emperor of Germany is moved to some indignation by the discovery that he is one of the few points on which the news- papers of this country are inclined to agree. ——_—~+ += ____ If Governor Lowndes succeeds in curing Senator Wellington of his violent attack of Jonahism the recipe will be greatly in de- mand among various politicians. The Turkish government finds itseif somewhat embarrassed by a lack of funds. Greece may as well prepare to talk to the collector. Mr. Platt does not desire to be better ; than his party. He merely wishes to be bigger. Municipal Governmen: The newly elected mayors of Baltimore and Louisville are now installed in office, and both enter upon their duties with an expressed determination to administer their trusts strictly with regard to the public rather than to local partisan interests. Their inaugural addresses are brief, but to the point, and if the promises made shall be redeemed by performances in line with them the cause of good government for municipalities will be materially strength- ened. It is not a holiday task, either, that these two officials have before them. Mu- nicipal politics bas for so long controlled mnuicipal matters that a strictly business- lke administration of a city’s affairs is re- garded by some people as an impossibility. It is characterized as a dream—en amiable but impracticable aspiration. Politics, it is asserted, cannot be divorced affairs in a city any more than there is promise now that business, and business atone, shall characterize the ad- ministration of affairs, and no_plea of find- ing the job exceedingly difficult will be ade- quate to excuse a failure. The people un- derstand that there are many’ difficulties in the way, but they will expect them to be surmounted. Judge Van Wyck will shortly take the teins in New York, but his is to be an ad- ministration after the old order of things. He is very outspoken, and deserves credit at least for that. He will officer the city, so far as it may lie in his power, with members of his own political party, and that of course will Iead to the distribution of other partisan favors. In a word, the tic, in Tammany men, Tammany If the new administration is to be democ: after the Tammany order of things, every respect. methods, Tammany’s prosperity. city can prosper under such a regime, well and gocd. But the city has fair notice that Politics will again rule in the city hall, and that through the joint efforts of the new mayor, and his discoverer and sponsor, Richard Croker, her interests will only be corsidered in connection with Tammany's interests. The two systems of municipal govern- ment will thus be in operation at the same time, and the result will be of general in- terest. ——__ +s _____ Spanish editors are quarreling over Wey- ler so bitterly that a challenge has passed.

Not From Spanish Headquarters. “Do you place ary confidence in the re- Ports of a batde in Cuba?” “Yes,” repled the incredulous man, “I am inclined to attach a great deal of im- portance to them. You see, they are strict- ly unofficial.” Turkey to Austria. ‘The Sultan bowed and said: ‘Dear friend, I doff my fez to ycu; ’Tis what the orders that offend You so were spoken through.” Depressed. “I am told,” r2marked Miss Cayenne, “that you said some very clever things last evening.” - “Yes,” replied Willie Wishington; “it is very discouraging.” “What is?” “The surprised manner in which every- body is talking abcut it.” Genuine Family Pride. “My great grandfather on my mother's side was one of the signers of the Declara- tion of Independence,” remarked Miss Doliy mrox. “Yes,” added her mother, “and that was at a time when it really meant something for a man to have a signed article pub- lished.” A Man With a Record. “What effort did you make—what sacri- fice; while you were in Congress?” inquir- ed the constituent. : The politician thought seriously for a moment and then straightening himself up, impressively answered: “I stayed awake and listened to the speeches.” Difficult ines.

The health department has reported that diphtheria exists among many children who go to the public schools, and the disease seems to be on the increase, as seven new cases were reported yesterday. The health commissioner hus advised that closer at- tention be paid to the drinking water, and that separate cups be used in the schools. The school board has not passed an order to this effect. A committee from the school board has reported on the unsanitary con- dition of some of the school houses. Diphtheria ts no longer the terror it once was. Improved methods in treatment have reduced the percentage of fatal cases, but it is still a trouble formidabie enough to demand close attention. The danger of a disease spreading in a public school is great, as compared with establishments where as many people are found together as in factories, because children who at- tend the schools are of a tender age, and |. tor that reason are more susceptible to at- tack. The condition of the children also differs greatly. Some parents are more careful than others in seeing that their ettspring are ciean and weil clothed. The greatest danger of a spread lies in the water. The suggestion that each pupil have a separate cup might be dithcuit to put into practice where so many children are congregated, but it is a very sens.- ble suggestion. If any of the school buildings are, in the opinion of the physt- cians of the health department, in an un- sanitary condition, they should be attended to at once, even if it should be necessary to borrow the money to do the work. it wouid be a calamity to have even a few of the schoois closed. —————»++e Cold Water. From the Bostou Herald. The old scheme for establishing a na- tional universicy at Washington seems to be assuming sometning like a definite form. At least, a committee has been organized to raise money. That such an institution would do some good is undeniable. It is @ serious question, however, whether the disadvantages would not outweigh the ad- vantages. This multiplication of universi- ties has been a great evil. There are more of them now than we can properly sup- pert. Furthermore, the intervention of the government in affairs of the sort is not apt to have happy results. Even if the scheme is carried through without govern- ment help, the allusions of the projectors to the “American ideas” which should be taught scggest that false form of patriot- ism cultivated by jingoes. course, “American ideas” ought not to be an ob- jectionable phrase. But circumstances have, unfortunately, made it so. —>+e—___. = Why They'll Fail. From the Buffalo News.
