WEST SIDE TELEPHONE. “IT IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE." The Official Democratic Paper. M c M innville , F riday , A vovst 17, 1888 National Ticket. CLEVELAND and THURMAN. A SANITARY COMMITTEE. McMinnville needs water works and sewerage before anything else. The health of the people demand it. Now it is prominent before the people that something must be done and that something quick. A thorough inspection of this city by a sanitary committee is requested by the majority of the people. The common council as officers of the Eeople must see that the public ealth is preserved. All outhouses and other germ breeding places should at once be fumigated and all care taken to preserve the health and stop the spreading of all con tagious diseases. YELLOW FEVER. Yellow fever has appeared in Jacksonville, Florida, and it shows the procrastination of the health officers of that place. Yellow fever like nearly all other fevers has been pronounced by medical men a germ disease and these germs are brought into life and activity by filth. There are now eighteen casts of the fever in Jacksonville, and this has at last stirred the health officers into activity. Monday fifty wagons were employed in the city gather ing up garbage which had accumu lated in the streets, coal tar and pitch pine trees, have been burnt and lime strewn in the streets until the town looks as if a snow storm had visited it. This is all for the purpose of destroying the germs of the fever It would have been far better if the health officers had taken these steps before the fever broke out and thereby saved a pan ic and a large number of valuable lives. Now would it not be better if McMinnville would try and clean up the town a little before some dread disease breaks out and car ries off a number of our citizens. About this time of the year typhoid fever generally puts in its appear ance. This fever is a germ fevor and the natural abode of a typhoid germ is in filth of all kinds, impure water, etc. When there is no filth there is no fever, and if the citizens of this place will clean up around their yards, and burn the garbage, clean their wells and do all in their power to prevent disease it is safe to say that no one will be mourn ing for a dead brother, sister, father, mother, who was carried off before their time by dread typhoid and the only things by which they know that these dear friends ever existed is memorf and the grave on the hillside. CAUGHT AT LAST. William Rains, alias Raymond, alias Colby, a Baptist minister, spiritualist medium, gambler and train robber for whom officers of justice have been searching since 1877 has been arrested in San Fran cisco at 45 Sixth street where he was playing the rolo of a slab' writ ing medium. The officers allege that« in 1872 he robbed a mail car near Austin, Texas, binding and gagging the clerk and securing $3000. In 1875, under the name of Rains, lie held a successful revival meeting in Hearns, Texas. While it was in progress a train was held at the depot because of an accident, and the train men attended the revival services. Rains plead illness and was not present. The mail car was robbed of $4000. Rains was arrest ed, convicted and sentenced to four years imprisonment for the crime. In prison he developed all the symptoms of consumption, and was finally pardoned by President Hayes in 1877 and disappeared completely for a time. Subsequent ly he appeared as a slate-writing and materializing medium in New York and Chicago. Last week de tectives located him in San Fran cisco, where they gobbled him. He has lieen through this county as a medium and several of the people of this city remember him. CHAS CROCKER DEAD. No ordinary voter, no member of congress no living man can cast an intelligent vote for a protective tariff covering 41,000 articles or 400 articles. No man can know how much tax on an imported article is necessary to give the home pro ducer of that article a reasonable profit unless he has the knowledge of an expert with respect to that article, and no man can be an ex pert as to a large number of articles. When Secretary Manning asked for definite information respecting cost of production so that he could from an intelligent opinion as to the duties necessary to give a fair pro fit the manufacturers refused to give it to him. They refuse to give it to the committees of congress that frame protective-tariff' bills. The result is that every member of those committees who votes for such a bill has to take at least 99 per cent, of it on pure trust. The ordi nary voter has to take 100 per cent, of it on pure trust. It is simply impossible for him to cast an intel ligent ballot for any protective tariff bill. He can, however, form an in telligent opinion as to the principle involved. He can decide whether it is wise or just to tax the many industries for the support of the few —to tax those who are necessarily exposed to the fiercest foreign com petition for the benefit of those who can be shielded by a tariff from such competition—and take the chances of making some men enor mously rich at the expense of those who are comparatively poor.— Chicago Times (Ind.)
