parity by the government,

di-ca.-e, i'or which reason the comlitiuus surroandim; tu-e who have wealth in this American life are such as to lessen its value, as a safeguard against the microbes beginning their deadly work. lichee the microbe has a socialistic side. We may only light diseases in a coinhiuiiity by meeting it everywhere, anil there is a direct and very great interest to the man of wealth in the wellbeing of the man of poverty. Absence of food in tin? room of the latter means that sooner or later disease will break out :;. the room, and the microbes or their spo.es will in time pass the heavy curtains on the windows of the mansion to Jind their prey inside. Xay, the connection extends fur beyond any single community. It embraces the world. The crops in live provinces of Russia failed almost entirely in A widespread famine was the result and many thousands died. These poor people were attacked by a simple influenza, wh Ai under the law discovered by Pasteur was intensified in its character by their ill fed condition. Thus a virulent form of grippe Wds produced, a contagious disease which spread rapidly along the traveled roads of commerce to (lermany, France, Kngland and the United States. So there were many funerals in this country because thousands of Kussian peasants were reduced to starvation. This is only one instance out of many. The Hoard of Health of New York had to light the cholera because there was an unusual drought in Persia, near the City of Meshed, when the pilgrims gathered there in IS'Jl at the tomb of a Mohammedan saint. During the great famines that aftlieted the countries of Europe and Asia in the middle ages and since for every death that occured from starvation and its subsequent exhaustion ten persons lost their Jives from infectious diseases that orig inated or were intensified by the privations entailed by distress. And the frightful conditions of the prisons and the sufferings of the prisoners in the sixteenth century caused an outbreak of typhus-fever, which killed not alone the wretched criminal but also the Judges on the bench, who thus were punished for their tolerence ot the conditions in which the disease found its birth. This is the lesson taught by history, which to-day we see by the light of the great discoveries made in sanitary science in the last few years. Dr. Edson appropriately says: "Wc might call it the

and thereby degrade it to its market value." it appears to a large mass ol people that Mr. Aldredge is not free from the use of sophistry and that lie is making a desperate eifort by an adroit subterfuge to win the frienls of silver to a false standard. This seems to be one of the last and most "foxv" turns that the gold bugs have taken to strengthen their position with the mass of people and it is not improbable that the argument may make some converts to the gold standard party.

Tin: unusual activity of clock and jewelry manufacturers, silver plating factories and importers of art goods, pottery and bric-a-brac indicates the anticipation of better markets for this season than have ruled in the mercantile world for some time past. It shows that there is a partial, if not almost complete restoration of confidence in trade conditions on the part of many directors of important branches of industry and may be taken as a sure indication that the commercial pendulum is swinging in the right direction.

Vi;atiii:k conditions are now in a state of uncertainty. We are now bordering on the edge of winter. This is a season that is subject to sudden and great changes in temperature. Snow has already fallen at Uenton Harbor, Michigan, not very far north of us, and the mercury has dropped to the freezing point. It is a season when the heating stove is liable to come into play on short notice, and a season when people should be particularly guarded against sudden asmospheric changes. A little

It is extremely dangerous business and liable to bring them to an untimely end. Marion llomain, the eight-year-old son of Samuel ltomain of JJristol, fell from a water cart on which lie was stealing a ride. The rear wheels of the heavy wagon passed over his bod', crushing his thigh and injuring him internally. He is in a critical condition. Death f a Kam.

He was a beauty, of line proportions, good weight and clean, heavy lleece of high quality. He was taken home after the fan, and was entered at the Bourbon fair, where he was siezed while on exhibition witli an illness that resulted in his death the forepart of this week.

A decision of more than ordinary importance to farmers was handed down by the court of appelates a few days since, which has a direct bearing on every person who owns pro t rty. One .James Anderson, of Kankakee township, Laporte county, sued two road supervisors in lS'.Ol for taking soil from the road in front of his farm and hauling it to another part of the county, where it was again utilized for road purposes. He was defeated in the lower courts and took the case to the appellate court at expense of the jokes of many friends, but the appellate court has reversed the decision of the lower courts, and it is thought that Anderson will be awarded damages. In his ruling the court showsthat supervisors may remove sand or gravel from one location to another on the same man's land, but that they can not haul it away and place it on another man's property without the permission of the man from wJiose property it is removed
