Undoubtedty the police of Paris were aware of what was going on. It is incredible that so well known a per- Prince Louis could enter and ve Paris without detection, or that he could hold counsel with his brother and their followers without some degree of at- tention being directed to them. It may be that the Paris police are entirely willing that all the pretenders to the throne of nce should congregate in Paris as often hey desire and plot to their hi * con- eas art tent, as long as they do not disturb the public peace. Nay more, it is not to be deubted that in the depths of many a Frenchman's soul exists te a longing fondness for one of the several forms of royalist pretensions. There are three lea ing lines of such aspiration, the Orleanist the Legitimists and the Bonapartists, each with its pretender, and its corps of follow- ers, actuated in part by the stract love of the house to which they have attached themselves and in part again by the hope of rewards when the government has been overturned. The Napoleonic tradition is said to be today a vital force in France, running down into the lowest strata of So- ciety and up into the highest, and affect- ing the uttermost corners of the republic. It does not assert itself at present for the reason that there is no active propaganda a in operation in behalf of the Bonapartist candidate for the throne. If now Prince Louis is about to begin a campaign of « tation and money-raising for a possible coup It may be that an opportunity will soon arise to test the exact quality of this “tradition,” as well as the popularity of the present claimant. The Bonapartists who recently met in Paris are sald to have taken shrewd account of the domestic trou- bles now rending the republic in twain, the growing dissatisfaction of the higher army circles with the present form of govern- ment, and the natural tendency of the peo- ple to welcome changes. They are sald to believe that the time is near at hand for stroke similar to that by which. on the of December, 1851, Louls Napoleon, nun sake and uncle of the present pretende then “Prince-President” of Fr tra formed himself into Emperor of the French. rance, —_—__ + += ____ A Sewer-Cleaning Reform Needed. In yesterday's Star appeared an account of the protests of citizens against the pres- ent practice of the authorities in the re- moval of sewage refuse from the trunk sewers without precautions to prevent the spread of the unwholesome which arise from this material. The nuisance ap- pears to be most keenly felt in the vicinity of the Botanic Gardens, where sewer-clean- ng work on a large scile ix frequently carried on. It is not confined, however, to that area, but fs scattered all over the city. At all times of the year, and especially in summer, gangs of men With long-handled hoes, buckets and carts may be seen on the streets stopping at the corner sewer traps to draw forth ‘the accumulations there. The stuff brought ferth from such places is mainly the street refuse washed into the drains, but it alw has a foul appearance and emits intensely disagree- able and doubtless dangerous odors. Th odors: sewer-cleaning process is unquestionably necessary, but its attendant evils should be reduced to a minimum, instead of as now being permitted to offend the senses of the people and menace their health.

This is altogether satisfactory from t view of the war, both as to its 1 its lessons. The acquisition of territory brings with it a neces- sity which must immediately be met, and the Secretary's urgings should be quickly followed by Corgress.

It is asserted that a conference has just een held in Parts betwe sentatives of the Bonaparte family, Victor snd Louts Napoleon, for the purpose of lay- ing plans for the overthrow of the French republic and the establishment of a mon- arehy. Prince Victor recently abandoned claims to the French throne in favor of -ouls, who is, therefore, the present pre- tender of that ne. He is at the same time « colonel in the Russian army. It is re- lated that after the brothers and their followers had consulted for several days as to the best methods of raising the funds necessary for a coup, Louis returned to Russia to resume his military duties. It is altogether possible that this meeting actual- ‘y occurred, for stranger things have hap- pened in Paris before and will doubtless ontinue to happen. But it is essentially characteristic of Paris that so pronounced a display of revolutionary purpose should have been calmly conducted at the very capital of the republic which it is proposed desires tions to become a modei for all the worid, slanned to do » at least providing covered carts foul mat- ter extracted from the sew The gar- bage car = covered and there is even greater reason why tho: d for this In as purpose should be of the these days of machinery though some device might he found to ex- tract the accumulations from the sewers Without once exposing it to view or to the atmosphere breathed by the people.

