1 Radical ' Strong Covfrnmcnt."
From the San Francisco Examiner.
The New York Timet is the lead
ing Radical organ of the Empire
State, if not ot too Union. It do
dares the sentiment that a airainst
the effect of labor troubles and for
the . proteotioq of the rich, in the
United Mates, "lhere 6cemsto be
but ono remedy, and it must come a
change of ownership of the soil, and a
creation of class land-owners on the
one hand, and if tenant farmers on
the other something similar to what
his long existed in the older countries
of Europe." With this, would come,
as a matter of course, the Europeau
system of elections, with tho restric
tions as to the suffrage. Even in
'free England" tho poor cannot Vote,
unless they have property or house
bold, but even these cannot be elect
ed to Parliament, except in extraor
dinary instances, as it costs all way
from 1.000 to even 3,000 to secure
a seat in the Commons. The land
owners, the lords of the soil, are vir
tually also tho owners of tho con
science ot their tenants, so far as vot
ing in concerned, for tho tenant who
refuses to vote as his landlord com
mands him soon finds himself sub
jected to a species of tyranny, which
the law allows, and has either to sub
mit to it or abandon his lease, if he
be not actually driven from the pre
mises at first. Under such a system,
in this country, there would be only
rich men in the Legislature, rich men
in Congress, rich men in every impor
tant public oflioe throughout the land.
Theu would follow tho "strong Gov
ernment" for which the Radicals want
Grant as a life-long Dictator. A
large standing army, to overawe the
)eople, and to enforce the arbitrary
aws or mandates of the Government,
would be next provided. Then
would succeed the withdrawal of tho
ballot from all who were not property-
owners and free holders. And after
theee preliminaries of the "strong
Government," all that would remain
to the oitizeus, degraded to subject
condition, may be inferred from an
insight into the workings of the mon
archal or despolid croveroments of
Europe: racir vassalage, "wonKi be
secured, and, their only relief or res
cue from it, successful revolution.
But, under the "strong Government"
the authorities would adopt the pre
cautionary measuro of disarming the
subject classes, and making it penal
for them to own or keep arms. It
was done in the South, under the Re
construction Acts; it is done in Ire
land to this day. With soldiors sta
tioned in every district where trouble
was feared or likely to occur, the
decisive treatment of powder and
lead would prove very effectiye. As
for the debased people thus brought
to enslavement by their own rotes
in tho outset, by electing the Radical
masters who used and abused the
power so obtained to tho end accom
plished, they might sorrowful rumi
nate upon their own deplorable folly,
and thoBo among them who rushed to
Radicalism to cfoape the nicrn scare
of Communism, could with their un
fortunate fellow serfs drown their
grief in their own tears, and still suf
fer worso wrongs in their degradation.
Tho frightened deer which fled from
the hounds and rushed into the cave
for security, was thero devored by
the lion. It might haye escaped the
hounds, but it stood no cliauce with
the king ot beasts. The voters who
rush to Radicalism in any form -whether
through the false passage
way of Non -Partisanship, or any other
to csuapo even Kearneyism, of the
two evils choose and aro certain to
fall victims to the worst.
Of Execrable Memory.
A miserable wretch, nearly hun
dred years of age, died lately in the
Comity Mayo Workhouse, ireiana,
who confessed to the Cbapliin and
Doctor that he had aided in the arrest
of Lord Edward Fitzgerald In Dublin
in 1798, and, more infamous still, that
it was himself who served as the ex
ecutioner ot Robert Emmet, the pure
Irish patriot, in 1803. His name was
Barney Moran. Horn in Dublin, he
served as t soldier in the English ar
my, and volunteered for the atrocious
work on the two stated occasions, for
which bo was paid large wagrs. The
infamous Major Sirr selected him, from
bis knowledge of the man. lie after
wards became a wanderer and an out
cast, as he deserved to be, and never
dared to reveal bis terrible secret.
For over a halt eentnry life had been
a burden to him. IIu died a pauper
and bis memory will be rescued from
oblivion only to be execrated. A
centleman who had long known the
awful yart Moran took in Emmet's
death, u still living, but he neer di-
yulzed it during the life-time of the
wretch, and until Lis death it bad re
mained mysttry.

