THE' GREAT PENNOYER.
ScholarlT Effort Bat Devoid " ol
Ex-Governor Pennoyer began an
ress before a large house at the Vogt
last evenings which grudnal ly dim i nisbed
as the evening wore away. . Mr.Pennoy
er is pleasing only as a scholar. He has
the refinement of language of a polished
orator and his frequent references to the
classics and sacred history, , though the
latter was sometimes, adapted . .some
times mis-quoted, showed him to pos
sess the arts and . graces of a trained
lecturer. ..Mr. Pennoyer has the reputa
tion of being more or less demagogic,
and the accuracy of the report was the
most apparent at the -point in his ad
dress when he wiped an imaginary tear
from one eye, as he told of an appeal to
him for work by some, breadwinner's
son in Portland- ' His speech was other
wise disappointing to his free silver con
stituents. -He neglected ..argument for
the subtler passion ; -of -prejudice, and
strove to arrav class against class bv
touching the chords of sympathy, which
though misguided, has been the most
effective weapon of the Populist party. '
The first part of his address was in de
fense of the often discarded policy at
popular elections of free trade. ;' This
was a grave mistake, and one which
Bryan never commits. When he told of
the beauties of free wool, the free, silver
Republicans should have, winced as they
remember how they have ' in' the past
borne aloft the banner of protection to
American industries, have cheered. and
Btamped and' crowed at the ratification
meetings of Grant, Garfield and Harri
son over the triumph of the sole issue of
those remarkable campaigns. But they
did not. 'Those few former Republicans
who were on the platform, bore, patient
ly and with a stolid indifference the
threadbare argument of the free trader,
Pennoyer, when every utterance should
have been gall and worm word to. their
souls. . At times even tbey ' were sur
prised into the inconsistency of cheering.
To what base uses may we all return.
Great Ceeaar,' dead and turned to - clay,
might stop a bole to keep the wind
away."
Finally quitting the tariff question,
Mr. Pennoyer attempted a discussion of
the monetary issue. In Tain the silver
men strained - their ' ears : to ; bear one
comforting 'assurance, one ( argument,
one real," tangible fact, stripped of
rhetorical flourishes, which would bear
the X ray of Republican ' declarations.
Away back into the misty past did, Pen
noyer stray to show how the single gold
standard has disrupted past civilizations
He pretends to find, that this was. the
policy of Rehoboam, who . succeeded
King Solomon as King of the Jews, that
the Populists of that day clamored for
free silver, and tailing, the glory of the
Jewish nation .departed. -forever. He
said Judas was a gold bug, and that his
remorse was occasioned in part by his
not making a gold contract, instead of
taking his pay in silver for the betrayal
of the Savior. And that Christ himself
failed to find. language adequate to con
demn the money changers of the temple
and scourged them from it with the
lash. . This is the kind of pap that Pen
noyer fed to an audience thirsting for
truth. Sacred history is distorted and
d- (.ridiculed .at his, hands to tickle the ear
of the irreligious and the unthinking.
Mr. Pennoyer has an education fitting
him for a gentleman and a scholar. 'It
is disappointing for the Bryan men who
employed him, and who expected to
listen to some argument, to find that he
gave them a lecture of an . idealist, a pot
ppurri from .the classics and .ancient
history, - ' . - - - .
Milk May Cause tbe Typhoid Fever.
When you utant to bay
Perhaps the cause of the typhoid
fever in our midst may be found. in the
milk used by our citizens. It is well
known that milk is more capable of con
tamination than any other product. To
the repeated demonstrations that ty
phoid fever germs find their most con
genial habitat' in milk, and propagate
faster in that liquid than in any other,
may be added the . recent experience of
Cambridge, Mass., and New Haven. In
the former city the prevalence of typhoid
fever, which at one time threatened to
reach the proportions of an epidemic,
has been made the subject of a. thorough
investigation by Professor Sedgwick, of
the -Massachusetts institute of technol
ogy," and. he , has succeeded in tracing
every -case to the milk supply of the
afflicted families. There was a case of
typhoid in the family of, the milkman,
and tie was permitted to continue to ply
his trade, and -eo communicate the dis
ease to his .customers.' In .New Haven
the concentration -of typhoid fever cases
in one section of the city facilitated the
inquiry, of. .the health .authorities, who
found evidence ..which -led them to be
lieve that the majority of the cases had
their origin in infected milk, furnished
by one dealer and boughs by him from
a farmer -in .whose family there had
been a case of the fever. : , Ono result of
the investigation in New Haven is .the
drafting of an ordinance, which awaits
tbe sanction of the, city council,, and
which-provides for the licensing of milk-
venders -and for . an inspection of , the
milk carried by them, and an inspection
also pf .the sources of,, supply with their
surroundings.' . - - -