The Spanish to: according to the reports sent to drid, was 581 men killed and wounded. in the battie of July %, when the Cervera squadron was destroyed, American was Kiled and 10 were wounded, the Spanish loss being about 350 killed or drowned and luv wounded. Thus in these two fights, the largest of the war, the total American loss was one killed and 1 wounded, while the* Spaniards lost in beth killed and wounded svl men. Most of the Americans were killed and wounded in the minor fighting, incidental eto the cab.e cutting enterpris: of the blockaders, as, for instance, the af- talr off Cardenas, when there were 5 killed and 3 wounded on the torpedo boat Wins- tow. Another remarkable feature of the casualty list is that of the 67 men who were wounded during the war 34 have been returned to duty, while only one has died since the receipt of injuries, six haye been permanently invalided and six continue un- der treatment. These figures suggest, as far as the comparison with the Spanish record goes, that the loss of 266 men of the Maine has been atoned for with some interest. ———_+ + = —___ Now that the Royal Agricultural Society of England has forbidden the exhtbition of horses with docked tails, with reason to be- eve that the barbarous disfigurement will becor.e unfashionable in that country, is it too much to hope that our imitating Anglo- meniacs will “catch on” tn time, and allow their horse's tails to remain in a state of nature?

Inviti a Diphtheria Epidemic. Washington, N. J., is now in a state of panic of fear lest a diphtheria epidemic should spread among the people. The trouble all comes from some one’s almost criminal neglect of one of the simplest rules of modern sanitation. The other day a child of five years died with symptoms strongly suggestirg diphtherla. So strong, indeed, was the suspicion, that portions of the mucus matter from the child’s throat were sent to the state board of health at Trenton for examination. Meanwhile the funeral was held and was attended by about 1 school mates of the dead child and as many more adults. It is reported now that every one of the children kissed the Ips of the little one and by many of the adults, following a custom which every suggestion of health precaution condemns as dangerous. Just after the funeral ser- vices had been concluded, and after the people attending had dispersed, a tele- graphic message was received from Tren- ten stating that the bacteriological exam- ination had di8closed the unquestioned presence of diphtheria bacilli. This an- nouncement of course meant that each person who had touched the lips of the dead child had incurred the danger of re- cetving the disease germs, and consequently Washington was agitated as never before in its history. Hurried precautions were taken to quarantine each of those who had thus been exposed to death, and the town is now in practically a state of siege, the ordinary routine having been in a measure suspended in the hope that the disease may not spread further. It is too early to learn yet the extent of the evil which has thus been wrought, but if the town escapes an epidemic it will be strange. Stringent measures should be adopted to ascertain and punish in some way the pef- son or persons responsible for this out- rageous defiance of the laws of health. —___ + «= —___ Senator Platt has been quoted: “I want a talker as a colleague.” The senator’s man- ner of phrasing his comment emphasizes the need to which he refers. The termina- tion “er” implies the ability to do a thing, without reference to the manner of its per- formance. “Ist,” however, suggests skill and conveys the sense of dignity which at- taches to superior achievement. It is a very fine distinction, but in this connection it is important. Mr. Chauncey M.

The tender of $20,000,000 is regarded as an act of genuine liberality on the part of the United States, which is in a position to force its demands without the payment of any sum. It will relieve Spain of a large share of the Philippine indebtedness, pos- sibly all when her creditors understand that refusal of these terms may result in Span- ish repudiation of the entire debt. It is certainly in striking contrast with the attitude of the average victorious na- tien, which usually exacts the cession of large territory and the payment of a heavy money indemnity besides. The United States instead of asking a money indemnity tenders one, instead of demanding the ces- sion of. territory where its armies and navies have not been it demands only the cession of such territory as cannot be re- linquished without the country proving false to its announced motives of humanity. Not only has it proved true to its pledges in this respect, but has carried its hu- mane purposes so far as to offer financial assistance to its vanquished foe and admit it for a term of years to the trade of the Philippines on equal terms with itself. —————_++2—___ A Law-Maker Breaking the Law. From the Denver Rocky Mountain News. If Representative-elect Roberts of Utah has any regard for the highest welfare of that state he will decline to take his in the Fifty-sixth Congress. When h@ac- tually becomes a representative his first act should be to resign and allow a new member to be chosen—one who 1s not an open and active polygamist. The whole eastern press is up in arms on the question, and Utah as a polygamist state is an issue which will have to be met. The first requi- site of a lawmaker is to be himself a re- specter of the law. Hard on the Rough Riders, From the San Francisco Bulletin.