It is cheap fashion in the decayed
and dying Republican organization,
remarks the Boston J'ost, to cay that
the Democratic party is a dangerous
one to be entrusted with power, and
that it will not do to let control of
the country pass into its hands. It is
spoken of si a nest of spooks and bug
shoos to frighten childish minds with.
Anything rather Vhau let the Demo
crats come into power, is the cry of
tho Republican alarmists and watch
dogs. Rotter have a Republican
President by fraud than a Deiuocratio
President by votes of the people.
Grant and a military Government
are bettor. ' Revolution itself is to be
preferred. That is the way a great
many excitable and passionately par
tisan Republicans allow themselves to
talk. They appear to entertain no
higher or clearer conception of the
character or purposes of our free sys
tem of government. How do they
suppose the Democrats are coming
ir.to power except by the will of the
people? Unless they can secure a
majority there is an end of it. Rut
what these Republican howlihgs
mean is that the people shall not ad
minister the Government through the
Democratio party, if they can help it.
That plainly signifies that they put
no faith in the people as the rightful
sovereigns,but believes solely in them
selves. This wild calling on Grant
to help them out means nothing but
the absorption of all the elements and
forces of free government by military
power. And that is the measure of
the Republican ideas ot Republicans.
Thev see with an alarming distinct
ness the certainty ot tho iucoming of
the Democratic majority, ana luey
meet it iu this way. These are the
tactics they have adopted to and prac
tised for ten years past. They have
been sounding alarms all that time.
Iu spite of this the popular majorities
have been steadily changing, and the
Democrats have been taking possess
ion o: one branch ot the Government
after another. They have had the
House of Representatives for nearly
four years, and two years ago they
fairly plectpd thoi KwuJcmu-Tuo
Republican majority in the Senate
has been whittled down to one, reck
oning Patterson and Conovcr in with
the majority. In IS70 tho Republi
ean majority in the Senate was 50,
and in the House 97; in 187?, in the
Senate it was 30, and in the House
25; in 1874, in the Senate it was 27,
and in the House 105; but in 1870, in
the Senate il was 17, and in the
House the majority had become a
minority of 77. In the following
year the Republican majority in the
Senate had dwindled to 2, all count
ed, while in the House the Republi
can minority was 13. Their doom as
a party is evidently sealed. For this
reason ' thev call on Grant to come
back and save them. The country
to-day has got beyond Grant in its
politics. It is preparing lor different
and creater things. As tor the securi
ty of the Federal Union and the per
petuity of Republican Government,
these trouble them nothing. All
thev crave is power: popular rights
may go. They swell with, phrases of
partriotism when they mean only
centralization.
Parii in the Earl Mornin;.
It is an interesting sight to take a
seat on the lop ot a street car at an
early hour in the morning and witness
the cleaning process that overyiinng
is undergoing. The housekeepers
bring out all their rubbish and pile it
up iu the street, one pile for every
four or five bouses. It is no sooner
emutied than the rsz pickers, who
swarm the streets with their bags and
buckets and hand carts, pounce upon
it and gather up all the fragments of
1 . t i- 1 !
paper, rags or raeiai to oe iounu in
the piles, iney are so numerous mat
there is a scramble on every street
and they move from pile to pile as it
their life depended on their activity.
They seem to take away one-third of
the rubbish. Servants are everywhere
to be seen with broom and tucket in
band, cleaniiis off tho fronts. The
streets are being t-prinkleJ with hose,
and an army of men and women witu
birch brooms are sweeping the streets,
On tbe boulevards horse brushing ma
chines are in motion, and garbage
carts are removinz the piles thrown
out by tbe housekeepers. Water is
turned on in all tbe gutters, and wo
men with brooms are cngagea id
washinir them down. Men with hose
are waterinz the roots ot all the bun
dredsof thousands of trtes on the
boulevards, and takinz up the grat
in"S so as to loosen the earth around
them. All, or u arly all this work is
beinz done bv the city authorities,
and by niae o'eloek the city i clean
as broom and brush and water cao
make it.

