In every other respect the Repub- | lican party can point with pride to what has been done ANOTHER PLAGUE SCARE. HE City Board of Health has involved San Francisco in another bubonic plague scare, which, from all the facts known, we are able to denounce as equally groundless ! with that which originated in the same source last March. This latest alarm began with the case of a Chinese who was under treatment for malarial fever, accompanied, in its acute stage, by swelling of the glands. In that stage | his case came under cognizance of some one connected with the Board of Health, and the | conclusion was jumped at that he had bubonic plague. The subsequent proceedings fol- lowed. Inoculation was decided upon, and the whole Asiatic population of the city has been put under duress to submit to the serum treatment at the hands of all sorts of em-~ | plague, none located nor identified, and the report of each attended by the information that the victims were also suffering from other diseases previous to the assumed presence of the capital ailment. This treatment of the matter has resulted in a well developed panic outside of San Francisco, causing a distinct embargo upon our commerce and a hadow upon the export trade and the prosperity of the whole State for the entire year. The time has come for some positive action on the part of the people of this city. We have here scientific physicians, with the caution and modesty which accompany that character. They are not compelled to cke out an income by seeking political position and its emoluments. They have a regard for their own professional reputation and for thewel- fare of this city. Their services should be secured to settle at once this highly vital matter. upon the matter, with able scientific assistance, and have been ready at the appearance of danger to frankly disclose all the facts. They have found no occasion to make any dis- closure, further than that the plague is not here. The pathological pecu-~ liarities of common disease among Asiatics are not known to American practitioners, proved scientific standing here who have Asiatics among their clientele, and so far not one of them has given his testimony to the existence of a single case of plague here.’, ‘ It is a matter of such supreme seriousness to the whole State as to dwarf all otlr matters. The county organization of physicians has refused to indorse the statements heretofore made that plague is here. Their action was based upon positive knowledge | derived from the professional contacts of members of the society. On top of this comes| the admission of the State Board of Health itself that there is no plague here. The issue now is, how to remove the impression that has been unfortunately pro- pagated abroad, to the immeasurable injury of California and to the probable loss of a vhole year's commerce. The Call desires to go upon record in the most positive manner, upon knowledge obtained through the exertion of all the resources at command of a newspaper, that there has been and is no bubonic plagueinSan Francisco. But anewspaper cannot alone undo the | harm that is being done. There must be immediate action by the mercantile and business | classes, to secure the abundant scientific testimony at hand. There are men here of emi- nence in the medical world who are known and trusted far abroad. pressi Their action and ex- m should be secured immediately. And when they have spoken let all official au-| thority be brought into action to purge the city’s good name of the harmful stain that has | fallen upon it. The State Board of Health has already taken action and has officially notified the State Boards throughout the Union that the plague is not here. This is offi- | cial action reliable and satisfactory. Let it be followed up by such action as shall secure | the co-eperation of the Federal authorities in putting an end to the needless less panic which exists at a distance. and cause- | Here there is no alarm, panic or disturbance in | Chinatown or elsewhere.

With the history of the movement to bring about the undertaking of that important work the people ars familiar. Some time ago the California Legislature appropriated $250,000 for the impounding of debris | dent’s failing health. In 1893 the Democratic opponents of Mr. Cleveland’s sound money policy were greatly cheered by reports that his health was so bad that he would not last till the meeting of Congress in December. Now it is discovered that President McKinley is suffering serious impairment of heaith. The f by the operation of act is that he is in better health than better than when he was in Congress. He has the springy step and complexion of a boy. In years he is in the prime of life, and is. getting his physical dividends out of a life well ordered, prudent or year: and abstemious from his youth. | in the upper rivers for the protection of miners and He has gone through the trials and crises of an un- | farmers. To this the Federal Government added usually active administration with the ease and facil- | $25 0.000. The California Debris Commission, com--| posed of Government engineers, has worked for a long time to perfect a system by which the desired work can be effectively accomplished. They finally eported to the War Department a system which would cost $800,000, or $300,000 more than: the com- bined appropriations. They declined to go ahead with the work until the required money was in sight. The delay which was thus threatened would be 2 | serious injury, and accordingly efforts were made by ! the California delegation in Congress to procure au- | thority for the War Department to begin the work | with the money appropriated, the deficiency to be; supplied by appropriations to be made hereafter. That authority has now been given in the bill adopted by the House, and we have therefore good reason for expecting that this work, so important to the people of California, will soon be under way. To the men who have achiceved the good results now in sight much credit is due. The strife between the miners in the mountains and the people of the valleys was hurtful to the best interests of Califor- nia in many ways, and it was a matter of general con- gratulation when they agreed upon a programme which promised to open a way for hydraulic mining while at the same time securing the farms along the streams from harm. The outlook is now encour- aging, and it is to be hoped there will be no further hitch in the work. ity that come of systematic business habits and a habit of never fretting or worrying. What he can help he helps, and what he can’t help he dismisses without worry. He is of stout and long-lived stock. His parents and grandparents had an excellent vital record.

Many important measures, including the settlement of the monetary standard and the adoption of wise regulations for cur-, | v and banking, have been adopted Questions growing out of the annexation of Hawaii and Porto Rico have been dealt with by the passage of bills which will ve the support of the people, and it is known the Nicaragua canal bill would have been passed had not the opposition managed to postpone it by antagonizing the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. In fact, despite that opposition, the bill may yet be taken up and that important measure added to the record of the work of the session. So much good work done will make more con- spicuous than ever the failure of Congress to pass the merchant marine bill. The pledge in the platiorm of impairment of his vigor. AN EARLY ADJOURNMENT.

It is evident that the British public has yet much to learn in the arts of the press censor. —— A Federal Senate committee is fearful that if diplo- macy is to play a part in the construction of the Nicaragua canal work will not begin until fifty years have passed. Somebody must be circulating a report that American diplomats are not what they used to be. e Neglect on the part of Congress in that particular is difficult to explain.

The convention called by the Game and Fish Commi ers to consider the pre- servafion and protection of the wild game and fish of the State will convene on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, in the rooms of the Olympic Gun Club, Kearny Why, no. street and Union Square avenue. The delegates will continue in session for three days. As previously announced, the main object of the meeting will be to outline a bill which will have the effect of completely revising the game and fish laws of the State. @his will be submitted to the next Legislature. One of the principal features of the pro- posed bill is the shortening of the open season on all kinds of game now pro-ect. ed and to extend the protection of the law to those kinds not now mentioned in the statutes. Another point to recom mended is the limiting of the number of gamc birds that a person may kill in one ay. The separation of the game and fish interests will also be recommended. —_— Civil Service Examinations.