, Ttllow Fever.
Surgeon-General Woodsworth, ot
tho United States Marino Hospital
service, has written a letter in which
he says:
" The weight of sciontifio evidence
seems to warrant the conclusion that
How fever is produced by an invis
ible poison, capable of self multiplica
tion outside of the human organism,
which it enters through the air pas
sages. In some instances it bus been
carried inland with the people fleeing
from infected localities, but it has
never shown a disposition to spread
epidemically at points remote from
the continuous water-roads ot com
merce, or to lodge in high, salubrious
places. The cities of tho great lakes
have always been free from the dis
ease. Yellow fever cannot be said to
be endemiu in tho United Slates, from
the fact that in some years it docs not
appear, though the imported germ un
doubtedly suivives the mild Winters.
t appears to have about as much re-
istance of cold as the banana plant.
When the banana stalk is killed down
y tho frost the yellow favor does not
recur until again reported. Tbe germ
is transmissible. Il is capahlo of be
ing transported iu the clothing of per
sonal eilects ot passengers and sailors,
but its spread from one city to auotber
is chiefly accomplished by vessels,
their damp, filthy holds and bilge wa
ter being its favorite lurking-plaoes.
Confinement, moisture and high tern
perature favor the multiplication or
irulence of the poison, lellowle
veris uot communicated from the sick
to the well, the sick and well being
angerous only as possible carriers of
the poison cenn or miasm. 1 hough
not sunicienlly demonstrated lo state
as fact, still there seems good reason
to believe that much may be accom
plished by individual prophylaxis, by
the uso internally ot smau uoscs oi
ulphate of quima at regular intervals,
nd ot tincture ot irou or chlorate ot
notassa. As the poison enters through
the air passages it has boen suggested
that the nasal passages be bathed fl
uently with a solution containing

Indian Frauds.
Some intorcstine information in ref
erence lo tho Indian frauds at rort
Staton. New Mexico, has been re
ceived at Headquarters, in this city,
and will bring to light some of the
"ways that are dark and tricks that
are vain ' of Iudian Agents:
An azent of the interior depart
ment stationed at Fort Stanton, about
the 3rd of July counted tbe Indians
at the Apache Agency near the post,
and it wss ascertained mat seven
hundred were abscut; tour hundred
of this number wero accounted for as
being in tho Guadalupe mountains.
Upon this information a party was
sent out to hunt for them, and having
made a thorough earol of the moun
tains was unable to find any trace of
them, and, in fact, saw no camp that
bad been occupied within a year.
From what we nave been auie to
earn there is somclLing wrong in the
management ot the 1-ort Bianton
Apache Agency, and upon investiga
tion it was found that there was about
seven hundred less than were being
subsisted. The fact is, most of the
absent Indians exist only oo paper.
The largest estimate ever made by
men livinz in that section of the
country placed the number of Indians
on the Reservation at uiue hundred,
and of this number, leaving old men,
women and children out, about one
are "fii'htinir" men. This estimate
was madu by a man who probamy ex
airgeratcd the number. At the time
the Indians were counted, July 3rd,
there wero probably more present
than there had been tor vears. as
tbev have been seeking the Reserva
lion lately, knowing of the presence
of troops in the Carizo mountains.
The presence of a company was ro
norted at rort hlanton beioro me
count was made, and, from what can
be ascertained, bv tho very Indians
that were followed into tbe Sacra
mento mountain in June.
A detail Las iust relumed lrom tho
west without finding any trail, and
another party is now oui ib tuo uirec

are tnrniug much of thsir

that Wells and Amlf rson, of the

Urge cotton claims sgaiust tbe Gov

coqnt the vote of Louisiana for the
President candidate who would agree

eminent claims to their list. '
